Just Another Mani Monday: Zoya Adina

Hello, my Pretties!

Happy Day After Super Bowl!

So, yeah, the Super Bowl was last night.  Did you all watch?  I did.  Well, on and off.  Who were you rooting for?  I was saying, "Go GIANTS!" all night!  I'm not a sports authority at all.  I was watching the game because we were invited to my sister's house and there was tons of pizza and soda so I had to go!  Yay!!

If you're asking why I chose the Giants, this is my system.  First, I always root for the team from Texas (which in this case would be the Cowboys) but since there was no Texas team, I then root for the team with the cutest quarterback.  Manning or Brady??  I think they are both cute.  So, moving on to the next step in my method.  Who has the nicer looking uniform?  In this case it would have been the Patriots.  BUT...but since everyone in the house was rooting for the Patriots, then comes the last and final decision maker.  CHOOSE THE TEAM THAT EVERYONE IS AGAINST.  Haha.  And viola!  My team for the night was the Giants and they WON!!  Boo-ya!

So, anyhow, during the game, my sisters and I were polishing our nails.  I took my small collection of Zoya nail polishes.  Yes, all five of them.  My sisters had never tired Zoya but have only heard me rave about them.  We all chose different colors which I think suited us to a T.

My older sister chose Alegra, my younger sister chose Faye and I picked Adina.  Oh, Adina, how I love you.

I cannot tell you how much I love this color.  I love the sheer uniqueness of it.  I love how in certain lights and angles, the polish looks purple and then you shift and it's green.  So gorgeous!

All photos show two coats of Adina.  I did not do snap shots of Adina with one coat simply because I forgot.  But you're not missing much.  It is quite sheer with one coat.  Definitely needs two!

I have one other nail polish from the Zoya Reverie Collection and that would be Reece.  I chose Reece because of my daughter's middle name (but we spell it Reese) but it turned out to be a beautiful polish too.  It's a girlie pink rose color with a gold duochrome.  I want more of the polishes in the Reverie Collection.  I plan on getting Happi next!  To see the rest of the Reverie Collection, click HERE.

So, don't you all think this polish is simply wonderful?  I think you do!

Luv & Luk,
