2011 comparison corals with gold shimmer today i am comparing essence what do u think and pure ice twinkle both polishes have a coral base with gold shimmer the base colors are very similar but these are not dupes i have to apologize for the swatch quality i had originally swatched these three days ago but my camera would not pick up the true color indoors and we didn t get any real sun here until yesterday by then my nails had scuffs and nicks anyway here are some bottle pics as you can see the shimmer in twinkle is a lot finer than that of wdut this is two coats of wdut on my middle and pinky and three coats of twinkle on my index and ring fingers as you can see the shimmer in wdut is barely detectable on the nail which was a disappointment because i prefer the larger shimmer particles formula wise wdut was superior it was opaque in two coats twinkle wasn t bad it s just a tad on the sheer side and needs three coats both applied well even with the shimmer tease factor i prefer wdut what do u think lol happy painting labels comparison coral essence pure ice shimmer posted by nail noir 3 36 pm 9 comments wednesday june 22 2011 comparison shimmery pinks today i have a comparison between sally hansen bubblegum pink opi japanese rose garden and revlon temptress each of these polishes are pink with fine silver shimmer you can tell by looking at the bottles that they aren t dupes but let s see how they compare to each other this is two coats of bubblegum pink on the pointer finger two coats of japanese rose garden on the middle and pinky and two coats of temptress on the ring finger no topcoat on any indoors shot the shimmer in each of these is so fine that it all but disappears in indoor lighting sunlight there s the shimmer bubblegum pink is the barbiest for lack of a better word japanese rose garden has a tad bit of dustiness that makes it intersting and temptress is the lightest and most neutral of the three formula wise jrg won but temptress wasn t too far behind bp was a little chalky and hard to work with which do you like best happy painting labels comparison opi pink revlon sally hansen shimmer posted by nail noir 6 51 pm 6 comments tuesday june 21 2011 comparison opi ds extravagance vs ulta material girl today i have two burgundy polishes with rainbow holographic glitter they look very close in the bottle and close on the nail but there are a couple of differences this is two coats of extravagance on the pointer and ring fingers and two coats of material girl on the middle and pinky fingers no topcoat on either extravagance is a little more rich and vivid also notice how glossy extravagance is compared to material girl which is dull and gritty to the touch the scattered holo is pretty much the same but material girl doesn t have that faint orange flash to it like extravagance does my camera never picks up the orange but it s definitely there formula wise extravagance is superior both go on smoothly but extravagance dries to a gloss material girl definitely needs a topcoat for shine and a smooth finish if i had to pick one it would be extravagance but material girl is a fine substitute they aren t dupes but they re close enough that you don t need both eta material girl removes like a glitter polish in other words you might want to use the foil method extravagance removes like any other non glitter polish happy

polishes to compare banana puddin is a creme and it s one of those discontinued shades that s fairly easy to find try dollar tree sunshine sparkle is from revlon s new summer line and it s a shimmer in the bottle the base colors look quite close sorry about the crappy bottle pics let s look at them on the nail this is three coats of banana puddin on the pointer and ring fingers and three coats of sunshine sparkle on the middle and pinky fingers no topcoat on either sunlight as you can see the base colors are not identical ss is a shade darker and a little more vivid bp is very pale formula wise ss wins for me yellows are notoriously difficult to apply and these two were no exception even so ss was completely even in three coats while bp was still a little patchy you can see it on my pointer finger in the pic above if i could only choose one to keep in my stash it would definitely be sunshine sparkle the shimmer is really pretty and it s a tad easier to apply you don t need both in indoor lighting the shimmer in ss isn t noticeable unless you re specifically looking for it i had a dinner to attend the day i swatched these so i painted my left hand with ss and left the right hand as it is in the pics i couldn t tell the difference between the two in the restaurant do you own either of these which do you prefer happy painting labels comparison creme discontinued shimmer yellow posted by nail noir 1 07 pm 6 comments sunday june 19 2011 comparison pure ice purple reign vs opi catherine the grape today i m comparing two smoky purples i originally thought these two shades were close but after reviewing them side by side it s clear that they are not this is two coats of catherine the grape on the pointer and ring fingers and three coats of purple reign on the middle and pinky fingers no topcoat on either as you can see purple reign has a cool base while catherine the grape is more warm and red based the gold shimmer is also different pr has large shimmer particles while ctg has ribbons of gold microshimmer formula wise ctg wins it was perfectly opaque in two coats while pr was still a little patchy after the second coat both were easy to apply and had good consistency final verdict i originally called pr the more outgoing sister of ctg but now i m going to change that and call pr a second cousin lol they aren t even close to being dupes and if you love purple you probably need both i m going to be doing comparisons all week happy painting labels comparison opi pure ice purple shimmer posted by nail noir 11 55 am 5 comments about me name nail
