Reader bigiyedfish from over at MUA tipped me off about a store on Madison Ave I never would have thought to explore for nail polish, because it's called Fragrance Warehouse Outlet! But sure enough, inside is a HUGE stock of NYX products (the most NYX products I've seen in one place in New York City).
I picked up two colors from the NYX Girls line, because not only did they look fun, they were $1.50 :)
Dreamy Glitter is a goopy polish with hexagonal iridescent pieces, tiny glitters, and *sparse* stars. I was not lucky enough to grab any of the stars. Trying to get one of those stars was like finding Waldo in the magic glitter wand (please tell me someone had this). Stars or no stars, this is a pretty awesome glitter polish.

Swatched over Color Club Who Are You Wearing?
NYX Maven is a turquoise glitter. While there aren't any hidden shapes in this polish, I love the color and welcome Maven to the polish party :)
Swatched over Essence Let's Get Lost
My only criticism about these two NYX Girls polishes (aside from the lack of glitter stars) was the smell and consistency. Each polish had a rubbery texture similar to rubber cement and smelled comparably as foul.
Do you have any NYX Girls polishes?
Visit the Fragrance Warehouse Outlet at 301 Madison Ave (between 41st and 42nd Street).

I don't have any of these polishes, I just wanted to comment and say that I really like these photos; They look GREAT!
ReplyDeleteBooo! Bummer the formula was so thick because that blue is so pretty! You paired it over the perfect blue.
ReplyDeleteWow! I never had a Waldo glitter wand but I want one now! Lol. I love me some Waldo, I even have the game app on my phone! I need to do some Waldo inspired nails for sure!!!
ReplyDeleteI love them both!!And those displays look so yummi!!
ReplyDeleteSweet! Thanks for sharing the tip! I was wondering where to get NYX Girls! I finally got a swap for NYX Girls Dorothy (the DL RRS dupe), but I wonder now if I could have gotten it for much cheaper LOL.
ReplyDeleteI have a bunch of other NYX Girls from a ROAK. Maven was one of them and I love it!
They both look great! I want NYX girl polish pretty bad. I have not found one place that sell them. Online theses polish go for like double that. I was wondering if you could possibly pick some up for me and I can pay you thru paypal. You can contact me thru my blog or my email Carolinem1225@gmail.com.
ReplyDeleteOh by the way I absolutely love how you decorate your pictures on your blog!!
ReplyDeleteWow...those look so cool! And unique! The first combo looks like it can be a Lippmann (think Glitter in the Air over Naked)....can't decide which I like better on you! I have to try and hunt me down some NYX polishes here in my hometown!
ReplyDeleteI awarded you a Stylish Blogger award on my blog: http://moondancerjen.blogspot.com/2011/05/stylish-blogger-award.html

Une Ruxi, yah this display is rockin'
cilucia, this is the only place I've seen them!
Shadow, I haven't set up PayPal or started swapping yet. I had no idea these were hard to come by!!! I'm glad you're enjoying the pics :)
Ommorphia, YES it is kinda GITA inspired.
Thanks so much for thinking of me Jen!!! That's so sweet of you!!!
