Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Deborah Lippmann I Won't Dance (Crystal Prism) - Part 1





From left to right: Venus Was Her Name, Millie (Charming, Spring 2017), Dressed to the Nineties (As If, Autumn 2017), I Carol About You (Gwen Stefani Holiday, Holiday 2014), I Won’t Dance, Prima Donna (A Night at the Opera, Autumn 2013), Glamcore (Street Regal, Autumn 2017)

I Won’t Dance is surprisingly close to Prima Donna – The shimmer is a tiny bit different but they’re extremely close. I Carol About You is similar, but the finish is different, I Carol About You is a purple crème with pink shimmer.

Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Zoya Blake (Party Girls) - Part 1







From left to right: Venus Was Her Name, Paula (Countdown, December 2014), Turn on the Northern Lights (Iceland, Autumn 2017), Dressed to the Nineties (As If, Autumn 2017), Blake, Delia (Diamonds Forever, November 2016), Songbird Serenade (My Little Pony, Summer 2017), Darcy (Future Fresh, January 2017), Groove Thang (Dance to the Musique, Autumn 2008), Prima Donna (A Night at the Opera, Autumn 2013), Under the Stars (Coastal Crush, Summer 2017), Scandalous Shenanigans (Autumn Nights, Autumn 2013)

I did an extra close up shot of Blake and Delia to show that they are actually rather close. Their shimmer isn’t exactly the same but they’re definitely the same idea and mostly the same execution too. Dressed to the Nineties is different but it’s something fans of Blake would enjoy. Songbird Serenade has a vastly different shimmer and a black base instead of a blue one but again, similar.

Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Zoya Delaney (Party Girls) - Part 1





Okay, I either forgot Rodeo Fanatic was blue or overestimated how strong Delaney’s blue flash is.

From left to right: Rodeo Fanatic (Rodeo Diva, Autumn 2008), Glamcore (Street Regal, Autumn 2017), Dressed to the Nineties (As If, Autumn 2017), Delaney, Groove Thang (Dance to the Musique, Autumn 2008), I Carol About You (Gwen Stefani Holiday, Holiday 2014), Prima Donna (A Night at the Opera, Autumn 2013), Marta (Future Fresh, January 2017), Dora (Stroke of Midnight Mystery Box, December 2016), Venus Was Her Name

Groove Thang is actually pretty close, albeit a bit darker, but if you have that one lying around you don’t need Delaney. Dressed to the Nineties is different but if you like one you’ll like the other.

Autumn 2017 Comparisons - Essie Dressed to the Nineties (As If) - Part 2





From left to right: Yasmeen (Provocateur, Summer 2006), Let’s Groove (Retro Diva, Autumn 2009), Velvet Rope (Hot Stuff, Summer 2007), Sexy Divide (Winter 2008), Juno (Utopia, Holiday 2007), Dressed to the Nineties, First Class Ticket (Vintage Vixen, Autumn 2010), Teen Spirit (Rebel, Autumn 2016), Cosmo with a Twist (Starlight, Holiday 2015), Mariah (New Year Fresh Look, January 2016), Maggie (November 2011), Sagittarius (Zodiac, December 2016), Haute Tub (Virgin Snow, Holiday 2015), Sansa (Ignite, Autumn 2014), Frock n Roll (Leggy Legend, Autumn 2015)

Again, Dressed to the Nineties’ green shimmer stands alone. Now I put it next to Juno because Juno in person does have a really nice green flash too, it’s just very different from Dressed to the Nineties. It’s way warmer and more of a true duochrome than a base with shimmer. Everything else is a whole other animal entirely.

Autumn 2017 Comparisons - Essie Dressed to the Nineties (As If) - Part 1




From left to right: Dora (Stroke of Midnight Mystery Box, December 2016), Paula (Countdown, December 2014), Prima Donna (A Night at the Opera, Autumn 2013), Dressed to the Nineties, Turn on the Northern Lights (Iceland, Autumn 2017), Groove Thang (Dance to the Musique, Autumn 2008), Songbird Serenade (My Little Pony, Summer 2017), Totally in the Dark (Spring 2013)

Nothing else has Dressed to the Nineties’ green shimmer. Turn on the Northern Lights was probably released to compete with Dressed to the Nineties, but it’s way different. Nothing else is even kind of close.
