Misty by Zoya can be best described as an easy to wear taupe that is an updated version of gray with just a touch of green to make it daring.

Two of my all time fav dusty greens, Ireland is stunning, I love the dusty greyness of this, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Ireland also stamps.

Misty is such an ugly pretty colour, I love that brown/khaki undertone, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Misty also stamps, I adore this whole collection, just fab dusty muted palette cleanser colours.

On another note, check out the pics at the very bottom, see those numbers at the top of the label, those happen to be production dates! Zoya used to put production dates on their bottles from the start right up until approx 2003 (we think) so if you have old pre 2003 Zoya check those labels and find your polishes birthday! I will certainly be wearing both Giselle and Camile on their birthdays! Big shout out to Jo and her friend who discovered this amazing information! 

Giselle born 29 May 1998, Camile born 10 June 1998, that makes these two ladies 24 years old this year.

This is late because I had a slow start to the day after feeling very ill yesterday due to a bad migraine, it finally responded to meds around 4pm. Ellie was a very good nurse maid as you can see from the pics.

Wow, look at how similar these two collections are, theyre seven years apart.
