Revlon Street Wear - Monster Mash

Oh, hey, it's Tuesday.

May the Fourth, Cinco de Mayo and all of that! I played Lego The Hobit for most of the weekend and volunteered with my best friend at a food bank yesterday. We did, however, go to a pretty excellent Mexican restaurant after so I guess that kind of counts.

Oh, hey, the mailman's here and it's only 10:30am.

I don't remember from where or at what age I procured a certain Street Wear Monster Mash, but I had it, and now I don't because I sold it. Because I hadn't worn it for about a hundred years. But now I kind of regret it. I swatched it a while before putting it up for sale and was like 'oh, this is neat, but I won't wear it on the reg'.  And now I kind of miss it.

I took a bunch of pictures of it. It's from the 90s, it's green, and is glittery. It's, like, a full-coverage glitter. I'm pretty sure this was only three thin layers over nothing. Nothing but nailz. Also it's pretty much impossible to find, I guess. I saw one that was auctioned on British eBay for $62. I didn't sell it for close to that much because a.) evap and b.) I painted the bottle handle with other nail polish years ago and when I was cleaning it off with polish remover it started smudging the ink of the label off. Such lame. I also had Costume Party (which I didn't swatch before selling :/) and still have Black Widow and I kind of feel like maybe they were sold in a set together.

Oh, hey, also this polish is the only example of the use of bar glitter than doesn't make me puke in my mouth.

So anyway, here's six of those pictures I was telling you about:

Sooooo, yeah. I probably would have worn this again, actually, now that I'm staring at these pictures. I mean, I'm glad Monster Mash has gone to somebody who will love him. I liked him all right in a sentimental way, but I didn't really treasure his full value. If you love a polish, let it go...

We just weren't that close, you know? But maybe we could have been. Maybe I should have just given him a chance.

Hey, so I've been writing this while listening a conversation going on and I'm not even going to reread it because I'm sure what I've written is absolutely brilliant. I'm, like, 101% confident.

The Unknown Street Wear Mystery Color [Diamond Girl]

EDIT, YA'LL: Thanks to THIS fabulous website and its Street Wear flippin' library, I have discovered the name. It's called Diamond Girl. MYSTERY SOLVED. OUT.

Howdy.

I don't remember when or where I picked this polish up. I don't feel like I was ever the kind of girl to be like "ooh, baby blue with see-through rainbow glitter!" But apparently I was. Or it was sold with other polishes that I liked. Or I stole it from one of my friends. Who knows? Regardless, the sticker on the top that said what the polish name is has been gone for ages and I can't find anything online about what it's called.

The illusive

So, yeah. That's what it looks like. It's this gritty light blue with a crap-ton of opalescent (is that what it's called even?) [EDIT: IRIDESCENT, DOY] hex- and micro-glitter. I should probably swatch it at some point.

A la flash

The light blue is somewhat present on the nail but it's not, like, a jelly or anything. It's textured almost like it would be glow in the dark, but it's not. That'd be sweet though.

dem glitterz

It's one of those polishes that I've had forever but haven't really paid any mind to. I'm pretty sure I've never worn it, actually. Except for right now, there are two coats on my left thumbnail so I could describe it better. I guess I could take a picture of it so you can see, but there's almost pizza here. Pizza.

Anyway, if you or someone you know knows what this polish is called, please tell me. I would quite like to know. Much obliged!
