Zoya Stunning Collection

Press Sample 
*These Products Are Cruelty Free 



ZOYA STUNNING COLLECTION

I posted the Zoya Irresistible Collection, Pixie Dust Collection and Pixie Dust Summer Collection right away when I got them but I thought I'd save one for a bit later, after most of the other photos were already up. It seems like we all get the collections at the same time and so they all show up at once. So I saved this one for later...like dessert.

Zoya Stunning Collection


Zoya's Stunning Collection consists of 6 cremes, some of them even have subtle shimmer! Yana, Thandie, Rocky, Micky, Josie and Darcy.

Five of the 6 had a great formula and easy application. I used two coats on all six of them and no top coats for the photos. Darcy, the yellow one, was thicker and not self-leveling and I had a bit of trouble with application, which is evident in the photos.

So let's get started! After the jump...


First up, Yana


Yana is described as a geranium pink and that's as good or better than I can do in describing it. This one has a subtle shimmer that you can see if you look closely. No issues at all.

Thandie

Thandie is like a bright melon-orange. This creme also has a subtle shimmer. No issues at all.

Rocky

Rocky is a straight sky blue creme. This one is a smidge thicker but I didn't have any issues with it. I think if you use 3 thin coats rather than 2 medium coats, it would be easier.

Micky

Micky is a medium rose pink creme with subtle shimmer. No issues to report.

And finally, Darcy

Darcy is a bright sunny yellow that leans very warm. This one has that subtle shimmer as well. I had issues with this one as it was a tad thicker and not self-leveling. I used two coats, but I think it might be a bit easier to get even if you used 3 thin coats and let them dry in between without any additional over-manipulation of the polish. As for me, since it's not the best color for my skin tone, I probably wouldn't go through the trouble again and will just use it for nail art. But if it were "my" color, it's not so bad I wouldn't wear it again.
