Aura Camel & a comparison

I knew that yesterday's color was not going to be on my nails for long - it's just not 'my' color. So today I opted for something more appealing - a purple-y taupe shade from Aura's VIP line called Camel. Truth is, I have a very similar shade among my collection already and the only reason I bought this one is because the store lights made it appear much lighter than it is. But no regrets, see for yourself. 



2 coats, no top coat. Very good formula, easy application if you're not bothered by the tiny brush. Besides the obvious purple tone, this polish also has a very tiny/microscopic greenish micro-shimmer, and I wish this was more prominent, as it is a great idea to spice this color a little. Sadly, it mostly invisible on the nails, you'll need a magnifying glass. 

Onto the good news for all Serbian girls who missed out on a recent limited edition polish - this Aura shade is very close dupe to Deborah Pret a porter Unplugged. Here are some photos:



Deborah is just a touch deeper in tone, and slightly more purple, but on the nail the difference is almost not there. I hope this will help some of you who are in search of your perfect taupe polish. 

Thanks for reading :)
