Summer 2017 Comparisons - Zoya Sonja (Wanderlust)




From left to right: Eva (Hugs-n-Kisses), Live.Love.Carnaval (Brazil, Spring 2014), Kara (Classics), I Brake for Colour (Road Trip, Spring 2015), Sunset Sneaks (Peach Side Babe, Summer 2015), Some Hearts (Carrie Underwood, Spring 2014), Dixie (Sunsets, Summer 2016), Sonja, Tasmanian Devil Made Me Do It (Australia, Spring 2007), Lee (Set Sail, May 2015), America (La-Di-Da, Summer 2009), Haley (Classics)

Same as I said with Éclair My Love, this color isn’t even kind of unique, although it’s very pretty. The stuff on the farthest right is a bit too red to compare, and the stuff on the left is too light or orange or desaturated, but it’s all reasonably close.

Stay tuned for a more in-depth comparison for Sonja!



From left to right: Eva (Hugs-n-Kisses), I Brake for Colour (Road Trip, Spring 2015), Dixie (Sunsets, Summer 2016), Some Hearts (Carrie Underwood, Spring 2014), Sonja (Wanderlust, Summer 2017), Éclair My Love, My Chihuahua Bites! (Mexico, Spring 2006), Fire on the Horizon (Sunrise Sunset, Summer 2017), Lee (Set Sail, May 2015), Fran (Bask in the Heat, June 2017), America (La-Di-Da, Summer 2009), Haley (Classics), Coca Cola Red (Coca Cola, Summer 2014)

Fran, America, Haley, and Coca Cola Red are all too dark and too true red. Eva is too dusty, I Brake for Color is a bit too dark and orange toned, and Fire on the Horizon is not quite as saturated. Everything else is super close. There are some subtle differences, but really, if you have Dixie, Some Hearts, Sonja, My Chihuahua Bites, or from the last post Sunset Sneaks you don’t need Éclair My Love.

Summer 2017 Comparisons - Deborah Lippmann Fire on the Horizon (Sunrise Sunset) - Part 1


This was one giant row of red/corals, but I split it into two down the middle.




From left to right: Kara (Classics), Sunset Sneaks (Peach Side Babe, Summer 2015), I Brake for Colour (Road Trip, Spring 2015), Some Hearts (Carrie Underwood, Spring 2014), My Chihuahua Bites! (Mexico, Spring 2006), Dixie (Sunsets, Summer 2016), Fireball (Adrenaline Rush, Summer 2015), Alexis Ruby Empress (It’s a Girl Thing, Spring 2013), Tasmanian Devil Made Me Do It (Australia, Spring 2007), Fire on the Horizon

This was the orange-y end of the line. The closest stuff to Fire on the Horizon are Fireball, Alexis Ruby Empress, and Tasmanian Devil. Fireball and Alexis Ruby Empress have a lot of shimmer in them, their biggest departure from Fire on the Horizon. Tasmanian Devil though is pretty close. Tasmanian Devil is a lot more vibrant and saturated.
