Stash photos: my untried Revlon Street Wear polishes!


A little something different this morning: some stash photos! I only have about a dozen more Street Wears that are actually tried but I attempt to keep my trieds separate from my untrieds. Hence, this photoshoot was only of my untried ones...





















Hope you enjoyed the pics!

wow, 3 versions of grape and gras stain?

hmm- do charming and prince charming look the same? they seem to be holo's or at least foils :D

Stephanie said...

...wow.

Sigh, FX Flash is the bane of my existence right now. Ebay users do not know how to use ebay!

Ahhh such memories you bring back for me, I had so many of these...and discarded them when I needed to move into this smaller space. You've shown here some I'd forgotten I had! I always remember Blood (the darker version) and Gun Metal (not shown) but I'd completely forgotten I had Midas, Forest, Hologram, Groovy and Forbidden. Now I regret giving them away. *sigh* Loved this post. :)

Alisa said...

Wow, what a great collection.

Feline Flodin said...

Awesome! Have to admit I already took a sneak peak @ flickr, though. ;) And I have to ask: what is the difference between the first two Grapes, and the two Grass Stains (except the sticker)? Is the first Grape a little more blueish to its shimmer than the second?

Michèle said...

Awesome collection! Wow @ FX Flash!!

Audrey said...

Untrieds?!? *THUD* I'm speechless!! Jealous, but speeachless!! You go Flinty!! No, really, go!! Go swatch them - ALL!! :-) (I guess I wasn't so speechless after all!)

mKat said...

That second Toad is SOOOOO pretty.

You have a great collection. I'm just getting started :)

Wow what a collection! I really love Flashy!!

flinty said...

@amused: they do look similar but I think Prince Charming is a bit more seafoam green (they both have holo glitter)

@stephanie: I take that as a compliment. :)

@daydream: Seriously, get yourself to Manhattan sometime to the dusty where I found FX Flash. There were half a dozen left when I was there.

@elizabeth: Aww, that's too bad. That's what I fear most about trimming my stash: not knowing if I'll miss certain polishes.

@alisa: thanks!

@feline: LOL, I'm always surprised when I see people following my Flickr since I generally just use it as a holding pen for videos and pictures I post to MUA.
Re: Grape, yes, one is more blue and one is more purple.
Re: Grass Stain, I'm not sure if the sticker is the only difference. I think one may have more gold shimmer but maybe they don't.

@apaige: Yeah, I'm overrun with untrieds. Why I keep buying is beyond me. It's starting to feel like a sickness.

@mKat: It is! I keep on meaning to try it sometime. It's one of the handful of SWs I bought from eBay.

@rmcandlelight: Started collecting SWs?

@Niki: Thanks! I really like the look of Flashy myself too. I wonder how it applies though... ah well, I guess I'll find out sometime.

Oh, I'm so jealous! I love street wear polishes, but only have 5 that i bought way back when... a lot of awesome colors!

Drooling here!

Deez Nailz - Canadas most fabulous hand model said...

wow - this was an awesome post! thank you soooo much for compiling these photos - I know there is also someone out there who has a serious collection of SW photographed.....

Unknown said...

How many Revlon Street Wears do you currently own (trieds and untrieds)?

WizardsOfBling said...

WoW! You must have everyone ever made!

ReaderRita said...

I MISS STREET WEAR! Thank you for this post- it brought back some lemmings... I want Revlon to bring these back!!!! Love, love, love...

Cali369 said...

um, awesome - can you ship that dusty over to the uk please ;-)

flinty said...

@Another bottle of polish: I don't know why they ever discontinued this line...

@shortandsweet: LOL :)

@Deez: Yeah, that's Pretty-Random, who has, like, the ultimate collection of photos of SW bottles.

@Lexelle: I only have about a dozen ones that are tried so... how ever many I posted here plus 12...

@wizardsofbling: Nope. I wish!! There are at least 200 SWs out there.

@ReaderRita: I think the time is ripe for SWs to make a comeback. People are wearing more color and glitters than they have in years!

@Cali369: I'll get right on that. ;)

PolishPig said...

Arrghh, is it true?
200 Street Wears? I'll never get them all.. :-D

I'm so lucky to have a polish hoarding passion, I will never run out of fun.

Bunny Masseuse said...

I only found one of my old SW polishes.. the right most TOAD version you had that sparkles, it was dried up and it was from 1997 (or so I think the copyright on it was) and I had to revive it.

JQ said...

I had a metallic looking Grass Stain, Forest and I think Mean in High school and they got chucked when they got goopy. I never knew about thinner back then. This post made me crazy! I really wish they'd bring them back!
