Zoya Innocence Spring 2019 Collection

(Press samples ahead!)

Hello!

Happy Monday, everybody! I have something sweet to show you to jump-start the week: Zoya's Innocence Spring 2019 collection, packed with one-coat cremes and a lovely specialty glitter.

Let's jump right in with Zoya Agnes, a neutral creme with a warm peach blush:

Zoya Agnes

Coverage: 1-2 coats, depending on whether you have ridge issues like I do! I'm wearing two coats, with a coat of Seche Vite.
Formula & application: Even coverage with easy application. Dries well and shiny.

Zoya Agnes is a lovely warm-toned neutral that feels elegant and sophisticated. It's also a great base for nail art!

Next up we have Zoya Aire, a deep smoky periwinkle creme:

Coverage: One coat!
Formula & application: Even coverage with easy application. Dries well and shiny, although I'm wearing Seche Vite in these pictures.

Zoya Aire has a rich, deep feel to it that makes me think of nautical patterns, and makes me want to head out to the beach...since that's at least a few months off, at least I can enjoy the polish in the meantime.

Then there's Zoya Birch, a soft gray with a lavender blush:

Formula & application: Even coverage with easy application. Dries well and shiny.

Zoya Birch is the type of pastel I can get behind. It has a smoky feel that gives it a more adult feel, like your favorite Easter dress all grown up.

Next up is Zoya Evette, a smoky plum-grape creme:

Coverage: One coat!
Formula & application: Even coverage with easy application. Dries well and shiny, although I'm wearing Seche Vite here.

Zoya Evette is wildflowers in a huge meadow and grapes hanging in the vineyard. It's bright and sassy and saturated, and will bring a pop of gorgeous color to the rainiest spring day. :)

Next is Zoya Fern, a rich sage with a greenish-golden shimmer:

Coverage: 2 coats
Formula & application: Even coverage with easy application. Dries well and shiny, although I'm wearing a coat of Seche Vite.

I love Zoya Fern so hard...this makes me think of a glade of mossy trees on a rainy day. So peaceful and rich.

And finally, we have Zoya Theo, a pewter crelly with silver shards and dark blue glitter:

Coverage: 2 coats.
Formula & application: Even coverage with easy application. I'm wearing a coat of Seche Vite, but you might need a second coat if you want a completely smooth finish.

I love myself a good crelly, and this one looks like a thunderstorm in a bottle. No really, look at it! Those shards are like little flashes of lightning, and the dark glitters are like raindrops against a stormy sky. I love it!

So what do I think overall? Zoya continues their mastery of the one-coat creme, and I love knowing I can pick any of them up and get by with an easy single coat. I never get too excited about neutrals, but the other colors in this one are saturated and rich! I think this is an excellent collection for those of us who don't flock to pastels.
