Zoya Urban Grunge Metallic Holos

So a couple of days ago I showed you the Zoya Urban Grunge 1 coat creams:) Well today I have the second part of Urban Grunge, the METALLIC HOLOS!!!! This collection reminds me so much of the Ornate collection from winter 2012. This collection is glamorous, rich and perfect for fall!!
*press sample*
Alicia is a silver scattered linear holo with just a hint of gold! I like the term Scattered Linear for this polish because it is a blend of both:) She is so beautiful and shiny and doesn't need direct light to truly sparkle!

Finley is deep royal purple scattered holo:) She has a deep purple leaning blue almost jelly base and a massive amount of holo shimmer micro shards! She reminded me so much of Aurora, however Finley leans much more blue and Aurora leans much more pink! She is my total favorite in this collection, and is deep in competition with Aurora for my favorite Zoya ever!!!

Merida is a brilliant evergreen scattered holo! A blackened green squishy jelly like base with a ton of green holo micro shards:) She just shines so much like a christmas tree all lit up on your tips!!!

Ash is a deep cherry red metallic with a dramatic red and gold shimmer!!! She is a classic beauty with just a hint of sass:) She is a perfect pop of red to go with all of the browns and blacks I wear in the fall!!!

Britta is a rich berry with deep red and purple shimmers. She is flashy and subtle all at the same time. She is the quintessential fall nail color that looks great on everyone and perfect for the coming cooler weather! 

Troy is the final polish in this collection. He is like liquid pewter with and edge:) With just a hint of black and gold he really stands out! He reminds me of Tris from the Flair collection but the finish os more of a foil with way more reflective shine!

All swatches are 2 coats with no top coat! The formula as always leaves nothing to be desired, it is perfect!!! Zoya totally rocked this whole collection! I can't wait for them to do more holos:) This collection is available now on Zoya.com for $10 per color or $60 for the collection:)

Zoya Petals

Happy Hump Day!!!! Time changes in just a few days so don't forget to spring forward, and you know what that means?!?!?!? WARMER weather!!! And with the warmer weather out come the Spring colors!!!! Zoya's new collection Petals is perfect for Spring!!! It is a six piece collection of shimmery, flowery, feminine colors:)  All Swatches are 3 coats with an accent nail of Leia gradient nail art!!
*Press Sample*
Aster is up first, a beautiful periwinkle with a strong silver shimmer!!!! This one is my favorite, it has a nice cool tone with just a hint of fuchsia flecks:) 

Zahara, a nice warm coral/orange with a rich opalescent effect:) This gem looks more like a sunbleached tangerine on my skin:( But I think it would be great with a nice tan!!!!

Tulip is a creamy pastel salmon with just a hint of sliver shimmer!!! I love the thought of this polish but not sure about how it looks on me?!?!? 

Laurel, is a soft shimmery petal pink:) This is such a classic color and has a cooler toned base to it that make it so easy to wear!!!!

Azalea, is a vibrant medium pink with a strong silver/fuchsia shimmer!!!!  This polish applies and looks so much like a foil, it just feels a little out of place in this collection... However this one had the most opaque coverage and I will definitely be wearing this on my toes!!! 

Leia is the last in this collection and the Stand Out in my opinion!!!! This gem is a sheer opalescent white with flashes of Fuchsia, green and gold depending on angle and light!!!! I am in love with with polish and it will be getting a lot of love from me!!!!

So overall I like this collection, I am not blown away except by Leia and Aster... I think the transitions of heavy to light shimmer is too much:( maybe all heavy, all light, or half and half... It's my ocd coming out in me!!! This collection is available now @ www.zoya.com!!!
