I guess if I had a nail polish company I'd name my polishes after girls names, but probably with a twist, like the name meaning rather than the name.
Zoya names them after women's names. I like that.
Here's my nemisis: Kalista
I have to say that it was a nightmare trying to get this dry.
I finally did, and added a glitter top coat - a gorgeous Ulta Gold called Gold Digger - and it melted.
I tried it again tonight because I had bad tip wear on day one with minimal usage and it was three tough attempts until I gave up.
There is an aura of failure around this polish for me, I don't know if its the brand or this color. I love it, though, it's a burgundy tending toward the brown and a lot of shimmer to boot!
Thanks for reading my little nail polish journal!
This is pretty! I've heard you can't use quick-dry topcoats with a certain ingredient in them over Zoyas. The last time I wore one of mine. I used a regular clear over the color then my quick dry.
ReplyDeleteThank you for that tip!!! I will try that. I really wrestled with this polish, and I am concerned about others, I've got about 30 or so Zoyas and some are really unique!
ReplyDeleteI didn't know about the quick dry topcoat problem with Zoyas. I've never had that problem. It's such a pretty shade.
ReplyDeleteI will have to toy with base coats more, too, I think.
