Comparison: OPI Yes...I Can Can! vs. NYPD Beet

Yesterday I showed you some burgundy polishes. I noticed that two of them, YICC! and NYPDB, looked fairly similar in natural light and I wanted to compare them side by side. Index and ring finger have YICC! (three coats no topcoat); middle and pinky have NYPDB (two coats, no topcoat).

Natural light:



Indoor lighting:





As you can see, the shimmer in YICC! is far more pronounced than that of NYPDB, which is why it wins the battle for me. I think the base colors on both are very close, but the obvious shimmer in YICC! makes it lean toward the warm side of the spectrum.

I don't like that YICC! needs three coats, but it also dried very quickly so I can get over that.

I'm headed to Ross to get the new Color Club collection (Starry Temptress). I also have some stash pics coming up. Let's just say it might be time for a helmer. :)

Happy painting!
