ZOYA Toasty Transitional 2023 Collection Nail Lacquer Swatches + Review

NGL, when ZOYA's Toasty Transitional 2023 Collection Nail Lacquer arrived I did a little happy dance, because these 6 shades so perfectly represent the transition from winter to spring, and bring on all of the cozy vibes. With that said, let's jump right in!

Hattie is a Rosy Pink Creme. NGL here, this may be my new, all-time favorite rose. Yes, it is that good!Hattie is a positively perfect rosy pink creme that gives all of the cozy feels for fall/winter, while bringing a spring punch all at the same time! This is probably the first polish that has ever given me a satin vibe {we're talking ever}, which really adds to the girliness. Hattie has one of the best formulas I have used in awhile. Very fast dry; and the wearability is just phenomenal. Highly, highly recommend this cutie! This is 2 coats.

Rae is a Dusty Rose Creme. Let's be honest here: we don't talk about rose nail colors enough. Period. Rae is a decadent dusty rose creme that is giving me allll of the toasty vibes. This is one of those shades that is begging to be paired with oversized sweaters and otk boots {and I am more than happy to oblige}. The formula here was so easy breezy, I literally cannot; and the dry time was instant. This is def one of my new fave ZOYA shades. Buy. It. Now. This is 2 coats.

Abigail is an Elephant Gray Creme. I never think grey for spring; but I am seriously feeling this shade for transitioning from winter. Abigail is an elephant grey creme that is slightly darker in real life. The formula here is flawless - applying smoothly, and drying in minutes. I will say that I am naturally {very} pale, and at times I thought this shade gave me a touch of corpse hands; so it may be more apropos for a tanner complexion. This is 2 coats.

Crystal is a Gray Creme. Another day, another gray. Crystal is a gray creme that I would call bray due to its ever so slight brown-meets-lavender undertones, but I don't think that bray is a thing, so here we are. Y'all, this one has an incredible lifespan. Cooking, cleaning, crafting...it survives them all with no tipwear or chips. Crystal is darker than the elephant gray of Abigail {also from this collection}, so if you like grays you may want to grab both. Just saying. This is 2 coats.

Elowen is a Cabernet Creme. Who says deep, dark, decadent nail colors are only for fall? Elowen {tell me I'm not the only one who thinks of a Tolkien fairy when I say that name} is a charming cabernet creme that is spicy and rich and oh-so romantic. This one had such and incredible formula that when I say it practically painted itself I am not kidding. Wear-time was wonderful with this beauty - showing 0 chips or tipwear in a seven day period. Highly recommend for the chillier months or whenever you're craving a little vamp! This is 2 coats.

Ora is a Dark Blackberry Creme. Vampy for spring should totes be a thing because I am loving it! Ora is a dark blackberry creme that would be lush for fall into winter, but I'm actually digging the hint of dark for spring to summer manis. The formula for this one is super easy to work with - it doesn't gravitate to cuticles, and builds to a rich opacity easily. It does require 2 coats to avoid VNL, but they are fast dry and flawless. Highly recommend for year-round manis or pedis! This is 2 coats.
