Malia by Zoya can be best described as a light, dusty cool toned violet-lilac creme.

A pair of gorgeous creams, these look very similar in the bottle but are totally different on the nail.

Delia is gorgeous, I love the pink undertone, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, this could totally be a one coater if you did a careful application, Delia stamps nicely. I dont know if I'd call this amethyst though? I have a bracelet with amethysts and they are a deep dark purple, I know that newer finds of the gemstone are a paler colour though.

Malia has a lovely blue/periwinkle tone, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, I had just the tiniest bald spot on my ring finger so did two coats, Malia also stamps well. 

I've included two versions of the nails taken in natural light because the first time I didnt see the giant cat hair until I added the pic and enlarged it and when I went to retake the pic the second time I have a dent on my nail. Some days it just doesnt go well.

Its quite interesting looking at the collection pics as you can see that Zoya like a theme, the collection from 2009 is echoed in the 2018 collection.

At the end are two pictures of the gemstone amethyst, the first could be the insporation pic for the polish, the second is the colour of the stones in my bracelet.
