Essie Mesmerize - surprisingly opaque, almost a 1 coater, but the formula is not thick like most 1 coaters.
Comparison: Essie Mesmerize and OPI Dating a Royal - sort of close, but Dating a Royal is hard to photograph (for me) since it's a jelly.
my absolutely super dupe fave blue polish ever!!! love mesmerize!
ReplyDeleteI was torn between these two, bought Dating a Royal, didn't much care for it and then received Mesmerize as a gift. So somehow, despite not loving either of these infamous dup-ish polishes, I wound up with both. I think they're both great formulas, and fantastic straight-up royal blues, the color just doesn't suit me.
ReplyDeleteThis looks alot like the blue one from CG anchors away...
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite polishes EVER!! Absolutely beautiful. It's so different but really striking.
ReplyDeleteI quite like this!
ReplyDeletegorgeous!!

Such a pretty blue-I'm sure there are more that are dupes!
ReplyDeleteI love Mesmerize and Dating a Royal! Gorgeous colors! <3
ReplyDeleteI just bought this today! I'm soooo excited to try it out and after seeing your pictures I don't think I have much similar to it. Great colour :D
ReplyDeleteWeird question. when you say you aren't sure you want to keep it, would you sell it?
ReplyDeleteSometimes I do. I think I swapped or sold this particular polish quite a while ago!
