Revlon Whimsical

Another infamous dupe. Revlon does them very well. Although I don't own the original to compare, it does look quite similar from swatches. It's such a beautiful color. I was so glad I could get my hands on it. But honestly, I think I prefer this version and not just for the price point.

Introducing Revlon Whimsical:

bottle color

Nail Swatch:
 1 coat

 2 coats

3 coats
Then I decided I needed a base.
2 coats of the Color Club

 no base on the ring finger
2 coats of color club as a base, 3 coats of Whimsical
 different lighting

compared to Color Club bottle color

side by side bottle comparison

It's such a gorgeous color I'm so glad I found it. Honestly, I can't justify Deborah Lippman polishes (or any polish over $8 really xD) so I'm glad that I found Whimsical because I thought it was discontinued. I will say that this is definitely a polish you need to layer with a light blue. Honestly, the shade of blue doesn't really matter that much I think as long as it's a lighter blue since I've seen swatches over tons of different blues and the end result comes out pretty similar.

  1. It's cute over a base, but I don't like it on its own. I also am glad that Revlon is duping DL because I don't find her polishes remarkable enough for the price...and clearly, they aren't, if Revlon is able to successfully dupe them!

  2. That's a great combination! I'm already aboard the Lippmann train and won't be getting off of it for Revlon. But it's a great alternative that's for sure!!
