Nothing To Disclose Hey. What's up? Hello. If that opening sounds familiar, you've either read my most recent post or you've listened to my radio show on 91.3 WBNY. Yes, ya girl is also a radio personality. Adding more notches to my resume one gig at a time.

Anyway, remember when I went to  (read: stalked) six or seven Walmarts to find Color Club over the summer? Well, it was a success. Remember when I took a reasonable guess that Color Club would continue to be a staple at Walmart? I was right about that too! Need a refresher? Click HERE.


Unlike the Color Clubs I bought back in August, this collection was found at two Walmart locations near me. It could possibly be in more, but I'm not about to go to six or seven stores to find something that I already found at the two Wally Worlds I frequent the most.



The Meet Your Match Collection consists of 16 nude shades. There is pretty much a nude lacquer for everyone. But I'm the most hype for of the nudes for brown girls like me. Shout out to COlor Club for finally getting a nude nail polish collection right. So many other brands that do nudes don't have the shade range.

With the exception of D.I.D. Nail Paint, there hasn't been a nude collection I was crazy about in, well, ever.


I've been waiting for this collection since I saw it on Instagram during Cosmoprof North America and when I saw this endcap my little heart jumped for joy. While I didn't pick up all 16 shades, I did however, end up coming home with nine of them.



I haven't gotten the chance to use these yet but they will be making an appearance on IG and in the Store Finds highlight.

For individual pics of each bottle, make your way over to @DropOutNails on Instagram.


Nothing To Disclose Are you as excited about this collection as I am? Let's exchange views on nudes in the comments.
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

Yup. You read that right. Walmart (read: select Walmart locations) have Color Club.


Albeit an endcap display and not a section on the shelves next to all the other nail polish brands they carry. Tis access to Color Club nonetheless.


I've known heard whispers & seen pictures from other nail fanatics for a few months now. However, I hadn't seen it for myself until about two weeks ago after work.
By the way, the Walmart location I finally found this Color Club display was the sixth or seventh location I tried this summer.


The display hosts three different types of polish: mood changing, matte neon, and holographic. Each of the types is selections that fit the aforementioned description from a mixture of Color Club collections.
Selections of the matte neons are from Pop Chalk, Pop Play, and possibly other collections. I believe all of the mood changing polishes are from the only Mood collection. (If there has been more than one collection of Mood from Color Club, let me know in the comments.) And the holographic shades are from an assortment of shades from different Halo Hues collections.

What have I been up to in my absence? You know, aside from pulling all-nighters to finish yet another semester? It finally seems like the end is in sight. I still remember my Michelle Obama nails I wore for the first day of school. *awww*

It's September, and before I get into to reviewing fall collections, I should probably finish showing you all the (mostly neon) polishes I bought this summer right? Right.

If you happened to miss part one of my summer nail polish haul, you can still catch it HERE.

Anyway, kicking things off in alphabetical order is Color Club.

Oh how I lusted after these the moment I saw them on the internets. *swoon*
If you missed it, HERE is the nail art I did using all the Poptastic Pastel Neons.


Fair Maiden

I bought these solely because I wanted to see if Don't Be Shy was anything like the original SifulColors Dream On--it wasn't--and there was no point in paying shipping for just one bottle of nail polish, so bought three other colors.


In the Name of Polish

My dedication to nail polish of the neon variety is obvious. Hence, the acquisition of the Hard Knock Life collection. Sadly, both Punjab and Annie's Fro have faded significantly.
At the time of this post I have contacted the maker and awaiting a response. I'll update this post with the outcome.


In the meantime, here's a picture from my instagram of the HKL collection when I first got them.


KBShimmer

These were another collection I was so pressed to have.
When I saw the press release, my little polish loving heart went into overdrive, and I literally counted down the days to their release. By the time the day rolled around I was so busy with work and school that I completely forgot about them (only momentarily). I thought for sure that the collection would've sold out when I was finally home to make a purchase. But alas! They weren't!
Besides ain't nobody got time to babysit a restock. *cough* Pipe Dream Polish *cough*

Peep the nail art look using For Sail By Owner & Leggo My Mango HERE.


Orly

I scored the Adrenaline Rush collection for $9.99 and I believe the shipping was pretty minimal, is not free. Unfortunately I can't remember for the life of me what site I got them from. =(

Pure Nail Lacquer


I can't remember exactly what I paid per bottle, but when I glanced at their site today, most if not all of Pure's polishes are around the $3 mark. Score!


She' Nail Polish

She' is a brand I had been following on IG for awhile and finally pulled the trigger when their summer 2015 collection came out.
If you missed the saran wrap mani I created using these two shades, the post is still live HERE.


SinfulColors

A trip to Walgreens was in order the day I caught word of this collection; moreso because I thought neON and ON would've been a dead on dupe for Dream On. Yet again, it wasn't. *le sigh*
What lacquers did you procure this summer? What collections did you let slip you buy? Let's chat and/or cry about it in the comments.
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

Last week I showed you all the mani I wore in Las Vegas. Today I've got the nail polish I bought when I was there.


I only purchased a total of nine bottles while I was there, but boy oh boy are they pretty. And yes, I did buy a Christian Louboutin Beauté lacquer!

Let's start with Island Girl. Why? Because it was the brand I was the most excited about. Why was I the most excited about it? Because it's only available in Hawaii and Las Vegas. You know what they say exclusivity(?). *Kanye shrug* Oh well.

That time I went to Sephora in Las Vegas... #NailACollegeDropOut #TuneInDropOutLovePolish #louboutin #browngirlbloggers #browngirlswhoblog #buffaloblogger #beautyblogger #nailblogger #nailpolish #ProductPorn

I'm shocked I didn't buy more nail polish, but while I was away my Zoya promo order arrived! Maybe I'll post it at a later date.

What's the largest nail polish haul you've ever come back with on vacation? Buy any high-end lacquers and were disappointed after the fact? Let's chat in the comments!
Tune in. Drop out. Love polish.

Some of you may know that April Sally's has buy 2 get 1 free on their entire stock of nail polish. Being the polish hoarder enthusiast I am, I had to indulge.

I had mentioned in a previous post that my boyfriend gave me $100 to spend on nail polish (if his status as the one wasn't already solidified, it is now). Here's the rest of what I got!
