Zoya Edyta

It's fall, which means time to break out the darker colors. Here I have Zoya Edyta, a blackish green with gold, green, and (I think?) red shimmer. In most lights, it translates to a murky silvery sheen. The bottle shows off mostly the gold shimmer, though. Since I wore this last week too, I know that the gold shimmer actually sinks to the bottom of the nail. Oh well; it's still pretty!

I'm having a really difficult time describing this polish, to be honest. My brain wants to call it green, and the rest of the internet calls it green in general, but it's really not that green. Edyta actually comes out as a dark gray shimmer, more than anything. From observation, the base of the polish seems to be a dark teal color, so I think the prevalence of gold and other warm-toned shimmers balance out the blue. Anyway, the formula itself was beautiful. It's one of those special Zoya shimmers, kind of like Fei Fei or Daul, where it's semi-sheer but packed with a complex mixture of glitters and looks almost gritty. I got complete opacity with two coats. The texture was smooth and super easy to work with, not too runny or too thick.
