Zoya Paz - Swatches and Review

I picked up Zoya Paz the other day on a whim. I've been a life-long hater of all things orange, even going so far as tossing out the orange highlighter from brand new packages through the years. I never saw a psychologist about it or anything, but I'm a fairly simple gal and I'm guessing it had something to do with having bright orange hair and taking CRAP for it. LOL! But in the last year or two, it's kind of grown on me. It was a dreary day and it looked like such a bright fun color!

I put it on and holy moly!!!  It was SUPER bright. And I actually liked it! *faint*

Zoya Paz was part of the La-Di-Da half of Zoya's 2009 Summer Collection. NEONS! I've never really been a fan of neons either. Leave it to Zoya to convince me otherwise.

Paz is a bright neon orange "crelly."  Part creme, part jelly. But it's enough on the creme side that it doesn't take 6 coats - which is my problem with jellies.  I used 3 coats of this and a top coat. And remember, this is a  you-need-sunglasses-bright polish, which doesn't translate well in photos. My photos at least. But I did the best I could to capture it. *only one photo shows it without top coat*

The formula was great and application was easy. No clean up. It did take one extra coat (than my normal two) but it dries quickly. No issues whatsoever.

This 2nd photo does the best job of capturing it...

This 4th photo below is without top coat. As you can see, like most neons, it doesn't dry super shiny. But it's not nearly as dull as some of them are. It's almost got that "rubber finish" look to it.

So for someone who didn't used to like orange or neons, this orange neon totally won me over! Way to go Zoya!

Zoya polishes are available for $8 at some Ulta stores or at zoya.com.

How do you feel about it? Do you own it?
