Cinema Swatch Lacquers Marie's Retreat and Bells of Ireland Comparison

**The products in this post were provided to me by the manufacturer for my honest review. All opinions are my own. I was not compensated.**

How is it already April?! I'm really confused. I thought Christmas was like 2 weeks ago. Why? How does time pass so quickly?! Well, my daughter's "Spring Break" starts tomorrow. I have to put Spring Break in quotes because it's just a four day weekend. Since when was Spring Break not a week? Nine days actually because you usually get 2 whole weekends. This is ridiculous! Well, I'm taking her out of town to visit her grandmother for 2 days. This will be my last post this week, but when I get back in town I'll have some new packages and some swatching to do! 

On Monday, I showed you all the entire My Secret Garden Collection from Cinema Swatch Lacquers here. When I was doing my swatching, I thought Bells of Ireland looked familiar. I had just pulled out Marie's Retreat to use with one of the Exotic Petals. Sure enough, they looked super similar in the bottle. As I was in the middle of swatching, I figured I would take some comparison shots.

Some similarities. Some differences. Keep reading to find out more!

LynBDesigns Comparison

I ended up having a girls day on Monday. My mom was in town for the weekend, so my daughter and I just spent some lazy cuddling time watching some movies she got for an early birthday present. Now, I've got a slight migraine so staring at a screen is doing me no favors. Gonna keep this short, sweet, and informative. 

I run a LynBDesigns fan group (if you're a fan and want to request to join, the link is below), and I was recently asked to compare The Credible Hulk and Absinthe Makes the Heart Grow Fonder. I had been meaning to do the comparison since I received Absinthe as a gift, I just totally forgot. So glad, someone requested it.

Comparison LynBDesigns and SuperChic Lacquers

I have a fun post for you all this Tuesday. When I was swatching the Hero Collection from SuperChic Lacquer, I thought that Gauntlet Girl had a little resemblance to LynBDesigns Double Bluff. I had to do a little comparison between the two.

Zoya & Funky Fingers Comparison

I still can't believe it's already 2014, you guys!!!! This just seems crazy to me! Anyway, happy Thursday!! I have a comparison post for you all today! After receiving the Zenith Collection from Zoya, I had happened to be walking around Five Below and something caught my eye. I was in a rush so I grabbed it (and two others since the Funky Fingers polishes are 3 for $5) and everything else I needed and checked out. When I got home and put the bottles next to each other, I knew I had to do a comparison post.

Comparison - Cult Nails & Bongo

It's WEDNESDAY!!! Halfway through the week! I got some exciting news last night, I won't be able to share it with you all until next week though. It's not polish related, but I'm over the moon about it. Anyway, onto what you came here for!

Earlier this month, I showed you all some new polishes from Bongo. Sweet Cheeks looked a little too familiar to me. Sweet Cheeks looks like everyone's favorite color shifting top coat, Charlatan. Yup, looks like Cult Nails has a copy cat!!

Wax vs. Matte top coat Comparison

**The products in this post were all purchased by me with my own money. All opinions are my own.**

I received a request to do a comparison between Cult Nails Wax That wax effect top coat and a regular matte top coat. People are wondering if there really is a difference. 

My current go to matte top coat is NYC Matte Me Crazy. So, I grabbed that and my Wax That bottle and got to work. I decided to test them over Cult Nails - Nevermore and SinfulColors - SinfulShine - Picante. I did two coats of each color on two nails. Then tossed each top coat over one nail of each color.

Here are the results...

Comparison - Zoya and SinfulColors

I have another comparison post for you all today. At the beginning of January, I did a comparison post of a Julep polish and a Sally Hansen polish (link here), and someone asked if I would compare the Sally Hansen polish to Zoya - Feifei. When I grabbed my bottle of Feifei I noticed it wouldn't be anywhere near similar the Sally Hansen, but I did notice it looked very similar to one of the holiday polishes. I grabbed it and below are the results!


**Side note - Due to my stupidly editing pictures late at night, in the below pictures where it says "Winter Wonderland" it is only supposed to say "Winter Wonder". Completely a huge mistake on my part. Forgive me!**

Comparison - Julep, SinfulColors & Spoiled

When I was working on swatching my December Julep Maven It Girl box, I noticed a couple seemed similar to others I already had. I already did a comparison post on Ivy, but Harper also looked similar to not only one but TWO different polishes.

Julep and Sally Hansen Comparison

When I was going through my December Julep Maven box, Ivy immediately made me think of a polish I already had in my stash. I made the mental note to pull it and do a comparison post on it. When I started to put Ivy on my nails I knew it different. But since they were so similar in the bottles, I figured it was still worth a comparison post.

Zoya Blu & Julep Jessica Comparison

When I was working on my review for Zoya's Lovely Collection I noticed that Blu was very similar to one of my favorite Julep polishes...Jessica. I knew I would have to do a comparison post for you all.

Comparison - OPI Meep-Meep-Meep and Essence Glamorous Life!

This is my first comparison post. As I was grabbing polishes for some reviews I noticed that two of my polishes were EXTREMELY similar. I don't know how I didn't notice it until now.

This next lady was one of the first followers I had on my blog. Shortly after I started my blog, she decided she needed to do so herself. Over the past few months, we've grown to be good friends. Making new, wonderful friends, is one of the many reasons I love having this blog. I give you Carrie of ink&polish!

I have some things going on, so I'm not going to personally be able to post like I usually do, so I've asked some of my favorites to do guest posts. I hope you all enjoy them as much as I have! This first lady is a doll! She's super sweet and has a lot of fun with her posts! I've really enjoyed getting to know her!
