The battle of the multi-colored glitters!

Ok, I admit it. You got me addicted to nail wheels. LOL This is fun, quick and easy! I am really enjoying doing these comparisons for you!

Today I want to show you a comparison of the multi-colored glitters I currently have. I did at one point have Wet N Wild Party of Five Glitters as well, but I sent it to Canada (along with a few extras) for Rebecca to make more Rebecca Likes Cupcakes.

FINAL VERDICT:

These 3 are NOT dupes! While Ulta PYY and Milani Gems are very close, they still are not identical. Sephora Spark-tacular is completely different. It has three different sized glitters while PYY and Gems only have two. Gems seems to cover better and have a thicker clear coat, while PYY seems runny IMO. It is hard to make out ALL of the colors in these glitters, but I see more blue/green/cool colors in Gems and more red/pink/warm colors in PYY.

Which is my favorite? Sephora Spark-tacular of course! ;-)

Gold OPI Swatches!

My friend Rhonni found an OPI gold glitter without a label at a salon today. Several of us have been trying to figure out what it could be. She was thinking it might be OPI Simply Smash-ing, but I think that polish is too "green" to be a gold. So I pulled out some of my gold-ish OPI colors to compare to it.

See her post with photos of the mystery polish HERE.

I wanted to share this with you as well, just in case you were wondering how any of these polishes compare to each other! :-)


EDIT: Alas, I found MORE gold-ish OPI in my stash!
