Hello:

I have a question. I am fairly new to polish, having been introduced to it by my roommate by virtue of having inherited her discards. :woot: Anyway, she gave me Pokerface and it was love at first sight. It went on like a dream and lasted nine days with no top coat.

Since then I've acquired some older NARS polishes, with mixed results. For example, Candy Darling is streaky and uneven despite what I do with it. So is Chinatown, which is unfortunate, because I LOVE that color. The application lasted respectably, though.

I understand there are "new" and "old" formulas. Is there any place I can look to see which polishes are old formula and which are new?

Thanks!

Wow! Thanks audrey11! That's quite an amazing collection you have. I see some names I haven't even heard of before!

As I feared I have quite a few oldies. Well, there's only one solution, buy more polish ASAP!

Thanks again!

no problem at all! the newer ones definitely have a much better formula.
