L'Oreal Vs. L'Oreal??

L'Oreal came out with a whole new line of polish recently. Here we have Stroke Of Midnight and VIP Status. It was buy one get one 50% off. I got both of these colors because...they looked the same. I wanted to check the difference out myself. 

L-Stroke of Midnight and R-VIP Status

Stroke of Midnight is a dark slate grey with a minor blue undertone. VIP status looks like it would be a purple duo chrome in the bottle. Nope, just a blackened teal shimmer. I like both colors but don't really have a preference between the two. Formula was meh. I have bought L'Oreal polish in the past and I hated them. These are a little better.
Until next time,

Halloween 2011 VS. Halloween 2010

Today I have a little comparison. China Glaze Zombie Zest from Halloween 2010 VS. China Glaze It's Alive from Halloween 2011.

With Flash

As you can see these are very different polishes. Zombie Zest is a yellow/green base with micro brown/mossy green glitter. It's Alive is a murky green base with packed round and hexagonal green glitter. Both are two coats. In my book, It's Alive wins! To me it's so much more fun.
I did wear It's Alive on my nails (it chipped at work so I didn't take a picture). It was a little thick but still manageable. I used two coats. I used a thicker coat of SV so I didn't feel the gritty texture of the glitter. 

Until next time,
