Comparison Post: Mint Me Up - Two Fingered Salute






Yesterday I showed you Catrice Mint me Up. When this polish came out, a lot of peaople called it a dupe to Butter London's Two Fingered Salute. Since I own both, of course I had to compare them.




Both polishes have a mint colored creme base, Butter London's base is just a little more muted than the Catrice one. The Catrice has less of the copper glitters, but they added a golden shimmer.

 
Catrice, 3 coats
Butter London, 3 coats







As you can see, the two polishes are shomewhat similar, but not at all the same. No dupe-alarm here.

  1. Great comparison. I like Catrice more, the golden shimmer is more subtle and elegant ant this way the mint color is more evident!

  2. Thank you for this great comparison - I agree - no dupes at all! I only own the BL and love it for the antique feel given by the copper shimmers - en schöne Tag xxx

    1. Merci, dir o :-)

      The BL always reminds me of my trip to NYC three years ago, because it looks like oxidated copper in my eyes, just like Lady Libery :-)
