Zoya Gei Gei & Piaf

Sun

Good morning and happy Friday!  I'm so glad the weekend is almost here.  I'm finally feeling better but sadly Mr. MLiP and one of the boys is sick now.  Anyway, today I have the other two polishes from the Zoya Zang Toi collection.  Zoya Gei Gei is a pale pink full of shimmer.  Zoya describes them as being icy and I'd say that's about right.  I've been wanting a full coverage pale pink shimmer for a while but for some reason the polish companies always make the pale pinks so sheer.  Gei Gei took three coats but it was opaque.  My accent nail is Zoya Piaf, basically the yellow version of the pink and purple in this collection.  Piaf also took three coats.  It wasn't quite as opaque as Gei Gei but really close.  Then I used Zoya Trixie to stamp over the whole thing.  Jury's still out on wether or not that was a good idea.

 This mani was amazingly hard to photograph.  Seeing as how my photography skills are less than stellar this is what you get.  I hope you enjoyed this.  See you soon.

Zoya Julie


Shade
Happy Saturday!  Today I have Zoya Julie from the LE Zang Toi trio.  I have been searching high and low for the perfect shimmery purple.  I had pretty much given up when Zoya released this trio for fashion week.  I normally shy away from showing you things that aren't easy to find but even though this is currently sold out, it may be out there for swaps.  Plus there is a good chance Zoya may bring it back for the spring collection.  This is two coats of Julie and it was amazingly perfect.  It is exactly the purple I was looking for.  Zoya describes it as an icy cool lilac and I think that's dead on.  Trixie came with the trio so I added a half moon accent to my ring finger.

This mani prompted a five minute discussion with Mr. MLiP where I tried to explain accent nails.  He just doesn't get it.  Every time I do an accent nail he ask's "Why do you want one nail that's different?". Boys I tell ya!  I hope you are all having a great Saturday.  I unfortunately, have to go to work later today.
