ella + mila desert suede

Press Sample
My last ella + mila polish here is desert suede. When I first saw this photo, I was very surprised by it. Most of the photos I see online show it as a pink dusty nude but it's actually a warm brown with pink undertones. I thought it was going to be more brown on my skin but it actually wore really nicely.
