Thrifty Thursday! Starring Milani Deep Thoughts with Comparisons to Chanel and Illamasqua

♥

It's Thursday again! Time for a thrifty find and I have a great one for you this evening...Milani Deep Thoughts. I'm not sure which collection this is, but I found it mid-2012 at my local drug store. It was in the same collection as Orchidia, Dark Coffee and Teddy Brown if that helps.


Deep Thoughts is a deep, almost blackened royal purple shimmer polish with fuchsia and violet shimmer. Formula was perfect. No issues. I used 2 coats and no top coat for the photos.

What do you think? I love it and the formula is great. But...a few people have already asked for comparisons, so let's see how it compares to Chanel Taboo, Chanel Vendetta and Illamasqua Baptiste...

Illamasqua Baptiste and Chanel Vendetta


As you can see, they're not dupes, but it certainly has the same "look" about it. There's more of the fuchsia shimmer in Baptiste. Vendetta is darker and has more of a blackened red-purple base while Deep Thoughts is more of a blue-purple base. Taboo has larger shimmer particles and more red in the base.

Is it close enough to any of those for you?

For $4.99, it's pretty hard to beat. Cruelty-free and Big 3-Free and widely available at drug stores nationwide and on milanicosmetics.com.

Chanel Vendetta

How about some Chanel? This is Chanel Vendetta and I decided it was time I actually wore it. I swatched it on a nail wheel when I first got it (see full sun swatch here) and for some reason hadn't worn it yet.

Vendetta is a deep blackened purple shimmer polish with blue and violet/fuchsia shimmer. It's rather dark, especially on me, but when the light hits it, it positively glows.

Chanel Vendetta Swatch

Short post - just wanted to show a swatch of Chanel Vendetta.  It's a very interesting purple that is dark enough that it reads black on me indoors. Most dark and even some semi-dark polishes read black on me because my skin in the color of bleached flour. Bah!

Cheater nail wheel swatches! Sorry.
