Devil in a Blue Dress is my first Lippman Collection nail polish. I received it from a wonderful MUA'er in a swap. The polish is a mini-size so the brush was kind of short and stubby. It took three coats to get it where it didn't look streaky and brush-marky. But then, boy was it beautiful! It's so dark it's almost black, but in the sun, it's this gorgeous, deep, inky marine blue. Totally creamy, no shimmer. It wore like freakin' iron too! I applied it Friday night and by Monday I only had minimal tip wear. There were no chips, nicks, and it was still as shiny as day one. It also didn't take a gallon of aceton and a boar bristle brush to remove. GREAT stuff!
I also experimented a little and compared Devil to Sally Hansen's Xtreme Wear "In the Navy". Very different. Index is SH, middle is Devil.
As you can see, "In the Navy" is blue-er, with some shimmer . Devil is a darker, blacker glossy navy. Both are gorgeous on.
For funsies, I also experimented with my Art deco polishes. I'm still not getting this freehand french manicure thing down, but I had fun trying. The black is BB Couture "Cash Black" Brown is BB Couture "Animal Instinct" with Revvolution, FYI, IMG and WW - Carribean Frost on the tips.
BEHOLD:
I like that, it's so shiny. Thanks for the comparisons!
ReplyDeletehiii WillaDodge thanx for the comment this is gonna sound funny but ive never heard of Ozotics I had to look them up but anyway,im mostly interested in beauty products.Do you have anything other then ozotics your interested in ?
ReplyDeleteI usually try to free hand my french tips too. It just takes a little practice but eventually you start getting better and better. I have also heard an easy way to make french tips is to do the "roll" method. Where you keep your nail art brush steady and roll your nail under it, it makes for smoother lines, but of course does take alittle practice. keep up the good work and I have you saved for next weeks New Blog On the Block post :)
ReplyDeleteCool! I have comments! Thanks girls!!
ReplyDeleteI love this color. I had an old Revlon Street Wear Polish called Ink. This looks similar and I think I may have to get it. I've been looking for that color. Glad you posted it.
ReplyDeleteTry Naughtycal Navy by Color Club, it's so close to Devil!
ReplyDeleteI love freehand frenches and recently got into the fun of adding the extra line to separate the colors. Fun!
