Anyway, I'm not here to talk about fashion. Today's short but sweet post is a comparison of some of the minty shades in my nail polish collection. XD I've chosen 4 shades that are most similar to one another and swatched them side by side to compare.
Left to right:
- MAC "Salad Dressed"
- China Glaze "For Audrey" (review here)
- Topshop "Pool Party"
- Elianto "S06"
Up close, you can clearly see the differences between the 4 nail polishes. MAC "Salad Dressed" is darker and leans towards the teal side of the spectrum (greenish blue), while Elianto "S06" is more of a turquoise shade. China Glaze "For Audrey" is said to be the closest to Tiffany blue, and Topshop "Pool Party" is certainly close enough, with just a touch more turquoise in it.
Personally, I find CG "For Audrey" and Topshop "Pool Party" to be the most flattering on my hands, and Elianto S06 is great if you prefer a brighter version. MAC "Salad Dressed" is definitely NOT my favourite because it makes my fingers look red and dull. (>_<)

I actually realised I don't own any mint nail polishes although it's one of my favorite colours! I actually find myself leaning towards the Topshop one instead of China Glaze!
Hmm it's time for a nail polish hunt! Thanks's for the comparison! =D

I have plenty of teal, minty and torquise nail polishes as well =D

M.May: Glad you found my post to be helpful! :D I like the Topshop one too, although I wish the bottle was bigger, haha!
Leimun: Yes, it's matches with almost anything! XD Thanks for dropping by~
Camy: Hehehe... Everybody's going minty! :P
I bought mint color from Etude House, it's small but the color is very nice. U should try it. :)
I have a mint colour nail colour from Etude House too :)
Thank you for comparing all your mint colored nail polishes! I have to agree Topshop in Pool Party looks hot on you. :)
Mac & Topshop one is so nice! Etude house nail polish dries up easily and hard to apply. I haven't tried Mac & Topshop before thou !
You can make really pretty ombre nails with these colors !
I don't have any mint nail polishes, but dying to get some now.
Laura, I'm so sorry, but I really didn't have any more space left in my luggage (already overweight) so I couldn't get you the masks. Sorryyy
I own the Mint Candy Apple by Essie.. such a good color!

Evelyn G.: Thanks for the suggestion! Will definitely go check it out; I love Etude House nail polishes. :D
Choi Yen: Haha, looks like I gotta check it out then! :)
Ahleessa: Aww... Thank you! :)
Carolyn Tay: The MAC one is actually my least fave coz it look rather dull in person. >_< The Topshop one is definitely a keeper though! :D I find that Etude House nail polish can be a little hit-or-miss, but basically quite good, haha.
Jerine: Oooh, good idea! I have to try it one of these days. XD
Joey: Go get some! :D So sorry for replying here so late (was sick T_T) but it's alright. :D I totally understand the baggage overload situation, haha.
Viv: Ooooh cool! But Essie is pretty hard to find and quite expensive here in Malaysia T__T
blackberryfashion: Thank you! ^^
cominica: Hehe, thank you! :D I think these minty pastel shades will suit most ppl. :)
