Nubar Faded Jeans VS OPI What's With The Cattitude?

I am so done with being sick; I really miss blogging! Tonight I had enough energy to swatch Nubar Faded Jeans and compare it to OPI What's With The Cattitude? First here's Nubar Faded Jeans on its own:


Faded Jeans is a pretty pastel blue with a very subtle pearly shimmer. It's perfect in three coats, and though it's a pastel the application is quite smooth and easy. They did a very nice job on the formula. This is the Nubar Jeans version of Chanel Coco Blue, but unfortunately I don't have that one to compare it to. I can, however, compare it to OPI What's With The Cattitude?, a pale blue creme.

Index & ring: Nubar Faded Jeans. Middle and pinky: OPI What's With The Cattitude?


The most obvious difference is that Cattitude is a creme without the subtle shimmer that Faded Jeans has. Cattitude is also just half a shade lighter. It also requires three coats and is pleasantly easy to apply for a pastel.

Joining the BLUE trend!

In hopes of deterring myself from paying outrageous prices for the new Chanel blues (Les Jeans de Chanel) I have swatched four blue crèmes to satisfy the craving for BLUE!

OPI What's With The Cattitude? is a nice baby blue. Like all pastels, it was a little streaky to apply but it easily evens out in three coats.


OPI Just Groovy is a brighter sky blue. This is two coats.


OPI Dating A Royal is well-loved for a good reason. It has a jelly consistency, which makes it very shiny, and takes three coats to be opaque.


Finally here is China Glaze Calypso Blue. It has a thick, somewhat sticky consistency but it's easy to control during application. This is a great navy blue that is very dark but still obviously blue and not black.


So, still fantasizing about Les Jeans?
I admit I still kind of want Coco Blue. I would love to know how it compares to What's With The Cattitude? and China Glaze Bahamian Escape or China Glaze Caribbean Blue.
