Wet-n-Wild "Blue Wants to be a Millionaire"

Milani 3D Holographic in "Cyberspace"

 This is two coats of each over a layer of navy blue.

 Index and Ring: Cyberspace (definitely more opaque than the WnW)
Middle and Pinky: Blue Wants to be a Millionaire
The Wet n Wild is really thin, but more holo. Cyberspace is more blue-silver, denser but less holo.

Verdict: Not dupes
If I had to get rid of one: Brace yourselves folks, I'd probably get rid of both! What!? Shocking right? But, neither of them are as holo as I NEED them to be.

Cosmic Blue - Sally Hansen Xtreme

This is without top coat and it's kinda lumpy and sloppy. i haven't had a chance to try to photograph it again.

Cosmic Midnight Blues

This is Midnight from the Wet n Wild Holiday collection I believe. It photographed kind of weird. To my eye it was more of a medium purple.

It has great holo glitter pieces that were hard to capture because there was no sun out.

Indoor lighting.

Midnight looked sort of familiar so thought I would compare it to Duri "Midnight Blues" which I have posted before and Sally Hansen XTreme Cosmic Blue, which is a LE this season and I don't think I have posted yet.

Index: Duri, Middle and Pinky: W-n-W, Ring: SH Xtreme

There is no top coat so they look a little chunky.

SH has some weird bar glitter that doesn't shine through because the polish is kind of dense.

BORGHESE - MEDITERRANEO SEA

This one looked interesting on the shelf. It's a pretty medium blue with blue and magenta glitter. It seems to go on matte? I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a matte polish. The above and below pictures are index finger with top coat and middle finger without.

Now, even with topcoat, the chunky, lumpiness of the glitter doesn't go away. I generally find that pretty annoying. But this was such an interesting looking color, that it's almost okay.

A few "lost" photos from my short nail days...

Pure Ice "Strapless" over Essie "Mesomorize".
Color Club "With Abandon". I wish these pictures had come out better.

This polish is so gorgeous in person. These pictures don't do it justice. Great wear too!

OPI's Jade is the New Black. Of all the greens I have tried, this is probably my favorite on me!

Sinful Colors "I love U" . Another one that is so much prettier in person than I was able to capture in this pictures.

Meteor Shower in a Snow Shower!

China Glaze's "Meteor Shower" I wanted to love this so much.

It's such a pretty deep dark navy blue with all this awsome sliver, blue and teal glitter in it.

I read the stories about how lumpy it was, but I thought I could fix it with some top coat.

The lesson? You can't fix lumpy polish. No matter how many layers of Seche Vite you use.

Sigh..
