Sally Hansen So Much Fawn (left) English Rose Essence (right) |
My first dupe post! And it's between Sally Hansen's 'So Much Fawn' and Essence's 'English Rose'. I brought both polishes for completely different reasons. 'So Much Fawn' because I wanted a coral creme and 'English Rose' because I wanted a dusty/murky rosy pink polish. But after wearing 'English Rose' last week bells started ringing in my brain and I begun to think that it was a possible dupe for 'So Much Fawn'. As Sally Hansen polishes can be over 6 times more expensive than Essence polishes I decided to compare the two. The sun is shinning today and it is a lovely warm day. Perfect for some swatching. Ok anyway I should stop babbling and tell you what's what.
I would describe 'So Much Fawn' as murky pink toned coral. It is a lovely shiny polish, requires only one coat and dries quickly and is non-streaky. On the other hand 'English Rose' is a tad murkier and more 'burnt' (?) and instead of being coral it is a dusty rosy pink. Ok well I am totally hopeless at describing polish colours and I'm not feeling very confident in my descriptions!!!!

Obviously 'So Much Fawn' is less pink (and more orange-y) than 'English Rose' and 'English Rose' is less crisp and a little darker than 'So Much Fawn' however they are extremely similar. I'm not super-fussy and would say these are dupes (and feel a little ashamed to have both) but if you are really into your oranges and pinks,
there is a difference however slight it is. Would I own both of these polishes? If they were both expensive polishes I would say no but because the essence polish only costed $2.75 I'm not feeling too guilty.....well a little bit.....
I hope you enjoyed this post, please feel free to comment below and let me know what your thoughts are. Are these two polishes dupe or not?
