In my recent reorganization of my collection I realized I have quite an extensive amount of polish from the mid 1990's. I have seen posts on this forum for discontinued products but nothing specifically for nail polish.
What nail polishes do you still have that are now considered vintage? Have you purchased any on Ebay? Is there any that you are dying to get your hands on? I have seen a few blogs dedicated to those real regrets like when you threw away your original Hard Candy Beetle. Are there any you can't believe you got rid of and wish you had back?
I have so many but my favorites are my Revlon Streetwear collection because they helped create the polish monster I have become. I still have these.
(Warning pic heavy, I haven't figured out the hidden pics option yet) Also the water mark on the swatches is from my own blog (I only posted about these and one more set of polishes I own)
From left to right: Splash, Charming, Diamond Girl, Moody and Midnight
From left to right: Toad, Grass Stain, Confetti, Hologram, Gun Metal and Tar

All swatches are 2 coats with no topcoat. I do notice when I have these on my color wheels or any other artificial nail they actually have a white chalky film over top of them. All my Revlon do. I used to have one called Nightmare which was similar to Hologram but with black glitter in it as well. I have seen these go on Ebay for upwards of $25.00. I have back ups of Splash and Charming (which are the ones pictured here). I love the names! Moody and Grass Stain actually have some sparkle to them which I don't remember. Confetti appears to have a tinted base but that could be due to age.
I have more to add later!
