The Latest Scoop

Zoya Kiki Nail Polish

So yesterday I got my Zoya order from the Facebook 3 Free promotion, yay!! I guess after I posted that blog post I started reading what all of you were picking out, and changed the ones that I got and got NONE of the original 3 that I picked out, haha.

I saw a lot of you were getting certain colors because it was your name, your pets name, your moms name, etc. I looked, and they don’t have a color named Leesha or Alicia, so I looked for my pet’s name, and they had one named Kiki! On top of that, its GORGEOUS!

This is Kiki, if you’ve never seen her :) We’re kinda BFFs.

This is a bright, hot blue-pink with a gorgeous neon pink and purple shimmer. It’s such a Leesha color, I’m really glad a jumped on the bandwagon and looked up names of people (and pets!) I knew like you guys!!

I got my Zoya polishes the other day, too! I’m wearing Bela right now (which is gorgeous!), but I also got my namesake, Amanda, and Indigo. Love these polishes!

Gah! I’m so jealous, it is amazing. The closest I got was I picked one polish out that was kind of the name of one of my bff’s (spelled differently) and it’s pretty meh. I didn’t look close enough at the opacity ratings and got things they were waaaay too sheer. That’s my bad, though.

I am still waiting for my colors. It is FINALLY an open order. All 3 of the colors that I picked out were on back order. Anyway… I love that color. It is such a pretty pink. I may have to purchase that for this summer. Love it!!! How many coats did you use? I had asked this before but never got the final answer…. what base coat, and top coat do you think works the best with your polishes? My polishes NEVER last. After I shower they peel. I have tried everything. I buff my nails and everything. Its so darn annoying.

  this is two coats.
  
  if i use a basecoat its usually a strengthener, but lately i’ve really liked Zoya’s anchor, as it helps adhere nail color. For top coat I use seche vite, always.

    Thanks for the tip about Zoya’s anchor. I think that I will try that!!

I am still waiting for mine…they take forever to ship! I wonder if it is always like that, or if they are just overwhelmed from the promo. I ordered on the 6th…
- Leesha
  
  its not always like that, its just because of the promo. they got over 300,000 orders.. theres only so many hours in a day yanno?
Emily

That’s such a pretty color! I love the bright colors too! I’m kind of shocked and sad that they don’t have a shade in my name XD Emily’s sooo common. Ah well, maybe in the future. I love a lot of their colors :D

I feel that if I stare at Kiki’s picture long enough, she may be able to command me to do horrible things… :)
