Zoya Fall 2015 | Focus Collection
Press Sample
Hey guys! So who is ready for Fall!? I know I am! Fall is my favorite season and I am so excited the hot summer days and nights are almost a thing of the past and cool, cozy nights are around the corner. Sorry summer lovin' ladies but here in New England our summers are wacky but our Falls, *breathes in fresh crisp air* swoon! They are beautiful! Anyway, speaking of fall, today I have the first half of the Zoya 2015 collection called "Focus". Check these lovely cremes out!

Zoya-Charli
Zoya Charli is described as a dusty taupe cream that has a hint of green, but is still a perfect neutral. A used three thin coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was thin so I did experience a bit of flooding around the cuticles. I really like the shade and its probably one of my favorites(color wise) from this half of the collection.

Zoya-Lidia
Zoya Lidia is described as a rich eggplant cream that has a blackened purple base and just a hint of red to make it more wearable for all skin tones. I used three thin coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was slightly thin but not as thin as Charli so no flooding. This is the perfect deep purple to add to your fall polish collection!

Zoya-Janel
Zoya Janel is described as a deep red cream that has a warm undertone. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was great and applied easily. A lovely shade of red for fall as well as Christmas!

Zoya Hannah
Zoya Hannah is described as a clear, classic red cream with a balanced (neutral) undertone. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was thicker then the rest but applied easily. The brightness of this one kind of threw me off a bit compared to the rest of the fall shade colors but it's still a pretty red.

Zoya-Desiree
Zoya Desiree is described as a classic sable brown cream that has just enough gray to keep it cool in tone. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was a bit streaky on the first coat but leveled out nicely on the second. I have actually been searching for a shade this color for some upcoming fall manis I have planned so I'm pretty excited lol

Zoya-Sia
Zoya Sia described as a true, royal blue cream. I used two coats to achieve full opacity and sealed it with a glossy top coat. Formula was slightly thin but built up nicely. This is a beautiful blue and I don't have one like it in my collection. This is a highly pigmented shade though so be sure to apply a base coat to prevent staining.

Overall, Having two reds in the mix was a little weird but at least you have two different ones to chose from and although most of the colors aren't really unique, I think they are beautiful and will definitely be using them in some fall art manis. Be sure to use one or two coats of base coat under the darker, highly pigmented ones as well! Can't wait to try the second half of the collection today so stay tuned for that post tomorrow!
You can purchase the "Focus" collection in full size for $54, minis for $42 or individual full sizes for $9 each.

Lovely swatches. I agree having two different reds was a little off putting, but at least some of the others made up for it.
ReplyDeletethese are lovely...but I don't see how they relate to fall.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite Zoya creme collections in a long time. Exactly my colors!
ReplyDeleteGreat swatches! While I love being able to go out on flip flops in the summer, and not having to wear a jacket, I think I actually like Fall better.. more pretty polish, better temperatures at night, yeah I like the coming time of year!
ReplyDeleteThese are such gorgeous colors! I'm definitely going to have to pick some of these up.
ReplyDeleteI may actually have to pick a few of these up! I don't typically buy mainstream but Hannah, Sia and Lidia look wonderful!
ReplyDeleteI think I'd like to see a comparison of the two reds side by side! In general I actually really like this half of the collection... I think my eyes are just getting tired of glitters and crellys and metallics these days! A nice simple creme is soothing! lol
ReplyDeleteThese are gorgeous cremes but I like the flair collection a little better this year.
