Zoya~True Part 2

Today I have they other half of Zoya's Spring 2012 collection, True.  Zoya polishes and lot of other great Zoya products can be found here.  Also, don't forget to enter my Holo 2012 giveaway!

If the first three polishes were a little tame for you, these three are little more spicy!

Skylar is a muted sky blue with silver micro glitter.

Tru is a grape purple with golden and magenta micro glitter.

Lotus is a dusty purple with pink micro glitter.

So, what do you think, is True as must have collection, must have a few, or a pass?  I love this collection and is a must have for me.  You never know when you need a good neutral and True has several.  Thanks for looking!

*These polishes were sent me for an honest review*

Zoya~True Part 1

True is Zoya's Spring 2012 collection of 6 beautiful and classic shades.  I always love the 'early' Spring collections.  They are usually light and pretty and a major contrast from all the glitz and glamour of the Holiday collections we have be wearing.  True is just that-a delicate mix of polishes that range from creamy beige to gorgeous purple.  This collection has a color (or 6) for everyone.  Today I have the first 3 of this collection.  These and a bazillion other gorgeous polishes can be found here for $8 each.  Make sure you follow Zoya on Twitter and Facebook too.  They have these fairies who are very good to their followers and you never know what mischief they are up to :)



Cho is a creamy pale yellow and I mean pale.  The coverage and finish on all of these was amazing.  Not streaky or chalky at all.

Farah is a creamy light beige or latte color.

And then there is Bevin.  What an amazing color!  Bevin is a light sage green creme.  Gorgeous!!!

True is a beautiful collection of polishes that would make your fingers very pretty and happy.

OPI~Muppets

Happy Friday the 13th!  I had all these huge plans for posting all of the great holiday/winter collections I have and December came and went too fast for me.  So, I know these are late, but they are definitely worth a second (or 50th) look and if you haven't picked any of these up yet, maybe I will inspire you :)

Also, don't forget to enter my Holo 2012 Giveaway!

OPI's holiday collection, The Muppets is an amazing collection of glitter, red, and neutral polishes.  The Muppets have a special place in my heart, not only because I grew up with them, but my youngest told me a couple of years ago, that he wanted to be Kermit when he grows up.

Rainbow Connection is a amazing display of multi-colored and multi-shaped glitter.

Divine Swine is a magenta glitter with silver hex scattered throughout.

Fresh Frog of Bel Air is a Kermit green glitter that also has a silver hex scattered throughout.

Gettin' Miss Piggy With It is a great red glitter and it too has the large silver hex.

Pepe's Purple Passion is a gorgeous plum base with glitter.

The next 4 are from the Muppettes, the mini 4 pack.

Designer...de Better is a light gold metallic with gold glitter.


Excuse Moi! is my favorite of this collection.  I actually went out a bought a few for full size bottles, just in case.  It is a pretty pink mauve glitter with larger pink, silver & light blue glitter.

Warm & Fozzie is a brown-copper metallic with gold & copper glitter.

Wocka! Wocka! is a pretty red with a pink iridescent wash.

Holo 2012!

This Giveaway is now CLOSED!  Thanks for entering!

Happy 2012!  I hope everyone had a great December and are having a great new year!  I have decided to start Nail'd & Polish'd, 2012, out with a giveaway.  A holo giveaway!  I have 3 hard to find, brand new China Glaze holographic beauties to give away to one very lucky winner.  L8R G8R, FYI, and Wireless Holographic Top Coat.  I have been holding on to these for a few months after scoring them at a local beauty supply and it is time to pass them along to one of my fellow polish lovers.

There isn't a whole lot I can say to describe these polishes, except they are amazing!  China Glaze knows how to do holographic and with any luck, they will do it again someday.
L8R G8R is a lime green holo.


FYI is a taupe holo.

Wireless Holographic Top Coat is just that, a holo top coat with endless holographic possibilities.

I am sorry I didn't announce this yesterday, but my husband had surgery (finally) on his broken ankle today.  Between traveling 100 miles for the surgery last night and parent-teacher conferences at my kids school, it just didn't happen.  Anyways, we have a winner!
