Target beauty sightings

If you haven't been to Target in a while, there are some interesting things popping up that I thought I'd share with you today. I spotted these products myself over the course of a week, bopping from Targets to Targets in my area, but I have heard from several of you who have also spotted some of these products at your local Target stores, so you should probably be able to find these in your area too!

First up, some Target-exclusives:

Target-Exclusive Essie Spa Collection

(retail: $8.49 - $10.99)

This is a Target-exclusive hand and foot care collection from Essie:

Target-Exclusive Sally Hansen Xtreme Wear Value Sets 

(three full-size Insta-Dri nail colors for $5)

Reader Taylor (@heyitstaymakeup on Twitter) spotted these four Xtreme Wear value sets at her Target and was nice enough to share this pic with us. I also spotted these at my Target, but my store only had the blue set left:

What a deal, right?

I believe that the glitter polish in the middle of this trio is the Fall 2013 Limited Edition shade Sea-ly String. I"m not sure about the two other shades.

Speaking of Xtreme Wears:

I found these next to the Summer 2014 Limited Edition Xtreme Wear matte glitters (click here for my review of those). My Target also had the Summer 2014 Color Foils and Color Frenzy polishes next to these, but I didn't see the Summer 2014 Matte Insta-Dris at my location. 

Here's a closer look at the other Xtreme Wears in this display:

Perky Pink, Blizzard Blue

Perky Pink launched into the permanent line in Spring 2013, so they're just repromoting it here. Blizzard Blue was launched into the permanent line in Winter 2010 (I had to go waaaaay back into my archives to find that post!) so it's odd that they're repromoting such an old shade, right?

Coral Reef, Violet Voltage, Supernova

Coral Reef and Violet Voltage were launched into the permanent line in Spring 2013, so these are repromotes as well.  Supernova became permanent in Spring 2013, so again, just a repromote.

Next up: 

Softsoap The Vintage Collection Liquid Hand Soaps

I had no idea there was a Softsoap "The Vintage Collection" until I saw these at Target this week! There were three scents on the shelf: Moonlight Vanilla, Sun-Ripened Melon and Jasmine Bouquet. 

I can't recall ever seeing these scents before. I'm not sure if these are very old scents that they're bringing back, or if the word "vintage" in the name is in reference to the vintage feel of the labels? I'll try to find out more info! But FYI, this is the exact same bottle shape as the Decor Collection that I reviewed here.

And last but not least:

Vidal Sassoon Pro Series ColorFinity Dry Shampoo in Rich Darks

(retail: $3.99, 4.9 oz)

I want to thank reader @Lori_FTW on Twitter for putting this one on my radar. I had no idea that Vidal Sassoon had come out with a dry shampoo until she tweeted me about it the other day! This one's interesting because it says it's specifically for dark hair, so I'm guessing it won't leave a white cast? I wonder if they have one for lighter hair too? I didn't see one at my Target.

But here's what has me a little bit bummed. Just like the Herbal Essences Naked Dry Shampoo (also made by P&G), this one contains tapioca starch. And as you'll recall, I didn't love the Herbal Essences dry shampoo. My favorite dry shampoos use rice starch to absorb oil (Batiste and got2b are my favorites) and the tapioca starch in the Herbal Essences dry shampoo didn't do a great job at absorbing the oils in my hair. So I'm not sure if I'll end up trying/reviewing this one...if I can get it for a good price on sale, I will give it shot and keep you posted.

That's it for this sightings post! Have you spotted any of the products featured here at your local Target stores lately? Thoughts?

Thanks again, Taylor and Lori, for the pic and info!
