Comparison Series: Coral Cremes

Sinful Colors Timbleberry and MAC Scorcher

Sorry for the delay in getting this comparison of coral cremes up! It's my mom's birthday this week, so I've been running around trying to get good presents/delicious cake, etc.!

So I think that all of these are fairly close. The average person probably wouldn't want all of them. However, SinfulColors Timbleberry is definitely more red than the others. MAC Scorcher is more of a pinky coral and is a softer sort of hue than Timbleberry. Mod-ern Girl is the most different of these four polishes. It's much lighter and softer. It is also the least red/orange of these and has more of a dusty pink quality. OPI on Collins Ave is very orange in comparison to the rest of these. So, for me, I'm glad I own them all, as they do have their differences. There are no dead-on dupes. However, for the average polish user, MAC Scorcher and SC Timbleberry are pretty close. If you missed out on Scorcher/passed because of price, pick up Timbleberry!

Mmm, I love coral! The Sinful Colors and Mac are so pretty! Beatiful!

Timbleberry is an acceptable dupe for me, I would rather not spend the money on MAC. Especially since the quality of the few MAC polishes I own are hit or miss.

I'd take the Sinful and leave the rest. Collins is a bit different but I'm the average polish user so the cheapest of these would be enough for me.

Aurora's Nails- this is probably the prettiest comparison I've done! I love all of these!

Serena- I totally get where you're coming from on the MAC polish. Their quality is sometimes not the greatest. I have to say Scorcher is very good, but I also own other MAC polishes that are not so good. I happen to be a huge MAC fan, so I keep trying their polishes :).

jaljen- The great thing about the Sinful Colors is that aside from being the cheapest, it is a great quality, highly pigmented polish! So you can save $$$ while having gorgeous nails!
