this is going to be an extremely picture heavy post. these polishes have so much going on with each of them and i tried to capture them in different light, different flash, no flash, etc. the only thing i couldn't do was the florescent light in the kitchen. luck would have it that both lights burnt out when i turned on the switch this morning. here's hoping maintenance can switch them out soon enough today.
anyhow, here's a comparison between castle on a cloud and ice castle. both colors are 1 thin coat over cult nails - nevermore and a coat of seche on top.
though they look similar in certain light, they are completely different when side by side. please scroll through all of these pictures to see what i was able to capture.
pinky and ring fingers are castle on a cloud, middle and pointer fingers are ice castle.
oops, needed cleanup on my ring finger :( didn't see that until these pictures were taken.
blurry, but you can see the difference between the two well here.
thank you so much for this post, it helps a lot. ♥
ReplyDeleteSuper excellent & thorough comparison (and beautiful swatches! Maybe Chelsea could link to this post too.
ReplyDeleteboth of you are welcome :) i did post a link to this on the EP facebook page.
ReplyDeleteGreat post! I have these and was convinced they were v similar.
ReplyDeleteThank you x
Thanks for the comparison. Do you think the difference would be as evident if these were worn as a top coat over saturated or lighter colors vs. black?
