Darling Diva “Sassy Ass Mouth” Vs. NailNation 3000 “Matters of the Heart”

Darling Diva “Sassy Ass Mouth” Vs. NailNation 3000 “Matters of the Heart”

Comparison – dupe or not dupe?

I got a request in an email yesterday from Candy. She wants to see how close Darling Diva's Sassy Ass Mouth (SAM) is to NailNation 3000's Matters of the Heart (MOTH). Are they dupes or not? Read on and find out.

Here are the two beautiful polishes lined up side by side. 

The colour looks quite similar at the first glance.

I caught way more holo flame in MOTH than in SAM.

I applied two coats of each on a swatch stick.

Here they are, photographed with flash.

I don’t know if you can see it on the picture, but SAM is a wee bit richer than MOTH. The holo flame in SAM is coarser than MOTH’s flame is – the “grains” aren’t as fine.

It’s in lower lights you can tell them apart. Left is SAM, a bit richer than MOTH. MOTH is more willing to show a rainbow in lower lights than SAM.

Here’s an intentional blurry picture that reveals that these two beauties aren’t dupes.

Thanks to Candy for making me do this, it was really cool! ♥
