Sometimes, it's funny how the camera captures a different side of a polish than what is easily seen in Real Life. For example, look at this lovely, Urban Decay Blackheart.
Pretty purple, right? Oh, and check out this badass skull on the cap. Roses for eyes, yeah, you heard me.
But, I digress. So, with a little shifting around, the purple turns green and gold. Most of us have seen duochromes before, no biggie.. though they are still so pretty.
In Real Life, Marc Jacobs Petra looked pretty much the same as Blackheart, only with a rougher looking finish. But, as soon as I put it next to Blackheart, all my pix were of the duochrome green! This was all the same color in Real Life.
They couldn't look more different here!

It was fun to get the duochrome to show up in Real Life, but so funny that I couldn't get it to go away in the pix! Have you ever had a polish look so different when you took its pix, or put it next to another polish?
Both are pretty gunmetal colors!
ReplyDeleteLike gunmetal + oilslick! I do love them both... but they are not easy on the wallet! The UD is $15 and the Marc Jacobs is $18, I think.
DeleteBoth of those polishes are GORGEOUS! I really need to get that UD one.
ReplyDeleteLots of people rave about Zodiac, the green released at the same time, too. I decided I needed to own ONE at least. That skull slays me!
DeleteSo pretty, Blackheart is one of my faves as is Petra!
ReplyDeleteZodiac seemed to be the popular polish from this release, but I couldn't resist Blackheart!
DeleteThey are so similar :)
ReplyDeleteEven more so in Real Life!
