As it turns out, Deborah Lippmann is also a huge Broadway fan, and in honor of Wicked's 10th anniversary (October 30th, to be exact) she created a mini polish trio that pays homage to the show.
Here's a better look at the three polishes:
The three polishes are: Popular, Defying Gravity, and One Short Day. Each polish is 8ml/.27fl oz.
Popular is described as "Glinda's glittering pink". It's a semi-sheer, saturated pink that immediately reminded me of Chanel Tentation in terms of the color.
I compared it to Chanel Tentation and found that the effect is similar, but the Chanel is darker, more saturated, and opaque in one coat. This is 3 coats Popular vs 2 coats Tentation:
Defying Gravity is described as "Elphaba's unlimited green." It's very close to the MAC Landscape Green pigment that's used by the actual production. I know I didn't have anything like this (emerald creme that reads slightly flat), so I didn't pull any comparisons:
One Short Day is described as "positively perfect emerald." It's the glitter of the group, although the glitter is smaller than most Deborah Lippmann polishes.
Bottom Line: I didn't have dupes for any of these colors in my extensive nail wardrobe, so I think they're a great addition for just about everyone. Broadway lovers will love the nod to the show, and nail polish lovers will just love the colors.
Pricing/Availability: $29, via Deborah Lippmann's website or Sephora.
