I'm in Love!

Well it's official, I'm in love with Zoya nail polish. I've wanted to get some Zoyas for awhile now but they aren't sold in stores and even thought the reviews had been really good I usually like to try out a polish before buying it. There was a huge sale online however and so I picked up 6 polishes. It only took the first polish to know I was hooked! Over the next several days I'm going to feature a different polish each day with some nail art.

Today's polish is the first one I grabbed, Zoya Delilah. It is an absolutely beautiful red with a gorgeous glitter.

This is two coats with one coat of Seche Vite top coat. I couldn't stop looking at it! It reminds me of Dorothy's ruby slippers from The Wizard of Oz.

I wish I had taken a pic of this in the sunshine so you could see it in all its sparkly glory!

With every Zoya polish I'm going to feature, I also want to add some nail art. I thought some black roses would look very classy with this polish.

I used one of my black nail pens to draw in the rosettes.

I did not want to take this polish off! It's just so pretty; definitely something I will be using a lot in the future.

Stay tuned tomorrow for the next Zoya polish!

Happy painting friends!

Goldfinger

The title makes this sound like it's James Bond nail art but it's just literally gold fingers! Lol. My sister in law bought me Ciate ladylike luxe a beautiful gold colour and some gold caviar beads. She's so sweet! I played around with some ideas and thought it would be cool to do some super glam nails.

I did a base of the gold on all fingers and then drew on the rosettes using black and gold nail pens. The ring finger sports a gold glitter by Color Club (I wish it had a name attached as it's absolutely beautiful!). On the thumb I poured on the gold caviar beads.

I can't say that the caviar beads were the easiest to work with. There were a few bare areas and the edges weren't even. I think I need to do some investigation to find an effective way of applying them.

I also find that it makes my thumbnail look HUGE! In comparison tot he other nails it's monstrous with so many beads on it. I really like the idea of the beads but I think I need to figure out how to make them work for me a bit better.

These would be good nails to wear for New Year's or to Vegas, lol.

I hope you enjoyed them.

Happy painting friends!
