Holiday 2017 Comparisons - Essie Social-Lights (Ring in the Bling) - Part 1




From left to right: Ainsley (Cozy in Love, February 2017), Monique (Lighten Up, March 2016), Beth (Sophisticates, Autumn 2017), Fashion Faceoff (Gala Bolds, Summer 2017), Harley (Twist, Spring 2009), Social-Lights, Don’t Take Yosemite For Granite (California Dreaming, Summer 2017), On the Wild Side (Wild at Heart, Autumn 2009), Kiss My Glass (Autumn Nights, Autumn 2013), Haute & Heavy (Street Regal, Autumn 2017)
Social-Lights is the only thing here with that luscious gold shimmer in it. Harley has a similar base color but the shimmer’s not even close.

Holiday 2017 Comparisons - China Glaze Slay Bells Ring (The Glam Finale) - Part 1




From left to right: Harley (Twist, Spring 2009), Fashion Faceoff (Gala Bolds, Summer 2017), Gossip Over Gimlets (Autumn Nights, Autumn 2013), Slay Bells Ring, Don’t Take Yosemite For Granite (California Dreaming, Summer 2017), On the Wild Side (Wild at Heart, Autumn 2009), Kiss My Glass (Autumn Nights, Autumn 2013), After Hours (Dance to the Musique, Autumn 2008), Lucerne-tainly Look Marvelous (Swiss, Autumn 2010), Show Time (In True Fashion, Autumn 2012), Nancy (Black Magic, October 2014)

Harley and Fashion Faceoff are too light, and the stuff on the right is too dark. Gossip Over Gimlets is the closest in color, but they’re quite different in finish. Closer in finish is On the Wild Side (which is a lot more blue) and Yosemite (which is pinker).

Summer 2017 - OPI Don't Take Yosemite For Granite (California Dreaming)





From left to right: Take the “A” Train (New York Marquee, Autumn 2014), Rachael (Kisses, London, September 2015), On the Wild Side (Wild at Heart, Autumn 2009), Bad Moon Rising (Big Bang, Holiday 2013), Hook and Line (Colours from the Capitol/Hunger Games, Spring 2012), Chrome is Where the Heart Is (House of Colour, Spring 2016), Don’t Take Yosemite for Granite, Jungle Queen (On Safari, Autumn 2012), No Peeking! (Twinkle, Holiday 2014)

Yosemite is the only polish in California Dreaming I don’t have anything exactly like. Its closest relative in style is Jungle Queen but Jungle Queen’s not a true metallic. It’s a cross between Jungle Queen and Chrome is Where the Heart Is.
