Zoya Nail Polish

I love a good deal, so when I saw a coupon floating around the web for three free bottles of nail polish, I jumped at the chance. I had never used Zoya before, but I had heard about it on various blogs and YouTube beauty videos.

After searching through all of the color choices, I finally decided on Rina, Tao, and Meadow.I ended up paying ten dollars for shipping, but seeing as each bottle is eight bucks, that is still a good deal and well worth the price. 

I've spoken before about my love of gray and Tao is the prettiest gray that I've found so far. Its got a slight blue tinge that I was a little worried about before seeing it on, but it is gorgeous. The shimmer is not overwhelming and the polish is SO shiny.

 
 
I ended up painting over Tao with Rina, which is a clear polish with two different types of green glitter and a few blue-ish pieces of glitter mixed in. The confetti glitter is what attracted me to this polish. I love glitter in general, but sometimes its nice to see it changed up from the normal small glitter particles. This color is to die for. It's a very Christmas green, but I can see myself wearing it all year round.
 
Meadow is a lovely orangeish-pink with gold shimmer. I started to paint my nails with this color, but after smearing a few nails because I wasn't paying attention, the gray of Tao and the green of  Rina wrangled me in and I had to go with those. I am planning to paint my toenails in Meadow tonight. I love pink polish, which seems odd because I'm honestly not a big fan of the color pink. Its has a tendency to wash me out and make me look sickly. I am a little more adventurous with my nails since it's so easy to change if I really don't like it.
 
I will definitely be purchasing more colors from Zoya in the (near) future. With my polish I received a little booklet with all of the colors (which is so much easier to get a feel for the colors than browsing on the website) and I've already got about 10 marked that I need.
