Just a small comparison
Been pretty lazy with applying nail polish lately but if I do I have been addicted to wearing minty shades~ haven't had much time to buy other mint shade nail polish but once I get more will make sure to do a comparison :)
I lined it up with light to dark shades, the HK polish is the lightest out of the three with more on a pastel blue-ish shade, the SH I would say is the true mint shade out of the 3 and Orly polish are more on the aqua shade out of the 3 shades~
consistency:
HK is the runniest out of the 3, thin consistency requires 3 coats to achieve full opacity.
Nice consistency not to runny not to thick easy to apply, need only 2 coats to achieve opacity
Semi thick consistency, a little bit on the gooey side but only need 2 coats to achieve opacity |
with 3 coats |
with 2 coats |
with 2 coats |
Overall:
I LOVE SH mint sorbet the most long lasting and fast drying polish out of 3 with the right shade of mint and the price doesn't hurt either! ^__^
well that was it for this post~
please let me know what is your favorite mint polish as well? ♥
XOXO

I really like the sally hasen mint color one! But then, i like all of them haha (i am a slight nail polish addict afterall :P)
ReplyDeleteIt will be a nice color to wear even during the winter! And btw, you have pretty nails ^^
Coming from tht-christina.blogspot.com :D
I've always loved that Orly polish on you! Your nails are so perfect babe.. I'm so jelly !!!
ReplyDeleteessie's mint candy apple is super cute too!
ReplyDeleteI have the Sally Hansen one too! From the pictures, I think that's the prettiest/mintiest color of the three.
ReplyDeleteI love mint nail polishes too! They are just so refreshing and clean on the nails! Good choices too!
ReplyDeletethese are allll so cute in shades, love hello kitty packaging^^
ReplyDeleteAll these colours a luscious!!
ReplyDeleteAll those minty greens... gorgeous! I like the Sally Hansen one, but then the Orly one has a blue tinge to it... Very pretty! Now if I could only get my nails to grow nice and long like yours :)

I like all these mint shades., but HK is the prettiest.
ReplyDeleteOoo.. I thought SH would look better but I definitely prefer the HK one on your nails ^_^
ReplyDeleteI really like the HK one! They are all pretty though~
ReplyDeleteAll the colors are so cute! I actually like the Sally Hansen polish the best too! The color is super duper pretty, and it looks the most "matte" out of the 3, if that can even be applied to these types of polishes. I guess I mean it looks to have the most smooth finish out of the 3 :) I need to stock up on more Sally Hansen polishes! I bought this really pretty aqua blue shade (when I was going through my love phase for MONDO from Project Runway!) but I never got around to actually using it. XD Could you also do a comparison with your Peripera polishes?? I just saw the picture under the "You might also like:" tab and noticed a blue one there heehee :DD
ReplyDeleteUgh I LOVE this post!! I'm still so in love with all mint shades of polish :D
ReplyDeleteLove the sally hansen nail polish :)

Thank you so much for the comparison! I think I need to give Sally Hansen more of a chance, it really looks good!
ReplyDeleteAwhh i fell in love with mint colors as well this year xD
ReplyDeleteI really liked the hello kitty one but if it take 3 coats, i usually will mess up and it looks bad ;__;
But my favorite would have to be the Sally Hansen one because of the color (perfect!). The ORLY one is just too on the blue-ish side D:
mint polish is my favourite as well! i love the SH one too - it's just the right mint. you have beautiful nails, eki!

My favourite mint polish is Essie's Mint Candy Apple- it's not too thick or runny, and it's very opaque so you only need 2 coats for good coverage. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised you didn't include Refreshmin and Mint Candy Apple in this D:
ReplyDeletethank you for posting! ithink sally hansen compliments your skin the most. :3
ReplyDeleteWOW So nice~!!! I love these colour <3 I actually recently bought a essie tiffany blue colour like these but haven't tried it yet >w< Hope it comes out as nice as yours~

I agree that the Sally Hansen one is a truer mint, but I just love the Orly one ♥ Such a gorgeous mix between blue & mint green!
ReplyDeleteI like the HK color the best! --Izumi
ReplyDeleteHybrid Hunter
Rimmel London Professional Finish line in 500 Peppermint is perfect mint color too (the name says itself), even more "mint" than Sally one ^o^
ReplyDeleteI love mint colored nail polishes, they are just so pretty and easy on the eye. I just love Sally Hansen nail polishes. they are not pricey but definitely hiqh quality.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite minty nailpolish is probably Essie's Turquoise and Caicos! :D
ReplyDeleteMint coloured polishes are so pretty. All of them look really pretty, I prefer Orly's Gumdrop because it leans more to the blue side.
ReplyDeleteI love Mint Sorbet! One of the best pastel shades out there IMO!
ReplyDeleteOoo Gum Drop!
ReplyDeletelovely colors :D !! love them all
ReplyDeleteNice mint shades :) My favorite mint shades are China Glaze Re-Fresh Mint and H&M Bella's Choice. I hear Essie's Mint Candy Apple is very popular but I don't have it.
ReplyDeleteI have the same SH nail colour! I <3 it. Actually, I'm wearing it right now lol. I also painted two thick dark blue stripes over random nails. #pretendingtobemod
