Comparison- red polishes- Zoya Pepper, Sally Hansen Patent Gloss Moto, LA Colors Hot Blooded, China Glaze Seeing Red The Giver Collection

I realized recently that my collection was lacking in reds. It's such a basic color that I overlooked as being too boring at first, but it's a classic color and I absolutely needed more of them in my collection. Moto was the last one to join my stash and I thought it looked a lot like Pepper so I had to find out just how close they were. And then why not throw in a couple more for good measure?

All polishes are shown with two coats plus topcoat.

Zoya's Pepper is the darkest of the shades and has a beautiful, easy to apply formula. I'm so glad I got this one in Zoya's last sale.

Next is Sally Hansen Patent Gloss in Moto. You can check out my full review here. It's nearly a one coater that has great coverage and shine.

LA Colors Hot Blooded was the most finicky of the formulas. This one is a crelly so it took two coats to get full coverage vs the others which were creams and could get away with one if you were in a hurry.

Last we have China Glaze, Seeing Red from The Giver collection. The one is the brightest of the four. It also has a fantastic formula.

The tones of these four polishes are just different enough that I think it's worth keeping them all. There's just something about having red nails that makes me feel half classy and half trashy at the same time. Probably the length and points aren't helping to keep me off the trashy side, but I love it!
