Zoya Toasty and Daydreaming Comparisons

 Press Sample

So as I mentioned in my Toasty post, I had been meaning to re-organize and go through my Zoya drawers. As collections come in, it's hard to organize and I just throw them in a drawer. So I pulled them all out, was quickly overwhelmed, and tried to reorganize. I still have A LOT of comparisons to do but I wanted to show the ones I did for the most recent collections. I did these on my nail mat because my back hurt so much from organizing hundreds of Zoyas.

Zoya Daydreaming for Spring 2023, Swatches and Review

 Press Sample

Are you so proud of me? I am 100% caught up on Zoya swatches AND showing a collection early! To me, March isn’t really spring since it’s usually still pretty cold. But since these polishes released just a few weeks ago (and they released them before I even had them), I am here to share. This 6-piece collection is full of unexpected shades of shimmer. So let’s take a look.

Zoya Toasty Abstract Nail Art

Press Sample

I have a lot of Zoya posts this month! I wanted to do some abstract Zoya Toasty nail art. It literally snowed last week and it's been freezing so my brain is not all about pastels and spring yet, despite it literally being spring. So after it snowed last week, I put on these nails!

KBShimmer Plant One on Me, Spring 2023 Collection

Press Sample

I took over 625 pictures of these polishes because I have problems lol. That's how many different angles I wanted to share. I narrowed them down to just over 100 photos, because well, that's all I could do. I get so excited to share photos in all different lighting that I take too many. But really, these polishes are so sparkly and have so much dimension, I just have to share them.

St. Patrick's Day Rainbow Dotticure with KBShimmer Spring 2023 Collection

 Press Sample

Hi all! St. Patrick's Day is this Friday and I figured I could squeeze one look in. As I mentioned last post, I cut my nails down, then had a break, so I have super shorties. I wanted a quick mani and loved KBShimmer's Looking for Love for Polish Pickup. As I wore it, I realized, perfect base for some simple art!

Checkered Nail Art

 Press Sample

Hello everyone and meet my new shorties. I was just sitting at home  and I said I don’t want long nails right now and so I chopped them off. I go through phases but it felt really nice to start fresh. So you might see my nails go back-and-forth between long and short because I chopped them off after swatching three collections in one week. That’s probably what prompted me to chop them off. And would you believe, that I had A BREAK with these short nails. I bet you can see it. So my nails are even shorter now.

Zoya Toasty, Transitional 2023 Swatches and Review

Press Sample

Oh my, I am actually on time-ish with my Zoyas. I am so proud. While I just shared last year's transitional collection, now I have this year's. I actually love these transitional collections. They are year round to me and I just love how clean and pretty they look. So let's get to Toasty.

Subtle Damask Stamping with KBShimmer Lightning Strikes

 Press Sample

So I just did two very loud Mardi Gras manicures and then I swatched a nine piece collection with lots of sparkles and shimmers (coming soon!) so I really wanted something that was soft and calming. I didn’t put away KBShimmer Lightning Strikes yet and I really loved this polish. This is her March 2023 Polish Pickup color. It’s so soft and beautiful and so I decided let’s put that on and do some simple stamping. It’s been a while since I’ve stamped so I really wanted something light and pretty.
