Ok, so it's not quite a haul.
It's only 3 nail polishes but I saw a great deal and I grabbed it. That's all I
can say. I've discovered that a few times a year Zoya does that. They will have
a fantabulous sale and I'll pounce then.
I haven't made it a
secret that Zoya and I aren't besties. To me, they aren't any better than my
Sally Hansens or even my Wet n Wilds.
But, that being said, they aren't bad. So, if I see a sale that brings them
under the $9 or $10 price tag, I'll bite.
This deal was buy 3
free, get 3 minis and only pay $15. That means you are paying 5 bucks and
getting 3 minis free. I can live with that, especially since 2 of the colors
were ones that I was super curious about anyway. Let's just call this 3
shades of purple, shall we?
Marnie is said to be
the closest to the color of the year, Marsala. I am in love with the color of
the year because it's a color that works very well with my complexion. This
color isn't as close as I'd like to think. Don't get me wrong. It is a
beautiful, deep brown-purple that is about as vampy as I like to get but it
isn't my idea of Marsala. No worries though. I'll wear this color with pride.
Aubrey is very close to
Marnie in the bottle but, it is actually more of a plum-wine purple. It too is
very beautiful and rich and creamy. I will have no problem rockin' this one
either.
Odette is a dusty, winter
purple. To me it's the truest purple of the group but of course, not grape.
Many people have mentioned
how upset they are about the 3 minis that Zoya sent with their purchased. You
know, I'm not bothered. They were free polishes that honestly, I'd never have
bought but now I get to try. They look kinda weird but come one nail polish
gurus! You know we can make them work!
The first nail polish mini
is Charlotte. It's an innocent looking cream color. I think this off white with
a splash of pale yellow will make a great nail art base or something. I'm going
to play with it and see what I can do.
The second nail polish
mini is Anais. It's a pale black. Does that make since? It's not gray. It's not
true black. It's pale black. You would need three coats of this one. The others
two coats work. I'm not sure what I'll do with this one but I will make it
work. I promise.
The last freebie color
is Severine. It's a weird green, gold color. It doesn't look like a pure gold
color. I have no idea what to do with this color. I mean, I'm sure I'll do some
funky nail art but...never mind. I'll figure it out.
So $15 later, I have 3
polishes that I think I love and 3 mini polishes that I am going to love
playing with.
I'll let you know in a
bit how it all works out.
