happy nye!

a gentle reminder that while 2025 held moments of joy and laughter, it also carried pain and loss. it’s okay if your year contained both—that’s what real balance looks like. it’s okay if what you learned is that some things don’t mend, no matter how hard you try to fix them. it’s okay if your biggest realization was that life doesn’t always follow your plans, even when you thought you did everything right. and it’s okay if you’re still moving through hard days, searching for lighter ones ahead. if 2025 felt overwhelming, messy, and full all at once—then you lived it honestly. you did enough. ilysm. <33

NOTD: ZOYA December 2025 Color of the Month Nail Lacquer in Tinsel

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Tinsel. Silver Holographic.

Talk about ending the year with a sparkly bang!

Tinsel is a Silver Holographic that is showstopping and an absolute must have for New Years Eve. You can wear this shade two ways: as a topper over another polish; or, as you see here, on its own as a glittery masterpiece. Application requires minimal manipulation of the glitter as it is jam-packed; and while it can take a bit longer to remove, I highly recommend wearing it solo as this bad boy is jawdropping!

NOTD: essie Nail Polish in Berry Naughty

Two coats of essie Nail Polish in Berry Naughty. Deep Berry Creme.

That high-shine finish is sending me!

Berry Naughty is a deep berry creme that simply screams holiday season. The shade is rich and sumptuous, blending burgundy and oxblood together to create a blackened red that is both vamply and elegant. The formula here is slightly thin, and gravitates to cuticles; however, it's also v opaque, so it builds beautifully. So obsessed with this beauty for Christmas week!

NOTD: ZOYA Muse Fall 2025 Collection Nail Lacquer in Zarin

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Zarin. Rose Gold Glitter.

As a pink girly I can never resist a good rose gold, and this beauty does not disappoint!

Zarin is a Rose Gold Glitter that giggles and dances on your fingertips what with her shimmer and sparkle and shine that is simply impossible to resist. This one feels absolutely perfect for winter; yet maintains a neutrality through its subtle demeanor that would have her fitting seamlessly into all seasons. Two coats gives you full opacity; but if you want to go even deeper, a third coat would likely bring out the pinky tones a bit more. Love this beauty for December into January!

ZOYA Muse Fall 2025 Collection Nail Lacquer Swatches + Review {Part 1}

ZOYA's Muse Fall 2025 Collection is interesting because you have 6 shades focused on the vampy, Twilight-esque mood, and the other 6 shades brimming with neutrality, girly femininity, and muted winter-apropos vibes. Today I'm focusing on the gothic hues; next week I'll bring you the coquette colors in Part 2.

Octavia is a Shimmering Violet Magenta Pearl. Is it even December if you're not decking your nails with sparkling colors Octavia is a Shimmering Violet Magenta Pearl that brings the most sophisticated kiss of sparkle to your person. I originally wore this shade for Halloween because it seriously fit the vibe; but it works just as seamlessly for the chilly yet celebratory Christmas season. As with literally all ZOYA polishes, the formula here was top-notch, drying almost immediately and lasting for more than a week. Loves it! This is 2 coats.

West is a Pine Creme. Le sigh. This color brings all of the winter feels. West is a Pine Creme that feels so lush for cozy winter nights, decking the Christmas tree with family, or traipsing through town on holiday shopping sprees surrounded by twinkling white lights. The shade is deep and dusky, oftentimes taking on a deep teal hue in certain lights; with a formula that is top notch. I wore this beauty for 8 days and it showed 0 signs of chips or tipwear - exactly what you want in a mani during the busy holiday season. So highly recommended! This is 2 coats.

Emery is a Blackened Espresso Gold Velvet Metallic. Can we take a moment to discuss how absolutley luxe this shade is? Emery is a Blackened Espresso Gold Velvet Metallic that feels expensive and sophisticated while remaining completely accessible at the very same time. NGL this one surprised me - in the bottle it looks forest green with gold shimmer, but on the nail it is exactly what you see here. The lasting power of Emery is such a draw - this beauty literally stayed intact for 7 days, without so much as tipwear! Such a winner if you want a long-lasting mani with class. Obsessed! This is 2 coats.

Starling is a Periwinkle w/ Pink Iridescent Glitter. OMG this color! Starling is a Periwinkle w/ Pink Iridescent Glitter that would make for the most decadent New Year's Eve mani! Formula was great with this shade; however, I do recommend doing thinner coats, as the heavy glitter content can create gloppiness if you're being too heavy-handed. Though I dig it for NYE, Starling would truly look stunning anytime during the winter months for that ice queen vibe. This is 2 coats.

Navy is an Inky Midnight Navy Creme There's just something about a navy nail that brings all of the understated elegance. Navy is an Inky Midnight Navy Creme that is devastatingly elegant. It manages to be both vampy and posh whilst still retaining its winter weather cozy perfection. Formula was fantastic. While I did go with 2 coats to bring out the richness of the shade, this could have easily been a ocw. Highly recommend if you're seeking a rich shade for the chilly season. This is 2 coats.

Daphne is a Smoky Blue Velvet Creme. Can we just take a moment to appreciate that shine? Stunning! Daphne is a Smoky Blue Velvet Creme that invokes visions of Scooby Doo's Daphne. I'm not usually a fan of purple nail shades, but this one just feels like wintry splendor. This one had a phenomenal formula with results that stayed intact for over 7 days. If you love something unique, this gorgeous girl def fits the bill! This is 2 coats.

AVAILABILITY: ZOYA.

Happy Thanksgiving week babes!

Phoenix is a Deep Crimson w/ Fine Gold Microglitter that is so perfectly magical for November! This one is a shapeshifter that gleams golden and orange when it hits the light, making it such a chameleon of a nail color.

Velma is a Sienna Red Creme that is just lush for the autumn months. I lovelovelove this shade for November and the season of giving because it truly bottles one of the most beautiful shades for fall, and presents it in polish form. Velma has such incredible longevity - even with working a lot with your hands, this shade received nary a chip or even tipwear, remaining almost perfect for the 6 days that I wore it. If you're seeking a fall red, Velma is your girl.

Though more pink than white, this one is incredibly angelic, and gives the perfect accent to a your nails but better look. Hebe's formula is flawless, applying immaculately, and lasting for 5+ days. If sweet is your style, this is the one you need to snag!

I will never say no to a mauve nail color once the weather cools down.

Mademoiselle is a feminine mauve creme that screams very demure, very mindful and is a literal must for your polish rotation. Mademoiselle applies beautifully and smoothly. While it was a little flirty with my cuticles, it overall was unfussy and the perfect unobtrusive shade to match just about anything in your wardrobe. Loves it!

Mindi is a Crimson Red w/ Blue Shimmer that feels ever so slightly like a crelly, with the opacity of a standard creme.

NOTD: ZOYA Nail Lacquer in Chelsea

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Chelsea. Powdered Blush Creme.

Such a cutie shade for the month of May!

Chelsea is a Powdered Blush Creme that is the perfect little spring thing for tips and toes. This one looked far more nudey/beige in the bottle, so I was pleasantly surprised to see how blush-toned it actually appeared on the nail. This one runs on the thin side, so you definitely want to wipe excess product off the brush before application; but overall such a perfect pick if you love the Bubble Bath family.

NOTD: ZOYA Naturel 6: Sparkling Collection Nail Lacquer in Scotti

Three coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Scotti. Biscotti Putty Pink w/ Pink and Rose Gold Microglitter.

NGL this may be my all-time least favorite ZOYA shade. Womp womp.

Scotti is a Biscotti Putty Pink w/ Pink and Rose Gold Microglitter that felt v boring on the nail. I expected more of a white/creamy shade, but after a day or two, the color darkened, and read very much nudey/putty that is too mannequin hands to be attractive. Formula-wise I also wasn't a fan...this one flaked and chipped in less than 2 days, and showed evident tipwear almost immediately. As much as I love ZOYA, this one is a pass.

Two coats of essie Nail Polish in Blanc. White Creme.

"She's an icon. She's a legend. She is the moment.".

Blanc is a bright white creme that 100% encapsulates that iconic Wendy Williams quote. This was my first time using Blanc, so I had no idea how powerful she truly is; but...wipe the brush on the lip to avoid dripping, and she will be your white creme OCW. Staying power is unreal; and that bright white hue never dulls. Grab this one if white polish is your thing girlies!

As promised, here's part 2 of the stunning ZOYA Tutti Frutti collection.

Candy is a White Pink Candy Creme. Babes, I have found the literal best pink polish to ever hit the nail polish scene! Candy is a white pink candy creme that is simply stunning. Like yes, it brings all the Barbie vibes; but it's also, IMO, the only pink you will ever need in your polish collection. Trust. This one brings out your tan, and has a brightness to it that kind of bridges the gap between pastel and neon. Formula was phenomenal. This one dries matte (in seconds!), so you def need to reach for top coat to give it shine. 11/10 color. This is 2 coats.

Vita is a Deep Pink w/ Shimmering Holo Finish. For my ladies who love a side of sparkle with their pink, look no further than this pretty. Vita is a deep pink w/ shimmering holo finish that is v reminiscent of bubbles laughing in champagne. This one is deep enough that it feels like it would seamlessly fit into your fall wardrobe; but the holo finish makes it feel just flirty enough for the summer months. If you're looking for a playful pink for vacay, you can't go wrong with this bad boy! This is 2 coats.

Loni is a Bright Salmon Coral Creme. Y'all, I am in love with this color! Loni is a bright salmon coral creme that feels straight from the 80s with its neon-esque glow and party vibes. I love this one so much because it's playful, flirty, and fun - and just feels splendiferous for summer. This one is perfect for a matching mani/pedi - obsessed! This is 2 coats.

Yohanna is a Vibrant Knockout Pink Creme. Come on Barbie, let's go party... Had to. #sorrynotsorry. Yohanna is a vibrant knockout pink creme that will legit make you feel like a Barbie girl. Trust. Yohanna is a blue-toned pink that is blindingly bright and will leave you staring at your nails all. day. long. Formula here was amazing to work with {so on brand for ZOYA}; and if pink is your thing, you cannot pass this pretty up! This is 2 coats.

Tiggy is a Watermelon Red w/ Gold Shimmer. I may be semi over pinks for the time being, but this shade was definitely ripe enough to catch my eye. Tiggy is a Watermelon Red w/ Gold Shimmer that will speak to the pink and red girlies! This glamorous hue has gold shimmer throughout that lends multi-dimensional depth; while the formula itself is absolutely incredible. Not only does it self-level, but it lasts through so. much. Cleaning, moving, packing, cooking, organizing...you name it and she is a survivor. Definitely one of my new favorite shades for summer! This is 2 coats.

Bohdi is a Neon Portland Orange Creme.I wish I could have captured the bright of this bad boy because the neon is intense; but I digress...Bohdi is a searing neon Portland Orange creme that has one of the most intense brightness levels I have ever seen in a polish! Babes, this color is gorgeous and will catch the eye of everyone you encounter. It does dry matte {neon obvi}, so you need top coat to make it shine; but you will not be disappointed with this beauty on your tips and toes! This is 2 coats.

ZOYA Tutti Frutti Collection Nail Lacquer Swatches + Review {Part 1}

Summer isn't summer without a drop from ZOYA, so you know I was ecstatic when their Tutti Frutti collection was delivered. This 12-piece is jam-packed with brilliance; and because the colors are so good, I decided to break my review into two parts so you can truly savor the goodness. Part 1 launching now...

Brinkley is a Bright Raspberry Magenta Creme. Babes, I love this color so much, you have no idea. Is she pink? Is she purple? I don't even care - she is pure perfection! Brinkley is a bright raspberry magenta creme that gives all of the girly vibes! This beauty has a touch of blue undertone that almost makes it look like she has hidden shimmer; but, surprise, surprise, she doesn't! If you love a good hybrid shade this is the gorgeous you need in your life! This is 2 coats.

Capri is a Seafoam Green Creme. I knew I was going to love this color, and she did. not. disappoint. Capri is a Seafoam Green Creme that is like a mix of ZOYA's Boo and a rich turquoise. This one photographs lighter than she is - she gives deeper teal vibes irl; but her opacity and depth is just unreal. This beauty survived cooking, cleaning, and organizing with not so much as a chip, so she will def survive your summer vacay. Love her for tips and toes! This is 2 coats.

Paisley is a Purple Pastel Neon Creme. ZOYA has been hitting it out of the ballpark with these color of the month shades. Like o.m.g. Paisley is a purple pastel neon creme that will score you all of the compliments. Trust. This beauty maintains that bright meets saccharine shading that is just brilliant for the spring and summer months. It does dry down to a matte finish; however, top coat brings out its true shine and vibrancy, and literally makes it one of the most beautiful nail colors ever. Bonus points for staying perfectly intact for 6 days. Obsessed! This is 2 coats.

Mindi is a Crimson Red w/ Blue Shimmer. This is such a fun shade for my red lovers! Mindi is a Crimson Red w/ Blue Shimmer that feels ever so slightly like a crelly, with the opacity of a standard creme. This one leans watermelon-meets-strawberry, so while it has that rich crimson feel, its vibe is just lovely for summertime. Formula here is fantastic. It's fast-dry, long-lasting, and just superb for my red girlies! This is 2 coats.

Boo is a Carolina Blue Creme. Le sigh. I can never resist a good blue mani, and this one is bliss. Boo is a Carolina Blue Creme that is what I imagine the color of a calm breeze would be. Weird, I know; but I love. This shade is pure brilliance, capturing the serenity and peace of a lazy summer day. The formula is top tier. This beauty could easily be a OCW, but I opted for two to make sure she was perfectly level. If you love a good blue, you must add Boo to your life! This is 2 coats.

Sunday is a Rose Metallic w/ Blue Shimmer. Now this, ladies, is a truly electrifying shade. Sunday is a Rose Metallic w/ Blue Shimmer that packs big punch with her metallic tone. This beauty is bright and brilliant bringing both bold and shimmery color that works for summertime and beyond. Formula was a breeze to work with; and dry-time for this stunner was practically instant. Love this one for a sizzling mani! This is 2 coats.

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Cleo. Pinky Coral w/ Fine Pink and Gold Microglitter.

I def wanted to love this shade more, but it just didn't happen. Le sigh.

Cleo is a Pinky Coral w/ Fine Pink and Gold Microglitter that, in theory, sounds stunning; but on the nail was underwhelming. I found the color to read more baby pink with v little visible microglitter; and the formula itself was thick and not super user friendly. NGL it is a v feminine and flirty shade if that's what you're seeking, but it wasn't what I was looking for. Womp womp.

Pure Love is a bright white creme that has been my go-to over the past few weeks. Aside from being stunning, Pure Love is just so. easy to use. Yes, application requires multiple coats, but the formula itself is long-lasting, and practically chip and tipweaar proof. I love this one because it's just so chic for summer or year-round. Highly, highly recommend.
