Sinful Colors Kissy and Essence Choose Me! Swatches and Comparison

  I purchase Choose Me! by Essence a few weeks ago because of this review on Nails by Kayla Shevonne.  As you can see Choose Me! is a dupe for Opi's Catch Me In Your Net.  Opi is one of my favorite polishes but if I can save money, I'm all for that.  I picked it up and when I was sitting here going through all of my polishes I relized that I had a color very similar to this.  That happened to be Kissy by Sinful Colors.  My first dupe post was born!
  All I can say is that I am glad to be done with this post.  Lol.  I wore these colors for about four days straight, due to not having enough time to switch my maicures.  I worked a 65 hour week last week and that is why I didn't post very much last week.  These colors stained the skin around my nails when I removed it, but I was easily able to remove it with baking soda.  I also had a very difficult time photographing these.  These colors both shift from blue to green like no other!  It took me forever to get accurate pictures.

And now for the comparison:
This picture is not the greatest but like I said I was done with 
these colors and was ready to get them off of my nails.  So don't hate,
k?! :-)

So, they aren't exact dupes but they are pretty dang close.  I wore two coats of Kissy and three coats of  Choose Me!  I thought if I wore more coats it would get as dark as Kissy, but it didn't.   I don't know if I will be wearing either of these any time soon.  For me, they are more of a going out color, not an every day color.  I epect I will wear one the next time I go out dancing.
  There are many other dupes out there for these colors.  If you would like to see them you can view Geeky Owls blog post here.

Do you guys know of any other dupes?
