Zoya - Reece

Hi all! I wanted to show you something else after some badly chipped polish. So here's something I did before but wanted to do again and take better pictures of it.

Zoya Reece Reverie Collection

Reece in daylight, three coats

Reece is a deep rose pink with gold shimmer and a gold/green flash from Zoya's Reverie collection (2010). It's pretty and the changes between gold and green is nice to see. However, having an absolute dislike for pinks this isn't my kind of polish.

I've seen a lot of comments and messages that Reece is a dupe of China Glaze's Strawberry Fields. It isn't, see:

Comparison China Glaze Strawberry Fields and Zoya Reece Reverie Collection

Left: Strawberry Fields, Right: Reece

I think it's pretty clear. Reece is lighter and more rosy, has the gold/green flash and no glass fleck shimmer. Application wise I like Strawberry Fields a little better because Reece is thinner, it can flood into your cuticles and we all know that's a pain to remove with a brush.

Which one do you like most?

  5. I must say that I prefer Strawberry Fields, Reece looks too unsaturated for me somehow.

  12. I can't wear them any longer than 3 hours, they bore me out. Well, most of them do :o)

  14. I know what you mean, it looks like SF is waaaaay more pigmented but that's more because they're next to each other. I also prefer SF more.

    Reece looks AWESOME! I love the fact that the gold sheen is not so subtle but actually quite visible!
