Zoya Nidhi




I received Zoya Nidhi in the Valentine's Day promo they had. I fell in love with the swatches I saw. The bottle is even more beautiful in person.

In the shade:



In the sun:



Nidhi is a beautiful, bright red with flecks of, I believe, silver. It's a beautiful red metallic. Stunning. I don't own anything like it in my nail polish collection, and I own quite a few reds so it's hard to surprise me when it comes to that color family.

I put Seche Vite on top because it isn't dry very shiny, probably because of the glitter. However, with a top coat this polish absolutely shines! It's like glass. I love it.

Essie: Clambake


I've been eying Essie's clambake for a solid year. Something about it just jumped at me, but I didn't buy it until a week ago. I'm so glad I did. It's another beautiful, bright red. It has a slight orange base to it. I just love it. Bright reds are my favorite.

Milani+Color Club

Here is a fun and sparkly mani for you guys! First I used this red color club. I received it in the color club box I showed you in the previous nail haul post. It doesn't have a name or a number soo...it's just red.


This is my first experience with color club and so far I'm very pleased. The application with smooth. This is two coats and it looks great. It kind of gives me lobster hands though, so this will more than likely be headed to my swap or giveaway pile (if no one has an issue with that).

AND LOOK! My pointer finger is all better and back to making appearances in swatches! :P



I decided to put the red Milani Jewel FX on top and I'm really pleased with the outcome. It looks like a fun holiday manicure - lots of sparkle and red. It's very vibrant and in your face. Thanks to my mom for taking all the photos. She was very excited to be a part of this post, lol. :)

Zoya Gia

I love red. I own many red polishes and my favorite out of all of them is Zoya Gia. Sooki gets a lot of love for being the perfect red made by Zoya, but I disagree. Gia is where it's at!

Red is just...so messy. Maybe it's just me but my skin always stains. I tried hard to clean her up. Hopefully after my shower things will look a little better. Later tonight when this is for sure dry I'm going to attempt the rest of my v-day mani for you guys.


Gia is a great red, not as orange as the pictures are showing. In fact, not as orange at all. I'll have to work on that next time. The formula is great and I only need one coat for this. If clean up wasn't so messy for me she would be a great out-the-door polish.

For this mani used Seche Vite Ridge Filling base coat, Zoya Gia and Seche Vite fast try top coat. I also used my Zoya Fast dry drops. I love the fast dry drops. Unfortunately I'm almost out. :(

On a different note, I ordered some Biotin the other night. I heard it helps your hair and nails grow faster. My nails need some serious help so I'm anxious for my order to arrive! I also ordered Cod Liver oil because it's supposed to be great for your skin, and some Vitamin D because we all need some extra Vitamin D in the winter.
