Review & Swatches: Zoya Stunning Collection

Good morning, beauties!

Today I have the Zoya Stunning Collection to share with you all. If you're a fan of colorful cremes and shimmers, you  do not want to miss this post! Here are my swatches!

Darcy is a warm, canary yellow with a subtle shimmer finish. Like most yellows, this applied streaky in the first coat, but evened out after a second. 

Thandie, is a a bright orange/coral creme with the same subtle shimmer as we saw in Darcy. Application was smooth and applied beautifully in two coats. 

Micky is a medium pink/coral with a subtle shimmer finish. Application was a bit tricky and required three thin coats for even application. Pretty, but very common IMO.

Yana is a beautiful hot pink shimmer. Now, this is a pink I can work with! This is so much more vibrant in person and only required two coats for opacity.

Rocky is gorgeous, sky blue creme. I was hoping this would have the same subtle shimmer, but it's still pretty awesome, nonetheless. I recommend working carefully during application, as this applies quite streaky  with the first coat, but evens out after the second. My favorite from the collection.

Josie is an olive/grassy green creme. Again, no shimmer which I would have loved, but applied beautifully in two thin coats.


$8.00 ea. or $48.00 for the collection

This collection is now available at

As always hope this helps & happy shopping!

Zoya: Lovely Collection for Spring 2013

Happy Monday, loves!

Today I have the Lovely Collection for Spring 2013 from Zoya. If you're a shimmer or creme lover, you may just love these! Here are some swatches! :) 

Piaf is a soft, yellow/light gold shimmer. This ones pretty interesting. It's a cross between a frost and pearl finish. I'm not too big on the color itself, but the finish is stunning! This was two generous coats. 

Gie Gie is a soft, pale pink with the same gorgeous finish as Piaf. No application issues and is opaque in two coats.

Julie is a soft lavender shimmer. This was easily my favorite from the three since I have nothing similar in my stash. Application was smooth and fully opaque in two coats.

Neely is a pale mint green. If you're anything like me, you know you can never have enough shades of mint in your collection! This was my favorite from the entire collection. Application was flawless and opaque in two easy coats. *GASPS*

Blu is a soft, light blue creme. This is so much more beautiful in person. It's a very clean, crisp color that will definitely be a priority color for me in the Spring! This was two coats.

Jacqueline is a pale, yellow nude creme. This gave me the most trouble with application. It was a bit streaky and required three coats to eliminate any brush strokes. It's a nice color, but was my least favorite from the cremes. 
Julie, Neely, and Blue
