Sally Hansen gift sets are notoriously disappointing. They rarely contain worthwhile nail polishes, especially if they do not have photos of the actual polishes contained within on the packaging. However, the past few months there has been a gift set circulating the drugstore scene that contained a helluva find--a holo jelly! Sally Hansen Hard as Nails Xtreme Wear Night Lights is a really ga ga gorgeous charcoal grey jelly swimming with holographic glitter pieces. It's a real stunner!
You may recall I did a giveaway on my facebook page for this guy (including the gift pack which includes some SH lip inflation glosses) a while back. Well I spotted it and just couldn't let it go to waste so I had to snap it up to give a fellow polish lover a thrill, because I knew my amazing friend G was planning on sending me the exact same set as a lovely present soon. It arrived a few days ago so I immediately had to get it on mah tips! This is four coats, as it is a tad sheer. But look O_O it's sooo pretty! Thanks girl!
This is soooo pretty!

This looks stunning on you! SH gift sets really do suck 99% of the time.
ReplyDeleteIt's indeed pretty!
ReplyDeleteI preffer black over grey holos, but this one is full of holo particles so I love it!
That polish is so pretty. I am new to your blog. I am really glad I found it. I am pretty new to blogging and the only way I know how to leave a comment is by clicking name/ url. I will get our daughter to show me how to do one of the others.
ReplyDeletelooks gorgeous
ReplyDelete@Alicia@ eco friendly homemaking that's no problem, just not in the actual comment - it's a pet peeve (; thanks for commenting!
ReplyDeleteI love this one. I snagged it at Ocean State Job lot solo for $1 LOL. I saw the gift set at Ulta on clearance I should have picked it up. I can't wait to use this one it's beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAhhh, so pretty! I always struggle to find great Sally Hansens, though. :(
ReplyDeleteLoving this color!!!
ReplyDeleteYou probably already know, but did you hear my great news yesterday? Kori xoxo

Ooh this is pretty, it's a bit My Private Jet-ish isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI have this polish too. I got it a few months back in the double packs at Dollar Tree. I got this an a Nail Prism for $1.. score! I haven't worn this yet but I think I will soon. Too bad it's so sheer. have you tried layering it over black? I think I might try that.
ReplyDeleteOoooh this looks like space! Little tiny stars suspended in the dark void of space :) lol. I love it!
ReplyDeleteWant!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you swatched this, I've been looking at it for a while, now I'm convinced it would be a great one to pick up!
ReplyDeleteI just got this in a swap and can't wait to use! Looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteI found mine in a jumbled mix of polish in a bin at Five Below. I layered it over Xtreme Wear Gunmetal because of the sheerness. It lasted a few days longer than other manis usually do on me.
ReplyDeletewoooow what a gorgeous polish!
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to wear this I found mine at ULTA It was on clearance I believe with the lip inflations,I snatched that pretty and I was sooooooooooo freaking happy I had wanted it for so long.
ReplyDeletePrrretty! <3
ReplyDeletePrettyness in a bottle and on your nails!
ReplyDeleteI've been hunting this one, but can't find it anyplace. :(
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty on you!
This one makes me happy! I wonder if there are any other special white-cap Xtreme Wears? Do you know when they switched to the current silver caps?
ReplyDeleteI saw this gift kit for $2 at Kmart but passed thinking that the polish had nothing special and I wouldn't use the plumping lip product (my lips are already more plump that what I would like!) now I hope is not too late to get one of this kits! :(
ReplyDeleteIs this like the old MPJ? I never had it, but have heard the legends...
ReplyDelete@Musings from Manhattan & @Lucy - Beauty and the Blogger i've never seen the original MPJ so i don't know, I doubt it's this sheer tho
ReplyDelete@faerieberry i don't know unfortunately, had to be in the last few years probably?
ReplyDeleteI love dark holos! so pretty!
ReplyDeletethisx is freaking awesome! wantttt
ReplyDeleteI got this one at Ocean State Job Lot for 1.50 a while go, I never used it now I want to!
ReplyDeleteThat is one gorgeous polish. I love this brand for all of their different looks.
