Comparison Post: OPI Gwen Stefani Collection

Hi everyone, happy Thursday/Friday.  This post is at a very unusual time for me but I felt weird not posting anything today even though I have tons of content prepped and ready to go :)  I was super swamped at work this morning and didn't have the time to write a post and then tomorrow I'm going to be in the field all day, i.e. a long explanation when I'm just saying I was busy :)  How's that for a boring intro ha!

Today I have a comparison post with shades similar to the OPI Gwen Stefani collection.  I pulled polishes I thought were similar and also ones I was wondering about myself.  Let's get right into it!

First up, OPI Visions of Love VS. OPI I Sing in Color.  This was one I was wondering about myself since I got the polishes within two weeks of each other.  I Sing in Color is clearly a darker vampy shade and Visions of Love definitely has more red to it.  What I love about both is how glossy they are and honestly I really love both.


Next up, OPI Over and Over A-Gwen VS. Zoya Livingston VS. Essie Snap Happy.  I thought Snap Happy would be similar but clearly I was mistaken as it is much lighter.  I couldn't tell the different between Over and Over A-Gwen and Zoya Livingston, I ever put a stripe of one over the other and still couldn't tell.  The difference is in the formula.  OPI Over and Over A-Gwen has a crelly finish and Zoya Livingston is a cream.


Next up, OPI In True Stefani Fashion VS. OPI Which is Witch?  Ever since Which is Witch? came out, it's been my favorite silver glitter.  Well, In True Stefani Fashion beats it for me.  There are a bunch of differences in these two polishes, the biggest being that the photo shows two coats of Which is Witch? (which includes bar glitter) versus only one coat of In True Stefani Fashion (which includes holographic squares). 


Last up, the pink comparison, OPI Hey Baby VS. OPI Kiss Me on my Tulips VS. OPI I'm Indi-a Mood for Love.  These were all pretty close.  Hey Baby is the most different in that it is a warmer pink than the two others and it has a dusty, muted quality.  I'm Indi-a Mood for Love is cooler and has a purple tone to it and Kiss Me on my Tulips is cooler and has a crisp and clear color (as opposed to being dusty). 


This is my very first true comparison post and I hope you enjoyed it!  Were you on the fence about any of these?
