New Nail Colors: Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear
Happy Hump Day! Hope your having a wonderful Wednesday afternoon! Today I'm bringing you eight lovely colors from Sally Hansen's Xtreme wear line that I picked up.
In Sally Hansen's new display, you'll find around twenty or so Xtreme wear shades marked with a pewter chrome cap. Some colors are new, and others are previous or current shades.
Where can I find these? Check your nearest Walgreens. Since these are brand spankin new, displays may not hit for another week or so.
And, on to the swatches.
Mellow Yellow, a light yellow creme that applied like most normal yellow's. Much lighter than Lightening and Lemon Dash.
Green with Envy, a lime green creme. A lighter version of Lickety Split Lime from the Insta Dri line. A great alternative at half the cost.
Sun Kissed, a vibrant orange creme.
Blue me Away, bright sky blue creme. A deeper version of Brisk Blue that's not as bright. Another great alternative for half the price.
Ivy League is really gorgeous. An apple green with gold shimmer.
Rockstar Pink is a fabulous multi pink glitter. Red, Pink, Purple, Blue glitter in a clear base.
Strobe Light, pink and silver holographic glitter in a clear base.
Shooting Star, very light blue base with green, pink, blue pastel glitter.
Here's an example of the glitters with a black base underneath.
And a few more colors that I just added:
Just Added Celeb City, a foiltastic opaque silver that has great coverage, even with one coat.
Just Added VIP Pink, a sheer light pink jelly with pink and silver shimmer.
Just Added Ocean View, a gorgeous ocean blue with shimmer.
Just Added Red Carpet, an opaque red loaded with red glitter.
Sally Hansen Xtreme wear should be available this week and retails around $2.99/ea. Have a fabulous day!

i was wondering why walgreens and cvs were have a clearance on the old hard as nails line.. they've made a new version! i love the new colors-especially the last pic with the black layered with rockstar pink and strobe light.
do you know if they are big three free?

OH MY! I'm shocked! These are GORGEOUS! Way to go, Sally Hansen! This entire collection (well, at least these 8) are just begging to be snatched up.
And my jaw just dropped at Rock Star Pink-- I swear my first nail polish ever as a wee little kindergartener back in the'80s was that exact glitter combo! I've had dreams about that mix of colour glitters my older cousin carefully applied on my little hands... MUST BUY!!
Lovely! Thanks for the superb swatches!

Wow! There\'s a display at my Walgreen\'s with the new Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear\'s. I see that they changed up the formula of Mellow Yellow (I have the white cap one with the sort of icy-yellow feel, but I want Mellow Yellow 2 (the one on your nails)), and slightly on Gunmetal. I was thinking of passing up Celeb City, but on your nails (and me throwing out my old Salon \'Shooting Star\'), I think I may just get this foil-tastic polish.
I have the Ivy League color. It totally clashes with my skin, but it\'s so beautiful I just can\'t throw it out for the life of me.

I know how you feel about Ivy League. Sun Kissed looks awful on me but it's such a nice colour in the bottle/ on every one else, I keep it hoping that maybe if I get a bit of a tan I can pull it off.

I really want the Silver foil one, underneath the pic of the Celeb City. Is Silver Foil the polish color? Or is that what several coats of Celeb City will do? Great look! Love the colors!

Wow! I have to have blue me away and green with envy!

Thanks for showing us all of the colors! I just bought "Strobe Light" and layered it over a coral color. I can't wait to try it with a black base though!

I am so excited to get them in the mail next week! After seeing this article and what some of the colours actually look like on real nails, I am amazed!
