Sally Hansen Pumpkin Spice- A Lemming Satisfied!
Why is it that you always NEED something that you just can't find??? I wanted Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Pumpkin Spice SOOOOO badly from the moment I first saw pictures of it. Do you think I could find it anywhere?? No! Of course not! I went to 6 drugstores in my town, and 3 in various other towns. No Pumpkin Spice. Fortunately, the lovely Squared Nails offered to look for it for me and did manage to find it!
Anyway, this is another awesome black/dark gray jelly with orange glitter. I am loving these black jelly polishes right now (see Wet n Wild Behind Closed Doors)! This is four coats, so you see that this too would probably be best layered over black. For some reason, I don't mind this on it's own. But, don't worry, I will show you this layered over black very soon. I think the orange glitter will pop more over a black base.
I just think the black jelly makes such a smoky backdrop for the glitter. It's so cool in person! Plus, I am just a big sucker for anything Halloween! If you're looking for bottle color, you will have to layer this over black. If you're looking for fun, you definitely get it with this polish!
Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear polishes are available at drugstores. Pumpkin Spice is LE, but many people have found it with no trouble. Good luck and happy haunting! Haunting the drugstores, I mean... Happy Labor Day, by the way!
Most extreme wear nailpolishes I really like.. but this one.. well I don't know I don't really like it this way. But I can't wait to see your swatches when it is layered over black :)
ReplyDeleteIt was the runaway best seller of that collection. I traveled far and wide to find some myself.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been able to find it, either. I want it soo bad though. I hope it comes to my area soon!
ReplyDeleteMelanie- it seems the sheer black jelly look isn't for everyone! But iwill definitely post it over black this week.
ReplyDeleteKimberly- it's been tough to find! I'm glad Squared Nails was there to find it for me! I still haven't seen it in a store around here.
Sarah- I hope so! I can't help thinking that some stores might be holding off putting it out until summer is over. Maybe after today?
I found mine at Walgreens. I was lucky enough to find it at the first Walgreens I visited. I really like it with three coats and over black. It's not my favorite plain but it rocks over black. It's very similar to the Halloween polish China Glaze had out last year...what was it's name? Ick-A-Bod or something. =)
ReplyDeleteI meant 3 coats or over black. ;)
ReplyDeleteI feel like you did. I now want this color & am determined to find it!
ReplyDeleteI went on a wild goose chase to find this polish and finally found it at Ulta this week. It looks amazing layered over black! Looks nice layered over brown and red too.
ReplyDeleteMira- that is lucky that you found it at the first Walgreens you went to!! It is a bit similar to Ick-A-Body! from last year, but I never can get enough Halloween polish LOL!
ReplyDeletePeace, Love, & Polish- It definitely became an obsession! I hope you find it :)
Stacie- it seems like more people have found it recently, maybe they released more? Anyway, glad you found it!
