Index: Julep Mischa
Middle: Zoya Myrta
Ring: Zoya Rica
Pinky: Zoya Soho Punch
As you can see, these definitely do not all look the same on
the nail. Zoya Soho Punch is very
sheer, and there is VNL with two coats. Zoya describes this colour as a coral red, but I think it is more peach. Zoya Rica is an orangey-coral, but it has some pink undertones that are
much more obvious when on the nail.
I personally would say Zoya Myrta is more of a red- orange than the
coral that the company claims, but it is still a lovely colour. What really surprised me was Julep
Mischa. I have a love/hate
relationship with the brand, and I almost always find it too thick to apply
well. Mischa was a pleasant
surprise, and I found it to be at the perfect consistency upon opening the
bottle. Mischa is very close in
colour to Myrta, but I found the former to be a tad more tomato coloured (and yes, I mean the traditional red tomato, not the crazy colours you sometimes see in heirloom tomatoes :D ).
Doing these swatches was an interesting experiment for me, and I really didn't anticipate the colours to look so different from each other. This is just further proof that what you see in the bottle does not always translate to the nail.
I hope you enjoy your week, dear readers!
