Yes, it's a Dupe!

Hello my dear fellow fiends!


While fidgeting around in my polish drawers, I came across two identical looking polishes. At first I thought, duh, what did I back up now? But then I realized, no, no back up, but actually two different polish brands with identical looking colors. Of course, I couldn't resist and swatched those darlings right away. Guess what? Both are twins! Yay!

So the colors I am talking about are

Sephora by OPI's Mermaid to Order and Sinful Colors Aqua

I guess the only difference we have here is in the formula, Aqua is way more runny than Mermaid to order and I needed 3 coats instead of 2 to get the full color look

Pinkie and Ring: Mermaid to Order

I think it is a fantastic color, no matter which brand you choose. SOPI gives you the better formula, for a higher price (9$), Sinful gives you the same color for less (2,50$) but the formula is a bit of a pain in the rear...so it's up to you guys whatever you prefer
