Hey there everyone, I am so excited about todays blog post. For many reasons too, one being its full of gorgeous polishes and the second being its officially Holiday release time! Wooohoooo!!!😀🎄That all being said today is all about Zoya's new Party Girls collection which is their latest release for the Holiday season, and I am so excited. Lets get into it!!
Blake
2 coat(s)
A deep refined pearl in a sapphire blue jelly base.
Blake has an amazing formula. It is a super dark navy shade that is actually a jelly like base. So when you apply your first coat it is sheer and has a much brighter blue look, however then on your second coat you reach this dark navy blue that almost looks black. Its really a great shade, and it does have a shimmer running through out it which only appears in direct light. I think you will be able to see this in the macro. 😉
From a distance you definitely feel/look like you are wearing a black shade so this is a good polish if you want something like black but not an actual black. Plus even though it is in the Party Girls collection which is the Holiday collection I could totally see it being worn all year by those who rock dark shades all year.
Here it is a bit closer up, look at that shimmer! Its really a pretty color and nice to have in a Holiday collection!
Landon
2 coat(s)
A mysterious, deep aubergine creme.
Landon is the perfect creamy purple for any and all purple lovers. It has an amazing formula and as you can see just looks really nice. Also these pics are pre top coat for the most part and it does dry super shiny. Obviously I would still suggest top coat but its nice to have it start off so shiny!
I really liked this purple on too. It didn't pull any certain way in regards of blue or red which can happen with purples like this. Overall I was very happy with this.
Isadora
2 coat(s)
A rich, refined pearl in a magenta plum.
Isadora was a stand out to me. Of course I thought it was pretty when I saw the bottle but I fell in love with it on. Its such a rich berry toned purple and then is has such a stunning shimmer that picks up blue in it all through out. Its just stunning. Plus it looks so nice on, and luxurious.
The formula was perfect. Seriously perfect in just 2 coats, and no brush strokes to deal with. Really it was just so impressive.
Look at those colors that pick up when you are close. Its just really pretty!
Kelsey
1-2 coat(s)
A muted cerise pink.
Again another great formula! Kelsey will cover completely in 1-2 coats depending on how thick you do your coats. Also its such a nice shade. Pinks tend to be super bright, or super Barbie like, or even baby pink. However this one lands somewhere in the middle and its perfect.
Again it also dries down super shiny and lovely.
Danielle
1-2 coat(s)
A deep dark periwinkle creme.
This one here is so unique and I'm sure computer screens and phone screens are going to have a hay day with it. Its so different and unlike any polish I have had. Its like a deep periwinkle but so deep you also kind of want to call it blurple.
I have not seen another creme polish like this one either. The formula was fabulous as well. It was 1-2 coats. Meaning when I did my coats on the thicker side like I tend to do most often it was good in one coat, and when I did it thinner is was 2 coats.
Delaney
2 coat(s)
A royal purple multichromatic metallic flip.
First off, lets start by saying this polish has a great formula. A quick 2 coats and no need to worry about brush strokes. Now on to the color it self.... This polish is so neat. Here you can see its a royal purple shade with a magenta flash which is lovely. However then you see it in real life and its so much more.
Here it is in its shifting stages. How cool is that. You get that bold look that you saw earlier and then you get that green blue stage, and then even a frosty purple.
Here is a look at the bottle so you can see what you kind of see in the bottle pre applying it to your nails. Its such a neat shade. Ha, this line is just full of neat shades!
Ming
2 coat(s)
A sexy midtown scarlet red creme.
If you are a classic red kinda gal you are going to want to check out Ming. Its deeper red than say Sooki by Zoya but its perfect for a wintery look, or festive party look. Its what I would call a cozy red.
Also I did not notice any nail staining. Obviously if you have dry fingers and don't remove your polish carefully it may stain you skin, but I didn't notice any nail staining which is so important for a red polish.
Fallon
2 coat(s)
A refined pearl, midtown, violet magenta.
Calling all pink lovers, you need this! This is such a luxe looking magenta with a purple flash in it and its just lovely. The formula was nice and had complete coverage in just 2 coats. I did have to be a bit careful with brush strokes but for the most part they disappeared when it dried.
This again is another shade that I think will take you well beyond the holiday season. I mean its a pink lovers must have!
Sheri
2 coat(s)
A midtown garnet red creme.
This one like Ming is perfect for any Red polish lover! Its a much deeper red. Almost what you could call a red wine shade and its so pretty. Another great formula and made for a nice and easy application.
Also it did not stain my nails, the only staining that may happen will be on your skin if you have dry skin that it may touch when you remove the polish. Just use your favorite base coat and you should be good to go!
Tawny
2 coat(s)
A deep coppery rose sparkling metallic.
Tawny is SOO pretty, which I am sure you can already see. This is one that I actually think is also a great fall color. Its coppery, rusty, and then its got pinky purply sparkles that appear up close. Its just great.
Application was a breeze with 2 easy coats, and really I just love this one. Zoya always goes this type of polish well. There is no denying it.
See what I mean? Just beautiful!
Solstice
2 coat(s)
A sparkling persimmon orange metallic.
Solstice is a really nice polish its one of my favorite type or formulas actually. Its a creme with a shimmer through out which I just love. When I saw this color online though I will be honest, I thought it was going to be a bit more corally however it ended up being a much more orange red shade.
Even though it wasn't what I was expecting it was really nice. I loved the nice and easy to use formula. Plus the shimmer through out it was lovely!
See there is that shimmer for you, its really a nice polish.
Nadia
2 coat(s) on its own
1 coat as a topper
1 coat as a topper
A buildable, sparkling gingery gold metallic "disco" topper.
Here we have Nadia as a polish alone. Nadia builds up completely in 2 coats like the majority of the collection even tho it is listed as a topper. As you can see it is gorgeous! Now lets see it as a topper.
Here it is as a topper on Sheri. Its a lovely topper on basically anything. In the video I actually put it on top os Isadora and it looks so different than it does here and its just stunning!
Happy Painting!
