Vintage Stash Spam Week - Maybelline and Random Drugstore Brands

Hi all! I'm running late today so I have a super quick post for you all today! Maybelline is one of my favorite vintage collections because....well, just because. The short and stout bottles are so adorable and the colors are fantastic. I threw in a few other brands too because they were in the same helmer drawer as the Maybellines! Enjoy =)

Do you have any vintage Maybellines? Any other vintage drugstore polishes?

Thanks for stopping by everyone! I know this stash spam is probably getting a little boring but we're more than halfway there now! Only 3 more days left!

  2. I have a Maybelline Wet Shine polish in Pink Crush and a Wet Shine Diamonds in Into the Sunset. I saw a listing on ebay where Into the Sunset is listed for $14.39 - crazy:-) I should appreciate it more, I guess.

    I also have an Express Finish in Tiger Eyes, and an Ultimate Wear in Pink So Sweet. I seem to remember the Express Finish polishes chipping on me badly.

    1. Awesome! Yes definitely appreciate your old Maybellines, they are quite rare and often $$$ these days. Yeah, the Express Finish polishes don't exactly have the greatest formula but they seem to wear pretty decently on me with a good top and base coat combo =)

    1. The Smackers polish is so fun, I had been looking for one forever! Girllll I have more Bonne Bell polishes on their way to me, you are going to pass out when you see them!! LOL! Red Comet is awesome, but it's pretty much just a Ruby Pumps dupe. Still a great addition to the collection though!

  11. OMG SILVER LILAC! That was one of my first nail polishes back in the early 2000's. The colour was so cool!

  12. I know this is an old post, & that this is a long shot, but does anyone know of a current polish (as of October 2017) that is similar to Maybelline Mandarin Mars??? I'm trying to bring my old bottle back to life from a glitter sludge, but I just adore it. I'm thinking about trying Frankening to try to re-create it! Thank you so much!!!
