Nail Dupes - Drugstore + Hightstreet

Heya!
I wanted to do this post a while back but kept on putting it off. Today I received some lovely beauty samples and the mini Nails Inc polish reminded me!
This post is to show how you don't have to splurge for a nail varnish, you could just get one very similar from Boots or Superdrug! Some of them, in my opinion are worth the money, but some defiantly are not.



Left - AVON Midnight Plum                                  Right - OPI Lincoln Park After Dark

Here I have two dark purple/violet/ almost black colours which are amazingly similar. OPI came out with this Lincoln P~ark After Dark nail varnish a couple of years ago (i believe) at a price of £11(uk). AVON's version of this costs only £6 and they are no difference in colour. The only difference I could say is that the OPI requires just one coats whereas the other needs two, but I will leave it up to you whether you think it is worth it!

Left - Nail Inc St James                                                 Right - Jack Wills Coral

Okay, I know that these two aren't very similar, but the Jack Wills one is to basically represent a red nail varnish because I know that the Nails Inc shade of red is very common, I just don't own one. The Nails Inc nail varnish retails at £11 (even though I got it in a magazine shh) and the Jack Wills is £6. I find that they both apply very smoothly and the both need two coats.

Left - Nails Inc Mulled Wine                             Right - Barry M Raspberry

Again, these two are very similar. These both are amazing quality, however the Barry M one does tend to chip a little sooner than the Nails Inc, but the colopur pigment makes it worth it! Again the full size of this Nails Inc sample is £11 and the Barry M is £2.99.

Left - OPI I'm Indi-a Mood for Love                  Right - AVON Viva Pink

I had this AVON nail varnish quite a while before I recieved the OPI as a gift and I was so happy when I did! I find this colour looks great on all skin tones and nail shape/sizes, its one of my holy grails! The OPI does prove to be a better quality in this case because it doesn't chip as soon and two coats make it appear very shiny! (ooooh). However the OPI is £5 more than the AVON...
