BATTLE OF THE DUPES #24: Essie vs. Lottie London

I saw online that Lottie London has a dupe for Essie Sugar Daddy so thought I would try it out.

I have a bottle of Essie Sugar Daddy but it is almost all gone so I purchase a new bottle to try it out with when I do this battle and as you can see by the picture above there is a difference between the new and the old bottle in colour. I am going to battle it out with the new bottle.

PACKAGING (Essie):

• Squared bottle

• Brush is round

PACKAGING (Lottie London):

• Rectangle bottle

• Brush is squared

Prepped my nails using OPI bondaid and Essie base coat.

From left hand to right hand I have got Essie, Lottie London, Essie, Lottie London, Essie, Lottie London, etc.

Second coat and I can clearly tell this isn't a dupe.
