Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Essie Suit & Tied (Ring in the Bling) - Part 1

From left to right: Shape of my Heart (Core), Portia (Spa Essentials), Mixtaupe (As If, Autumn 2017), Tatum (Naturel 3, Spring 2017), Throne-in’ Shade (Street Regal, Autumn 2017), Modern Love (Autumn 2012), Cathy (Naturel 3, Spring 2017), Gretchen (Spa Essentials), Suit & Tied, The Look of Love (Bed of Roses, Spring 2017), Presley (Sophisticates, Autumn 2017), High Society (Rebel Debutante, Spring 2010)

Suit & Tied is far darker and rosier than anything else here – Gretchen and The Look of Love come closest but they’re not super-duper close or anything.

Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Deborah Lippmann Ain't Nobody's Business (Crystal Prism) - Part 1

From left to right: High Society (Rebel Debutante, Spring 2010), Earth Angel (Painted Desert Sephora exclusive, Summer 2015), Joni (Sophisticates, Autumn 2017), The Look of Love (Bed of Roses, Spring 2017), Berlin There Done That (Germany, Autumn 2012), Ain’t Nobody’s Business, That’s What Friends Are Thor (Iceland, Autumn 2017), Elaine (Sophisticates, Autumn 2017), Shh… It’s Top Secret! (Washington DC, Autumn 2016)

The only thing here that’s close to Ain’t Nobody’s Business is Berlin There Done That, which is just a bit lighter. The stuff on the right is too dark, Joni is too purple, High Society is too light, Earth Angel has gold shimmer and is warmer, and The Look of Love is too pink.

Autumn 2017 Comparisons - Zoya Presley & Joni (Sophisticates) - Part 1

Note: I don’t have Zoya’s Jana but I’d imagine it’s close to Presley.

Slide 1:

From left to right: Jill, Cathy (both from Naturel 3, Spring 2013), Shari (Friendsgiving, November 2014), The Look of Love (Bed of Roses, Spring 2017), High Society (Rebel Debutante, Spring 2010), Presley & Joni, Lay Lady Lay (Bed of Roses, Spring 2017), Uptown Girl (Rebel Debutante, Spring 2017), Mary (Naturel 3, Spring 2017),

I really thought Presley and Joni were a bit closer. It’s kind of hard to see but Shari is the lightest thing in this lineup. The two Naturel 3’s on the left are too light (closer to McKenna or Beth without the shimmer), and Mary on the far right is too brown. The Look of Love & High Society are Presley’s closest relatives I have here, The Look of Love is the most pink, High Society is the most brown, and Presley is the most purple. Joni’s closest relatives here are Lay Lady Lay and Uptown Girl, they’re all very, very close. Funny how those three collections (Zoya’s Sophisticates, Lippmann’s Bed of Roses, and Color Club’s Rebel Debutante) all have the same two shades in them!

Autumn 2017 Comparisons - OPI One Heckla of a Color! (Iceland)

From left to right: Afternoon Delight (Afternoon Delight Sephora Exclusive, Spring 2016), High Society (Rebel Debutante, Spring 2010), Candy Shop (Sugar High, Spring 2015), One Heckla of a Color, Faith (Spring to It, March 2017), Uptown Girl (Rebel Debutante, Spring 2010), Coming Up Roses (Bed of Roses, Spring 2017), Tina (Charming, Spring 2017), London (Afterglow, February 2015)

Candy Shop is a slightly dustier version of Heckla, and Faith is almost dead on were it not for the shimmer. High Society is more beige and Uptown Girl is more pink.
