Perfectly Polished Tips 216 - RBL Teal & OPI Ski Teal We Drop Comparison

l-r RBL Teal & OPI Ski Teal We Drop

In case you haven't noticed teal is pretty much my favorite color polish to wear. The creme-ier the better :) I purchased Rescue Beauty Lounge's Teal first and it was love at first stroke. RBL's formula is amazing, pretty much all of the ones I have are one coaters. To me there is nothing better and easier than a polish that is good to go with one coat. Being that I love the color so much I had to purchase OPI Ski Teal We Drop. I had read online that it was pretty much a dupe to RBL Teal but I didn't care.

This photo is one coat of polish, you can see a difference not only in the color but the coverage.

Two coats and the RBL is slightly darker. The OPI has awesome coverage with two coats of color.

Three coats and you can't really tell the difference. I don't really purchase OPI much anymore to be honest. I absolutely hate the pro wide brush. I have small nail beds and most times I make a huge mess when using OPI. I will purchase if there is a color I feel I absolutely must have but if I can find in in another brand with a normal brush I go for that one.

I like the formula on both of these polishes, however if I had to chose one I'd pick the RBL.

Just wanted to share, now would be the time to get those polishes you've wanted but couldn't justify spending the money on. Too bad I've already used up all my birthday dough. I would so get a couple of those glitter polishes, and Under the Stars because I've been lemming that forever.

Here is a first look at Rescue Beauty Lounge's fall/winter collection.

from an email:

Teal - is a deep green/navy that enlivens all-black and tones down bold florals and plaids.
No More War - is pure olive green. Edgy with lace and ruffles, at ease with defused earth tones and metallics.
Bruised - A moody deep plum brown called Bruised that works with charcoal to saturated hues.
Plie - an opaque neutral beige with a hint of blush. A grown-up way to do pale pink.

These will be available in October but you can preorder them now from RescueBeauty.com
