Any time a guy has a confusing color opinion (“green pollen on my car” for example), I have to whip out the old colorblindness simulator.

They definitely have slightly different shimmers, but to be completely fair to him, Power Surge is a magnetic which he wouldn’t know from seeing an unmagnetized swatch.
(Unless OP is not AFAB, in which case sorry for assuming and dump the colourblind moron!)

Seems an apropos time to mention that roughly 8% – or 1 in 12 – men are at least somewhat colorblind…

Just remember you said in sickness and in health, he’s clearly sick, just give him a hug and a pat on the head when he tries to insist he’s not color blind. Poor poor man. 🙁

As a side note: These two shades being similar gives you the opportunity to do a really weird and fun French mani with them. Blue nails fading into green tips would be pretty cool.

not to agree with divorce but my boyfriend says “THEIR NOT EVEN CLOSE!” 🤣 so make your decision accordingly LMFAOOOOOO

One is silver and one is green lol
yanyancookies on
No lol one is more green and the other is more blue-silver
Your husband is classic man who does not get the full color spectrum, it seems. Keep both! Not dupes!

So does he know he is colorblind or…?

Nope, not even close. He can’t be trusted 🙂↔️😂

So they’re total dupes when I close my eyes to look at them, otherwise ….. yeah I’m with everyone else, this may be a colour blind check moment lol

Linry has created so much content based on her husband not being able to tell the differences between polishes. It’s hilarious if you haven’t had a chance to check her out.

The genes for color vision are sex-linked. Assuming your husband is XY and you are XX, you literally have more color receptors in your eyes than he does.

Not at all a dupe.
But this could very much be not malicious considering that many men are colorblind and don’t even realize it. Roughly 8% or more men worldwide and some form of colorblindness. And the rate for women is only 0.5%.

they’re not even cousins

Unfortunately, he’s clearly colorblind:( you can’t leave him bc of his disability, it’s a bad look (pun not intended) you’d have to manufacture evidence of some other offense first

Absolutely, obviously not dupes. Me and my bf have this argument all the time. 😅 I put my polishes in rainbow order and he will point to a row and say they’re all the same. They are wrong and that’s ok 🙂↕️

Okay but I NEED to know what they light blue in the top right corner is

Men usually get the colors to things wrong I’ve noticed

Don’t divorce him because he’s color blind divorce him because he’s minding your business! (Seriously though it is so funny the things my husband notices but I don’t. I was doing a Pinterest collage for our house and he was like “you have a 96 figurine holding a 98 sword.” Like EXCUUSE ME!)

genuine question: does your husband have some kind of red/green colorblindness? that could make those two shades look the same to him.

Absolutely not, one is green and one is blue! If anything they need to stay together in case you want to pair them up!
I’d actually be interested to ask my mom what she thinks of those two. She has trouble telling green and blue apart and turquoises blow her mind!

Ok, so it is actually not really his fault. Women can see/perceive more colours than men can, particularly green and red. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/21675035/
