Limited Edition Zoya Blogger Collection by Birchbox


Anyone reading this seen this yet or get your hands on it?  If not, stay tuned because I'm giving a set of them away!!!!!  I got a really good deal on mine on Birchbox and then ended up with more points that helped me get the same great deal for a second set I thought I'd get for my subscribers!  

The card that comes with the collection reads:

Birchbox and Zoya teamed up with top beauty bloggers to create these custom polishes.  Each blogger designed a mood board based on her favorite spring/summer color, and then we asked our Facebook fans to pick the top 3 boards to complete the Zoya Blogger Collection.  You'll wear these on-trend shades all season.  Apply one coat of this buildable jelly formula for a wash of color or layer on for a pop of color!

Interestingly enough, I just went to Birchbox and Zoya to see what they were describing them as and the first instinct when I saw the colors is how they described them!You can click on the picture above to find the collection on Birchbox for $22. You can click the bottle of each to go to the respective blogs! All pictures are taken with my Nikon D80 outside then inside with the bottle and the thumb outside. 

NOW ON TO THE POLISHES! 

Coraline by Eleventh Gorgeous



 Zoya Coraline is created by Eleventh Gorgeous! It is described as a warm juicy tangerine.  That's exactly what came to mind when I saw it! love this! 

Kate by The Small Things



              

Zoya Kate is created by The Small Things and is described as a pinkish grapefruit and that is totally what came to my mind too! I was floored that I had come up with fruits for what to compare it to and they ended up being what was intended for! Guess that means they got it right!

Belle by Capital Hill Style





Zoya Belle is created by Capital Hill Style and is described as a coppery pink which features microscopic bits of iridescent glitter.  Now, when I saw this, I had come up with a fruit for this too!  Watermelon anyone? I'm loving this color!

I did all swatches using Orly's Daylight as a base. and now I'm guessing you want to know about the giveaway!  after the jump!
