Zoya Burke #521

Zoya Burke #521  From site: "Soft, dusty light red mulberry with very subtle brick and mauve tones.An autumn berry for a soft classic look."

This was a hard color to capture, ironically enough.  I edit pics to try to resemble the actual color in real life.  I only have florescent lighting in my apartment, so adjusting the picture color is necessary.   The color on Zoya's website is a little too pink.  It's more warm than than in person.


Zoya Stacy #520

Zoya Stacy #520  From site: "Dark raspberry creme with purple and wine undertones. A lighter take on a vintage vampy shade."

This color is yummy!  I love it!  So dark, shiny, and purple!  Very cool toned.  


Zoya Kelly #519

Zoya Kelly #519  From site:  "A rich gray shade with soft purple and blue undertones. An easy to wear alternative to black and a perfect NEW neutral."

This is a great gray shade.  Medium dark, and very shiny!

Zoya Jade #196

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!  :-)


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!
