Nail Pattern Boldness vs. Clarins 230

This polish does not have a name.  I won this in a giveaway on the Nail Pattern Boldness blog

Pinky and middle = Clarins 230 2 coats
Ring and pointer = 1 coat NPB unnamed franken
Both are over GOSH Oh My Gosh Cobalt Blue (fabulous btw)

I wish I had more time to gush, but my ride is here.
Summary = closest dupe I have yet found to Clarins 230 aside from the Pied Polish Piper's Bliss Piss which I comped here.

I want to add that there are tiny little bits in the NPB that are visible in low light and shade.  You can see them in my shade picture.  Does not take away from the gorgeousness that is this polish in ze sunshine!  Also, doesn't really take away from the gorgeousness in the shade ;)







Cross fingers she adds this to her line!  It is not for sale right now :( Pin It

Bliss Piss & Clarins 230 Comps

My BFF made this.  I adore it!  Here is 1 coat over OPI Houston we Have a Purple.

In da sunshine!



This polish is truly gorgeous.  I decided to comp it against 230 and some of my other "dupes"

Beyu has the least strong green flash, but it really does glow in the sun.  FF has the least strongest flashes either way of the lot.  I think it could have benefited from a second coat which is a shame because it comes in the tiniest bottle.  I would say Bliss Piss is the closest dupe to 230 that I own and the only one that came close to matching the green flash although it was difficult for me to catch that on camera.  Thus far, I have yet to find something that truly matches it's scream of green!

Thank you Miss Moxie for this amazing little bottle *heart*
