I’m so excited! Just a few days away from the official start of summer! And these new polishes from Zoya are completely on trend! This has been the year of brights when it comes to fashion and beauty and Zoya brought out a 12-piece collection, a mix of texture and colour.
I’ll review the first half of the collection here, Beach.
NSFW you ask? Not Safe For Work in web speak!! But this classic red creme polish is absolutely suitable for work and play! I also rocked this for various New York Fashion Week events (NYFW)!
I have taken advantage of some recent sales and collected a few more nail polishes to add to my arsenal. I got some stuff from Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics and Zoya. Both are vegan lines, by the way.

Extravaganza is part of OCC’s Fall 2011 collection, Pretty Boy. I think for autumn, it is an unusual colour as it reminds me of summer, but it is warm somewhere in the world, isn’t it? LOL! Extravaganza is a pinkish-coral with green-gold duochrome microshimmer. This was one of the stand out colours from this collection, I love it. It is bright but not neon and I think that it works well for women with darker skin as well as ladies with lighter complexion. Finally I think that this colour is pretty neutral, not to warm or too cool. I needed at least 2 coats for this one. The formula is on the thinner side and not too streaky.
