OK, I officially declare this a $5 Deborah Lippmann Candy Shop dupe!

So earlier, I was wasting money time in the mall and I drifted into Claire's Accessories in search of shiny things. Immediately, my polish senses started tingling and my eye zeroed in on this pinky, rainbowy, glittery little gem:

I was all "NO WAY" (yes I literally exclaimed this out loud whilst standing by myself in the middle of the store)...then I checked out the name on the bottom of the bottle:






NO FREAKIN WAY! Talk about polish plagiarism (and I am ALL for polish plagiarism--especially when it's an $18 polish dupe for $5--but wow I've never seen a dupe that has the same exact name as the original)...


Anyway, so I basically speeded (sped?) home, busted out my nail wheel and boom:


no flash

Right is 1 coat, middle is 2 coats, left is 3 coats (yea I swatched it backwards on the nail wheel--I was so dang excited, I could barely see straight)--no topcoat. And WOW this baby is jam-packed with glitter!! And it's easy to work with, too--no clumpy glitter chunks to break up or nuffin'!

I've been googling around trying to find out if any other nail fiends have been talking about this polish, but so far I've come up with nada--so I'm stepping up on my soap box, busting out my bullhorn and shouting to the polish-obsessed masses: (clears throat)

Yes people, Claire's has a Candy Shop dupe and it's called CANDY SHOP and it's freakin gorgeous!! SO HURRY UP AND GETCHOO SOME!! 


You're welcome.

Sincerely,
your fellow polish freak on a budget
