ZOYA NAIL POLISH Urban Grunge (mettalic holos) : Swatches and Review



Hi there, my darlings! You know what baffles me? The relative lack of interesting finishes in the mainstream world. Sure, they make great cremes, maybe even good shimmers but holos? Not so much! Well at least until now! I;m really glad that  Zoya Nail Polish and Treatment has decided to foray into the world of holos with the new metallic holos from the Urban Grunge collection for Fall 2016!


This collection consists of 6 polishes in metallic or holo finishes and gorgeous, vibrant shade shades. Across the board, both formula and application was divine--buttery smooth and easy to work with. These were all easy two-coaters--you could probably get away with one coat if you tend to paint very generously, I preferred two coats for full opacity. All the swatches below show just 2 thin coats of each polish by itself on the index and middle fingers and 1 generous coat on the ring and pinkie fingers for the sake of comparison. Further, I added topcoat to the index and ring fingers just to see if they needed it. They do NOT! But take a peek for yourself!


Alicia is described as "a linear holo with a touch of gold.". One of my favorites of this collection, I love both the gold running through it and the pretty strong, albeit scattered, holo effect!

Ash is described as "a vibrant cherry with a red and gold metallic shimmer.". Another instant fave, I'm a total sucker for luscious reds like this one!










With flash!




Finley is described as "a deep royal purpe scattered holo". At the risk of repeating myselg...yup! Another fave! But can you blame me with this stunning purple?!










With flash!




Britta is described as "a berry metallic with a red and purple fuchsia flash.". I couldn't tell the difference between Ash and Britta in the bottle at first but on the nail, it's immediately evident! And I love this one just as much!










With flash!




Merida is described as "a brilliant lush evergreen scattered holo. Smooth application with an elegant 2 coat coverage". I think the Disney Princess would be pleased with this gorgeous green!










With flash!




Troy is described as "a liquid pewter with a foil finish and an edgy touch of black and gold. Densely pigmented, smooth application". Metallics can be tricky to apply but I was really impressed with the formula of this one--it really applied beautifully!










With flash!




So there you have it, my darlings! The Zoya Urban Grunge metallic holos are available now on Zoya's website HERE for the price of $10 for a full-size, 0.5 oz bottle or $60 for the set of 6.
