Review: ZOYA 'Jubilee' Holiday/Winter 2018 Collection

Review: ZOYA ‘Jubilee’ Holiday 2018 Collection

Product Review

  The holiday season will "officially" be underway in just a few days, therefore it's almost time to rotate every festive nail color you have for the next 6 weeks! ZOYA will be on-hand, literally, for me this year thanks to their new "JUBILEE" Holiday 2018 Collection that TFC told you about back in September. The vibrant seasonal line features 12 beautiful colors ranging from classic nudes to brilliant reds, glittering shades, an animal print topper and dramatic tones 'yule' love! Basically, it's a whole mood. The folks over at ZOYA hooked The Fashion Court up with the line, so I wanted to share my swatch review for you. I'm sure you'll find a shade (or 12) for your next holiday party look; they also make a special gift to your polish-loving pal or, you know, treat yourself.

Review: OPI 'Washington D.C.' Fall/Winter 2016 Collection

Review: OPI ‘Washington D.C.’ Fall/Winter 2016 Collection

Product Review

Typically one of the most anticipated things of autumn each year is the new season of "Scandal", but the political hit ABC drama starring Kerry Washington doesn't return to TV until January, so that leaves something else to countdown to -- the Presidential election this November. OPI capitalized off of both (heh, get it?) by creating an unbelievable fall nail lacquer collection celebrating both with the OPI Washington, D.C. Fall/Winter 2016 Collection. This 15-shade line (which includes 3 Limited Edition colors) is inspired by "Scandal" while also being right on time for Americans to swipe their nails in one of the shades as they cast their vote for the next President of the United States this November. OPI thought of everything -- I guess they were channeling their inner Olivia Pope. I got my hands on the line to give you a peak of all of the new colors, and I think you're going to love them as much as I do. The only problem I see is that there just aren't enough days in the season to rock them all. But, hey, that's where nail art comes in.
Review: OPI 'Venice' Fall/Winter 2015 Collection

Review: OPI ‘Venice’ Fall/Winter 2015 Collection

Product Review

It's been a few weeks since the weather cooled off from the blistering summer days, and in just a few more we'll be expecting the bitterness of winter but, in the meantime, I'm basking in all things fall; from my wardrobe, to my daily pumpkin spice latte, right down to my nail polish. Thanks to OPI's latest autumnal collection, I'll be stylin' right through the season. OPI's Venice Fall/Winter 2015 Collection features 15 polishes inspired by the Baroque period decadence with a gorgeous variety of vampy deep shades to pearlescent hues and soft tones. I'm usually the type to stick to my dark colors throughout the season, but sometimes it's nice to add a soft palette to my look here and there during the "'ber months" (as we call them in my house). Check out all of the colors below, and find out how they stack up against each other.
Review: OPI Infinte Shine 'Soft Shades' 2015 Collection

Review: OPI Infinte Shine ‘Soft Shades’ 2015 Collection

Product Review

OPI is unleashed a major gel 12 polish collection called Infinite Shine over the summer, but before the release, they had given a little sneak peak with the OPI Infinite Shine Soft Shades collection; the 6 pastel shades include a pair of crisp whites, a peachy beige, a pale pinks, a subtle blue, and a shimmery pale grey. You may have seen the polish around in stores (they came out in May 2015), but I didn't get my hands onto them until recently. I was very grateful to receive the collection to review, but, unfortunately, I didn't get the setting gel so I avoided putting them on my nails to test them out. I'll pick one up at a later date but, in the meantime, I wanted to show you all the pretty colors in the collection -- it's a good thing I had my trusty nail polish tester wheel to display them. Check out all of the colors below!
Review: Deborah Lippmann 'Roar' Fall 2015 Collection

Review: Deborah Lippmann ‘Roar’ Fall 2015 Collection

Product Review

I always get super pumped for fall collections; give them all to me -- shoes, clothes, makeup, decorations, my drink at Starbucks...and most of all? The nail polish. What makes me even happier is when brands play with traditional deep crisp tones of the season instead of trying to give us bright colors of summer while telling us they're 'alternative fall colors'. No, that's not going to work for me and I'm pretty sure it doesn't work for other autumn color lovers. But, you know what? Deborah Lippmann gets that, and that's why she's developed a supreme palette of stunning fall tones wrapped up in a fierce collection - the Fall 2015 ROAR Collection, to be exact.
