Let's Go Way Back! Revlon StreetWear Lipstick and Polish

Today, while browsing a local discount store, I spotted a bin or random makeup items. At first glance, this bin looked like nothing I would be interested in, but the sign screaming "3 ITEMS FOR $1.00" enticed me to look more closely.


Imagine my surprise when I noticed a few old lipsticks that looked familiar poking out of the pile inside....
Revlon StreetWears!!

 
I'm not sure of the exact date that StreetWear was discontinued, but I remember wearing these products in the mid-late 1990's. 

These are the lipsticks I found, still in the shrink wrap!
Heartless, Jelly, Cafe, and Juicy.

Finding these today made me want to share the 2 Streetwear polishes that I own. 
Groovy and Grape.
Groovy is holographic bar glitter in a clear base. 
Grape is a dark metallic purple with light blue shimmer.


I can remember shopping from full displays of these, and having shoe boxes full of them. I wasted most of those wonderful polishes painting random items when I was a bored teenager.
Maybe one day I will be lucky enough to find StreetWear polishes in that bargain bin....I do miss them so.

  1. I had a few Street Wear nail polishes that I foolishly threw away as a teenager being forced to clean out bathroom drawers... Anyway, I'm a new follower and just wanted to let you know that I'm enjoying your blog so far!

    1. If you're still looking for dupes of these, NYX does very similar colours. Worth a look. :)

    1. Try the NYX range. I finally found a dupe for a streetwear lipstick after 15 years. Hope that helps. x

  5. Just to let anyone looking know Streetwear Revlon Juicy now has a dupe!!!
    'Moonwalk' by NYX is pretty damn similar, I mix mine with NYX 'Brooklyn Thorn' and it is perfect!
