Zoya Cashmeres Collection Swatches and Review

I am so not ready, but it is time to show you some beautiful Fall collections. Starting today with the Zoya Cashmeres collection. It contains six cream shades that are perfect for the upcoming season. Did I mention I'm not ready for Fall yet? I've already showed you my nail art with a few of these and trust me, you'll be seeing more of them...


Livingston
A deep red jelly. Not the most unique color, but it is very sexy and pinup-y in my opinion. It is easy to apply but the jelly formula is a bit thin and needs three coats to reach full opacity as seen in these swatches. The first coat looks very bright, but it deepens as the second and third coats are added. Swatches are with no top coat...

Pepper
A brick red cream. It has a rich and creamy formula that provides complete coverage in two coats. My bf called this a rotted cherry color and commented how much he likes it. I would have to agree, it is a beautiful color and it get bonus points in my book for impressing my bf. Swatches are with no top coat...

Sailor
A slightly dusty navy blue cream. This is my favorite from this collection. I've been drawn to blues more than usual lately and this really calls out to me. The formula is perfect and creamy. Is is very pigmented and you can probably get away with just one coat, but I used my minimum two coats for these swatches. No top coat..

Flynn
A beige or light brown cream. Nice creamy formula that is easy to work with on this one. It is opaque in two coats. Swatches are with no top coat. I have a strong association of the name Flynn to Flynn's Carpet Cents store in my neck of the woods. They used to have ads on TV and radio ALL the time! I can't hear that name without thinking about carpet now. Funny enough, Zoya's Flynn is just a bit darker than the carpet in my house, so yeah... Carpet talk aside though, it is a pretty color and I used it in my feather manicure not too long ago...

Louise
A dark chocolate brown cream. This also has a perfect smooth and creamy formula. It provides great coverage in two coats. In certain light it has a greenish tint which I don't find most appealing, but majority of the time it is this beautiful delicious brown. I've already used it for this hexy manicure as well as for stamping in the feather manicure. Yes, it stamps well! No top coat in these swatches...
