Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Limited Edition Fall 2011 Swatches (2 of 2)

So here is the second set of the new Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Fall 2011 line. You can read about the first set here. These are the cooler tones from the collection. Like the other colors, all the ones shown here have a really nice metallic looking finish and even have some hints of duochrome when looked at in the right light. They're gorgeous, no doubt about it. The first picture, again, is the entire collection for reference.





L to R: Emerald Express, Teal-y Fast, Grape Escape, Presto Pewter




 Sun




 Shade




Indoors


Top row: Sun, Middle row: Shade, Bottom row: Indoors


So like the previous colors, these apply well in 2 coats, the purple might even be a one coat wonder if you can work your magic with the brush correctly. The first color, Emerald Express borders on 3 coats but it's all just a matter of how thick you apply your polishes. As mentioned earlier, these are currently on sale at Walgreens in a B1G1 50% off sale till Saturday, August 6, 2011. Get them while you can because they are a limited edition set.  I haven't seen all these colors swatched yet so I hope this helps some of you out there =).

Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Limited Edition Fall 2011 Swatches (1 of 2)

Hi guys, today's post is gonna be picture heavy. Sally Hansen currently has a limited edition Insta-Dri set out right now which you can pick up at your local drugstore. They consist of pretty dark metallics that all have a vampy kind of feel to them. They're all really gorgeous. I'm going to break this up a bit since there are so many polishes. This is the first set. I will link you to the second set once I finish that post. Updated: Click here for the link to the second set of this collection. The first picture is the entire collection.  I'll be swatching the vampy reds/browns first.





 L to R: Coco a-go-go, Bronze Ablaze, Ruby Rush, Quick Brick




 Sun




 Shade




Indoors


Top row: Sun, Middle row: Shade, Bottom row: Indoors


They apply really well like most Sally Hansen Insta-Dris. Keep in mind these do come with the extra wide brush so if you have smaller nail beds you need to be careful when it comes to cuticle flooding. These were all done in 2 coats. The last two colors stained like crazy though. Make sure to wear a good basecoat. These retail for about $4.50-$5 but there's currently a B1G1 50% off at Walgreens on all Sally Hansen products until Saturday, August 6, 2011. Get these while they're on sale! Stay tuned for the second half of the set.
