A Zoya A Day - Mae and Toni

Hi Friends

Toni can be best described as a dark, warm raisin-wine cream with strong purple tones. 

Mae is pretty but she is sheer, I didnt think this was going to be a two coater, good formula, no running or pooling.  

Toni is like a dark cherry red, great formula, almost a one coater, no running or pooling and I did two coats. Toni also stamps.  Toni does dry darker than in the bottle.

I have been taking part in the When Colours Collide nail challenges, this past week was the end of a challenge, below is my entry, the colours were brown (cream only) and gold. For the challenge I did a base of Zoya Goldie and Zoya Foster, I then stamped in Foster and Elaine along with Models Own Chrome Gold. The next challenge is dark blue and silver, so I think I might use Zoya Ryan and likely Color Club.

  1. You're back! Hi! :D These two go nicely together. I quite like Mae. I almost bought her, but in the end decided on Harper as a "medium pink" for my collection. I do love the Paradise Sun/Island Fun collection though! I also like your brown and gold stamping :)

    1. Thanks :) yeah I got totally distracted by Fancy Gloss lol maybe I should start showing those manicures as well. I just love a thermal and Jackie does the best colours.

    3. I really like them because my body temp is not stable, I'm either freezing cold or boiling hot my nails can show fully cold on some and fully hot on others.
