Comparison: OPI Elephantastic Pink and China Glaze Mom's Chiffon

These are actually really similar. China Glaze Mom's Chiffon is much brighter than it looked in China Glaze's swatches and pictures. It's not quite neon, but it's nice and vibrant. OPI Elephantastic Pink is very similar in tone and color, but it's more sheer. It takes three coats to be completely opaque, but it looks really nice with two coats.


This is OPI Elephantastic Pink, taken in shade.

Pretty close, right?

  2. Thank you for the comparison! Maybe I'll have to shop Elephantastic pink after all, I had a crush on it before but then I forgot all about it.

  3. I've been wanting to get both of them but after seeing how close they are, I think I'm gonna go for Elephantastic (love ProWide). Thanks so much for the pics Scrangie! :D

  6. Great comparison! You read our minds...Scrangie, any chance that one of these beautiful pinks is similar to MAC Lola Devine (if you happen to have it)? I love how Lola looks on swatches so I am desperately searching for a dupe. I have been told in the MUAnb that Lola's dupes could be Elephantastic or OPI Back to the Beach Peach (discontinued). What would you say? A Gazillion thanks :)

    I have Back To The Beach Peach, but don't have a picture of it. I don't think that one is as close, but I can snap a quick pic if you'd like.

  8. Oops, I forgot to mention how similar it was.

    If you can tell by the pic, it's slightly peachier than OPI and China Glaze, but it is quite similar. OPI's formula is better anyway :D

  14. I discovered Elephantastic Pink recently and I love it! It's perfect for me, I have pale skin and it's not too bright but gives me the 'pop' of pink that I crave.

    Cheers!
