You've seen this one before, but it's a special occasion, OK? I wanted a very special polish by Essie called Armed and Ready. I googled it a hundred times, looked for it on Ebay, added it to my wishlist and when I finally wanted to click the 'buy' button, I stumbled upon an interesting post by Goose's Glitter. I realized I already own a polish that's very close to Armed and Ready and one that might be more suitable for me too. This is S-he Stylezone nail polish in 466.
S-he Stylezone, 466, 2 coats
That's the problem when you own too many polish bottles. You completely forget about the gems you already have in your collection and rather focus on the ones you wish you had. S-he Stylezone changed the packaging since I got this shade, but I'm pretty sure it's still available in new 'lego shaped' bottle. Two coats, good formula, good brush, low price. A winner!
What about you: have you ever had a nail polish lemming and later realized you already own something very similar? If so, which shade was it?
Thanks for looking and commenting!

thats a very cool color!!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid the answer to your last comment in bold is... too many times. I guess there are certain shades that catch my eye so much that I'm blind to the fact that I may already own something similar.
ReplyDeleteGod, those new 'lego' bottles look even more ridiculous when compared to the old ones.
ReplyDeleteI have the opposite problem. I try to be rational when buying nail polish (or other make up), so when I find something I like, I convince myself that I have so many polishes that I probably already have something similar in my stash. Then I come home and realize I don't :-D
The same here but I'm sure I don't have anything like this in my stash
DeleteI try to do the same, but I get carried away sometimes. =)
DeleteNot a lemming for a specific shade, but I keep buying inky blue polishes, like OPI Russian Navy and Ink (of course), RBL Under the Stars, Essie Midnight Cami, etc...
ReplyDeleteI absolutely hate the new S-he brush and bottles...so sad that I own only one in the old packaging:( but it's a terrible yellow so I never wear it..:D
ReplyDeleteI liked the previous bottles/brushes better too. The new ones are just... bad.
DeleteI just bought this shade three days ago! it's in their new 'cube' bottle line, and it seems they're tossing it out. I love it, I bought it for 0,90 euro =) it looks amazing layered over dark green and black =)
ReplyDeleteOh my, I need to get to DM ASAP! =D
Deletego go go! =P ^^
DeleteThis looks pretty! And yes, sometimes I receive something only to find out it is dupey to something already stashed..
