Zoya Naturel 5, Swatches and Review

 Press Sample

Hold your judgment. Yes, this collection came out in either January or February of 2022. The problem was that Zoya was releasing so many collections and I kept wanting to do the current collection and this one just got pushed back and back. Well, the good thing is these are literally neutral colors and do not really belong to a season. In addition, this is the literal season they came out last year, so it’s relevant!

KBShimmer Northern Exposure with Winter Stamping

 Press Sample

Hello all! I really neglected my stamping plates for a while, so I've been using them a lot lately. When I swatched the KBShimmer Northern Exposure collection, I knew I wanted to do some themed nail art.When I think of Northern Lights, I think of Iceland and Alaska and warm cabins and forests and moose so I just wanted to do some themed art!

All the Winter Things: Hot Cocoa, Plaid, and Snowflake Nail Art

 Press Sample

So January is a weird month. Nail art is kind of whatever you want! But I'm not quite at florals, but still in winter and snow moods. Again, no snow yet! Just an hour of pretty flurries. But that snowy mood is what made me want to do this art!

As promised, January is slow, haha. I had polishes swatched and just couldn't get the ooomph to post. Well I have the second holiday trio from Zoya to show you today! Unlike the Y2K trio, this is a dark and moody trio perfect for the gray skies we so often see in January. So let’s take a look at these pretty polishes.

Stamped Trees over Stella Chroma Snowed In

 Press Sample

 Quickie post today! I was going to plop this onto the previous post, but why smoosh it in there? I posted a swatch of Stella Chroma Snowed In and knew it called for some simple art. I actually wore it for 6 days with zero chips and then 2 more days with this quick art, so let's take a look!

Stella Chroma Snowed In

Press Sample

Hello everyone! January is a slow month and also a catch-up month for me. I have a few Zoya collections to share that are just painfully late and some winter nail art I want to do. But first, I want to share a special polish from Stella Chroma. Unfortunately, this was a Facebook group custom that was available for an extremely limited time. By the time I got it, it was no longer available due to the unfortunate circumstances and Stella Chroma needing to take some well needed time off. I am one of Stella Chroma's biggest fans (I labeled myself that lol) so I still wanted to share!
