This week, I'm super duper excited to share with you the Zoya Lovely Spring 2013 Collection. Today, I'm kicking off with Jacqueline, a light buttercup yellow nude with a creme finish.
Jacqueline was originally released as part of the limited edition Peter Som NYFW 2013 Spring trio last year. In the bottle, this color looks quite nude, but the yellow tint really comes out once it's on the nails. While this is mostly a creme finish, it does have a tiny bit of pearly shimmer visible in the bottle, which translates to the smallest hint of a glow on the nails.
This is easy to apply, coming out in smooth and even coats and drying to a shiny finish. I did two coats for opaque coverage in the swatches, though a third coat wouldn't hurt to even out some minor patchy spots. Dry time is nice and quick, so you need not wait long between coats.

The closest color to Jacqueline that I have in my stash is Zoya's Cho, so I did a quick comparison. As you can see, Cho is noticeably darker and more nude, while Jacqueline is softer and more yellow. They do share the same finish — creme with the slightest hint of pearly sheen.
You can find Jacqueline on Zoya.com for $8 for 0.5 fl oz. If you are new to Zoya, you can get your first two bottles of Zoya for $8 total and free shipping! More info HERE.

Love this one. Looks really cool nude polish shade!
ReplyDeleteJacqueline's gorgeous on you! I think it's such a pretty shade and I adore the description, but skintone definitely makes or breaks it. I can't wait to see it irl.
ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you like it on me! I agree, this might be a tricky color depending on the skintone. It's usually that way with yellows. :-)

ReplyDeleteThanks, I'm glad you like it on me! This might be a tricky color depending on skintone, but hopefully it works for you. :-)

Wow I've never seen a colour like this before. Sorry for my absence Yun! I've missed seeing your beautiful swatches, and this colour is surprisingly stunning in all it's simplicity. Damn it, another lemming to kill! xx
ReplyDeleteIt is stunningly simple, isn't it? No worries, it's always great to see you around, but I know real life gets busy too. <3

THere are quite a few colors I like in this collection-am trying so hard to be on a no buy
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you're liking this collection, though I totally understand about being on a no buy. :-)
Delete~ Yun
this one is so nice!! i'm still on a fence whether i need it or not, I usually don't go for nudes...
ReplyDeleteI'm usually not a nude person either, but there is enough yellow in this one for it to be bordering on a pastel. :-)
Delete~ Yun
Oh wow!! This one I need!!! it's like a white with a twist. And that twist is saving it from being chalky or weird on the nails.
ReplyDeleteI just love how it looks!!!!!
Isn't it awesome?! I think you would really like this one! :D
