Zoya Zuza with a heart

Hello there lovelies! How are you tonight? 

This mani was really fun for me. I received my Zoya Surf collection a day early, and when I got home from work there they were, waiting to be loved on! It's a beautiful collection. I'm a sucker for foils and  these made me squeal like a little girl. Zoya really delivered on this one, and remains my favorite brand. Let's take a look at the first from this collection, Zuza.


Zuza is a soft, dusty teal with a lovely foil finish. She applied like butter with no streaking, pooling, or dragging. Shown are two wonderful coats.


This is without a top coat. Isn't she gorgeous? That silver shimmer rocks my world.


I decided to glam Zuza up after a day of wear. Work always gives me major tipwear, so this was a great mask for the imperfections. I used black acrylic paint from a set I found at dollar tree and some nail art brushes from Ebay. I got 15 brushes for $3.00 and some change- suuuch an amazing deal! I always loved THIS tutorial from Nailside. The white dots were done with a dotting tool and then covered with a thin coat of Seche Vite.


What do you think? I'm so pleased!! The other hand doesn't look so good, but it's a work in progress. :)

Hope your Saturday was lovely. Thanks for coming by!
