Euro? Not Euro.

I'm referring to the OPI Euro Central. Such beautiful colors! The design I did looks like it could be from the Euro Central collection. Only one of the colors actually is. I wanted to do an Autism Awareness design and this is what I came up with.

I started with one coat of Sinful Colors Sweet Nothing. It is a dupe for Can't Find My Czechbook. I'm saving my teeny tiny bottle of the actual polish. Sweet Nothing applies slightly thick and one coat was enough for this gradient. I also have to say that this was the tidiest painting that I have ever done.   Barely any polish got on my cuticles. The irony was that this was a gradient and getting polish on my cuticles is a given. I did want to keep the neatness up and brushed on cuticle oil before sponging the colors on. I then used a napkin to wipe off the oil right after each finger was sponged. No fuss cleanup.
The purple used is the actual You're Such A BudPest. Sinful colors did have a dupe in their Sugar Rush set. I now wish I had grabbed the two purples from that set when I saw it.
For the stamping, I did try using Eurso Euro. The result was too light. To achieve that same blue in the bottle, I pulled out Revlon Moon Candy in Galactic.  Perfect. The glitter on my pointer and pinkie is obviously not Polka.com. It is Spolied in Trust Fund Baby.

OPI Can't Find My Czechbook vs. Sinful Colors Sweet Nothing

Today's post is a comparison between OPI Can't Find My Czechbook from the Euro Central collection and Sinful Colors Sweet Nothing from their Sugar Rush display. Both collections came out around the same time. These two colors are so close, I needed to do a side by side swatch to see if they were dupes. On my pinkie and middle finger is OPI Can't Find My Czechbook, pointer and ring is S.C. Sweet Nothing. Czechbook leans more blue, while Sweet Nothing slightly leans green. Both were two coats. Czechbook was a little streaky, but it could have been because I have the mini bottle and I usually have trouble with application due to the teeny tiny brushes. Sweet Nothing has a thicker formula and it could get away with one thick coat. Czechbook dries faster and both have a glossy finish. They are not dupes. However, if you own one, you really don't need the other.
