Tangy by Zoya can be best described as a bright apple green shimmer with peachy-orange duochrome.

Josie is so pretty, this has a hint of blue undertone, as you can see when compared to Jace in the stamping test pic along side Ness. Great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Josie also stamps.

Tangy is stunning, I adore this one so much, I hope you can see that duo-chrome in my pics, this does show brush strokes, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats.

A Zoya A Day - Kylie and Yana

Hey Friends

Today on the blog we meet Kylie and Yana. We've made it to the red section.

Available on USA website - Yes

Brush used - Original

Name - Kylie
Year - 2005
Number - ZP0299
Coats - 2

Kylie by Zoya can be best described as a bright red-orange coral in a milky creme finish.

Available on USA website - Yes

Topcoat - No

Yana by Zoya can be best described as a full-coverage, Geranium pink cream.

Zoya describes Kylie as a red orange coral then puts it into the pink, orange and coral colour categories, kinda weird. This has a good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats. This is also the second use of the name Kylie, the first Kylie was a sheer pink in their original classic collection.

Yana described as a pink doesnt look pink to my eyes, and I dont think you can see pink compared to Kylie either, good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats. Sometimes Zoya's colour descriptions and categories dont quite make sense.

A Zoya A Day - Ali and Micky

Micky by Zoya can be best described as a full-coverage, amazing coral cream.

Interesting that they call Micky a cream, my bottle has a very very fine silver shimmer flash, that doesnt show up on the nail. Good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats.

Ali is my fav neon pink from Zoya, I also own Cana but she is sheer and takes three coats, Ali has a good formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, I use a z-wide brush to help with any streaks, this dries matte, I put topcoat on my first two nails so you could see the difference. I've included a shot where you can see how much I have used Ali. I think she is my most worn Zoya.

I also show you the difference between Wendy from yesterday and Micky, as you can see Micky is a deeper colour.

A Zoya A Day - Darcy

Hey Friends

Today on the blog we meet Darcy

Available on USA website - Yes

Name - Darcy
Year - 2013
Number - ZP0663
Coats - 2
Finish - Cream
Collection - Stunning
Colour - Yellow
Topcoat - No

Darcy by Zoya can be best described as a full-coverage, sunny yellow cream. I'd call this more an egg yolk yellow.

This is darker than Creamy, pretty good formula, streaky on the first coat but it self levels very well and its opaque in two coats. Do please ignore the mess that is my ring finger, I shoved my hand in my pocket and the polish on that finger wasnt dry.

I love both these collections and I really wish they did this kind again where you got a cream with a corresponding shimmer.

Bonus Ellie pic as she is too cute not to show!.
