Zoya Ignite Fall 2014 Collection Swatches and Review

Hello guys, today I've got the Zoya Ignite collection to share with you. You may remember the other fall collection that Zoya released this season - the Entice collection, which consisted of six creams. Well, as its name suggests, the Ignite collection consists of six shimmer packed polishes that remind me of sparks!


All of these polishes feature the same golden shimmer, but the almost jelly-like base of each polish transforms them into a range of beautiful colors - sort of impossible to describe, really. You'll understand once you get a closer look! Shall we?


Autumn is a classic burnt orange that's packed with golden shimmer and additional flecks of gold that just make it light up beautifully. This color is the epitome of autumn - it looks like the changing leaves, or a crackling fire. Shown above is two coats with top coat.


India is a deep burgundy-red packed with golden shimmer, and hints of red and fuchsia shimmer as well. The rich red base of this polish deepens the gold shimmer and makes it look so rich! Another beautiful color. Shown above is two coats with top coat.


Teigen is a warm magenta packed with golden shimmer, and hints of a red shimmer. This color is very similar to India, but it has a distinctly cooler tone, making it look pinker. Also, the golden shimmer in this one is more prominent! Shown above is two coats with top coat.


Sansa is a blackened eggplant with tons of golden shimmer, and a hint of bright purple shimmer. This color is truly unique, and beautiful. The gold shimmer is so vibrant in the dark base and it creates such depth! Shown above is two coats with top coat.


Remy is a rich navy blue with a ton of golden shimmer that almost looks green paired with the base. This color is just stunning, and probably my favorite of the collection. It reminds me of looking into a deep ocean. Shown above is two coats with top coat.


And finally, we have Yuna, a cool toned gray packed with golden shimmer. The blue undertones of this polish almost make the gold shimmer look green, and the effect is gorgeous! Another truly unique color to add to my collection. Shown above is two coats with top coat.

Overall, I really enjoyed this collection. The colors and the added shimmer have a very regal feel to them, and I feel classy wearing them. A perfect fit for fall and winter! My favorites are Remy, Sansa, and Autumn.

These polishes are all available from Zoya and retail for $9 USD each. You can follow Zoya on Facebook for information about new collections and coupons!

Do you own any of these polishes? Which is your favorite?

Zoya Entice Fall 2014 Collection Swatches and Review

Here in New Jersey, it feels as if someone suddenly flipped a switch from summer to fall - the sky is gray, the wind has a chill... and I'm loving it! Today I've got more fall polishes to show off - this time, it's the Zoya Entice collection. Zoya has come out with two fall collections, each with six polishes, and Entice consists of six gorgeous dark creams that'll have you drooling.


What I love about this collection is that it's got such classic colors that look great on everyone. The formulas are great, as usual, and they all have an incredible shine. Let's take a look:


We'll start with Genevieve, a dark cool gray with the slightest hint of silver shimmer. The shimmer is hardly visible in my photo, and it is very subtle in real life, but I promise you it's there! This is the only polish in the collection with a shimmer, and I think that makes it pretty unique. Shown above is three thin coats - two for opacity, and one to smooth out any brushstrokes made from the silver shimmer - plus top coat.


Next is Ryan, a gorgeous navy blue cream. I found that this one dried slightly darker than the color of the bottle, but the color is still beautiful! I love a good navy blue, and this one is no exception. Shown above is two easy coats with top coat.


Margo is a purple leaning magenta cream. The polish is slightly more purple than my swatch shows - I struggled with color accuracy on this one! The color is gorgeous though, a classic fall color. Shown above is two easy coats with top coat.


Veronica is a red leaning magenta cream that's very similar to Margo. The difference here is that Veronica has a much redder tone, whereas Margo is distinctly purple. But I'm totally loving both, and I can see myself rocking this color all season. Shown above is two easy coats and top coat.


Claire is described as a rich burgundy cream. I really enjoyed this one - it was slightly thinner than the others (and slightly thinner than the usual Zoya formula), so it felt almost jelly-like to me, but I still achieved full opacity in two easy coats.  Shown above is two coats plus top coat.


And finally, we have Nyssa, a rich chocolatey medium brown cream. My swatch is showing it a bit warmer toned than it is in real life, but I think that also might have to do with my skin tone. I would say this polish looks more chocolate than caramel (as it appears above.) Another perfect fall polish! Shown above is two easy coats plus top coat.

Overall, I'm really enjoying these colors and I can't wait to wear them (with some classic dark jeans and brown boots, of course!) This collection is available now from Zoya for $9 USD each, or $54 for the entire collection.
