CHANEL 307 Orange Fizz and Majolica Majorca OR213: Orangey Twins!

A pop of color is pure eye candy for summer! Orange is one of my favorite colors, its fun and cheery, but it's a tricky color to wear. However, if you find the perfect shade to match your skin tone, you'll be glad with the results!
I have a few orange nail lacquers, but I find these two most flattering. Coincidentally, I found them to be really similar! 

can you tell which is which?
CHANEL 307 Orange Fizz on index and middle finger, Majolica Majorca OR213 on ring finger and pinky.

Orange Fizz is described as a "coral", but as you can see it is creamy orange with just a hint of coral. I like it because its a bright, fun color without being over the top.  Fun yet still sophisticated (typical CHANEL). I needed 3 coats to get an opaque, solid color. This retails for Php1,450 (approx. USD 31)

on the other hand, Majolica Majorca's OR213 is an orange-peach nail polish, it looks creamier than Orange Fizz and applies more streaky as you can see on my ring finger nail. I also put 3 coats on, but I already can do with 2. ;) This retails for Php225 (approx. USD 5)

both are very wearable, they're creamy and easy to apply, but CHANEL has better consistency in my opinion. If you don't like the thought of spending too much for a seasonal and trendy shade, I'd say go for Majolica Majorca's OR213 (if you want to try orange nail color), although the bottle is smaller in size, the price difference is HUGE!

 Do you like bright colored nails? Let me know what you think!

  5. I'm not a fan of orange but these look really pretty on your nails. They are both very similar in color although I do think that the Chanel one is just a tad bit brighter.

  7. Lovely! Bright colors are great for spring. I usually tend to stick to less bold colors. Light lavender shades are my current fave.

  10. LOVE THIS COLOR!! {*Wow} These two are practically identical and the Majolica Majorca is a lot cheaper than Chanel. The only thing is, Majolica Majorca is so hard to find in the states. I've been wanting to see swatches of Chanel: Orange Fizz and I think I am sold now.

  14. Pretty! I never thought about different shades of oranges. This one doesn't even look that orange. I like the packaging of the Majolica Majorca one (LOL the name was a little tricky to type out)
