Here's a polish I had never seen before, or heard of, until idly browsing the Sally Hansen displays in a local Walgreens last Wednesday. I'm guessing it's part of the new line, because I could not find swatches of it online anywhere.
It's Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure- Gilty Party, not to be confused with SHCSM- Gilty Pleasure, which is actually a gold. (They sure do appreciate the gilt puns...)
Gilty Party is a metallic foil (Am I boring you guys to death with foils yet?!) that straddles the line between silver and pewter. I suppose I would call it a dingy silver. It's a really interesting color. Leans gold in some lights, and pinkish in others.
Artificial light, two coats:
Window-filtered daylight:
Outside, shade:
It almost has a bronze feel to it sometimes, due to micro coppery flakes within the base color. The tiny micro flakes that this has reminds me of Zoya- Ziv, actually. Although the two polishes are different colors, it's the same idea!
Close up:
Up close the flake particles almost look red-orange duochromey, but I didn't really notice that in real life.
Formula: Effortless to apply, opaque in two coats. Nothing much to say- it's a great formula!
It also wore fairly well too. Usually, foils chip like mad on me, but I wore this for two whole days (a lot for me!) and just had one minor chip & slight tip-wear. (I used OPI- Nail Envy beneath, and INM- Out The Door on top.)
Wow, this looks like a dead-on dupe of OPI's Designer de Better from Muppets collection. Your photos are amazing!
ReplyWow you may be right. I don't have it to compare, but DdB looks slightly, just slightly, warmer than Gilty Party to me. But who knows! They look so close. :)
such an awesome color!!
ReplyIt is....so complex.
