Autumn 2017 Comparisons - OPI Turn on the Northern Lights (Iceland)

From left to right: Give Me Space (Starlight, Holiday 2015), Scandalous Shenanigans (Autumn Nights, Autumn 2013), Russian Navy (Russia, Autumn 2007), High on Hope (Hope and Freedom Fest, Spring 2013), Turn on the Northern Lights, Sleeping Under the Stars (The Great Outdoors, Autumn 2015), Ginny (This Way to the Soiree, December 2016), Danica (Paradise, April 2015), Virgo (Zodiac, September 2016), Paulina (New York Never Sleeps, October 2015), Up All Night (Patent Leather in the City, Spring 2006), Sanaa (Sapphire for September, September 2015)

Turn on the Northern Lights is like Sleeping Under the Stars with a much more visible shimmer, but purely from this base picture they’re dead on. High on Hope is similar but the shimmer less fine.

Summer 2017 Comparisons - Zoya River (Wanderlust)

Man, there’s just no way I can ever get Royal Navy to look right…

From left to right: Selene (Paradise Sun, Summer 2015), So Blue without You (Happy Holiglaze, Holiday 2013), Kiss the Girl (Ever Glaze), Charla (Sparkle, Summer 2010), Emily (Topaz for December, December 2015), River, Do You Sea What I Sea (Fiji, Spring 2017), Tallulah (Ooh-La-La, Summer 2009), Song (Diva, Autumn 2012), Sanaa (Sapphire for September, September 2015), Loot the Booty (Viva Antigua, Summer 2016), Royal Navy (In the Navy, Summer 2010)

Just as I thought, River and Do You Sea are dead on dupes. Emily is also kind of close, but it’s got a different shimmer. Tallulah has a less visible shimmer.

Summer 2017 Comparisons - Orly Under the Stars (Coastal Crush)

From left to right: Frostbite (Ski, Holiday 2007), Bell Bottom Blues (Leggy Legend, Autumn 2015), Aruba Blue (?), Miss Piggy’s Big Number (Muppets Most Wanted, Spring 2014), Under the Stars, Sanaa (Sapphire for September, September 2015), Juniper (Luminous Lights, Holiday 2016), Estelle (Flair, Autumn 2015), Eunice (Into the Sea, July 2016), Little Drummer Boy (Tis the Season to be Naughty and Nice, Holiday 2010), Light My Sapphire (Night Brights, Summer 2007)

Frostbite is too light and cobalt, Bell Bottom Blues is too teal, and Little Drummer Boy are too dark, but everything else is at least kinda close, but except for Sanaa, they all lack the little bit of pink shimmer in Under the Stars. Aruba Blue is similar from a distance, but the formula is thinner and it has no pink in it. Miss Piggy is also lighter and it’s more purple than it is pink in its shimmer. Juniper, Estelle, and Eunice are more true blues like Aruba Blue. Sanaa is the only other blue I have with pink shimmer in it but it’s too light to be a dupe. I think if you mixed Eunice and Sanaa you’d have something like Under the Stars.
