Assorted Sparkly Zoyas

LEFT HAND (click to enlarge)

This mani is some of the sparkliest Zoya polishes I own.  Of course these photos do not do them justice.  After many photos I did get the colour quite accurate.  Purple is always a tough colour to photograph as it tends to come out more blue.  The pinky pink is a bit brighter and deeper in person with visible pink sparkle.  Hot Pink!  The gorgeous blue, which I call peacock blue, has a light green sparkle.  I did this mani on June 6th.  Didn't take photos until the next day.  The 4 colours on the left hand fingers (not the thumb) are from the Zoya Sparkle Collection.  Ivanka, on the right hand, is also from that collection.  It was a favourite collection for sure.

I could not find my Zoya basecoat so I used OPI Start to Finish.  I used a single layer of the Zoya Armor topcoat.

About a week after doing the mani I did some stamping on the left hand. There was a bit of tip wear but I was happy with how well the Zoya held up. The polish I used for stamping was a very old Sally Hansen Chrome polish called Diamond. The plate used is Konad M57.  The pattern on my index finger is noticeably a smidge to short to cover the entire length of the nail. I did not apply top coat after stamping as I had not planned on keeping it on very long. It was my intention to do a fresh mani later that day.

I ended up keeping it on for another week!  You can see the grow out gap between the cuticle and the polish and some tip wear.  You can also see the stamped on polish worn off in spots. Even more remarkable is that I washed dishes several times in the 3 days before this picture was taken.  Normally I wear gloves to protect the polish but I was planning on taking it off anyway.  I fully expected it to peel at it didn't.  I'm kinda shocked that this is how it looks after 2 weeks with just one top coat and some dish washing to test it!  Yay Zoya!

I have been very impatiently waiting about 2 months now for the Zoya Sunshine Collection to be available here in Canada.  So frustrating!!!!!
