This is the last of my LA Girls Rockstar collection, and she is absolutely, absolutely lovely. Addict is a warm, deep red that leans a little towards a brick color, a jelly, and it is interspersed with tiny little gold flakies. This is three coats.
Let me give you a side picture--click on it to see that awesome depth:
So autumnal.
But the polish sounds familiar, right? I figured it'd be some sort of dupe to ChG Stroll, so I dug it out for comparison. And here it is:
From left to right: Stroll, Addict, Stroll, Addict.
Uuum, not even close, actually. Definitely related, and I don't think anybody who isn't a nail polish addict needs more than one, but there's a huge difference in color and flake. Stroll is far deeper at three coats and the flakes are heavier, sinking into the polish and giving it a pink, rather than gold, feel. Addict remains a lighter red and the flakes are both larger and lighter, thereby allowing the gold to peek through. I love both of them, and I'm not sure which I love more, so I will be keeping both. :)
And yes, I will be swatching Stroll sometime in the future! Keep your eyes open.
