Bad Romance Vs Facets of Fuchsia

For the longest time, I've had Deborah Lippmann's Bad Romance and Revlon's Facets of Fuchsia sitting on my shelf waiting to be compared. In the past I didn't like quality of my comparison pictures, and in frustration,  I gave up and never posted my opinion. Well this time around I had lots of luck and got some great shots to share with you.

Both of these polishes are a sheer black jelly with magenta round and hexagon glitters. Facets of Fuchsia goes on a little more translucent in the first two coat. Bad Romance goes on a little heavier but both look best with three coats.

With three coats each, these two polishes in my mind are pretty much identical. Up close these are gorgeous colors. From far away, these colors don't give off enough magenta, and look like your normal black polish. The biggest difference between these two polishes is price. Revlon's Facets of Fuchsia retails for under $5 where Deborah Lippmann's Bad Romance retails for a whopping $18. With color being the same along with wear the choice is easy. 

After seeing these two swatches would you still pay $18 if you could have the same thing for less than $5? Is this a must own color for you?
