I wish I had seen your review before going to the Dollar Tree yesterday – I picked up three of these glitters there (Hologem, Sonar[green] and Techno [purple]). When I got them home, I figured out the same thing you did about their quality and problems with application. Oh well, at least they were only a dollar a piece.

Hi Taylor,

Thanks for clarifying, some people mentioned that in the comments yesterday. I am so glad they aren’t new because they sure didn’t seem like it!

ok, these are not from a new collection, they are in fact, a rather old, rare, HTF, item(s). I think these may have been released in the 90′s! They are more of a vintage collectible than a wearable polish.

Hi keerthamina,

Glad to hear it’s old because that makes more sense! They are just ick-o-la!

Thanks for the swatches! I do like Hologem, but it’s too bad that the glitter is so sparse in the others and their jelly bases so sheer. You’ve killed a lemming for me, TY!

On a different note, however, I believe those polishes are actually very old Sally Hansen colors rather than a new collection that will be available at drugstores… many girls on the nail board have been finding them at Dollar Tree. Hopefully it’s reassuring to hear that these are older colors… at least SH isn’t putting out a *new* collex with the issues these polishes have!

I feel as if I SHOULD like Radar. But that is genuinely 3 coats????? Could you layer them over other bases? No. Scrap that idea – even the glitter looks cheap and nasty. Big disappointment. Huge.

I have to say, I find these so ugly. They do not compare to other similar brands with glitter. If you can, I would get the money back ha ha…

Keep up the amazing work. We can’t like every colour I guess

Yes, colour has a U in canada

Thank you so much for posting these up. Knowing me I would have had to have them all and then been so disapointed after I got them, plus SH aren’t cheap!
