Revlon Starry Pink - Expressionists Collection

I passed on this one twice. Once when it originally came out last fall, then a second time when I spotted it in the regular Revlon display at Meijer. Stephanie blogged about it (My wallet wants me to stay away from Short n' Chic) and I was sad I didn't get it. 

So, I looked in every store I went to... Meijer, 3 CVS stores, Walmart... Nothing. Then, I remembered Walgreens. And nothing. I was super bummed, and found a basket of clearance polishes. I was hoping to find something to cure my sad, and I did when I saw one lonely bottle of the original Starry Pink marked down to $2.57! Score!


I really, really love this polish. It is a little sheer, but there is enough glitter in there to make it barely noticeable. This is three coats with one of Seche Vite and it is perfectly smooth. The shade of pink is milky and very feminine, and it surprisingly seems less girly with the glitter. This isn't a five-year-old's glitter. It's a night-out-with-your-friends-in-a-club glitter, but is also tame enough to wear to work if your boss isn't a douche canoe (Holla Bloggess!). All in all, full of win. I'm soooo happy I got it.

  1. Douche canoe! Like it! I'd use it, but seeing as how my boss is a three year old it's probably highly inappropriate. Anyway, I LOVE the polish. I've always liked really light pinks (glitter is a bonus) but they look awful on me. Looks good on you though!

    2. Pam, I love this polish! I bought it after I saw it on KarenD. Interestingly, I still see it all the time here in Chicago. Same with Sally Hansen Glass Slipper, which a lot of people are having a hard time finding now. Looks really nice on you!

    3. Oh Abbie, please don't call your kid a douche canoe! :)

      Thanks, Gail! I really like it and am getting great wear time out of it. I've got some LE NYFW Zoyas that are calling my name though, so I think it might be coming off soon.
