DUPE ALERT! ESSIE'S TART DECO vs. SALLY'S HANSEN SNAPPY SORBET




I went to Rite-Aid and there was my color, Tart Deco. I've been obsessed with orange/corals for the spring and this color is just so pretty but 8 bucks for a polish? honey please, not me! So I did what any cheap broad would do... I swatched the polish to find a cheaper dupe, lol. I know, I know... But t my effing surprise, this color looked very similar. When I went home there it was in my collection; Sally Hansen's Insta-Dri nail polish in snappy sorbet. Im telling both colors are near identical! Sally's polish is a bit darker/orange-y but i swear after it dries you can't even tell the difference between the two! SMH, wow, all this time.... and i had a dupe all along. Here are the pics.


I actually like Essie's polish consistency and the brush, and one coat was pretty good, but i painted my nail with 2 coats just to make sure that it was at its truest color. Gorgeous peachy-coral shade, perfect for all skin tones and SPRING!


But I really lovvveeeee Sally's flat-paddle shaped brush one coat is seriously all you need, and they last long. Oh, and it's hella cheaper. I still want tart deco... greedy! : )

tart deco looks darker but its the lighting, i swear its lighter but not that much lighter


*UPDATE: NEW DUPE FOR TART DECO IS REVLON TOP SPEED 'PEACHY'. 97% LOOK ALIKE. PICS AVAILABLE HERE :
