TweetI really wish I knew more information about the lawsuit Zoya filed against Julep. Beauty lawsuits aren’t uncommon and I’m all for protecting your brand. The Mixed Chicks lawsuit against Sally’s seems a lot more obvious than this one. But upon closer inspection I can completely understand why Zoya would file suit. Julep names their nail colors after women…just like Zoya does. Hits a little too close. This suit even Read More ...
TweetZoya Nail Lacquer has been off my radar as of lately but a few of you have asked me my opinion about their recent attempt at a “nude” collection. :: long deep sigh:: I’m a woman of color… rich in color and proud of it. I don’t feel that this is a nude collection that reflects a wide variety of skin-tones. Undertones, yes, but not skin-tones. Everyone has a their Read More ...
TweetSorry about the not so great lighting– I took the pics in the office. My freebie order arrived a week ago and I’ve been wearing “Bella” since it came. This is a great everyday sheer/ jelly-like pink color. It easily replaced Essie “Mademoiselle” as my favorite sheer pink. It’s the same color but it’s more pigmented so I can use 2 coats instead of 3. You can still see a Read More ...

Tweet I finally saw Black Swan this weekend after holding off for so long. Despite the wonderful praise and reviews I didn’t enjoy the movie. I can appreciate the art & beauty, Nina (Natalie Portman) getting down (with herself), and the popcorn was really good—but that’s about it. I’m all for dark and trippy (physiological thrillers rock my world) but the movie moved slow and became predictable. At the end Read More ...
Tweet Not to start this post off being a total buzz kill but I’m already over the holidays. Nail polish is the only thing keeping me going. I started a new job last week and I’m already feeling the pressure to participate in a Secret Santa gift exchange with people I just met…awkward. They also want everyone help bring Christmas tree ornaments to decorate the tree- I just spent what Read More ...

Tweet Here are the results of my 5 day Zoya wearability test. I used the color “Kelly” and it held up great! I only noticed a small amount of tip wear, which is completely normal and a tiny chip on the side. I can easily blame the tiny chip on a funky cuticle I have on that nail. The shine held up nicely and I could have easily worn this Read More ...
TweetAm I a self-proclaimed polish snob? Yes. Do I always want my manicure to look as fresh as possible at all times? Sure. I want my manicure to remain intact until I decide to remove it. Even if I’m wearing inexpensive nail polish I expect it to last 4-7 days without chipping or peeling. From my experience I haven’t noticed much of a wearability difference between cheap nail polish brands Read More ...
