Zoya Love
Todays mani is brought to you by the letter Z, Z is for ZOYA, who makes amazing polishes :) Last night I asked hubby to pick any color, he went with purple...debated between Mira, Kieko and some ChG's. Mira won out by hubby picking it.
Mira went on great, just like all my other Zoya polishes do. I COULD have gotten away with one coat but I always do two. Mira is a deep rich purple that is super pretty. There was no streakiness, no brush stroke marks, and it has a really pretty shine to it. I started with SH Clear, 2 coats of Mira and a coat of OPI quick dry top.
I had to post this give-a-way as well, 100 bottles! Can you imagine!? Check out Nail Fanatic's Blog for her give-a-way that ends in May!
Also, one last picture...this is regarding Momma's Boy Monday. I thought I'd introduce you to Momma's Boy :) This is Lucky, my love. He is going to be 10 this year going on 2, lol. He is such a lover and is my snuggle buddy. We got him when he was a puppy when we lived in Iowa. He is just the SWEETEST dog ever :) I <3 him beyond words!

Mommas Boy Monday...
Good afternoon lovely readers! Hubby suggested I do a day of the week mani for our dogs, as some do already, or with their cats lol Lucky is my dog, so no days of the week start with L, but hubby calls him Mommas Boy all the time soooo thats close enough! So from now on, we have Mommas Boy Mondays! Hubby put about 6 bottles down for Lucky to choose from, and whichever he knocked over first is what I went with, sooooo today I am sporting ChG Flip Flop Fantasy :)
Hubby and I went to a mall and to dinner yesterday and stopped in at a dusty that I've probably walked by 50 times in this mall. The first time we went past it I said "nahh, they probably don't sell...". On the way out hubby told me to just pop in, and who would have guessed? A HUGE table with FOR SALE on it lol I started looking through the stuff and then hubby goes "Babe, look, silver caps!" Eeeeeeeee! I started shaking because I'm that big of a goober lol. They had most of the ChG OMG collection! I picked up IDK and DV8. They had more, but ugh, I had just bought 4 other bottles at Sally's and Ulta...I will be back after pay day lol. I ALMOST got L8R G8R but put it back, so when I was checking out the lady said to me, "You didn't get the green, the green is so pretty!". Sooooo, yea, told her I'll be back after pay lol. I'm trying to decide of I should get a OMG or not because I have GOSH Holo and they are pretty much the same, BUT GOSH is not selling their holo anymore so I may grab it...
As I said, I also went to Ulta with my 20% off coupon, and stopped in at Sally's for their B2G1. I picked up OPI Charged up Cherries at Ulta thanks to hubby...every time we go to Ulta he picks up one bottle and goes "I really like this one..." and it's CuC lol. I also got some eyeliner. We then went to Sallys where I got ChG Flip Flop Fantasy, Sun Worshipper, and Purple Panic thanks to the suggestion of Katie W who commented to me about good neons from ChG.
This went on SO good! It was smooth and creamy with NO application issues. FFF is really sheer so I did have to do 3 coats, but that is ok with me because I ADORE the outcome. I did realize after seeing it that I need to start tanning lol There was NO streakiness and it did dry a bit matte, so of course I showed my dying bottle of Seche Vite some more love and slapped that on as well.

Love my post man! lol
Ok so yesterday my Zoya BOGO order arrived! The main thing I wanted was the ModMatte set. I also liked Apple. Sooooo, my plan was B2G2 free. No, hubby had other plans lol. I got my 4 I wanted, PLUS 4 more! So I also go Kieko, Breezi, Areej, and Mira on TOP of Phoebe, Lolly, Mitzi and Apple.
Mitzi is a pretty neon-ish more green than yellow color. It was super streaky to put on. Now I'm not sure if this is how Matte polishes are, because this is my first Matte collection. I do know that yellows usually pose a problem for most of us being streaky so who knows. I did 2 coats of her and she turned out super cute. No bubbles, no lumps or anything. She went on really good other than the streaks, which was fixed after it's 2nd coat.
Lolly is a fun deep hot pink color. She didn't streak nearly as bad as Mitzi so I'm going to assume Mattes are a little bit harder to apply because she DID have a small streaking problem. After her 2nd coat you couldn't see any bald spots though.
Phoebe has a bit of shimmer to her which I love. She again, went on a bit streaky. After swatching her I realized she almost matches ChG Towel Boy Toy, which also went on Matte for me. I do love this color though! After top coating her she looked even more amazing.
So I'm happy with my purchase of this collection over all. My next quest is for NEONS. REAL neons, I'd like a orange, green, pink, blue and maybe a purple. I have a yellow already. Any suggestions all?
Aren't the PRETTY!?!!? I love 'em! So when they came I couldn't decide what to do but I KNEW I wanted to use the ModMattes. I really don't like Mattes but these colors were too fun to pass! I decided to do a skittles with them, and top coat after. Below is a coat of SH Clear, 2 coats of the Mattes followed by a coat of Seche Vite. Hubby tells me I need to be more descriptive in my reviews/thoughts on the polish so I will try :P lolMitzi is a pretty neon-ish more green than yellow color. It was super streaky to put on.

Bieber Fever...
Ok, so I caved. I got the Fever lol. I bought Nicole by OPI "One Less Lonely Glitter" and love it. I started with SH Clear, 2 coats of Jesse's Girl "Spring Break", 2 coats of NOPI "OLLG", followed by the lovely and amazing Seche Vite. I only got 1 picture of this though because the weather was so icky out.
The polish went on super smooth, hardly any grit. Love this polish :)

On a streak...a blue streak...
So I'm sporting a blue mani today that I LOVE. I did a coat of SH Clear, 2 coats of Ulta "Blue Streak", and on my accent nails, a coat of China Glaze "Dorothy Who". Topped it all with a coat of Seche Vite. LOVED this! Got a ton of compliments on it, was super cute. Both of these polishes went on SUPER smooth, no brush streaks.
This was a super fun and cute mani that I loved :)
