Green Comparison: Foils

Rustling up a few ignored greens. Reminding me of summer leaves shimmering in the sunlight.

Zoya Logan:


Logan is a glass fleck that pushes over into the foil category, so I call it a foil. It does not have the total "wall of metal" feeling of a foil, but it's pretty darn close.

Three coats and a beautiful depth that makes it a perennial favorite. I would say that if you are starting out your collection and want a great green, this is a good one. Though my photo pulls a little cooler than it is in person, there is gold glass fleck in this and it's not super shy, either.

Found on the Zoya site, you can often find they offer sales and this is a worthy polish among many on their site.


Color Club Ho-Ho-Holly


With a a slight gold undertone, this one is a true foil. Less "dark space" between the flashes of light making it a light reflecting monster. My photo doesn't do this beetle carapace green much justice, but it's a gorgeous thing, be assured.

This was from their 2012 Winter Affair collection, a full on winner, in my opinion. 


Here is a quick comparison:

You can see that the glass fleck pops better for Logan in this photo and how much cooler Ho-Ho-Holly is as well.

Thank you so much for reading my little nail polish journal!
