This year, NYC added several new shades of nail polish to its lineup in both the 99 cent Long Wearing nail polish line and the $1.99 Quick Dry nail polish line. They’re some of my favorite polishes – uniformly good quality, not to mention cheap! During various sales, I’ve purchased quite a few polishes from each line. Today, I have swatches of 17 of the 28 permanent Quick Dry polishes for you, and I’ll have swatches of the other line in a separate post.
You can see a list of all the available colors on the -->NYC website --> – 27 colors plus Grand Central Station, which is clear. It’s my favorite inexpensive topcoat – I’ve gone through a couple bottles.
First, the bright cremes:
NYC Quick Dry polish – bright cremes
This is a very image heavy post – the rest is behind the cut!
Columbus Circle Crimson // Madison Avenue // Spring Street
Lexington Yellow // High Line Green // Water Street Blue
Manhattan // MOMA // Times Square
Madison Avenue (swatched above) is a true red, while Times Square is slightly lighter orangy red. I should have swatched them side by side!
The neutrals:
Prospect Park Bloom // Fashion Safari // Park Ave // Brownstone // Sidewalkers
Prospect Park Bloom is sheer.
And the frosts / shimmers:
Mulberry Street // Bower Street // Precious Peacock // Precious Peacock over black
I also own some limited edition colors, and you can see swatches of them in the following posts:
NYC Python Green – one of my favorite nail polishes of all time!
NYC Let’s Paint the Town Collection – includes Raindrop, Apple Fizz, and Shimmer Blast.
(I took these photos months & months ago, I’m glad I’ve finally posted the swatches!)
