Comparison Thursday: Light Green Cremes

Time for another comparison!  Now, I've already done a light green creme comparison, which you can see here.  However, it wasn't very good and didn't include pretty much any of these polishes.  So, we get Light Green Cremes Part 2!

Purchased by Me

Elevation Polish Mount Yu, OPI Feel the Mo-Heat-Toes Green, OPI Damone Roberts 1968, and OPI Thanks a Windmillion.

Mount Yu

Mount Yu is the only shimmer in the bunch.  It's definitely sheer, but not the most sheer of the batch.  Application was easy, but it had a streaky first coat.  I absolutely love this brush because it's the thinnest of the group, which makes application much easier.  It achieved opacity in three coats.  Dry time was a bit on the longer side, but I used a quick dry topcoat for my photos.  Sadly Mount Yu has been discontinued, but you can purchase other Elevations here.

Feel the Mo-Heat-Toes Green

Mo-Heat-Toes was the sheerest of the bunch.  It's closest in color to Mount Yu minus the shimmer, but they're not duplicates.  It's almost a jelly or crelly.  The first coat is streaky, but the formula was great and didn't flood my cuticles despite the giant brush.  It was pretty much opaque in three coats, but I did four just in case my camera picked up bald patches that I couldn't see myself.  Dry time without a topcoat is average, but I used a quick dry topcoat for my photos.  Mo-Heat-Toes was a Cosmoprof exclusive polish, but I do believe you can find the minis at TJ Maxx.

Damone Roberts 1968

The base color of DR falls right in the middle of Mo-Heat-Toes and Windmillion, but it leans way more yellow than any of the polishes in this grouping.  It is much more pigmented than the first two, but also a little thinner than them formula-wise.  Sadly, the thinner formula made application with OPI's giant brush a giant pain in the butt.  Luckily, I only needed two coats for full coverage, but I used three coats for my photos.  Dry time without a topcoat is average, but I used a quick dry topcoat for my photos.  I purchased this straight from the DR website here.  It's a bit pricier than most OPIs, but it was one that was discontinued for quite a while.

Thanks a Windmillion

TaW is the darkest of the group and leans a little more dusty-sage than the vibrant green of the other three.  It has hands down the best formula of the group, with easy application and almost opaque in one coat.  I'm sure if I did a thicker coat, I could easily do one coat.  I did two coats for full opacity in my photos.  Dry time without a topcoat is average, but I used a quick dry topcoat for my photos.  TaW was part of the Holland release a few years ago, so it's no longer being produced.  However, you can still find it easily in most drug stores or salon supply shops.

So, do you have any of these?  Which is your favorite?
