Zoya-Island Fun-Summer 2015
Press Sample
Hello Lovelies!
Today I have one half of Zoyas Summer 2015 collection called Island Fun, which consists of 6 gorgeously bright cremes. You all know me and my creme polishes so of course I was extremely excited to get to this set first! Check these beauties out! Swoon!
Zoya-Jace
Jace is a mossy green creme that dries to a slightly glossy finish. I used three thin coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Out of the entire Island Fun collection this was the only one I needed to use three coats of. The formula was a bit thinner then the rest but still very workable. This will be perfect for some military/camo manis!

Zoya-Serenity
Serenity is a bright iris purple cream that dries to a slightly glossy finish. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied well. You could probably get away with one coat but I always do two for good measure.
****
Zoya-Talia
Talia is deep turquoise blue creme, that dries to a slightly glossy finish. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. The formula of this one was the thickest of the group but again, still easy to work with. You can definitely get away with using just one coat. It's a strainer though so double up on the base coat!
****
Zoya-Nana
Nana is a deep fuchsia creme that dries to a slightly glossy finish. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied easy. Another that if applied carefully can be used in just one coat. Such a fun and bright pink for summer, and I usually veer away from this shade! haha

Zoya-Cecilia
Cecilia is your classic teal creme that dries to a slightly glossy finish. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied easily. This beauty is my favorite of the bunch. It is the perfect turquoise for summer! I have a few summer mani designs in mind for this baby!

Zoya-Demetria
Demetria is a tomato red creme that dries to a slightly glossy finish. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Again, another that if applied carefully can be used in just one coat. And no staining loves! A highly pigmented red that doesn't stain! who knew! haha
****
Aside from Jace, I love how highly pigmented these are. Can't wait to try some water marbling and stamping with them! Only issue I had with any of them was the staining with Talia. But I think if you use at least two coats of your base coat you should be safe, and be mindful of your cuticles when applying it so you don't stain them as well!
Each of these polishes are sold for $9 each on Zoya website and some stores! For more info please check out the links below! Thanks for swinging by! Don't forget to check out tomorrows post for the second half of the Zoya Summer 2015 collection, Paradise Sun!
