Nails Inc Porchester Square Dupes


About a year ago or so I received a mini of Nails Inc nail varnish in 'Porchester Square' in one of my Glossybox's. Instantly this became my favourite nail colour of all time and I wore it constantly- as in literally every day. However, with it just being a mini version it soon started to run out which meant I had to start a manhunt for a replacement. I soon realised that it was going to be quite as easy as I had hoped.

After failing to find the right shade in Nails Inc for a wee while I took to the blogesphere to find a dupe and thanks to Vivianna Does Makeup (one of the best beauty blogs out there!) I found a dupe in Barry M Gelly Nail Paint in the colour 'Almond'. With Barry M being £3.99 compared to Nails Inc hefty £11 price tag I quickly forgot about the original and stuck to Barry M. 

Again, I wore this on a very daily basis and didn't think I could find a better dupe until a No7 assistant recommended No7 Gel-Look Shine nail varnish in Porcini and I could not contain my excitement. All three of these nail varnishes are exactly the same. As in EXACTLY the same and you really can't tell the difference just by looking. 

The lighting casts a shadow on the right but the colours are all the same! 
The picture above shows each varnish on the nail below it and yet they all match exactly!

All in all my favourite would be the No7 version as it's mid-price range (£7), the best brush I've found and of course the colour matches Porchester Square perfectly!

3 versions of the same colour may be a bit much but when you love a colour that much sometimes it's worth finding the perfect dupe.
