A Zoya A Day - Dea

Hey friends

Dea by Zoya can be best described as a warm milky light brown nude creme with soft orangey undertones. A natural brown that's not too dark, especially flattering beige greige for fall.

That's quite the description for Dea, the first coat was sheer and jelly like with a very orange undertone but once the second coat was on the brown took over, very good formula, no running or pooling. Dea dries shiny and stamps nicely.

In my quest to get fit for fifty my hubs introduced me to Zwift running, this is a game like environment where you can run through different worlds using your treadmill and a runpod, the runpod calculates your run pace. 

More info can be found here -> https://zwift.com/uk/run

Its much nicer having scenery to look at rather than the bare garage where my treadmill is plus I can put my Spotify music on as well and off I go.

Dea is described as a warm milky light brown nude creme with soft orangey undertones, accurate but I think you'd only see the orange/red undertone when you see her against another brown.

Mary is described as a medium raisin cream in the classic 2-coat coverage formula. This has dusty undertones and was pretty much a one coater, I had a couple of tiny bald spots which were more user error than polish.

In the last photo you can see how close they look in the bottle but on the nail they are totally different.
