Ulta3 Old verses New

Today I have swatches for you of the 'new' verses 'old' Ulta3 polishes that I have found.  I have said this before, but when I say 'old', I say that because the writing on the back of these bottles don't match all the current bottles. However, I have purchased all of these 'old' versions within the last month.

I have already swatched most of these with their description, so I won't go into details.

Precious - Old on the left, New on the right.  I prefer the old version.  Actually, I would love to have the colour of the old, with the foil finish and sparkles of the new.


Romance - New on the left, old on the right.  They are both similar tones, but the new version has a strong crystal shimmer and the other has more a subtle red shimmer.  So I guess it depends if you like sparkly or subtle.  I like sparkly, so the new one for me. Both three coats.

Pink colada - No comparison here.  It's not even worth picking a favourite because they are not even the same animal.  Old on the left, new on the right.  Three coats of the old one, only one coat of the new one.  I can't believe that Ulta3 can release a polish with the same name, but make it sooooo different.


Neutral - Again, not even the same animal here. I like them both. Old on the left, new on the right.


Little boy blue - New on the left, old on the right.  Hard to pick my favourite between these two, but I think I have to go with the old version.  It's more opaque (2 coats verses 3 coats for the new one) and it has a much better foil finish.


Has anyone else seen different versions of ones I don't have listed here?  I'm sure there must be others other there.
