A quick and dirty comparison, No name Sally Hansen Nail Prisms & Sinful Colors NATB

Hello, Happy New Years Eve/Day!!!! I'm hoping the new year brings some much needed positive energy to me and my family. What are you hoping for? This is a quick comparison of the Sinful polish I showed you yesterday, NATB and that no name Sally Hansen Nail Prisms Polish I have. If you think you might know what color this Prisms is please let me know! Personally I think this is such a close dup that you wouldn't need both. The Prisms polish has a slightly greyer tint to the base. but this is super hard to see. I used 3 coats of each polish. And I think I got slightly better coverage with NATB.





Here we have a couple of bottle pics..... Aren't they pretty?





Here I tried to capture the difference between the real Lapis Amethyst and the mislabeled one. The color difference is much more noticeable in person. The real Lapis Amethyst is on the Left.
A close up. Lapis Amethyst is on the left.
Here we have one coat, pinkie and middle fingers are Night at the Barbados, Ring and index fingers are Lapis Amethyst. All the following pics are in the same order.
Here is a full on sun pic and probably the only one with a visible difference.

Sinful Colors Nail Polish, Night At The Barbados #394

Hello Dear Readers! Hope your all doing well. Today I have a Sinful polish to share with you. This is Night At The Barbados (NATB). I've had this polish for like 2 yrs I think?..and just tried it! Silly Cat! NATB is an awesome "lit from within" polish! Its a cloudy based steel-ish periwinkle, loaded with glowing teal shimmer. This is three thin coats and worth every one! This polish had great drying time, and for $2 it can't be beat. I tried to capture the duochrome of this as best I could.... this post is pic Heavy! please remember to click a picture to enlarge it if you'd like. I recommend the first pic, it really captures this polish nicely. On a side note I do have a Sally Hansen Nail Prism polish that looks (in the bottle) To be a close dup for this, But that polish was mislabeled as Lapis Amethyst, and I've had a couple bottles of LA and I know it's not LA. I will try and swatch my "No Name Prism" soon and see if it's a dup. Have a great day and Thanks for reading!!!!
