Zoya Naturel Deux (2) Collection - Review & Swatches
*PR samples
Hello lovelies,
I've got here another collection, this time it's Zoya Naturel Deux (2). It's full of purple and brown colour that will be great for this Autumn. This collection has been created following the original Naturel collection which I've reviewed here. The Naturel collection was lighter and great for all-year-round wear, Naturel Deux (2) is full of darker shades for the A/W season.
Madeline - mauve purple creme. Madeline is the lightest of the three purple shades in this collection. It has easy to apply formula and two coats were fully opaque. It dried fast and smooth.
Aubrey - dark mauve purple creme. Aubrey is a darker version of Madeline and a very nice office-friendly shade great for Autumn season. I again needed just two coats for full coverage and I've had no problems with application.
Marnie - dark plum creme with warm undertones. Marnie is, of course, even darker purple creme, very similar shade family as the previous two. They go together very nicely. I'm wearing two coats.
Spencer - light beige creme. Spencer is one of those slightly darker 'nude' colours but still quite chic. I've applied two thicker coats because the polish was drying fast and when I tried to apply thin coats it was patchy. Thicker coats were just fine.
Chanelle - milk chocolate creme. This shade is not doing it for me but I've never been a huge fan of browns. Chanelle applied easily and 2 regular coats were fully opaque. It also dried fast and smooth.
Emilia - dark chocolate brown. Emilia is the darkest colour in this collection and I like it best from the brown shades. It will be nice for A/W season. The formula was a bit tricky - it dries fast so I needed to apply thicker coats. It's also watery and the pigmentation is lower so I would apply thick coats anyway. This is two thick coats.
This collection might be boring for some but if you have restrictions on nail polish at work then you might be happy to see Naturel and Naturel Deux collections coming out. All the polishes had generally good formula, only couple had minor flaws. My favourites from this collection are definitely Marnie and Aubrey.
Zoya polishes are available at Zoya.com (US), at The Nail & Beauty Link (UK) and at Nail Polish Direct (UK).
