Carbonite vs. Valiant

Middle and Pinky: Revlon - Carbonite

Pointer and Ring: L'Oreal - Valiant

 You think they're similar, but they're not. Valiant is a little smoother and more on the silver side.
Carbonite looks a little rougher and leans more gold. At least to my eye.

 Ignore my messy valiant fingers. I remembered when I was using it that this is the polish I use on my dog once and awhile, so I was pulling hairs out of the brush. Gross, I know! Sorry!

Verdict: Note dupes.
If I had to get rid of one: No way! Love them both!
