Hey guys, to make up for my pictureless uber ranty rant rant from Monday, I figured that since I had already done the old Urban Decay thing, I might as well show you all my old Hard Candy polishes.

While I only have a handful of 2nd Issue Urban Decay polishes, I have an ENTIRE HELMER DRAWER full of old Hard Candy polishes. Back when I was throwing a lot more money around on this hobby of mine, I was doing a fair amount of shopping on Yahoo Japan, and I ended up finding a pretty stacked source, which I bled completely dry. My collection is by no means complete, I still have a whole list of polishes that are on my “must find” list, but I definitely own more than half of the original square bottled Hard Candy line.

Hard Candy nail polish saw a number of redesigns over the years, from the first change – a subtle change from white caps to silver caps, to the second change – moving from square shaped bottles to taller, wider, rectangular shaped bottles after which Hard Candy discontinued their polish line only to return in 2009 with a makeup line exclusively for Walmart. But we’ll cover more on that in my part 3 post.

Here are a few pics I dug out of my flickr, for your viewing pleasure. These are old photographs – I’ll try and pull everything out in the coming days for some lightbox photos.
