Zoya - Anja

This little beauty really took my breath away when I finished the application and sat back to admire it. It's a rich burgundy with a definite purple hue. In the bottle it looked like it had a lot more red/purple in it, but mostly it looked like a dark burgundy while I was wearing it. Here are some photos taken in the lovely desert sun!







It took only two coats for this to be opaque - and I paint really thin coats! Really great coverage and super easy application. Smooth and creamy! I am quickly falling in love with Zoya polishes! Now I just need to try their mattes!

Zoya - Dove

I have very limited funds and usually get very cheap polish, but recently I received a lovely gift of 4 new Zoya polishes! I got Casey, Dove, Petra, and Anja!

The first I decided to try was Dove.

It's a beautiful creamy grey. Took 3 coats to get it as opaque as I wanted, but I also apply really thin coats out of habit to avoid bubbling. I'm sure the more daring lacquerista could get away with two coats. I've been looking for a nice grey for awhile now, and it definitely seems like I have found it! I can't think of a single complaint I could have about this polish. The only thing that I think would make it better is probably a glittery or flaky top coat layered on.







More Zoya swatches and nail art (I hope!) to come. Thanks for reading!
