Purple Pizzazz and Daddy's Girl Comparison

I thought maybe I had a dupe for Purple Pizzazz. Apparently not. I had no acetone so no clean up this time and this photo is color corrected. Rain + no sun = bad pictures.

Both of these are at 3 coats.

Daddy's Girl, Purple Pizzazz, Daddy's Girl, Purple Pizzazz
Outdoors they look very different, but indoors they look very close. Purple Pizzazz takes 3 or 4 coats, has an annoying brush and average application. Not very sparkly. Daddy's Girl takes 2 or 3 coats, has a normal brush and better application. Lots of sparkles. It looks lighter but somehow darker to me. Weird.

The verdict: Daddy's Girl has better application and is cheaper. It also has no VNL and actually sparkles, wow! Now, I'm being kinda hard on Purple Pizzazz and although it looks flat and boring in these pictures, it's really not. It's purty too.

Something else I noticed is, but that's off-topic is that Orly has apparently asked the e-tailers to raise their price cause now they cost $3.75. If I'm correct they used to be $3.18 or $3.50. I hope China Glaze doesn't get all big headed over this OPI sh*t now too and raise their prices. These brands like Orly and China Glaze need to realize that without the e-tailers and the women who blog about them and give these sites most of their traffic, they wouldn't make near as much money as they do. (run on?) I never knew either of these brands until I started my addiction and I guarantee I never would have. Which is a shame cause CG is probably my favorite brand and Orly is really nice too. /end rant

Sinful Colors Shausha

Here's one from my recent haul from Cherry Culture. I love colors like these. Pink or purple with a gold flash, they remind me of a sunset. I can't think of one I don't like. Wait, yes I can. Señorita Rose-alita, sent to me by Transdesign. I didn't order it I ordered Glove You So Much. Maybe that's why I hate it. Anyway, this is 3 kinda thick coats, though for people who don't mind VNL you can get away with 2 coats. It's a little screwed up cause I didn't wait long enough after the second coat. Oh well. Outdoors and Indoors.





A little friend joined me when I was taking photos. Arachnophobes look away!!


I saved his life. He was being beaten down by one of my cats, Paloma.

Sinful Colors Green Ocean over Liquid Leather Matte

My latest mani mattiefied. It's weird how blue the flakies and glitter in Green Ocean turn when you put it over black. I'm sure they turn blue with Green Ocean by itself too. Pretty nice wear outta this for almost the third day. I usually have some major chips by then.

Sinful Colors Green Ocean over Liquid Leather

As soon as I saw Siobhan do this, I went out and got Green Ocean. It looks so gorgeous, it reminds me of China Glaze Meteor Shower. This was 2 coats of Liquid Leather and 1 1/2 coats of Green Ocean.




LOVE!

Sinful Haul and Cherry Culture

I got another haul today this time from Cherry Culture. I got all Sinfuls and a Nyx lipstick that I already posted about. Here's all of them together.

This is the most color accurate photo of them all I think.

Rich in Heart, Lying Nails, Tapping Nails
San Francisco, Green Ocean, What's Your Name?

Kismet Elated, Shausha, Eros

Well this is the first time I've ordered from Cherry Culture and I can say that they delivered pretty slowly for only being from California to Texas.

Also 3 of the 8 polishes had polish caked around the neck and a significant amount of my Tapping Nails is missing. This is the one with the most polish around the neck. It's like it leaked out and they just wiped the outside and closed it back up and said this is good enough quality to ship. I'm not too pleased about that. I know, it's two bucks, but I care. I've heard some shady things about them, so I'm not too surprised about it.

I think I might save these for something like my Diamond nail polishes. Sinful Sunday or something.
