From the Zoya Reverie collection, I decided to wear Reece out tonight. Zoya calls this color "gilded rose metallic" but I'm calling it purple mauve with a yellow orange shimmer. Again, I have NO SUN, so you really can't see the beautiful duochrome that this is. Here's a badly focused indoor picture so you can see the yellow orange shimmer.
I must admit, getting used to the Zoya brush takes a bit. It's shorter than China Glaze but that also leaves less room for pooling in the cuticles. I had to go back and paint just the sides of my nails since I missed those the first few times. I probably could have gotten away with one coat with just a bit of VNL, but I went for two coats over Seche Natural and topped off with one coat of Seche Vite.
One "sun" picture - you can see a bit of the shimmer.
One shade picture - you can see more of the base color in this one
And one icky inside picture so you can really see the duochrome (!).
That is a beautiful color, it kind of reminds me of CG Strawberry Fields.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous, it's like a lighter version of Zoya Persiphony!
ReplyDeleteI'm not usually a pink lover, but this one has something that makes me go "oooh, pretty!".
ReplyDeleteLove the bottle pic too. :)
Beautiful colour. I agree with Gildedangel, when I saw the polish I automatically though of CG Strawberry Fieds
ReplyDeleteThis is really pretty! I like the name too.
ReplyDeleteIt's actually way more purple than pink... Strawberry Fields is a pink base. I'm hoping for some sun soon so I can do a comparison.
ReplyDeleteThis is super pretty!
