Zoya Blogger Collection

My first Full sized Zoya polish happens to be the Blogger Collection :) how appropriate...right?
I'm a Birchbox subscriber & as soon as I heard about this collection I knew it would be mine.
In the preview photo the colors look pretty similar. After swatching them they are nothing alike at all. Belle is a shimmery sheer pink that leans towards peach. Coraline is a sheer orange red coral & Kate a sheer punchy orange. All three dry to a super shiny finish & will look great layered. Belle as a shimmery top and the other two in jelly sandwiches..great summer colors!

Can't wait to experiment...

Franken Berri Swatched

Here are some Colorwheel swatches of a sparkling berry colored franken I've been working on called "Franken Berri"
Named after the fruity Halloween cereal :)

Ive swatched her at 1 & 2 coats to show opacity....then layered on top of one of My favorite sheer berries OPI'S Do You Think I'm Tex-y.

Frankly Lisa swatched

Sooo a couple of weeks ago I mixed a a pretty wild looking franken & I asked for name ideas....Thank You for all the ideas, they were great.
I loved Lisa Frank the most and decided as a nod to Miss Frank I'd call this polish Frankly Lisa.

The base for FL is a sheer purple with irridecent hex glitter that shifts colors...thus making it a pain in the A** to capture :) I did the best I could

I used a color wheel. I swatched her at 1 & 2 coats alone then over 3 complimenting shades:

•LA Girl freak
•LA Girl groovy
•Sally Hansen sturdy sapphire

Overall I like this franken because it is My first.....but I really want more of the bottle color...so I will keep working on it & get back to You

Cosmic GoOdLuck charm

More ColorWheel swatches! Yay!

Hope everyone's week is coming to a nice end.

Today I am swatching 2 nail polishes that are brand new to Me...These are My first Jordana colors. I found them at a random Kmart on my way back from a road trip. I've never seen the polish at My local drugstore, although they carry some of the makeup products.

Ok so I've heard good things about the glitters so I reached for a color I knew I didn't own. A blue hex with green and silver glitter suspended in a clear base. Her name is Cosmic. This is NOT a full coverage glitter & in My opinion looks best layered. I layered with the second color I grabbed, a slime green shimmer called GoodLuck charm. Very vibrant but on the sheer side. Full opacity with three coats.

So what do You Think? Do You have any Jordana in Your stash? Do You like ColorWheel Swatches?
