Zoya’s Jewels collection

I’m not quite sure why this color was called “Jewels”, or now the colors or the names run together to form a theme…but there must be something in there somewhere. I have only three shades from this collection, and I’ve gotten the spoons for the other shades…and confirmed: yep, they are Not My Thing. I originally just got Jinx, because I was looking for some semi-neutral shades that weren’t simply bland, or sheer. Then I got Ruby, because I wanted to get some more true reds. I’ve also got Faith, because of the rich red and the duochrome. The semisheer bit had me a little uneasy, but I got the spoon and saw that it could build, or I could use it over red cremes and use Faith as the sheer color- and duochrome-wash topcoat. I have a few opacity-3 polishes and like them, but I can most easily use them as layering polishes…and I want an opaque version of Faith.
