Models Own Indian Ocean

Indian Ocean is one of three new colors in Models Own Beetlejuice collection.  It's a lovely, soft blue foil with a very strong hot pink flash.  It applied beautifully, although it's somewhat sheer at two coats.  I used two coats for the swatches, but will use three when I wear it as a full mani.

As you can see, the base of the Nubar and the Sinful Colors show up much more clearly because there is less pink flash.  In the Nubar, the color combination is pretty much the same blue, but the flash is more of a peach shimmer versus the hot pink particles of the Models Own.  The Sinful Colors has a bluer base and fewer, finer shimmer particles.  They're not dupes, but they're similar enough that only hardcore polish-alholics need all three.
