Saturday Shakedown: Medium Yellow Shimmers

Happy Saturday! :) Apologies in advance for the terrible lighting in this swatch...it was 6:32am when I swatched this. :p

Sarah Says: I got Yellow Fever in last year's RBL 50% off sale. And, of course, it's fabulous. The formula is lovely, and it's got this gorgeous multi-tonal shimmer. There's definitely some blue and some pink going on in there. Yum! However, I will be the first to admit that $18 is a hell of a lot for a bottle of polish. So, here are the alternatives. China Glaze Solar Power isn't exactly the same, but I think it is a reasonable alternative. It's a bit darker, and the shimmer is more of a standard silvery color, but it is cheap and readily available at Sally Beauty Supply, or at your favorite etailer. Yellow Bikini is much lighter, and with very subtle shimmer, so it's not really a dupe...but it is pretty. :)

Jason Says: I never have much to say on comparison swatches. Everything has already been said. LOL. Take your pick ladies and gentlemen. Let your eyes be your guide. :D

Have another alternative to RBL Yellow Fever? Favorite yellow shimmer? Hope everyone is having a great weekend so far!

  1. Wow i wish i could wear yellow nail varnish, i love it. But my skin is fair and yellow tends to look much better on darker skin.
