Revlon Black with Envy is of course from this collection and is probably the most well-known Chanel Black Pearl dupe to date. L'Oreal Raven's Strength is from the new limited edition Project Runway Colors Take Flight collection, and Revlon Midnight Haze is from the LE Masquerade collection.
In my opinion, Raven's Strength doesn't pull quite as green as Black with Envy, yet it doesn't pull as blue as Midnight Haze. So I actually misspoke yesterday when I said that Raven's Strength "looks a lot like the shade in the new Revlon Masquerade collection"--it did in person, when I looked at them quickly, but in photos you can really see that the differences are distinct.
It's always frustrating for me when I see these types of shades in the store and can't compare them to shades I already own, so I hope this post helps give you a bit of perspective.
Do you already own any of these shades? Are any of them worthy of "the hunt" in your opinion?
ohhh I love Raven's Strength! very pretty :) Well, they're all pretty, but I think that one is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteI think Raven's Strength is the prettiest, but with my luck, it will probably be the hardest to get my hands on. Which one is your favorite?
ReplyDeleteHonestly, looking at a polish in the bottle is very different from a swatch. The bottle ALWAYS skews the color.
ReplyDeleteThey may be quite similar after you put them on your nails. And I guess you can tell how I know that!
