Hi friends,

Hope we've been getting good mani magic lifting our lives lately.

Finally got around to swatching these last night and I choked on how closely I duped myself this go. They look almost the EXACT SAME SHADE? Are my eyes deceiving me?? Im seeing the barest hint of "is it more green or more teal? which one? yes?" when I try to spot a difference. Can someone please tell me if im crazy and these are different and both deserve to stay??

Oh the dangers of preorder windows. I always forget the ones im waiting on since they havent made it into my swatch book yet. Ill get around to finger swatching but for now, does anyone have pics comparison as well???

Im putting myself on time out for shame.

    The Arcana looks just the slightest bit more saturated but it’s so close that no one would ever notice the difference.

    Personally, I may be an outlier, I’m a bigger fan of the Arcana magnetic formula. It’s more forgiving imo.

    They are ever so slightly different, but are close enough to be considered dupes! Gorgeous green, though! Not a bad one to end up with a dupe.

  3. I have sadly duped myself this last week as well.
    Your catalog looks gorgeous, though. Can I ask what labeling stickers and swatch sticks(?) you use?

  4. Omg nooo, thank you for posting this though, I was hoping I’d find out whether they were true dupes or not

    Someone else posted about the Arcana shade being a dupe for Bog Dweller also. Do you also have that one? Would be so curious to see them all compared

    I just got A Certain Shade of Green so this is exciting me as someone who’s not interested in participating in the BKL FOMO marketing thing.

    Yup, I duped myself big time by buying the Arcana and The Horrors Persist AND a backup bottle of Bog Dweller. Listing my dupes for destash as we speak. 😂
