Zoya Summer Collections 2013





    Today I have for you the Summer Collections from Zoya for 2013. I thought about breaking this into 2 parts But I know that a lot of people have done reviews of these collections already. So I'm going to try and limit this to a few words about each polish. Be ready this is going to be picture heavy.

    Let's start with the Irresistible collection. Full of shimmer and rich colors this collection is sure to please. Like with all Zoya's the formulas were flawless, and the application was smooth.

Zoya Irresistible Collection
Back row left to right: Tinsley, Bobbi and, Amy
Front row left to right: Hasel, Rikki and, Kerry




Zoya Kerry

 Kerry is a golden yellow with yellow shimmer. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat


Zoya Rikki

Rikki is a dark green shimmer with flashes of gold, Shown here with 2 coats no top coat




     Hazel is a blue based polish with silver shimmer and a few scattered gold glitters thrown in. This was almost a 1 coat polish. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat




     Amy almost glows like fire on the nails with it's red/orange base and golden shimmer. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.


     Bobbi is a gorgeous raspberry pink with silver and blue shimmer. Like Hazel, this was almost a 1 coater. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.


     Tinsley is a rose gold-toned beauty with lots of golden shimmer. The application was smooth but very sheer. Shown here with 3 coats no top coat.

   Next up is the stunning collection. I'm not sure if it was the fact that I swatched these outside in a slight breeze or if it was the formula, but I found a few of these to be slightly streaky during application. All of the polishes evened out nicely after 2 coats though.

Back row left to right: Micky, Yane and, Thandie
Front row left to right: Rocky, Josie and, Darcy




      Darcy is a bright sunshine yellow with subtle shimmer. The application was a tad streaky with this one. (possibly due to the breeze) Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.



     Rocky is a gorgeous ocean blue in a creme finish. Again this was slightly streaky with the application, but it evens itself out nicely. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.


     Josie is a bright spring green that dries to a flawless creme finish. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.


     Thandie had a smooth application with almost 1 coat opacity. A fun orange with a touch of coral and a hint of shimmer. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.


     Yana is a deep pink with subtle shimmer. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.


     Micky is a bright Barbie pink with subtle shimmer. The application was smooth with this one. Shown here with 2 coats no top coat.

    All in all, I have to say I'm very happy with these collections. It's hard to pick a favorite but I have to say I'm in love with the flash in Amy and Bobbie and the colors of Thandie and Micky. Do you have a favorite from any of these? Which ones will be going on your wish list?
