Mauvey Grey NOTD 11/26/11 and Polish Comparisons!

Today I decided to finally take off my grey and black striped nail polish and put on a new coat of polish! This fall, I've really been into mauvey greys. I took a picture of some of the choices I had in nail colors:

They all are in the similar family of purpley greys, but are all different in their own way. Click to read more on each color and to see what I came up with for my NOTD (Nail of the Day)!


Call Your Mother is the most purple out of the group. It's Sephora by OPI so the formulation is creamy and opaque even with the first wash of color.
Merino Cool is veryyyy similar to Call Your Mother but is a darker shade of purple with a little bit of darker grey undertones.
High Society is a greyish beige but it comes out a little cool and a little mauvey in certain lighting. Next to all of these other colors it definitely looks like it has more purple in it than it actually does.
Master Plan is the greyest out of all of these colors. This one is a definite grey but is a cool-toned grey.

These are all opaque and creamy shades, not any shimmer, or if there is, just a tinyyy bit.
For my NOTD, I wanted a mauvey grey but not too dark or not too light. I decided to go for High Society with a thin coat of China Glaze's Techno. I love this glitter! It has tiny shimmery glitters in it with bigger chunky hexagon shaped glitters! I love!!
