Muse Collection - Bottle and Swatch Stick Comparisons - Part Two

 Hey Friends

Today I'm sharing the second half of the Muse collection, we have 6 shades, this is the much more interesting section of the collection.

Names are Zarin, Velma, Daphne, Octavia, Starling and Emery.

As always, new polish is first left and the photos are taken in natural daylight, I dont alter colour, merely crop and add my watermark to the photo, taken on a Pixel 8a phone.

So lets dive in to this set.

First up we have Zarin Nahla and Maria Luisa, no dupes, Zarin is a rose gold gold compared to Nahla and Maria Luisa.


Left to right Velma, Garbo and Ming, no dupes, Velma has a more brown undertone than Garbo and Ming is more red, Garbo has been discontinued.

Left to right Starling, Marie and Alice, no dupes, Starling is much paler than Marie and Alice, with more of a periwinkle hue, Marie has been discontinued.

Left to right Emery, Ophelia and Amara, no dupes, the tone of Ophelia matches but without those golden sparkles that Emery has, Amara is a warmer tone of brown, Amara has been discontinued.

Left to right Octavia, Giada and Mimi, no dupes, Octavia is described as a pearl, that does describe that shimmer visible in her, the shimmer in Giada is much finer and gives a metallic sheen, while Mimi has much larger shimmer particles.

Left to right Daphne, Savita and Tru, no dupes, Daphne a much more blue undertone than either Savita or Tru, Tru also has a multi-toned large shimmer particle.

There we are, I managed to get the second half done.  I've had to do some serious re-arrangement of the Zoya Wall, the yellow and orange colours are now in a helmer drawer while I add the new colours into the wall, I think my hubby and I are going to look into making some sort of wall rack that will hold everything and hopefully allow for expansion too.
