Meet: Revlon Lilac Pastelle

I am in love with this color! the formula for this was surprisingly good. I used 3 coats for good measure. Its a little more pink than I expected, but I am loving it.

Today is my graduation ceremony! I can't believe I'm done with school forever. I picked up 5 polishes for a little graduation present for 5 of my good friends that helped me through school. I tried to get colors with their personality in mind. So these are the colors that I picked up. Aren't they pretty all lined up like that?

Meet and Greet: Wet n' Wild Wet Cement and Friends

This is Wet n' Wild Megalast Salon Nail Color in Wet Cement. The formula was great and coverage is awesome. This is worth the $1 I paid for and then some.

In today's post, I am doing a little comparison using the Wet n' Wild Wet Cement. This color has been very popular during the last couple of years. and it is definitely a dupe for the popular "Metro Chic" from Sephora by OPI line.

There is absolutely no difference between the three shades on my nails with my naked eye. The only difference to me is the formula and the brushes. Rimmel and Wet n' Wild has similar wide brushes that I love. The SOPI has the skinniest brush ever, and this makes application difficult for me. If you look closely in my swatches, you can see there are some bold spots only on the Metro Chic finger. The formula was very similar. They dried pretty much at the same time. As for Price. the Wet n' Wild Retails for $1.99, Rimmel for  $3.99 and Sephora by OPI for $9.50. I'm not sure if Sephora or Rimmel still sell these colors, but you can get Wet n' Wild polish for $1 at walgreens this month!
