Are they the same thing? Who has a good true red color?

LavenderLayoutLady, do you have an answer for this? I don't have the Ranger red enamel. I do have some teal and some yellow, and the two liquids act almost the same, although I think the Nuvo drops seem to hold more height when squeezed into a droplet? When I got my Nuvo drops, I put a droplet of colour on each lid. The red on the lid looks a lot redder than the liquid in the jar (which looks a bit pink). I just squeezed out a drop to dry overnight so I can let you know how red it is.

Ranger Enamel Accents are a disappointment, honestly. Not one of their finer products. They lack dimension and don't dry as hard as quickly as the Nuvo Drops. It's a pass from me. But if you don't mind the flatter pancake effect and find just the right red in their range, then why not?

The dimension is one of the reasons i really this product, so it's good to know the Ranger falls a little flat. But let's be honest...I'm going to buy every bottle of red I come across until I find what I'm looking for! Lol grammadee -thanks for testing! I just got Autumn Red and Red Berry and in my kitchen lighting Neither were a true red. Maybe I'll have better luck under the Ott light. I *so* wish LSS were still plentiful!

LavenderLayoutLady , do you have an answer for this? I don't have the Ranger red enamel.

I just squeezed out a drop to dry overnight so I can let you know how red it is. I don't have any of the Ranger enamel accents, so I can't speak to their usefulness or color. I do have a red in Nuvo drops, and like Grammadee said, in the bottle it's almost a pink. Dried it is more of a red, but I wouldn't call it a true primary red. It's a nice color, though.

Not sure if this helps, but I am attaching a photo of the Nuvo crystal red under my ott light. Also have a photo of the other colours on top of their little bottles.

ot sure if this helps, but I am attaching a photo of the Nuvo crystal red under my ott light. Which red is this? Nuvo seems to have several reds. The name should be on the bottle.
