Zoya Cashmere Collection Fall 2013 - Swatches and Review

*These products are Cruelty Free 



As promised, I'm back with the other half of Zoya's new collections for Fall 2013 - The Cashmere Collection! Hurry up FALL! (To see my swatches and review of the Satin Collection, click here!)




The Cashmere Collection consists of 6 new cremes for Fall.





So I did a little Autumn nail art - a free-hand plaid using all 6 shades and they are perfect. My manicure, since it's free-hand, is a bit "off-KILTer" though. Hehehe!




Continued after the jump...


Descriptions are from Zoya...


Livingston (ZP697) - Fall Red Cream - Full Coverage.

This one is a super bright classic cherry red creme. This is the only one of the 6 Cashmere shades that could probably use 3 coats. I only used two coats and no top coat for the photos. No issues to report at all.

This one is a brick red creme for sure. Two coats for full opacity and no top coat for the photos. Perfect formula and application. No issues to report.

Sailor (ZP696) - Dark Navy Cream - Full Coverage.
This one is in fact a dark navy creme but there is a touch of dusty teal in it that my camera couldn't seem to capture. Two coats for full opacity and no top coat for the photos. Perfect formula and application. No issues to report.

Louise (ZP694) - Chocolate Brown Cream - Full Coverage.
Chocolate brown is a perfect description of this creme. Rich and warm, dries, like the rest, to a super high shine. Two coats for full opacity and no top coat for the photos. Perfect formula and application. No issues to report.
