Zoya Nail Polish Review!
I took advantage of their AWESOME offer, 2012 coupon code for 2 free nail polishes- just pay shipping. So, for 8 bucks I got 2 polishes.
They came in this cute little box (pictured above) with some nail swatch plates and a little info book that has ALL of their colors! I loved getting the swatch plate because online swatches are just so hard to picture.The two I got are Laurie (left) and Jem (right).
Laurie is a milky-semi opaque pink. Two coats doesn’t quite conceal the whole nail, but three will for sure! It’s the perfect spring color. What I love is that it’s NOT streaky, like Figi from Essie is.
Jem is a deepened raspberry with a gold frost. It’s really a gorgeous color, but I didn’t think it was going to be this dark. I was a bit disappointed since I thought I’d be able to wear it for spring, but I’ll just have to find the right time time to wear it! It’s SO opaque though, one coat was ALL I needed for full coverage.
Overall, these are great nail polishes.
Pros:
- Great packaging
- Not streaky
- Very creamy
- Very smooth
- Doesn’t bubble
- Smell is VERY MILD, which I thought was amazing!
Cons:
- Laurie is a bit sheer.

FTC: all the brushes were a gift for hanukkah minus a few I picked up myself. Sigma did send me the face scrubber guy, but I gave you my true thoughts on it. I’m not an asshole.

What eye make up would suit the gown in the photo? Its for my school ball and well I want to look like a princess! I have my dress (the one in the photo) and my prince charming (:P) but i’m stuck on what to do for makeup! Should I incorporate purple into my eyes? or leave it? please help! thanks in advance :) xx
I’m so so sooo sorry I haven’t gotten around to answering this and I have no idea how long ago you left this so if you’ve already gone to the event I’m sorry again :( but if you haven’t I’ve just looked up some makeup tutorials that I think would be good for this dress and I’ve come across this one (clicky) it’s a very soft and subtle look that I think would be perfect with this dress since the dress has a lot of sparkles on it and you don’t want the makeup to overpower that. Again, I’m terribly sorry if I’m too late!
Also, if you want a more dramatic look this one is lovely! (click) But you obviously don’t have to go so bright on the lips, you can do something more natural.
