Maybe my favorite mani to date?

Can I just say, the polishes I'm going to show you guys tonight are simply amazing. I mean, I was actually really sad when this mani chipped! The polishes that I'm going to show you tonight that I absolutely love love love are Zoya Blu and Pretty & Polished Wherever You Go, I Virgo. I'll do two separate reviews for each polish. Ready? Let's go!

Blu

Color: Pale powder blue

Finish: Crème – a flat polish that finishes smooth with full opacity.

Bottle / Brush: Tapered bottle and cap - bottle tapers from a fat top to a smaller bottom making it a little harder to hold if you hold your bottles while you paint. The tapered cap actually makes for easier application as it's shorter than most caps, but provides enough length to help guide application without being too wide where you grip it. The wand and brush are a little short, but they have average application.

Opacity: Medium – achieves opacity at three coats.

Glitter Application: N/A

Consistency: Medium – applies easily and doesn’t flood the cuticles.

Overall Ease of Application: Easy – applies well without pooling, dragging, streaking, or balding.  Spreads evenly and smoothly.

Stampability: Not tested for stamping, but I need to!

Dry Time: Medium – dry to the touch with minimal smudging in 3-8 minutes.

Overall Thoughts: Yeah. Yesterday I mentioned that most Zoya cremes don't tend to work well with me or my body chemistry, but Blu, like Yana, was perfect. Application was flawless. The look was smooth and perfect upon drying. I wanted to wear that mani forever. This is legit one of my favorite polishes ever.

Wherever You Go, I Virgo

Color: White with various shades, sizes, and cuts of blue and gunmetal glitters.

Finish: Glitter Crème – glitter in a crème base.

Bottle / Brush: Round bottle – the brush and wand are the standard width and length.  Easy to control and manipulate.

Opacity: Medium – achieves opacity at three coats. Can I just add, too, that this was a STREAK FREE opacity at three coats - without undies. Yup. The perfect white crelly, ladies and gents!

Glitter Application: Easy – Spreads evenly without much manipulation.

Consistency: Medium – applies easily and doesn’t flood the cuticles.

Overall Ease of Application: Easy – applies well without pooling, dragging, streaking, or balding.  Spreads evenly and smoothly.

Stampability: Not designed for stamping.

Dry Time: Medium – dry to the touch with minimal smudging in 3-8 minutes.

Overall Thoughts: The minute I saw that Chels had come out with this polish in her Zodiac collection, I just knew I had to have it. I'm so glad I got it, too, because not only was it the perfect partner for Blu, but it's also a stunning polish in its own right. I probably could've gotten away with just two coats, which is unheard of for a white based polish, at least for me, but I went ahead and added another to beef up the opacity and add depth. Application was amazing. As I said above, it was STREAK FREE. Really?! Yes. Gorgeous. Another favorite added to the list. Although, I'm not surprised as Pretty & Polished is one of the best at making white crelly glitters.

You can purchase Zoya polishes at salons or other beauty supply stores where they are sold, i.e. Ulta. You can purchase Pretty & Polished at their online store. Follow Chels and the gang on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for news and updates on new lines.

What's your favorite white crelly glitter?
