NOTD: Essie Mink Muffs

I totally have a crush on Jaques, as in You Don't Know Jaques by O.P.I. The.Prettiest.Taupe.Ever. I do not own it though.. yet! What to do? Use the next best thing of course, Mink Muffs by Essie! It's more brown than YDKJ but still a pretty good substitute in my opinion. I absolutely love it!

This was a tough cookie to photograph, it's slightly more grey in real life but I just couldn't get the camera to capture it.

Think this bottle picture might be a little more color accurate.

I don't know what to call this color, it's not really brown and it's not really taupe, it's somewhere in between. Brown'ish taupe? Taupe'ish brown? It's gorgeous anyway, can't believe it's been sitting in my Helmer untried for so long! I got the whole collection right as it came out and just now grabbed this bottle for the first time. What was I thinking?! It applied really well, but was a little bit sheer, it took 3 to 4 coats to get it opaque. I'm sure I could have gotten away with only 3 coats but I'm a perfectionist and had to do 4.

That's all for today!
Have a nice day and thanks for reading!

NOTD: Zoya Kalista

Today I'm wearing one of my new Zoya polishes. This beauty is called Kalista. It's a gorgeous shimmery brown color, really fall'ish. I think it's flattering on my fair skin. It reminds me of Orly Golden Maharaja but I think Kalista might be a little bit warmer and more red toned.



I love the look of the Zoya bottles, they look clean and classy somehow. Really appealing to me!

I had zero application issues, the forumla was great and I only took 2 coats to get it opqaue. Can't wait to try the other colors I got!

Thats all I had for you today!
Thanks for reading :)
