Red and Wine Holographic Polish Comparison


Today I have a red/wine holo comparison that I randomly threw together. In a group I’m in, someone posted a bottle shot comparison of Enchanted Polish June 2013 and Elevation Small Batch Prototype Socompa and I wanted them on my nails. June 2013 arrived today, so I put it on along with other red holos I have.

Two coats of each polish.

Thumb: Enchanted Polish Stay Classy, San Diego
Index: OPI Crim-sun
Middle: Enchanted Polish June 2013
Ring: Elevation Polish Socompa
Pinky: Cirque Polish Vesuvius 

Stay Classy, San Diego is well pigmented and a much brighter red. OPI Crim-sun is somewhat frosty and much thinner formula (that would not dry on me! I smudged my nail three times, sigh). I have to say I’m not in love with June 2013 but it is my birthday month. The base is kind of mauve, and not the good kind (to me). Elevation Socompa is much darker leaning more red-wine than red. Lastly Cirque Vesuvius is a much darker red than appears in the bottle but actually comes close to Socompa (but lacks the purple undertones). 

I've taken pictures in all different lighting to help you see the colors.

No two are alike, so I will keep them all! Hope this was helpful!
