Zoya’s Touch collection

This mini-collection (fewer colors than normal, not mini-bottles) is currently available for pre-order, and unlike other Zoya shades that stay in the regular lineup for a few years, this one’s marked as a limited edition…so if you’re interested, you might want to order them now. (Before all the rest of us buy our heir-and-a-spare.)

Photos that show how the product actually performs...! See how I create my swatches

The shades are:

  • Minka — latte beige creme (warm neutral; yellow undertones)
  • Shay — rosy-sand beige creme (warm neutral; red undertones)
  • Pandora — mauve beige creme (cool neutral; blue undertones)

I like jeweltoned and colored polishes (just take a look at the manicures I've done so far) but variety is good. I have a fairly decent selection of softer opaque and "neutral" polishes, and some of them are my favorites. I'm glad Zoya is releasing these.

The official press release says that they're all slightly metallic, but they're more like high-shine cremes that we've seen from other companies. The polishes are a bit thicker than most Zoya polishes, even most other Zoya cremes. These make excellent stamping polishes as well as regular manicure colors - two coats gives full and even coverage. Pandora is my personal favorite, followed closely by Shay. Minka doesn't work well with my skintone, and to be honest, I don't love the shade - but I'm betting that this will still be a good stamping or accent shade.
