Ulta Tainted Love vs Sally Hansen Project Runway


Ulta has been coming out with collections and packaging them in mini sets. Tainted Love is apart of a five piece nail polish set called, Glam Goth. The moment I saw this polish I had a hunch that it was going to be a dupe of Canadian exclusive, Project Runway from Sally Hansen. What do you think? I'll let you be the judge:

L-R (2 coats each): Project Runway, Tainted Love, Project Runway, Tainted Love

To me, these are dupes. I prefer Tainted Love more though only for the brush. The Sally Hansen brush is too thin and long for me while the mini brush from Ulta was a good length and reminded me of OPI's Pro-wide brush. I'm very happy that Ulta made this shade so that people who couldn't get ahold Project Runway can enjoy this too!

Very pretty! I prefer Tainted Love myself, judging from the pictures!

They are very close, but to my eye, the Tainted Love is a tad darker and has a bit more shimmer. I am so glad that you swatched these. I can remove Project Runway from my Super Lemming list and just enjoy my bottle of Tainted Love. :D

Wow these two look very similar indeed but I think Tainted love has more glitter in it. For that alone I vote for Tainted love.

Close enough for me, Adrienne - awesome comparison!

I've never bought any Ulta polishes. I like this one. Guess I'd better look these up. I hope it's still available. Sure looks like a dupe to me. Since I can't get the Canadian exclusive this is pretty good. Love the shade and the glitter in it.

Glad to see some actual side by side pics! I think TL will satisfy my craving for PR ... although I'd probably still grab it if I ever ran across it LOL!

I think Tainted Love has a bit more shimmer and is a bit darker, but I don't think I would need both. :)
