New Sinful Colors Display: Go Plaid

Okay, so this popped up at my Walgreen's this weekend:

Four stripers and four polishes: Amethyst, Courtney Orange, Envy and Ruby Ruby - in order from left to right in my photo. The only one I've never seen before is Amethyst, which is a mid-toned purple - can anyone confirm if it's new or is it a repromote? It's definitely not in the Sinful Colors core display.
Envy, the green that I fell in love with from the Beverly Hills display, has made a reappearance here, so if you didn't snag it before, you will hopefully be able to pick it up again.
However, I want to tell y'all something weird: there are probably four Walgreen's in my area. In one of them, this display had all of the green polishes labeled as Ciao, Bella! - which is, of course, the name of a sparkly deep blue Sinful Colors polish. I was quite confused by that!

Sinful Colors Summer Neon Display!

Okay guys, for anyone interested - I've got a photo of the new Sinful Colors summer neon display I was talking about! I'll post it, and then talk about the colors.

You can click to make this bigger, if you like. If for any reason you would like to view an even bigger image, just let me know. This is of course taken in artificial light with flash. Without was just too dark!

So the colors, left to right are: Dream On, Pink, Neon Melon, Summer Peach, Irish Green, Fusion Neon, and Cream Pink. The ones I know for sure are repromotes are Dream On, Irish Green, and Cream Pink. I *think* that they might have had a version of Neon Melon before, but I'm not 100% so if anyone can verify? That would be awesome!

The stripers, I didn't check to see if there were names for them - but they're definitely the striper version of the polish colors displayed. There are more colors behind the front row, so there's a neon yellow, neon orange, neon pink, neon green, neon purple. I *think* that's the extent of the stripers. There may have been a couple shades of neon pink, I didn't look too deeply.

These were in an endcap type display at Walgreen's, as you can see - right next to the core line display!

I hope that you guys find this helpful. 

EDITED: Special thanks to Madeline for letting me know about Neon Melon, she says she'd purchased it two years ago from Cherry Culture! So I was right, it's definitely a repromote.

Sinful Colors Updates and Fly Away

Okay, so a swatch and some information gathering in this post. I haven't seen this anywhere on my usual reading list, so I thought I'd go ahead and pass on what I've got.

I'm a big Sinful Colors fan. They're $1.99 (USD) at Walgreen's, and now they're becoming more readily available at Rite Aids, although their display is considerably smaller than the Walgreen's core display section. Of course, you can now order them at Cherry Culture - sadly though, the Cherry Culture site doesn't have greatly accurate color drops. I digress, obviously!

They're cheap, they're big-3 free, and they have some pretty great colors and a mostly decent formula (there are some misses, but for the price...), I like the brush and the wear is decent.

So I get excited when I see displays. Often times, they have repromotes in the displays. However, this week I have spied a new display - Tropical Ecstasy, pictured below - that has a few new-to-me colors, along with some from what I'd consider the core line.

Pictured left to right, the colors are: Happy Ending, Fly Away, Fiji, Cloud 9, Cream Pink, Gorgeous, Big Daddy, and Let's Meet. As near as I can tell, Fly Away and Big Daddy are new? I think Gorgeous is relatively new as well.

I have also spied some new additions to the core display in Walgreen's. Below are the ones I've picked up - left to right, Hazard, Savage, Unicorn, and Nirvana. I think there are a few more, as well.

Hope someone finds this helpful/interesting for you Sinful Colors fans!

Also, I had heard that Pearl Harbor had been discontinued. For those of you still on the lookout for it, check your local Rite Aids - I found three bottles still leftover in one of mine! You can bet I picked those up, I love it for layering.

Okay. Enough news, I'll show you my swatch of Fly Away. Seriously, I was so in love with this color upon first swatch that I went and bought a backup, in case it goes away. This is two coats, and although I did use a top coat, it was shiny without one! It's bright and made of win. Maybe a tad deeper blue than pictured here, though. My camera freaks out on some shades of blue. I'd call this a jelly creme, so you know I love the finish. It applied like a dream, better than some so-called high-end formulas I've tried.

As you can see, I not only broke off my index finger nail this week, but I got an "owie" on my pinky. Dammit. Luckily my nails grow exceptionally fast, but this has been a horrible winter for my skin and cuticles, I can slather and slather my hands in lotion AND use cuticle oils faithfully, and still I get tears pretty easily. I'll be glad when it gets warmer.
