I don’t know why companies do that. I mean, I can imagine why this happens, but I have no idea why don’t they just give the polish a new name, when the new version is nothing like the old one. But that’s how it is. We all know that there is gazillion versions of OPI’s My Private Jet. Well, I won’t talk about MPJ today. Today I’d like to show you six different polishes with three different names.
Essence – Carribean Sea from the Show Your Feet line used to be turquoise with a lot of green in it, now it’s turquoise with a lot of blue and with a purple duochrome, which is visible mainly in the bottle. Not as much on the nails.
Do you see the purple duchrome effect?
Essence – In The Jungle from the Show Your Feet line used to be dark green (like OPI’s Jade Is The New Black) and now it’s a light green. The difference between the old and new version is like day and night.
And the last comparison I have for you today is From Dusk To Dawn by Catrice. The old version was creme (no shimmer) taupe shade while the new version is darker and it has purple shimmer. It used to be $OPI – Metro Chic wanna be shade, while now it’s Chanel – Paradoxal wanna be shade. :biggrin:
That’s what I had for you today. Let me know in the comments which versions do you prefer?
Res mi ni jasno, zakaj firme to počnejo. Vem sicer, zakaj pride do tega, a zakaj potem ne dajo novi verziji, ki ni niti malo podobna stari verziji, kar novo ime? Ta del mi ni jasen. Ampak tako pač je. In to se dogaja pri praktično vseh znamkah. Vsem je verjetno dobro znan primer neštevno mnogo verzij OPIjevega My Private Jet. No, danes ne bom pisala o MPJ. Danes bi vam rada pokazala šest različnih lakov s tremi različnimi imeni.
Essence – Carribean Sea iz linije Show Your Feet je bil včasih zelenkasto turkizen odtenek, zdaj pa je modrikasto turkizen odtenek z vijoličnim duochrome efektom, ki je viden predvsem v steklenički. Ne kaj preveč (če sploh) na nohtih.
Ali vidite vijoličen odsev v steklenički?
Essence – In The Jungle iz linije Show Your Feet je bil nekoč temno zelen (v stilu OPIjevega Jade Is The New Black), zdaj pa je svetlo zelen. Razlika med staro in novo verzijo je kot noč in dan.
Zadnja primerjava, ki jo imam danes za vas, je From Dusk To Dawn znamke Catrice. Stara verzija je bila brez šimra, nova pa je temnejša in še z vijoličnim šimrom. Včasih je bil to $OPI – Metro Chic “wanna be”, sedaj pa je Chanel – Paradoxal posnemovalec. :biggrin:
To je vse, kar imam za vas danes. V komentarjih mi prosim sporočite, katere verzije so vam bolj všeč?
Stalna praksa. :bljak: Sem potem prejšnjič prav videla, da je In the jungle dosti svetlejši. :yes: Samo meni se zdi, da moja stara verzija pa spet ni bila tako temna kot tvoja, ampak bolj travnato zelena. :whistle:
Morda imaš še kakšno tretjo verzijo In The Jungle, ali pa samo pri meni na fotkah temneje deluje. :hmm:
I prefer the new version of the Catrice nail polish!
I think I liked the old versions better…
Wow! That’s a huge difference, didn’t even know about that, lol :D
I like the new version of From Dusk To Dawn :wub:
Yes, it’s a HUGE difference indeed. I couldn’t believe it when I first realised that. :shock:
i like the new ones a lot!
I also like the new ones (and the old ones :biggrin: ). It just bothers me, that they “discontinue” the old versions and we (costumers/nail polish addicts) even don’t know that. :(
Stare verzije so ble miljardo boljše :/
Se tepem po glavi zakaj nisem vzela še enega From dusk to dawn dokler je še bil star :/ damn..
Ko sem kupila svojega novega, so imeli na stojalu tudi stare verzije. ;) Kupila sem ga ta teden v Mullerju na Čopovi v LJ. ;)
Funny!
They didn’t have to do that, they already have a lot of shades!
Expect for the first ones (I think they’re pretty similar) they are different, are they allowed to do that?
I guess it’s not a crime, so yes they can do that. :hmm: Is it fair to the costumers? I’d say no. Do they care? Obviously not. :hmm:
Funny!

Did the companies also keep the same numbers? Very confusing…
Yes, everything stayed the same except for the contents. :yes:
Thanks so much for doing these comps! The Carribean Sea almost looks like it could be a quality control issue, but the other two are just wacky. I agree–give it a new name if you’re going to make it completely different. I had no idea there were two versions of From Dusk to Dawn–I might need to try and swap for the new one now, as I like both of those.
You’re welcome. Thanks for your comment!
