DUPE: MAC - Mischievous Mint

MAC's Mischievous Mint ($14):

Sally Hansen's Mint Sorbet ($2):

I have just been getting my pictures from Google since I can never find good lighting in my house. The picture I found of the Sally Hansen polish seems very washed out. When you swatch these two polishes they are actually very similar on the nail.

HELPFUL HINT: Water Marbling

For those of you who have tried water marbling you know it makes an amazing design on your nails and is very simple to do! I've had people ask me why their nail polish doesn't spread once they drop it into the water though.

Most of the time I have found out that people are using warm water or cold water. Don't do that! It absolutely has to be room temperature or the colors won't spread correctly. It's a very simple change that needs to be made.

Hopefully that'll help some people that get confused by that and think they need to use a certain brand of nail polish or something very complicated.


Remember: ROOM TEMPERATURE WATER.

DUPE: MAC - Little Girl Type

This dupe is a little more blue toned than Little Girl Type, but is still very similar! I found it at my local Walmart for $2! That is a much cheaper price than ordering from the MAC website or getting it from a counter.

The dupe I found is called Sally Hansen's Hard as Nails Xtreme Hardwear in Lacey Lilac.

They both are beautiful spring time colors and go amazingly with the muted color trend. Enjoy!

DUPE: OPI Katy Perry - Not Like The Movies

I've got a second Katy Perry OPI dupe! This time it's for the color Not Like The Movies. It's a silver color with green/pink shine and subtle glitter. It's a really unique, new color that I was instantly in love with.

 

The dupe I found is by Wet 'n' Wild and cost me less than two dollars! It's their new fast dry line and is called Gray's anatomy. They are EXACTLY the same except the Wet 'n' Wild doesn't seem to have the few little sparkles in it. You can hardly tell once you paint your nails with it though. 

This is definitely a cheaper alternative and easier to get a hold of!

REVIEW: China Glaze Celtic Sun (NEON)

This is a very beautiful color. It's so neon and bright. It looks like a bottle of highlighter ink. The problem is though, no matter how many coats you use it's still completely see through leaving your nails a sickly yellow color. If you want to use this you need to use a white polish first as a base. Don't put it on thinking you can use a few layers and it'll be fine because I got to eight layers and it never got anymore opaque. You just have to know how to use it correctly.


Would I buy this product again? Yep.
