Before Gosia and I went to the orchid show the other day, we went through each other's new polishes to see what we wanted to try :) When looking through mine, Gosia wondered if piCture pOlish "Festival" was close to Finger Paints "Twisted". I happen to still have her bottle of "Twisted", so I decided to do a comparison!
First bottle shots:
These are both multicolored flakies (red, blue, green, yellow, even a little purple!) in a yellow-ish base. The base of "Festival" seems a little lighter, and the flakies seem more abundant in "Twisted".
As an aside, aren't the little sayings on the piCture pOlish bottles cute? "Come together, flake it, flake it!"
Here is one coat of each over OPI Malaga Wine:
"Festival" on the index and ring fingers; "Twisted" on the middle and pinkie. So you can see the flakies in "Festival" are more sparse, and it looks like there are bigger particles in "Twisted".
Sorry for the messy cuticles here! You can see I'm not actually perfect! :-P
And here is two coats of "Festival" compared to one coat of "Twisted":
Two coats of "Festival" on pointer and ring fingers; one coat of "Twisted" on middle, pinkie (and thumb in the last picture).
These seem pretty close! "Twisted" was part of Finger Paints' Winter 2012 collection. It is discontinued and very hard to find now! Luckily, "Festival" is still available. It can be found at
llarowe.com. It is out of stock right now, but it will be back!
What do you guys think? Are these close enough that "Festival" makes up for "Twisted"?
Yay, i don't have to get 'festival' now!!! thank you so much for this comparison!!!
