Reader Emi of Project Swatch recently visited a Walgreens that had one of those fancy new nail bars (like the CVS Nail HQs). I'm not sure how many Walgreens locations have these fancy new nail bars but lucky for us, Emi shared some pics of the entire newly-reformulated Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure polishes, and another little surprise. (By the way, this partial display is currently surfacing at Walgreens locations that don't have nail bars.)
First of all, did you know that there's at least one Deborah Lippmann dupe in the newly-reformulated CSM line? Yup. Any guesses which polish below is the dupe?

I"ve mentioned before and Emi confirmed that some of the polishes in this collection were part of the original Complete Salon Manicure collection (but may have different names), and there are new glitters and other new shades as well.
Emi also spotted something I've never seen at a Walgreens before--Bonita polishes for $0.99 each:

If you're lucky enough to live near a Walgreens that has a fancy nail bar, then maybe you'll be able to find these Bonita polishes too!
Have you spotted the full selection of the newly-reformulated CSM polishes in your area yet? Thoughts?
Thanks so much, Emi, for the great dupe alert and pics!
Oh my goodness! This is amazing! I love the Complete Salon Manicure line and I've been wanting Across the Universe forever. That dupes just made my life! Hopefully I'll get one of these in one of my nearby Walgreens! Thanks for the heads up!
ReplyDeleteI think Walgreens is putting the new nail bar in all new stores. I live in the LAST place you'd expect to find one, but Wags just opened a store in the last week or so. It has a nail bar and a totally restyled HBC area. Only Essie and SH CSM were on display, though. The other side was filled with holiday gift sets.
ReplyDeleteThere was also a new in-line Sinful Colors display. It had a lot fewer shades than the under-the-beauty-counter display, but this was a very small and new store.
Hum....not so sure about that. A Walgreens JUST opened here less then three weeks ago and no nail bar (it's a smaller store like you described, with the same SC display).
DeleteOh, and for those of you looking for a Hidden Treasure dupe - there was one shade, Deb-u-tint or something, that looked interesting. In the bottle I could not honestly tell if it was just a shimmery clear polish or flakies
ReplyDeleteOooo that nail bar looks like candy! So pretty.
ReplyDeleteAny chance we can get a map of the Walgreens with fancypants nail bars?
ReplyDeleteI have some of those and they are quite nice.
ReplyDeleteOoh, they both look gorgeous! I would probably be most likely to try out the duochrome--somehow big glitter at my age just seems a little silly. It is pretty enough to tempt me into thinking otherwise though!
