Nail Polish Collection 2023 #Blogmas2023
I don't have a big collection like I used to and you can see the previous collections how small it has gotten, I don't paint my nails anymore because I get them professionally done but here is what I still have. Also note after taking the photos for this I painted my toe nails because they were naked.

BATTLE OF THE DUPES #24: Essie vs. Lottie London
I saw online that Lottie London has a dupe for Essie Sugar Daddy so thought I would try it out. I have a bottle of Essie Sugar Daddy but it is almost all gone so I purchase a new bottle to try it out with when I do this battle and as you can see by the picture above there is a difference between the new and the old bottle in colour. I am going to battle it out with the new bottle. PACKAGING (Essie): Squared bottle Brush is round PACKAGING (Lottie London): Rectangle bottle Bru

BATTLE OF THE DUPES #17: Essie vs. OPI
I had these two in my collection and thought 'oh, are these a dupe?' so I put them to the test. PACKAGING ( Essie ): I am a bit OCD when it comes to my nail polish, I love the squared/rectangular packaging because they store easier and nicer. PACKAGING (OPI): OPI's packaging isn't bad, the bottle looks sleek and is well known as OPI. CLAIMS (Essie): Provides flawless coverage along with outstanding durability Brush fits every nail size for streak-free application Intense rich
