Thrifty Thursday! Starring SinfulShine Pragmatic

Personal Collection
*Unsure if this product is still Cruelty Free 


Thrifty Thursday is brought to you by SinfulShine Pragmatic!

Pragmatic is a creamy lavender with a subtle shimmer. Formula and application were great and I have no issues at all to report. I've used two coats and no top coat for the photos.

Thrifty Thursday! with Sinful Colors Endless Blue and an Electric Blue Comparison

Personal Collection 
*I am not sure if this 
product is Cruelty Free 



Good evening, it's Thrifty Thursday! Tonight I have a Sinful Colors polish for you and a few comparison photos.

Sinful Colors Endless Blue - creme, 2 coats and no top coat...

How does it compare to the new SinfulShine Most Sinful? Looks like I can finally use the word dupe. I haven't wear-tested them and it may be that the SinfulShine has better wear, but as far as color and formula? Dead on dupes.

And finally, how do these compare to the other "electric blues" out there? Or as my friend Jen would say - the "punch you in the mouth blues?"

Below I've compared with Dior Electric Blue and Nails Inc. Baker Street - I tossed in Revlon Royal on the thumb and Nails Inc. Southwark on the pinky.



Electric Blue Comparison

Electric Blue Comparison

It's closest to Dior Electric Blue. Baker Street is just a smidge darker and Southwark is much darker. Revlon Royal and Southwark are close to each other, but Royal is a jelly and Southwark is a crelly.

If you missed it, I also did an earlier electric blue comparison with Rescue Beauty Lounge IKB-2012 and some others.

What do you think? Do you have any of these? How is $1.99 Sinful Colors compared to $24.00 Dior? Actually, I'm not really sure how hard-to-find Dior Electric Blue is - it may be much more spendy now.

My actual favorite of all of these is Nails Inc. Southwark because it's darker, but if you want a Baker Street or Dior Electric Blue replacement? Sinful Colors Endless Blue or SinfulShine Most Sinful is your answer!

Sinful Colors and SinfulShine polishes are available at Walgreens. Some Sinful Colors are also available at select Walmart stores.

SinfulShine with Gel Tech - Swatches



I just have really quick one-fingered swatches of 14 of the new SinfulShine with Gel Tech polishes for you. Later, I will do full swatches and update this post. Sorry about the shorties! I just had to chop them last night!

The formula was SURPRISINGLY GREAT on all of these!!! They're crelly and opaque in 2 coats. They remind me of the finish of the Barry M Gellies or the Layla Gel Effects polishes. FAB shine - no top coat for the photos. They are color-accurate except for Nouveau Purple - it's slightly more purple IRL than the pic shows. Oh and I'm Blushing is a tad thicker than the others and needs EXTRA thin coats to make it even.

Stay tuned here for full swatches!
