Shimmer Me Timbers

Hey ladies! Quick post for you today - Zoya Mimi. A pretty purple shimmer. Zoya is always a pleasure to use, the formula always goes on like a dream. I have 3 coats here under Seche Vite. Beautimus!

I should work on my picture skills :/

I got this off of Copious (for free!), it's like Pinterest + Etsy + Free credits all of the time. They keep hooking members up with $10 credits, so I have been getting free polish lately. It's awesome. If you use this link, you get $10 in a welcome bonus and I will get $5. I do not think they do shipping anywhere other than the U.S. right now though :(

See you next time my lovely, polished ladies!

Something About Zoya...

Hello! So, awhile back I got a mini trio from Zoya and for some reason, I hadn't gotten to Zoya Zuza. I think I know why, it's because the camera does not really do this guy justice because the micro glitters are so subtle, it doesn't really pick it up.


Short and sweet, 3 coats of Zuza, 1 of Seche Vite. I LOVE Zoya. Their formulas are always amazing to work with. The polish glides on, no problems.

As close as I could get to capturing the shimmer. 

Don't make fun of my goopy ring finger. I had troubles with Seche, I'm almost out. 

The color isn't as impressive as some other Zoya's I have seen, but it's still gorgeous! Until next time my lovely, polished ladies!

Zoya Pinterest Trio

Hey dudes. Busy week, man. Nails are a mess. I got some time tonight to do my nails, luckily my FREE Zoya Pinterest Trio came in the mail today.

If you were one of the first 2,000 people to redeem the trio...you received these 3 polishes from the Zoya Beach Collection: Myrta, Zuza, and Kimber. So shimmery and bright, perfect for summer (obviously, it has "beach" in the name, blog lady).

I just swatched Myrta tonight, since it matches my dress for tomorrow! I have 2 coats on over some CND Stickey and topped with Seche Vite. It's tangerine-y with a lot of shimmer, it reminds me of Zoya Calypso except a liiiiitttllee darker. Zoya polishes are always so awesome to apply, never runny and the brush gives you so much control.

Very pretty and shimmery. Excuse the cutes, they're kinda of sad.

I thought it would look nice with this pattern on my dress!

I will probably swatch the other two I got later this week, but for reference, I got this mini trio FOR FREE!

Hopefully my homework/house hunting allows me to get some nail painting in this week! See you soon my lovely, polished ladies!

Off Day and A Classic Red With A Twist

I am having an off polish day. I tried 3 or 4 manicures before I decided to just go classic. And even my classic mani didn't happen without error.

I was inspired by Glazed And Confused to break out Zoya's Sooki again, which is a delicious creamy red. I had mentioned to her that I would love to see a really pretty shimmer over it, something like OPI's I Juggle...Men.

So I started my trip to manicure town. Got my CND Stickey on. 2 coats of Sooki in, and I decide that my head itches. Rookie mistake, blog lady.

GAH!

Minor set back. I finish off with 2 coats of I Juggle...Men and start to put on my Seche Vite when I realize it needs some Seche Restore...but I continue anyways. What a stringy mess. Anyways, the manicure came out ok...it was a task trying to get all of those pretty micro glitters in I Juggle...Men to show up on camera and you might need to enlarge these, but I think I got some in there.

You can see some sparkles in here, but mostly this picture is for the Zoya Sooki, such a gorgeous red. 

This is for showing off the super pretty micro glitters.

All in all, I'm pretty happy with this manicure. It's pretty classic and after last times "Dexter Manicure", I needed a clean slate. See you next time, my lovely polished ladies!
