Press Sample
Hello all! I am just over here grumbling because the snow from the January storm finally mostly melted and we are currently experiencing a blizzard with 2 feet of snow expected! I think there's 18 inches out there already with 40+ mph winds. No more! Anywho, I always like to do some quick and dirty comparisons of Zoya colors because many have similar vibes and your girl refuses to get another Helmer (which has also doubled in price, ugh!) so let's take a look!
Octavia vs. Giada
This one is for Tami! I actually love Giada and pull it out quite a bit. So I was also excited to see if these were close...but they are not! Octavia has looks of flecky sparkle and leans a little more blue than Giada.
Daphne vs Vesper
These are fairly close. Vesper is dustier and more blue vs Daphne. They are clearly different, but I am not sure I need both. I lean toward Vesper here.
Vee vs Samara vs Trudith vs Odette
Zoya loves these dusty and murky purples. And so do I! Honestly, I am not sure I need all of these. As I continued going through my polishes, I found more colors such as Henley that were similar. I am going to have to do a big pull out of my colors like this. I think Vee might be on the chopping block.
Liv vs Winona vs Mai vs Joni
These totally looked more similar in the bottle. Again, lots of these murky brownish reds and I love them. I need to pull them all out. I don't think I need both Liv and Winona. And I don't think I need both Mai and Joni. I think Liv and Mai will be the keepers, but not sure.
Maggie vs Velma vs Beverley
Velma and Maggie are closer than I though. I don't think I need all three. Again, I have to figure out which ones I want to keep. Beverely is much darker. I actually have to go back and compare it with Joni.
West vs Sylva
I think I like the green of West a bit more whereas Sylva is a bit more muted gray so I think Sylver==a will be purged.
Natty va Navy vs Brett
Natty and Brett are closer than I though. I think Brett is on the chopping block.

Thanks for doing the comparisons. I definitely see the difference. I love Giada it's so gorgeous. So true about the dusty murky purples. I have so many. I have to tell the hubby similar not the same 😂 I have started moving polishes out my my helmers that I know I will never wear. I also refuse to buy more helmers. Not to mention they aren't made as sturdy as they used to be.
ReplyDeleteWe also got more snow today but we are used to it. I was checking out earthcams in NY and New Jersey ....thats a lot of snow . Thanks for sharing and for the comparisons I really appreciate it. 💜
Tami
I currently have a pile of 500+ polishes to sell/give away. It's exhausting! So while I love these dusty purples, I can't keep them all! Ugh, disappointing that Helmers are not as sturdy. Yes, this wasn't the most snow we have every received....it was that the last storm only just started to melt and then we got piled on again haha. Stay warm!
