I’ve heard that Zoya’s Charla and Wet ‘n Wild’s Teal of Fortune are a dupe, so I decided to pull them and check it out. I’ve got Charla on my pointer and ring and Teal on my middle and pinky. 

Charla is a spectacular blue based polish that has teal and green micro shimmer glitter in it. I cannot even adequately describe how dazzling this is, especially when the sun hits it. It’s exactly what I’d imagine a mermaid scale to look like. It is a bit on the watery side, so I needed four coats before I got rid of the dreaded VNL.

Teal of Fortune on the other hand was a lot more blue without the same amount of green micro shimmer. It’s most definitely beautiful in its own right, but I just can’t call it an exact dupe of Charla. I am glad that I have both of them, because I’m a blue fanatic and they are both stellar pigments. 

Here is a bottle shot to show the difference:
