Zoya Newbie #2!

Happy Monday, ladies!

I hope everyone has had a good start to their week thus far! Mine was kicked off with the discovery of an engorged tick on my arm. /vomit. I know as a future geologist I'm supposed to enjoy being outdoors and what not, but I. do. not. like. bugs. Now my insect anxiety is raging and I've been itchy all day. :c

Sooo, onto better things. :P I'm continuing my Zoya newbie theme today by showing another one that I purchased during their latest promo. I'm sure most of you have seen this one swatched already, but I love it so much I couldn't NOT post it. ;)

This is two coats of Zoya Maisie over Zoya Raven, all taken outside in direct sunlight:
Wittle nubz. Had to cut them down for my Paleontology trip. :P


Uh-mazing
This polish makes me want to sing really happy songs. :tone 
Zoya describes Maisie as a "sheer turquoise blue base with reflective Mylar flakes that shift from green to blue" and it's a part of the Fleck Effect collection. Weeee, I love it!

Do you love this one as much as I do?
Thanks for reading!

  3. Oooh sorry about your morning surprise! I like being outdoors - minus all the little insects. Squirrels and rabbits and whatnot are ok - but nothing with more than four legs please. And your mani looks fabulous!! (And an embarrassing note - my contacts must be old because I thought your title said "Zombie" not Zoya haha)

    1. HAHAHAHA, funny that you mention that because I keep thinking it says Zombie, too! Our eyes must only be seeing the first half of Zoya and the second half of Newbie and mixing them together? >.< But thank you! I'm glad you like it. And yes, rabbits + squirrels are fine, anything smaller than an inch is not okay. :P

  5. can you do a segment on how to grow healthy beautiful nails? And i was curious to know what base coat and top coat you use with your nail polish, or which ones are your favorite?

    1. I can sure try! :) Right now I'm using Essie's Ridge Filling Base Coat and Seche Vite top coat, but I don't like SV at all. I prefer Orly's quick dry top coats. :)
