$0.49 Deborah Lippman "Bad Romance Dupe"? Possibly...


Hot Topic no name nail polish that came in a set for $0.98, making this polish $0.49.

3 Coats + 1 Coat NailTek Top Coat. Day 3 of mani.
I think the top coat I used made this polish less pretty. It was quite shiny on its own. 
IRL this polish is absolutely gorgeous. I couldn't seem to capture its beauty. Probably cause I waited until the 3rd day to snap pics.  I don't actually own Bad Romance so I can't say for sure, but judging from others' swatch pics, I'd say this nail polish is a pretty good dupe. Try it for yourself if you can still find this set at Hot Topic! It might be even cheaper now. 

What do you guys think?

Hot Topic Teal Glitter Swatch

Hot Topic's no name nail polish. Clear base w/ teal & blue glitter.  
3 coats + 1 coat Out The Door top coat.

 Application was tricky. The brush is wide and long and the top is short so you have to control your strokes without much surface to hold on to. The formula was slightly goopy, but i'm not sure if that's due to the bottle/brush design. 
Each coat came on jelly-like and it took longer than typical glitter polishes to dry. Despite the bad brush design, I am loving this color! Feels kind of festive. =)


I think I need more Hot Topic nps! =)
