Wet N Wild Fast Dry Collection Swatches and Review

Morning! This post is probably a record for how many pics are included, but I think you will enjoy them. I am showing you all of the current polishes in Wet N Wild's Fast Dry line. There are a variety of colors and finishes...a little something for everyone. I will try to keep it short on words and let the pics do the talking! Let's get started!

Gray's Anatomy- I included 2 pics to shows the duochrome effect. This is a very sheer polish, but could work well for layering. This is 3 coats.



Ebony Hates Chris- a black creme. Perfect in one coat!


How I Met Your Magenta- This is a fun one! A bubblegum pink jelly with shimmer. This is on the sheer side at 3 coats, but not terrible.


FuchsiaRama- Another jelly. Very similar to OPI Houston We Have a Purple. So if you missed out on the Texas sorbets...pick this one up! Here is 3 coats.


The Wonder Yellows- A bright, sunny yellow with a shimmer. This reminds me of an egg yolk. :P Here is 3 coats.


Saved By the Blue- A deep, shimmery blue. Very bright and one of my favorites! This is 2 coats.


9.0.2.1.Orange- A gorgeous shimmer/glitter packed citrus orange. I am almost positive this is a close dupe to Zoya Tanzy. Another standout for me! This is 3 coats.


SaGreena the Teenage Witch- A rich, shimmery evergreen shade. I think this green is very chic and could work for lots of occasions. This is 2 coats.


Teal or No Teal- I see this a more of a turqouise, but it's pretty anyway. This reminds me of the ocean near a tropical island. Sounds nice right about now, right?! This is 3 coats.


Teal of Fortune- This is packed with glass flecky glitter. I think this is also a close dupe for Zoya Charla. Another one to pick up for a smaller price tag! Here is 3 coats.


Sage in the City- A springy grass green with shimmer. This is 3 coats.


Blue Wants to Be a Millionaire- A blue jelly with normal and holo glitter. This is 4 coats, but I think this would be best as a layering polish.


A pic with flash to show the holo. Sort of similar to Milani Cyberspace I think!


Hanna Pinktana- Another holo jelly. Similar to Blue Wants to Be a Millionaire. Covers in 4 coats and great for layering!


Silvivor- A fun metallic silver that's good in 2 coats.


The Gold and the Beautiful- Gold shimmer/glitter packed into a clear base. One coat is good for layering and here is 4 for full opacity.


 Everybody Loves Redmond- This was my unexpected favorite, probably of the entire collection! A super bright red jelly. I was surprised to find so many jellies in this collection, but I am a fan!

Buffy the Violet Slayer- A deep shimmery purple with blue undertones. I think this pic makes it lean more blue than it is. I love purples this shade though and it covered in 2 coats.


And finally, here is Party of Five Glitters. I am sure most of you have seen this one or already own it since it's a similar polish to Deborah Lippmann's Happy Birthday. I have also seen many frankens using this glitter. This is a must for any polish lover!

So what are your favorites? Did anyone pick up on the theme of these polish names? Also, if you want to see any comparisons with any of these colors, I will try my best to accommodate.

These polishes normally retail for $1.99 but starting August 28 to September 24 at Walgreens these polishes will be .99!! No excuse not to pick up your favorites! :)

Thanks to those of you that stuck with me through this long post! <3

*These polishes were sent to me for review.

  12. OMG --- Walgreens has these on sale this week. Only 0.99. What a deal -- 50% off. I picked up 2 on Sunday and just got 4 more today. I got the pinkMagenta, the Spring green, a blue millionaire one and the red today.
    I already used the green and pink. For the price, I love 'em, also I only used 2 coats each and still looked fine.
    I want to go back and get the black and the violet too. My store is sold out of most colors like all the purple ones were gone.
