Hey guys!
I'm so glad to see that so many of you liked my business cards! I started giving them out today to some friends and co-workers and I received a lot of positive feedback from them as well. I'm so happy that I got them!
And a number of you asked about the pricing and it's something I probably should have included in the original post but I'll mention it here instead.
I got 400 cards printed which cost $68.99 and the card holder cost $4.99.
Yesterday, aside from my post about my business cards, I also did a review and showed you swatches of the new Orly Happy Go Lucky Collection. Since most of the shades seemed dupe-able, I asked you to tell me what shades you would like to see me compare them with and I got a number of good suggestions.
Today I'll be comparing Frisky, a light teal cream colour, with other shades from the same colour/finish family. Luckily I have all of the shades that you guys asked to see it compared to so I was able to satisfy all of your requests.
Keep reading for the comparison!

As you can see, none of these are true dupes for Orly Frisky and this comparison really helped to solidify what I said about this shade in my original review - that it's a really blue-based teal. This is especially noticeable here because most of these other shades are less blue-based and have more of a green tint to them.
I think the closest to being a dupe here would be China Glaze For Audrey but Frisky is clearly brighter. As well, the formula of Frisky is far superior to that of For Audrey, which is a little too thick for my taste.
This comparison did help to find another similar pairing though - Orly Gumdrop and China Glaze For Audrey are actually pretty close to one another in terms of colour. Again, they're not total dupes but they're pretty close, even closer than the comparison between Frisky and For Audrey.
I'll keep working on comparisons for the rest of the Happy Go Lucky Collection for you guys.
What do you guys think? Are any of these shades close enough to Orly Frisky to deter you from picking it up?
