I find I'm drawn to certain colors and unwittingly buy different brands of similar colors only to realize it much later. These turquoise-y colors are one of my favorites. I have many of the same polishes. I love blues, greens, and purples. And other colors, too!
ReplyDeleteI bought Zoya Charla a while ago but haven't used it yet. Thanks for reminding me!
ReplyDeleteThat's a lot of Charla dupes! I only have the Essence and the WnW ... among all of yours, which one is your favorite? :)
ReplyDeleteRach, I think the Orly is the one I'd be least likely to give up, followed closely by Charla herself.
DeleteThanks Karen! I've been waffling on that Orly for so long, I might have to take the plunge. :)
DeleteI've got the OPI and Essence dupes for Charla, but I prefer wearing them over black. Also OPI Sonic Boom looks so gorgeous in the bottle. Is it a very old polish?
ReplyDeleteViktorija, I believe it's an older polish, but I haven't had it too long. I found it in a nail supply store. I do see it for sale now on Amazon at regular retail, so I'm thinking it's not super rare.
DeleteOPI sonic bloom is gorgeous, Thanks for this post, I feel slightly over 'pinked' this week too x
ReplyDeleteYou are right, it's nice with something blue after all the pinks and reds, thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteIt is very cool to see all these blues together!
ReplyDeleteI love these colors!!!
ReplyDeletehave to LOL at the Charla dupes.. I only have the Jesse's Girl version, but it is worth having various back ups of!
ReplyDeleteCharla and her army of dupes :D I love these nail wheel posts and bottle-shots. You have quite a fabulous collection!
ReplyDeleteLove wheel posts! I'm especially happy when I see a swatch I adore, to scroll to the name and number and discover I already have it!
ReplyDeleteWow you've got so many wonderful blues. Adore the last ones.
ReplyDeleteI love this
ReplyDeleteOPI sonic bloom looks so awesome!!
lol, so this is a recovering post ;-D
ReplyDeletelove the turquoise color, but it just looks bad with my ten, so i don't wear it often :-(
I love turquoise :-)
ReplyDeleteOh how I love turquoise!!
ReplyDeleteWow look at all these beautiful polishes!! Love this wheel :D It is nice to see something besides reds and pinks this week haha
ReplyDeleteI love OPI Sonic Bloom! It just seems to glow.
ReplyDeleteBlues, teals, and turquoises are my faves! Awesome swatches:)
