Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Essie Gel Couture Jade to Measure (Gel Couture Holiday 2017) - Part 2

From left to right: Agro (Hunger Games, Spring 2012), My Gecko Does Tricks (Hawaii, Spring 2015), Rikki (Irresistible, Summer 2013), Gemini (Zodiac, June 2016), I’ll Take Manhattan (New York Marquee, Autumn 2014), Jade to Measure, All Hands on Deck (Shimmer Brights, Summer 2016), Giovanna (Satins, Autumn 2013), Cher (Emerald for May, May 2015), Running in Circles (Cirque Du Soleil, Holiday 2012), Priscilla (Emerald for May, May 2014), If I Ruled the World (Her Majesty, Holiday 2016), Mercer (Sparkling Sights, Holiday 2016), Laughin to the Bank (Jewel Heist, Autumn 2013), Cuckoo for this Color (Swiss, Autumn 2010), Emerald Fitzgerald (Vintage Vixen, Autumn 2010)

Nothing really is that close to Jade to Measure – it’s darker and less chrome-y than I’ll Take Manhattan, darker than All Hands on Deck and warmer than Giovanna.

Comparison with Jade in Manhattan (Oil Slick, Summer 2016) – I thought these were closer. I was wrong.

Spring 2017 Comparisons - China Glaze Don't Teal My Vibe (Spring Fling)

From left to right: I’ll Take Manhattan (New York Marquee, Autumn 2014), Teal the Cows Come Home (Brighter by the Dozen, Summer 2006), Beauty & the Beach (Fiji Fling, Summer 2006), Don’t Teal My Vibe, Trophy Wife (Dive Bar, Holiday 2011), Giovanna (Satins, Autumn 2013), Selene (Paradise Sun, Summer 2015), Rule Breaker (Wild at Heart, Autumn 2009), Emerald Empowered (Spring 2014), Paulina (New York Never Sleeps, October 2015), Watermelon Rind (Summer Days, Summer 2009)

Watermelon Rind is a glass fleck, it’s a similar color, but not finish. Likewise I’ll Take Manhattan is a chrome and has a lot of silver and is still a little lighter. Teal the Cows has less green, Paulina and Emerald Empowered are darker. Rule Breaker is more green, Selene and Giovanna are brighter, and Trophy wife has less blue in it. Beauty & the Beach is by far the closest. It’s a bit more blue, but you don’t need both.
