Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Starling. 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.

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Octavia. 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!

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Phoenix. Deep Crimson w/ Fine Gold Microglitter.
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. I instantly picture Harry Potter and Hogwarts whenever I think of a Phoenix; and since Thanksgiving Week is when I marathon the HP movies, it feels like this shade was made for this time of year. Phoenix earns all of the heart eyes!

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Velma. Sienna Red Creme.
Every single time I say the name of this nail color I think of Velma from Scooby Doo. But I digress...
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.

Hebe is a Rosy Beige Nude Creme that is stunning for the girls who love a demure shade to pair with their cognac riding boots and chunky knits. 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.

Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Emery. 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!

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.

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

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.

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!
Two coats of ZOYA Nail Polish in Maxine. Poppy Red Creme.
This color y'all...I'm screaming.
Maxine is a Poppy Red Creme that feels so fresh and flirty and fun for spring. The pinky undertone lends a brightness to the red that is so versatile; but it's the formula that legit takes the cake. I wore this shade for a full week without so much as a single chip, or sign of tipwear, making it such an amazing choice for tips and toes for your next vacay. Highly recommend!
