I don't know why exactly, but I've been on a red kick lately. Maybe it's because I've stayed away from red polishes for probably the past two years, but I'm really embracing my reds at the moment and I wanted to show you the latest additions to my collection, which I purchased recently from Zoya (retail: $8 each):
Zoya Stacy is a wine-colored jelly-creme that went on rather sheer for the first two coats (see above). A third coat made it more opaque, but it's a bit finicky for my liking, especially since there are so many super-opaque wine-colored shades out there.
Next we have Zoya Delilah:
I blame Scrangie and her beautiful swatch of Delilah for this purchase. Delilah is a gorgeous red jelly with fine red glitter. Before top coat (see pic above) it's a little bit bumpy-looking, but one layer of top coat smoothes it out beautifully (see below).
America is one of my favorite reds ever, and probably my second favorite polish from Zoya, after Petra.
ReplyDeleteI got Tamsen during the Valentine's promo, and I really love it! I'm not much of a red person, but this one is a perfect shade for me. :) Nice and tomatoey rather than blue, pink or brown leaning.
ReplyDeleteI'm a big fan of both reds and Zoya. My favorites are Isla, which is kind of blackened around the edges, and Posh, a matte red. Next red Zoya will be Sooki.
ReplyDeleteI love Zoya! My favorite red is Isla, which is kind of blackened around the edges.
ReplyDeleteI know how this looks, but I truly love Zoya Diana. It's such a great red. I believe it has a jelly consistency too. I'm so glad this polish shares my name, because otherwise I probably would have overlooked it. A red is a red, right?! Wrong! I really like Zoya Sarah too. It's a little more on the pink side of red though, but it's full of sparkly goodness. It just happens to be my sister's name! Ha!
ReplyDeleteI have Lisa, it's a gorgeous medium red glass fleck. I would love to get Isla, so vampy, or Sarah which is sort of in between Lisa and Isla.
ReplyDeleteI love Vanessa! I find that cooler, berry-toned reds go best with my skintone, and Vanessa is a rich raspberry creme. Love!
ReplyDeleteI love all of Zoya's reds, especially the blackened reds like Isla, Colbie and Blair!
ReplyDeleteThe only Zoya red I have is Sarah (my namesake color) and while it's really pretty, I rarely wear it. I really want Sooki though.
ReplyDeleteI usually get greens and purples from Zoya. They do them amazingly well. <3
Hehe, Scrangie 'helped' me figure out which red polish I wanted to get from Zoya first. Delilah is so beautiful. Cherry red with a tiny hint of pink.
ReplyDeleteI love it. Wearing it on my toes right now. xD
It's actually my first real red polish out of my collection.
I got America during their valentine's day promotion and I LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE it. I've had it on my nails since Saturday (it was the perfect color for the Mad Men party I hosted)

ReplyDeleteDelilah is really a nice, cute and beautiful shade! good pick!
ReplyDeleteI have Zoya Blair that I don't wear at this time of year, a more vampy type of red, I thought it's great for winter time!
I like Zoya's Ruby a lot, but my favorite is their LE Rekha.
ReplyDeleteNidhi. Such a unique red-- tons of gold shimmer in it. I plan to wear it a lot in the summer.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite Zoya reds are Sooki and Maura!
ReplyDeleteLOVE Delilah! So pretty! I'm such a sucker for sparkles! Stacy looks nice, too. My favorite wine cream polish is Plum Pudding by CoverGirl (Boundless Color). Goes on smooth and wears well!
ReplyDeleteLove the Delilah. It looks like caviar! :-)
ReplyDeleteI looove Zoya! these colors look GOR-GE-OUS
