Shinespark Polish Swatch and Review: Reformulated 80's Neon CollectionPart 1

Hey y'all! Today on the blog I have a swatch and review of the newly reformulated Shinespark Polish 80's Neon Collection. This collection was originally released in March by Shinespark Polish and consisted of 7 colors - Pumped Pink, Radical Red, Outrageous Orange, Yuppie Yellow, Glam Green, Bouncin' Blue, and Psych'd Purple. After receiving some feedback that some took 3-4 coats to become opaque (I'm looking at you Yuppie Yellow and Glam Green), she decided to change up her formula. She recently redid this to add more pigment so they were more opaque and she added a teal color. She also changed suspension bases so now....THEY WATERMARBLE! YAAAAAAS! Who doesn't love a neon collection that watermarbles? 

Pumped Pink, Radical Red, Outrageous Orange, and Yuppie Yellow

I personally purchased the original 80's neon cremes but Molly asked me if I would swatch the newer version and watermarble with them. I was absolutely honored to do so as she is a good friend of mine and I love her polishes! So let's get started with the swatches! All photos are taken inside my light box, the difference between the swatch with the bottle and the swatch without comes from the slight angle change of my hand.

Pumped Pink 

Pumped Pink 

The first polish in the collection is Pumped Pink, a neon Barbie pink creme with subtle micro shimmer throughout. My swatch shows 2 coats with topcoat, no white undie. Look how bright! The formula on this one is a bit thicker than the original formula but I had no trouble doing two thin coats for complete coverage.

Radical Red

The second polish in the collection is Radical Red, a neon coral-ly red creme with subtle micro shimmer throughout. My swatch shows 2 coats with topcoat and no white undie. This one is easily one of my favorites of the collection and has been since the original release of this collection. It is so very bright in person and applies evenly with no streaky spots in 2 thin coats.

Outrageous Orange

The next polish in the collection is Outrageous Orange, a true neon orange creme with subtle micro shimmer throughout. My swatch shows 2 coats with topcoat with no white undie. This one reminds me of those orange creamsicle ice creams that I used to get from the ice cream truck in the summer. Again, the formula on the newer ones is a tad thicker than the original version but they go on easily in thin coats.

Yuppie Yellow

The fourth polish in the collection is Yuppie Yellow, a fluorescent highlighter yellow creme with subtle micro shimmer throughout. I ADORE this polish. I usually stay away from wearing yellows because they clash with my skin but this one is phenomenal. My swatch shows 3 coats with topcoat with NO white undie. 

That concludes part 1 of my two part review of the newly reformulated 80's Neon Collection from Shinespark Polish. I will have part 2 up later this week to show the green, teal, blue, and purple. You can pick up this collection for $55 for the full sized set, $24 for the mini sized set, $8 for full sized individual polishes, or $3.75 for mini sized individual polishes. 

What do you think of indies reformulating existing collections?
