Nicole by OPI Kardashian Collection (Swatches & Comparison)

I picked up a few of the polishes from the Kardashian Kolor Collection from Nicole by OPI and wanted to share the swatches with you.  I also compared them to similar colors in my collection.  I don't have any dupes, but some colors that are similar.  I really love the formula of these polishes.  I was worried the pale colors would be sheer and need 10 coats, but they were quite opaque!   I am obsessed with the color "It's all about the glam".  I want to buy 100 more bottles of it!  Enjoy the swatches!

Revlon Colorstay Nail Polish Collection (Swatches/Comparison)

These are the new Revlon Colorstay polishes that I own.   I thought it would be helpful to see swatches as well as comparison to similar colors in my collection.  Overall, once I got these home I realized that none of them were very unique to my collection.  My favorite so far is Rain Forest.  The formula for these are thick and take FOREVER and a day to dry.  So far, they are lasting about 4 days on me.  My nails usually chip within a couple days, so I didn't see a huge improvement here.  These are more expensive compared to the regular Revlon polishes.  These are $6.99 where I live, which the other Revlon polishes are $4.99.  These also contain only 0.4oz compared to the regular Revlon polishes that are 0.5oz.  So, they are more expensive and less nail polish.  Enjoy the swatches!

Revlon Electric vs Revlon Sunshine Sparkle (swatch/comparison)

These are my favorite two yellow polishes from my collection!  I love how Sunshine Sparkle is a more sublte yellow with nice sparkle, while Electric is brighter, but still wearable!   I don't look good in a creme yellow polish, but the sparkle in both of these make them a better fit for my skin tone!  Who's ready for Spring?? Enjoy the swatches!

Butter London No More Waity, Katie! (Swatch)

I seriously hate the way this nail polish looks in the bottle.  I'll admit the only reason I purchased it was because of all the hype surrounding it.  Who hasn't done that at some point in time? I've had this polish since November and I have never applied it because I thought it was so ugly in the bottle. This polish needs 3 coats to be opaque and the first 2 coats look terrible.  I was so bummed because it looked so bad.  Then I applied a third coat and that is when the magic happened.  I loved it!  Enjoy the swatches!

NOTD: Revlon Perplex (or newly named Naughty)

Revlon's Perplex is well known as being the Chanel Paradoxal dupe.  It is such a gorgeous and unique color.  I can't stop staring at my nails when I wear it.  They finally made it a permanent color, but renamed it as "Naughty".  You should be able to find it soon!  Enjoy the swatch!

Essie Dive Bar Swatch & Comparison!

Dive Bar is such an unexpected color from Essie.   I thought I had several colors that would be similar, but they aren't.  I have included comparison swatches below.  What I love most about Dive Bar is how it has that "wet" look, even after it's dry.  Enjoy the swatches!

Essence Choose Me Nail Polish (swatch)

Essence is a very affordable brand that makes great nail polish!  They are only $0.99!  They bottles are small with only 0.16oz of polish, but you can still get many uses out of them.  All of the Essence polishes I have tried have a nice formula and usually only needs 2 coats to be opaque.  Choose me looked opaque with 2 coats, but after seeing the photo I should've gone with 3 coats.   Enjoy the swatch!
