Zoya - Jo and OPI - Save Me!

This is the first of my two 'free' polishes from Zoya.  I chose to try out Jo first.  On their website - Zoya describes Jo as:  " Delicate and serene looking medium periwinkle blue with subtle silver and blue toned shimmer."  I love me some blues and silver - and I hadn't really seen this color yet on many blogs - so here you go - check out the fun!  I love this color!  I also tried the Mini Color Lock System by Zoya, that I purchased along with the polishes.  I'm not wholly convinced this is a great combo - I had two nails wrinkle on me, when I was done - so not sure if that was just a mistake on my part or what - will have to try it again and see. :)

In this pic, I decided to show you the comparison of the nail to the bottle and the color spoon from Zoya.  In case you didn't see previously, Zoya provides color spoons of all their colors - basically for free (you are credited the $0.50 it costs to receive, towards future purposes) - so you can see a color before you buy the whole bottle!

Natural Light - Nail/Bottle/Spoon Comparison
Please don't judge my small nails!  I am on a computer all day - and tend to have very weak nails - hopefully they will grow and be stronger, now that I am taking better care of them. :)

So - the next day - I decided I was missing my shiny glitter - so I put Save Me on my nails as a top coat. Woot!   Gotta love the holo shine!  OPI - Save Me! is from their recent Nicki Minaj line - it has what appear to be tiny silver glitters, with blue and pink bar holo glitter as well. This is one of those that catch the light so well and you just find yourself staring at while moving your nails back and forth, to see all the holo goodness!

Holo goodness! ;)
 
Hope you enjoyed my first nail post!  What do you think?  I love Jo!  I love the glitters in Save Me as well.  Do you have any of the Nicki Minaj line?  Are you like me - do you crave glitters when wearing a non-glitter polish?  I needs the bling! hehe

Zoya - Nail Mail!

So Zoya had a promotion - where you could get two free polishes - just pay S&H - and guess what I have gotten?!
Woot!






So, I ordered the colors Jo and Ki (l-r in pic above) - and ordered the Mini Color Lock System (behind the polishes) - and got S&H for free! :)  I also ordered a bunch of 'color spoons' from them as well.  Zoya will send you a 'color spoon' - which is an actual swatch of their polish, on a little plastic spoon - so you can see a color, before you buy an entire bottle!  They charge $0.50 for each spoon, but wait, they give you a gift certificate/code to use towards your next purchase from them, for the total you spent on any color spoons!  So basically, you're getting them for free! Woot! ;)  I will post my first mani ever on the blog tomorrow - so you can see the awesome Jo!

Did you get in on this deal from Zoya?  If so - what colors did you order?  Do you have any favorites that you've already tried? :)
