Colors by Llarowe; Oops, She Did it Again!

Hello and happy Tuesday! Today is going to be wonderful!  Why you ask?  Because I'm on my fourth cup of coffee and everything starts to get shiny at that point. :-)  Did I tell you I received a Keurig for Mother's Day?  I did and I am estatic.  I've wanted one forever (I love my coffee) and this one is awesome!  It's the K70/K75 Platinum brewer.  I am seriously spoiled.  A HUGE dollop of love shoved my husband's way. <3  Thank you honey!! I'll have to showcase it here sometime soon.  Maybe with homemade coffee cake. ;-)

Today, though, I have for you a comparison.  I love, love, love blurples.  You know, blue/purples...those colors that can't decide which they are?  Yup, them.  So, when Llarowe came out with Colors by Llarowe and created Smooth Criminal, I snapped that baby up.  It is a gorgeous, deep blurple holographic polish.  You'll see in a minute.  But then some prototypes and/or error polishes were released on a limited basis (Leah Ann, the owner of Llarowe, calls them Oops!) and there was another amazing blurple.  Yes, I tracked it down.  It immediately reminded me of Smooth Criminal.


Oops is on the left and Smooth Criminal is on the right in the below photo.



Oops is the top one in the below photo.


Oops on the bottom in the photo below.




And...on the nail.  Oops is on my pointer and ring finger here.  Can't really tell a difference, can you? :)



While there are slight difference (Oops is a tad darker, less holo, and has bright blue sparks in it) they are very much alike. This is good news to all out there that may have had a hankering for this particular Oops.  No need to go searching high and low, anxiously wanting to pay an arm and a leg for it.  Both are gorgeous!  I hope this post helped someone.

Until next time! <3

  1. Lovely.

    So, that is the older bottle Smooth Criminal or the newer bottle? (the older, correct?) Do you know if there is a color/finish difference of the old vs new?

    1. Older bottle Lauri. <3 I only have the older style bottle so I'm unsure how the old one compares to the new.

  2. Oh yea! Love my Keurig too! That Oops is gorgeous, but then so are most all the CbLs. Nice to know, though, that I don't have to hunt it down. :)
