The end! Feel free to point me in the direction of a no-buy support group, haha. :) If you'd like to see a swatch of something specific, I can bump it up on my swatch list.

When I heard Fashion Bug had a dupe to OPI's coveted Mad as a Hatter, I scurried to their site to order a bottle. I'm not sure why hearing about a dupe makes me want it even more, but it really is fiscally irresponsible. On the bright side, now I can compare the two.

Multi Red, Mad as a Hatter

As you can see, they are not dead on dupes, but they are similar. Multi Red has more red, and the glitter looks slightly bigger than MaaH. From a distance, though, the difference is trivial. So, if you missed out on MaaH, perhaps Multi Red will satisfy your lemming.

Blagger is such a gorgeous blue! The color is so rich and pigmented, and I got so many compliments when I wore it (plus!). It applied like a dream too. It a close competition between Blagger and Lady Muck for my favorite of the collection.

1 coat of Bring on the Bling over 1 coat of 170

A beautiful friend of mine sent me a bunch of Depend polishes recently, and I love every single one of them to bits! 170 (oh how I wish they had names) is a dusty blue, which is right up my alley. It applied like a dream and is super pigmented! One coat gave me perfect coverage. I wore 170 on its own for a few days and then added Deborah Lippmann Bring on the Bling. BotB is such a stunning shimmer! It looks great over everything.

Depend is not available in the US, but maybe you can nudge a Nordic friend to snag a bottle for you. I hear they're very affordable. :)

Bring on the Bling is $20 retail and availabe at deborahlippmann.com
