Chanel Dupe and Vacation

Hey guys! Just wanted to let you know that I'm taking a much needed vacation and most likely won't be around to blog, answer email or check Twitter. I won't be gone long- probably about a week- but I didn't want you to see me stop posting and emailing and think I got abducted by aliens or something.

I'll probably schedule some random picture spam to go up while I'm not around just so it's not so lonely here.

And before I leave, I wanted to put up another picture I've been wanting to post for months!

Index: Chanel Kaleidoscope
Middle: BB Couture For Nails Blind Love
Ring: Chanel Gold Fiction
Pinkie: Sephora by OPI Charge It!

As you can see, Charge It! and Gold Fiction are not as similar as I had hoped- the texture/finish and application were very similar but the shades are pretty far off.

However, Kaleidoscope and Blind Love are near-exact duplicates. There is very little difference between these two polishes. I even did a wear test- alternating the shades on each finger and wearing it for a day- and I couldn't tell the difference. The subtle differences between them are that Kaleidoscope is ever so slightly more sparkly and Blind Love has just a touch more of a yellowy-green tint. Not enough for me to even notice when wearing them both at the same time.

Kaleidoscope is long gone, but as far as I'm aware, Blind Love is sticking around for a long time. And about one quarter the price.... Wears better, too.

My first Barry M polishes!

Another post I have been meaning to do for a long time!

Nail-blogging British friend of mine Helen surprised me on my birthday with a package that included some awesome Barry M polishes. There was some Illamasqua and a really kickass Barry M eyeliner as well, but those are for another post!

Thank you again so much for this amazing gift! I love everything.

284 Emerald Green. This is a light emerald shade with tons of shimmer. It's in between frost and metallic. Very shiny, kind of reflective and sparkly at the same time. It applied so smoothly, with only a hint of visible brushstroke.

299 Racing Green. A rich dark green with blue overlay... It's sort of duochrome, but you can see both colors clearly all the time. It's kind of like green underneath and blue on top! Is it green shimmer in a blue jelly base? Such a cool polish. It reminds me of Bloom Bianca, but this seems darker. Very similar feeling to the two polishes- aquatic, mermaidy, rich and botanical. Like leafy dark green seaweed in deep blue water!


I love these polishes a lot! I don't know if I can even get Barry M here- I've heard they have a website you can order from, but I've also heard stories of bad customer service when ordering from them, so I won't post the link. However, if you are in the UK, these are probably readily available to you, so go check out these gorgeous greens!

Ulta Professional Green With Envy

Ulta Professional Green With Envy

This is so gorgeous, I don't even know what to say about it. It's too nice. It's too perfect.

It's a very dark blackened yellow-toned green shimmer. As much as I love green, I'm really very disappointed with all of these strongly blue-toned greens that have come out recently. I feel like they lack a certain richness... Like they're watered down green. This particular polish does have a slight blue undercurrent, but it's yellow enough to make me happy.

The first green polish I ever owned was a little like this. Super dark, a little yellow toned. I still have it, even though it's half empty and I'm too scared to use it for fear of somehow ruining it or finishing it. Maybe that's where my love of blackened yellow-toned greens comes from. And then when Zulu came along? Heaven. Bonus points to anyone who knows what that first dark green polish is... Scrangie trivia! Hahahahaha!

Anyway... Ulta Green with Envy. I do have two complaints about it. First, the name. Green With Envy? Are you kidding me?! You couldn't come up with anything better than that? That's one of my peeves. Every green polish being named Green With Envy or Envy or something related to that phrase, and every red polish with glitter being named Ruby Slippers or some variation. Creativity... [Do you need it?] [You can have this.]

My second complaint is the formula. It was kind of sheer and maybe a little watery. I needed to use three coats. I hate it when companies slap the word 'professional' on polish. Like Sinful... yeah... no. Professional my ass. Okay, back to the Ulta polish. The brush was a little strange shaped and the vanity cap was hard to remove as well. So this polish isn't entirely perfect, but the color is definitely worth any trouble I may encounter in the formula or brush.

I hope Ulta keeps making cool polishes like this. There were some other cool looking blackened colors on the display, but they looked *too* black so I didn't grab 'em. The only other Ulta polishes I own are glitters, which I also love, but they were limited edition Christmas type things. Maybe I'll post those one day!
