Today, I have a blog post planned and written by Amber of the
Lacquer Clones Swatching group on Facebook. Below, she has a Dupe Attack for two pretty soft Essie pinks: Guchi Muchi Puchi and Raise Awareness!
P.S.: Amber doesn't have a blog, but she does tweet. If you'd like to follow her on Twitter, head over to

Last October, when I walked into Ulta and saw Raise Awareness, limited edition, sitting on a Breast Cancer awareness month display, I just couldn’t help but grab it. It is the perfect light bubble gum pink color. Unfortunately, it takes 3-4 coats to really be opaque on the nail and over the past year I’ve used up almost half of the bottle. Eep! Luckily for me, I came across a sale at my local Trade Secret store… they had several, rather old-looking boxes of Essie polishes at 75% off! Not many of the colors stood out to me as something I needed but then I saw Guchi Muchi Puchi and thought it looked very familiar. Since it was nicely discounted, I grabbed it hoping it would be a good replacement for the discontinued Raise Awareness when I ran out.
