While wearing Contrary Polish's The Mellower Season, it reminded my of another Contrary Polish from a previous "A Box, Indied": Darling Wildflower of the may box.
In a direct
comparison, these two are not at all dupes, but definitely related. Both
polishes have a purple jelly base with redd-ish copper glitter. The Mellower Season has a darker base and the glitter is more dense. The glitter polishes have a copper color, while the glitters in Darling Wildflower are redder.
I wear The Mellower Season on my pinkie and middle finger, Darling Wildflower on ring and index, three coats each, plus topcoat (KBShimmer Clearly On Top).
Contrary Polish are available at Llarowe, Femme Fatale, Mei Mei's Signatures, Norway Nails and Rainbow Connection
(UK only).Both polishes shown were part of "A Box, Indied" and are not available separately.
On the bottle shot I would have said it's the same polish but yes definitively different! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny how sometimes polishes look almost the same in the bollte but quite different on the nail, and with other polishes it's just the other way round :-)
DeleteGreat comparison! They're both pretty. For this season I'd probably reach for The Mellower Season more though.
ReplyDeleteSo Contrary Polish made the right choice in releasing Darling Wildflower in spring and The Mellower Season in fall :-)
DeleteBoth colors look great:)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like them, Helena :-)
