Zoya Jade #196 From Zoya's website: "Bright red glitter in a translucent crimson red base. The traditional sexy red polish with a sparkling twist"
This color is very translucent in one coat, but two coats gives me great color coverage. Because of the translucent/jelly consistency, it goes on a brighter shade. The swatches below were done on a tip, so it actually goes on more like the bottle color. This could easily be used over any other red to give little red glitter specks over the top! :-)
This is what happens when you take a girl very passionate about nails and set her loose with over 400 bottles of nail polish. :,)This is my obsession...Polished Passion

Zoya Sarah #535
Zoya Sarah #535 From Zoya's site: "Pearls of dark fuchsia, red-violet and ruby tones in a bright sparkle finish. A very rich and different shade of cool red sparkle that will stand out in a crowd."
This color was hard to capture. All the little specks of glitter and shimmer were throwing my macro feature on my camera off. I tried to capture it the best I could. I'm painting the color swatches on nail tips for now, so I can swatch without drying out my nails.

Zoya Kylie #219
Zoya Kylie #219 From website: "Medium dusty pink with a touch of mauve and frosty silver shimmer. Soft and delicate but not faint, a baby pink for all skin tones." Gorgeous color! Goes well with my skin tone. The silver shimmer really makes this color pop on my skin tone!

Five more Zoya swatches!
Beyonnce #285 A great metallic duo chrome. A mix of metallic deep hot pink, and orange. Firey, gorgeoous, and hard to photograph.
Yes, The second pic is blurry, but shows the duo-chrome nicely!
Melodie #291 A very different color. Cool toned nude cream base with tons of silver shimmer. Very PITA to capture on film, but gorgeous in person!
Sirena #292 A bright flirty pink shimmer. Slightly metallic bright satin pink with flecks pink and silver shimmer. Super pretty!
Calypso #295 A pretty, peach color with tons of frost and shimmer. Tiny flecks of silver shimmer, much like a peach colored Sirena. Very nice!
Sunny #298 A warm creamy terracotta base with loads of golden fleck iridescence. Almost due-chrome. Very fun for summer or fall!
Whew! Hope you enjoy!

Awe, some more swatches!
I have been majorly MIA lately. I would like to one day own every Zoya color...that's intense. I'm about 198 bottles short. I just recently bought the Fire & Ice collection, and now have 176 bottles. I would like to swatch new collections as I get them in, but need to swatch all the others first. I know it's nice to look at four fingers glazed in a single color, but please forgive me. I am going to swatch one finger for each color. I know this doesn't look as appealing as four fingers, but I have a LOT of colors to swatch for you! I did ten just tonight! :) Click on the pics for a closer inspection! :)
Zoya Haley #251 A cream red. Rich warm tomato shade. Bright.
Zoya Tobey #253 A cool lavender cream with a touch of violet.
Zoya Jinx #254 A wonderful shimmery golden brown full of shimmer and micro fleck. Sorry, not the sharpest pics. Great Fall color!
Zoya Faith #255 A slightly metallic magenta shade of pinkish red. Micro fleck/frost...reminds me of velvet.
Zoya Sophie #258 A warm cream. A brick colored brownish red, if that makes sense.
Zoya Stella #265 A bright blue-red. Appears mostly like a cream, but has a delicate pinkish frost. A go-to red.
Zoya Heather #266 A cool-toned white lilac with a hint of lavendar purple. Appears mostly as a cream, but has a very faint shimmer you can see if you look closely. Very clean and classy!
Zoya Meadow #268 A deep dusty mauve absolutely loaded with tons of golden shimmer. The pictures don't do it justice. This color was most chosen by older clientelle, but is still shimmery enough to be worn at all ages.
Zoya Flora #269 A very pretty, slightly warm, pinkish cream. Simple and clean. Opaque.
Zoya Poppy #270 This color is so pretty! A great frosted peach. Very pretty! Lots of shimmer going on!
