A couple of months back I did a swap with Marie from
Mon Coin A Moua, and included in this swap was the gorgeous Catrice Floralista collection - four gorgeous spring cremes! When I opened the package, I happened to be wearing Zoya Kieko, and I noticed what appeared to be a startling similarity...
Both
Zoya Kieko and
Catrice Pink Spring are reddish-based medium purples, with a bit of a berry look to them. In the bottle they seemed
very similar to me, although the Zoya seems a tad bit more bold.

On the nail, however, there is a much bigger difference. The Catrice is much lighter than the Zoya, and a bit more muted.

In the sun, they are two completely different colors - looking at this picture I almost feel silly for thinking that they were so similar, but I swear, they looked closer in the bottle. :) The Catrice is definitely a bit more of a lighter pink with the Zoya being a richer purple. Both applied really well in two coats with an easy application and gorgeous finish. I am glad to have them both in my collection!
Thanks for the comparison!!
