Avril

I’m NOT a pink person at all but decided to try this. It looks good on my brown skin but something must be off with my bottle. I admit I had it at least a yr before using, so maybe that has something to do with the drying issues. I tried 4 times polishing my nails and the first 3 times the polished smudged. Finally, the 4th try was a success...sort of. I let each coat dry at least 20 mins and unfortunately when I woke up the next day....polish was smudged and ruined. I really like this color on my skintone, I guess I just need to let it dry longer and maybe not use basecoat...not sure.

It’s a beautiful color, slightly darker than the pic (I’ve found this is a trend with Zoya colors). I’d give it a 5, but it’s too opaque to use over another color and too sheer to use on its own (unless you use 3-4 coats).

All of the nudes I have tend to lean towards a golden hue, so it was a pleasant surprise to find this pale, dusty, pinkish nude. It is just about opaque at 2 coats with visible nail line only when I hold my hand up to the light. This is a perfect office-appropriate shade for work that will likely be my new staple.

I would have loved to give this one 5 stars but the trying time for a base coat 2 nail polish coats is too long. I estimate a good 30 minutes even after waiting 5 mins between each coat. I just don’t have the patience. And for this reason I don’t wear a topcoat making the manicure only last about 2 days without chips :(
I do wear this on a regular basis and absolutely love the color. It is a perfect nude pink w/brown and matches my yellow skin-tone to a T. Very sofisticated color with no shimmer. Coverage is average when using a base coat, I think the brush it comes with is too stiff and can sometimes create streaks.
Overall, I will keep buying because of the color. I just with they would fix the drying time and the stiffness of the brushes.
