Hadley can be best described a smokey, midnight blue cream.

Blake is gorgeous, a deep inky blue with a strong copper shimmer that doesnt quite show on the nail, I'm not sure what topper I added over my swatch stick, maybe it was Nahla? Good formula, no running or pooling and I applied one coat, probably should have done two, Blake also stamps.

Hadley is stunning a deep blue with a strong green undertone, one of Zoya's chameleon colours, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, Hadley also stamps well. 

Zoya Kristen

Today on the blog I have the stunning Kristen, last weekend we meet up with some friends from the USA and I made a new friend called Kristen so I had to see if Zoya had a polish with her name on and they did!

A Zoya a Day
Name - Kristen

Year - 2011
Number - ZP591
Coats - 2
Finish - Creme

Collection - Feel
Colour - Blue
Topcoat - None

The Feel collection was a winter collection of six polishes and I also own Carey and Megan from this set, Megan is a light lavender with a grey undertone and Carey is a grey with a blue undertone, Dove is similar to Carey but without the blue undertone.

Zoya's description of Kristen can be best described as a gull grey nail polish with a mild bluish hue, now I would not say that Kristen has a gull grey undertone, I put this polish up against Lake and its more a sky blue, gull grey to me is a darker med toned grey like August.

The polish was the perfect formula, opaque in two coats and I think in time it could be a one coater.

I then decided the mani needed a little something extra so I grabbed my Clear Jelly Stamper and their plate CJS LC19 which is a mandala plate and added a little flourish to my nails, I used Zoya Blake which tamps like a dream.
