zoya mimi (sparkle)

sparkle is a really awesome zoya's collection from back in the summer of 2010, and mimi is one of it's stars. another beauty from this collection is ivanka.

mimi is described as a royal purple metallic polish, but this is just an oversimplified way to explain this awesome polish.

not only that the purple shade is so rich and deep, the shimmer in it gives it a lot of depth. the formula is also good, no brushstrokes whatsoever.

zoya ivanka (sparkle)

ivanka is a part of zoya's amazing sparkle collection from spring 2010.

zoya's description: "mermaid green sparkling metallic. an expensive-looking metallic shade for summer. "  it is a rather complex color to describe - the base is emerald green, with gold and and lighter green flecks and additional green shimmer. it has a duochrome effect, which i hope i managed to capture in some of the pics; it can look more green or yellow depending on the lighting and the angle.

i already mentioned that i love everything by zoya, so this one wasn't an exception. great formula, great application!
