Not too shabby!Īll in all, I was surprised to have three neon yellow polishes in my collection, and even more shocked when each shade turned out to be a bit different. Thus, I decided to keep two out of three. Milani’s Totally 80’s is a great polish to rehome, and because it is a retired shade, people might be looking for it. Because I’ve made a dent in the Julep polish, I decided to keep it as well. Then, I decided which of the two remaining polishes to destash. I first decided to keep Spoiled Did I Dye It Too Blonde? because I’ve used up a significant part of that bottle, and I’ve had it since I started this blog. From left to right, I’m wearing the Spoiled, the Milani, and the Julep. Once I tested out all three polishes it was clear that each shade is a little bit different. So far all of the polishes are seemingly great, so it’s going to come down to the side-by-side comparison! I remember disliking Nikki when I first tested it out, but for some reason I liked it much better this time around! Nikki is definitely a more green-toned yellow, but the formula is great and nearly opaque in two coats. This polish is actually retired now, so it would be difficult to find it in stores. I was happily surprised to find that Totally 80’s has a great formula, and decent coverage in two coats. I purchased this polish at the Street Fair Cosmetics booth here in NYC for just $1.00, but never wore it. I always wear a white base under a neon yellow to brighten the shade anyway, so a sheer formula isn’t a big factor in this round of Dare to Compare. I’m wearing three coats in the photo above, and as you can see it is not opaque. Spoiled sells for just $1.99 retail price at CVS stores, and even goes on sale for $0.99! Did I Dye It Too Blonde? is a good polish, but very sheer. Let me show you the three neon yellows I had, and which I decided to keep.įirst up is Spoiled in Did I Dye It Too Blonde? This is the first neon yellow I’ve ever purchased, and is also the most affordable. It turns out I owned three polishes in the neon yellow shade, so I tested each one to see if I could get rid of any as part of The Great Polish Destash. Happy Wednesday! After tackling the orange nail polish in my collection, I moved onto the yellows and decided which ones I should keep.
