Yesterday i picked up my part of a joint order of Zoya polishes. Seven of them. I have five or six before and it is not my favourite brand, I haven't been too impressed by the formula. Some are really good but some are somewhat tricky to apply. I have also had problems chosing colours. Many of the collections are a bit too traditional to my taste.
Nevertheless I fell for the temptation when a good friend was hinting about maybe ordering a couple of Zoyas and we started to look through all of zoya.com. To make a long story short: I ended up with seven Zoyas, three of them from the Ornate collection.
I have swatched them all on sticks and most of them have a quite good formula. A bit jelly-ish but still applies quite easily.
I chose Zoya Aurora as the first one to swatch on nails. (I really very seldom "swatch" on nails, I paint my nails, both hands, for daily wear and not only to photograph and post in blogs.)
It has a beautiful, quite coarse, scattered holo, with a nice depth. I like this purple nuance very much!
This is two coats. It dries quite slowly, but with a quick-dry top coat it is absolutely manageable.
I would say that the colour actually is just a tad more to the red side than what the photos show.
