Huge thanks to readers Emily and Cyndiinphilly for the following photos. Emily found these at her local ShopKo,(where they retail for $3.49) and Cyndi found these at her local Wegman's (where they retail for $1.99). So it looks like these are hitting regional retailers first, but I'm sure it's only a matter of time until the larger chains have this display too (I'm betting they'll pop up at Target first, based on previous Xtreme Wear collections).

And here are some additional photos from Emily.
Let's start with the left side of the display and go over each shade:

Strobe Flash, Rosey Shooter
Strobe Flash, Rosey Shooter
Strobe Flash is variation of the ever-popular black & white matte glitter combo. Rosey Shooter is red metallic hex glitter, white matte hex glitter and white matte bar glitter. I can't remember ever seeing a combo like this at the drugstore before, can you?

Green Rocket, Glitter Gun
Green Rocket is like Rosey Shooter but with green metallic glitter instead of red. I love how fine the bar glitter is in these polishes. Glitter Gun is the same type of metallic-and-matte-white combo except look how HUGE those white hex glitters are!
Frazzle Dazzle looks like a coppery-orange glitter with matte black bar glitter. Interesting and very Halloween-ish, no? I'll be showing you up close-ups of Confetti Punch a little bit later in this post.
On to the right side of the display:

Sea-ly String
Sea-ly String
I intentionally left this photo of Sea-ly String quite large because, at first, I thought this was a basic metallic blue glitter polish. But look! White hex glitter!

Silver Streamers
Silver Streamers
Silver Streamers looks to be a black matte & metallic silver hex combo that also contains sliver bar glitter.

Confetti Cake, Spark in the Dark
Confetti Cake, Spark in the Dark
I'll be showing you more photos of Confetti Cake in a minute, but look at Spark in the Dark! Metallic Gold and black matte hex glitters galore. It looks like there might be gold bar glitter in this one too.
Emily was also kind enough to share photos of all the polishes she purchased from this collection:

Confetti Cake
What a lovely blue, purple, pink and black combo, right?

Confetti Punch
Confetti Punch looks like it contains magenta, purple, blue, green, pink and gold glitters. Fun!

Glitter Gun vs. Glitter Gun
Here's something very interesting that Emily pointed out. Within the same display, she noticed two different formulas for the shade Glitter Gun. Looking at the photo above, it's clear that the bottle on the right doesn't contain the huge white hex glitter that you see in the bottle on the left.
Maybe we should nickname the formula on the left "Big Glitter Gun" and the one on right "Small Glitter Gun" for reference. It would be interesting to see which formulas pop up in different locations across the country!

Glitter Gun, Spark in the Dark
I have to say, I am loving the look of both of these polishes.

Set the Stage (from the Fall 2011 collection), Glitter Gun, Spark in the Dark
Emily included the above photo to illustrate that Glitter Gun is definitely different than Set the Stage, which was part of the Fall 2011 Xtreme Wear Collection (remember, that was the collection that contained the still-talked-about Pumpkin Spice).
Emily also mentioned that these polishes do not contain a sticker on the top of the lid (the name is printed on the front of the bottle though, just like most Xtreme Wears). I think that Sally skips the lid label when the polish is limited edition, but I could be wrong about that. Also, if you look at the pic above, you'll notice the newer cap color (vs. the more metallic caps from 2011).
Have you spotted the Fall 2013 Xtreme Wear Collection in any of your local drugstores yet? I have to admit, I'm pretty darned excited about this one. Are you?
Thanks so much, Emily, for all of the great photos and info (and for letting us know these have landed at ShopKo). And thanks again to Cyndiiphilly for the photo and for letting us know that these have landed at Wegman's!
There'salso a Sally Hansen "Rent the Runway" Salon Effects display. So far, I've only seen it at Kmart, but it has all new patterns. I didn't have my phone with me or I would've taken pics.
ReplyDeleteOmg really??? Thanks so much for the heads-up, Carol!! Hope I can find those soon! :)
DeleteOMFG!! Now THAT'S a fall collection!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I know, right????
DeleteOh man! My mouth honestly dropped. Everything is sooo beautiful! :D
ReplyDeleteWANT!!! Especially the Confetti Cake.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh. Im a glitter girl...so excited!!
ReplyDeleteHaven't seen ANY Sally Hansen new polishes yet. You would think living near a major US city this wouldn't be a problem. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteI actually found the Insta-Dry and Xtreme Wear - finally! Still looking for Complete Salon Manicure. Found Xtreme Wear on sale for $1.99 each - very happy!
DeleteA Mani Maniac: where did you find them?!
DeleteOmg, I love them all! I had no idea the price point was cheaper at Wegmans. I will have to check them out!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of the ones with white glitter... I just wish they hadn't put bar glitters in them! I'm going to have to see these in person, most bar glitters mainstream makers use are way too long to sit flat on my nails, so I tend to avoid those.
ReplyDeleteI have Glitter Gun with white glitter. ( I seen both versions on display but thought I was going crazy.) The bar glitter is actually not bad. Shorter than others I have. Very pretty and applies nicely.
DeleteWow, these are so pretty!! Many of the glitter combos are very Holiday-ish to me. :)
ReplyDeleteThese look REALLY nice! I sure hope to find the display. I thought the gunmetal tops were used for LE and the silver tops were for the regular line. Either way, I'll def be on the lookout!
ReplyDeleteThis is probably the best non-indie fall collection I have seen so far!
ReplyDeleteI have failed you! I saw this display at Duane Reade (owned by Walgreens) but thought you had covered it already. I don't know what shades to get :-(
ReplyDeleteFor any NYers, this is the Duane Reade near Essex & Delancey in Manhattan.
Well, hello, Sally. :D
ReplyDeleteI'm loving the red and the copper. Not a fan of huge hex glitter though, would rather buy polish without it.
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited!!! Xtreme wears are one of my fave drugstore lines!!! All that glitter. Yummy.
ReplyDelete$1.99 versus $3.49 is a pretty big price difference. I'm surprised retailers are allowed to do that... I'll be waiting for a deal!
ReplyDeleteLadies and gentlemen, my wallet has left the building.
ReplyDeleteThese will ALL be mine as soon as they come to Rite Aid, CVS, or Wags.
you and me both sister! :) annnd the drugstore stalking begins!
DeleteI think I may have to own every polish in this collection.
ReplyDeletewowow Thanks!!! I need to check these out ^_^
ReplyDeleteOh no! I am supposed to be on a polish moratorium and this. is. going. to. kill. me....arrgh damn LEs, every time! :) at least they aren't wallet killers if I can stop myself from buying them ALL lol
ReplyDeleteOh, hex!! I have to get some of these!! And I have some $1 off coupons too!!!
ReplyDeleteOmgahhhh I love glitters. Must get this collection!! ^^
ReplyDeleteThese are really nice. I'll need six out of the ten thankyouvermuch. LOL!
ReplyDeleteThey are at my Walgreens in WI today! And $1.99 until tomorrow with the weekly sale.
ReplyDeleteI want this!
ReplyDeleteSpark in the Dark looks like a DL Cleopatra in NY dupe!!!! I NEED!!
ReplyDeleteI cannot find these ANYWHERE near Seattle, WA! I'm dying for "Spark in the Dark" as I'm a HUGE New Orleans Saints fan and must have these for Football season! There aren't any Kmarts or Wegman's in my area- can't find them at Rite Aid or Walgreen's! I did see the CSM Fall display at Walgreen's and bought "Golden Roses" LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteI know for a fact the Fred Meyers in Tumwater, WA has them and it looked like a fairly new display 2 weeks ago. Still lots left so there might be some at your closer Fred Meyers.
DeleteI'm in PA and I haven't found these anywhere yet... I MUST have them, though! I've been looking for 3 weeks now!
ReplyDeleteI just spotted these today at Walgreens in a display up front. Picked up 6 *blushes* and they seem to be going fast as the rack was already half-empty. I got all the colored ones except for the green, red (too X-massy for me) and the plain b&w and silver and black. Haven't swatched for real yet but they aren't glitter packed but will probably layer nicely. The teal blue and purple ones are especially pretty! 3.19 each there.
ReplyDeleteFound them at Ulta in the South Bay (L.A.) today! And Rent the Runway Insta-dri as well. $28 and no will power later...
ReplyDeleteUgh! How did I miss this post?? Just happend upon Strobe Flash over the weekend, now i need the red one and Im sure a few others. So much for not buying any more polish.
ReplyDeleteI just found a bunch of these in a bucket under a pile of halloween costumes at the Lacey, WA Walmart. Plus fuzzy coats and a couple others.
