Personally I would pay no more than about $15 with tax for an extremely unique color or a limited edition color that can not be easily duped...personally I am about to test out some gelous nail colors because I love how long they can last and the variation you can get with them. But like you said polishes are like shadows and easily duped and its fun to take cheap colors, mix them and make your own color creations!
I spent $13 on some MAC nail polish, which is the most so far. I am so close to buying Deborah Lippmann's Across the Universe, which is $18 per bottle. I don't know if I will ever break my $13 threshold.
I think OPI polishes are $8.50-ish, those are my fav to buy. So I`d say no more than $10. But if it`s a color I CAN`T resist or haven`t seen before...i may splurge.
I've never used the Sally Hansen polishes before. Are they really that awesome??
I've got a cosmo license && work at Macy's. So I get a pretty sweet discount on my Nail Polishes. But I think my limit would be no more then $13.00. Unless it's a limited edition set.
I got a really close dupe to MAC Quite Cute Mischevious. With Revlon's Minted. The only difference is that Minted is a touch more Green. Plus it doesn't streak like MAC polishes do. AND I think the Revlon is all buy one get one half off at Rite Aid with your Wellness Card. :D
Great post! I just cant bring myself to spend a ton on nail polish. I too love the Sally's xtreme wear. I find it actually stays on my nails longer and doesn't chip as fast.
I'm a $7-8 kind of gal, there's probably no way I'm dishing out more, especially when I'm sure that somewhere I can find what I want for cheaper. By the brand, or a dupe that satisfies my lust for it, I know that it's probably out there and won't hurt my wallet as much! Lol
Well I pay $10 on a regular basis if I get OPI at trade secrets and those types of places. I don't like paying that much though. I would buy a Chanel, those are like $25 I think, but I've never found a colour that wow'ed me enough to.
The most ive ever spent on a nail polish is a illamasqua one which was £13.50 which is $22.50 which seems like quite a lot! I loved the colour but the nail polish itself disappointed! The sally hansen xtreme nails sound amazing, not sure if i can get them in the UK!
for me personally-- I would pay up to 12 dollars for a unique color. Not easily duped. but I agree with you I love the sally hansen brands

ReplyDeleteMy limit is $7-$8 and I'm definitely not going over that. lol
ReplyDeleteHonestly of I like the color,I have no limit!
ReplyDelete$8 is deffinately my limit!!
ReplyDeleteOPI is $13 -$15 here. I always order them off ebay. I am a cheapskate lol
If i like the shade, I buy it despite the price. My biggest splurge is Chanel
ReplyDeleteNever more than $10 for a nail polish, because I only paint my toe nails. I usually get my nails done at the spa. [Gel nails]
ReplyDeleteI find it hard to even break the $5 limit, and that's only if it's just something I -have- to get.
ReplyDeletehighest i'd splurge on is $9,thats it. I can't imagine buying a $17 nail polish.
ReplyDeleteThe most I've spent was 8 dollars on nail polish. I wouldn't go over 12 dollars though.I rather spend 12 dollars on eyeshadow.

I think $8 is my limit. & it would have to be really pretty for me to buy it @ that price. LOL great post! I agree. & I love dupes!
ReplyDeleteI can splurge a lot if I love the colour but I try to be reasonnable :)
ReplyDeleteMy limit is $7-$8 dollars...and that's if I really like the color. I generally spend about $3 at the most for my nail polishes.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all the comments <3
ReplyDeletePersonally, the max i would spend is $10 for a polish, and only if the colour is really unique and interesting :)
