Comparison: Butter London Love Jubbly vs. Sally Hansen Rockstar Pink
While shopping Butter London's Autumn/Winter 2012 collection, I had a feeling I'd seen Lovely Jubbly before. I couldn't make the connection, so I bought it anyway. Of course, it clicked as soon as I got home:
 |
| Sally Hansen Rockstar Pink, Butter London Lovely Jubbly |
 |
| 2 coats Rockstar Pink, 3 coats Lovely Jubbly |
I'm usually super nitpicky about what I call a dupe, and I have no problem calling Sally Hansen Rockstar Pink a dupe for Butter London Lovely Jubbly. Or is it the other way around since Lovely Jubbly is newer? The only difference is that Rockstar Pink is slightly more dense than Lovely Jubbly. There is really no need to own both of these, though.

I wanted to try to show the slight difference in the opacity of these glitters. I do prefer the look of Lovely Jubbly layered, but again, it would be ridiculous to suggest owning both of these.
The formulas we comparable. I had no issues applying either one, and the consistencies were not too thick or thin. I prefer the SHXW brushes to Butter London's.
I would suggest skipping Lovely Jubbly (unless you collect BL) and going for the much more cost efficient Rockstar Pink.

Great comparison! It's good to know that these are dupes. I've had Rockstar Pink for a while, so I'm glad I don't have to pay $14 for the Butter London.
ReplyDeleteim glad you did this post. the moment i saw the pres release i knew these two had to be dupes
ReplyDeletenice post- BL polishes i own seem to be dupes left and right of something that came before them. they do have a few unique ones though!
ReplyDeleteGreat comparison - I have Rockstar Pink in my stash, forgotten & unloved. Now I can put that $14 towards another polish. :)
ReplyDeletesuuper dupes, how does this happen so often!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to get the Sally hansen one today!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much, I have rockstar pink, and was looking at it the other day, and I saw this one in the Ulta circular and thought of picking it up. That's fourteen dollars to be splurged on another polish, lol :)
ReplyDeleteI'll definitely get the SH polish. I've been meaning to get that one any way because I've seen it used in a Black Knight dupe.
ReplyDeleteWhoa, yea those are definitely dupes! I'm glad there is a cheapy option, for glitters which I wear rarely I don't really like to splash out on them. Thanks for the heads up Lola!!
ReplyDeleteThat's great! Did you get anything else from the collection?
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's kind of a bummer to have a dead on dupe like this, but at least I can save some people some money.
ReplyDeleteReally? Which ones do you have? I haven't been able to dupe very many of my BLs.
ReplyDeleteAwesome! And be sure to give Rockstar Pink some love. It's quite pretty!
ReplyDeleteI don't know, and I don't like it!
ReplyDeleteYes, it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYou're quite welcome!
ReplyDeletei was able to dupe out henley regatta with loreal blue marine. trout pout with sinful colors island coral. the black night with a few different polishes...if i think of any more or remember the black knight dupes i'll let ya know.
ReplyDeleteI *think* i saw sale stickers on the SHXW at Ulta, but I may be wrong. Either way, yes, def get this!
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome! That's great reasoning. Same reason I don't like to splurge on super colorful makeup. I know I won't wear it often!
ReplyDeleteOh wow! I own all of those. I see a lot of comparing and purging in my future.
ReplyDeleteFound the Sally Hansen one for $1.75 at Walmart. I'd say that's a steal compared to Butter's overrated $15 price tag. Sally Hansen is a trusted brand too, so no complaints.
ReplyDeleteThese glitter nail polishes are beautiful, both colours and designs are absolutely gorgeous. Keep sharing about these quality nail products, glad to come across this. Great blog. Nail polish set online
