Zoya Sophisticates Collection Swatches & Review Part II


Zoya Sophisticates collection

Hello readers,
Today I have the second half of the Zoya Sophisticates collection for Fall 2017 to share with you. If you missed the first six shades, check them out here. Let's take a look at swatches for the remaining polishes.

Mona

Zoya MonaZoya Sophisticates

Mona is a dark vampy berry creme. The formula was a teeny bit thick, but still relatively easy to work with. It took two coats to become opaque and dried with a shiny finish. Photos show two coat of Mona with one coat of Girly Bits Cosmetics What A Rush top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Yvonne

Zoya YvonneZoya Sophisticates

Yvonne is a deep red leaning berry creme. The formula was excellent and took two easy thin coats to become opaque. This shade dries very shiny on its own but I added top coat out of habit. Photos show two coats of Yvonne with one coat of Girly Bits Cosmetics What A Rush top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Tabitha

Zoya TabithaZoya Sophisticates

Tabitha is a muted forest green with a fine green shimmer. The formula was very easy to work with. Thought it seems sheer on the first coat, it builds up nicely taking two coats for full coverage. This shade dries somewhere between satin and shiny, so I recommend a glossy top coat to really bring out the shimmer. Photos show two coats of Tabitha with one coat of Girly Bits Cosmetics What A Rush top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Elaine

Zoya ElaineZoya Sophisticates

Elaine is a blacked purple leaning brown creme. It the bottle it looks like a deep blackened purple, but it definitely dries to a predominantly brown tone. The formula was a bit thick but quite pigmented. If you were really careful you could get full coverage in a single coat, but I did two quick coats here. Photos show two coats of Elaine with one coat of Girly Bits Cosmetics What A Rush top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Hadley

Zoya HadleyZoya Sophisticates

Hadley is a dark smokey blue. In some lighting in leans a bit teal as well. The formula was very similar to that of Elaine - a little thick but very pigmented. I used two coats here, but if you were careful you could get away with one. I think I might add a little thinner to this shade in the future and make it a true two coater. Photos show two coats of Hadley with one coat of Girly Bits Cosmetics What A Rush top coat in daylight spectrum lighting.

Conclusion

Now that I've tried the entire Sophisticates collection, Hadley is joining Presley and Beth on my personal favorites list. I just love the smokey almost black but not quite shade. You can find Zoya on


Happy polishing,
