jessFACE90 how does Emerson compare to Essie’s Virgin Snow colorwise? I’m not a fan of that Essie formula and I’m looking to replace it with a dupe. Thank you!
I like the white background. I actually think it looks more professional then the black one. I know you just sort of changed to the black and I don’t mind either but I like the white.
Today's video will have the black background because it was filmed earlier last week, but I'll probably stick with the white for a while. I have problems with oranges and corals showing up correctly with the white background and I have problems with neutrals showing up correctly on the black background. I think I prefer the look of the white though.
jessFACE90 ya just can win either way I guess lol! But I agree I think the white does look a bit better. Even if just for the fact that it camouflages they fuzz lol!
They usually have deals, I paid 50 cents for brushes, and a lot of times they throw them in for free. Like anything with Zoya, just wait for the promotions.
Great review Jess! This is a really pretty collection, I do wish they swapped out one of the neutrals for a different colour, but I do like the blue, green and purple. I love the names too :) Love your nails in this video also :)
I’ve been saying to myself for years that Zoya needs to make a pastel periwinkle blue like St Clair by kl Polish or Essie’s bikini so tinie. they still don’t have mint green. They had a pistachio green called Tiana and they have a “milk of magnesia green” called Neely. Leif is a pastel sage green.
I know the idea was "not everyone wants a wide brush so give people the option". I don't know how choosing at checkout would work as far as storing the bottles while they wait to be ordered, but if Zoya could figure out a way to do that it would be a perfect solution.
I like the two you picked the best, I usually make a large order when they release a new season collection, but this year since Autumn I've been holding back. The offers used to be great for Canadians, but Zoya has changed offers to Canada and after 30% charges extra using the high postal charges really takes the wind out of our sails, I'll wait until Earth Day or next time they have a special to order those two.
I picked up their spring calm box deal with the gel system yesterday. I'm looking forward to it! I wouldn't of bought these individually but the sale was a good deal over all. I like some of the colors here but the 3 peach shades is a meh. Feels like there's something missing. I definitely love the wide brush, I miss them when I don't have them in all bottles but it's just too expensive. I'll wait for a 70% sale and pick more up. 💜
I saw the offer but I just picked up the gelie cure system when they had the 70% off offer! So I guess I wait til another offer comes along! Loving playing with the new system!
Kathy Forgues how do you like it? I've watched reviews and I think it'll be easy to work with and to hopefully provide a nice foundation so they can grow a bit. Mine always peel and then once it starts I pick at it and then it all goes. Lol vicious cycle! 🤷♀️😂
@@ms_polished26 Am loving it, trying to heal a few nails so they will actually grow. It helps my manicure last longer than normal. But I also get bored easily and like to change my color often.
I like the white background. I only watch these on my iPhone8 so not sure if that makes a difference that should be ignored but ..... I see the color better against the white.
I purchased the new brushes when they had the Black Friday sale and in a recent Flash sale. Both sales were 70% off. So I purchased a ton of them. I do like the round tips.
Hi!! I have none of these brands in my country (no zoya, no essie, no OPI etc😢) so these reviews help me a lot when i order them online so thank you!!! I just wanted to ask, is there a polish almost exactly like zoya’s Leif but lighter more whiter green but with the same tone? Im this close to buying Leif because of this video but i just feel like i’d still like it a tad lighter...
That's a good idea. I'll have to play around with different colors and with my other camera. The one I'm using is so old and it's getting harder and harder to get decent footage.
Do you or any of your followers know of an exact match for OPI-Put it in neutral. I’ve been binge watching. Trying to switch over to all Zoya. Thanks in advance
I only like Lief and Emerson, but your videos are so nice, good lighting! The colors are pretty but sooo boring and repetitive from so many others in their collection and others. I received a couple of brushes for free but I would never buy them, I don't agree with it either!! Thanks for your work!
This collection released yesterday on zoya.com!

This collection is so boring to me. Too many like colors in their collections already. I guess I’ll keep saving. Oh well.
Zoya is really trippin thinking it is ok to charge $2 for a brush! So much for being eco-friendly too!
I thought they were a dollar. That's terrible. I like the small brush but I think they should just add the other brush for free.

straight jacket honestly I still think sinful colors sail la vie is better. And it’s only $1.99
Emerson is the star of the show! I love the little drop of purple in there- it makes it such a unique shade.
Yea that $2 brush is a no for me. Zoya needs to look at Essie and take notes.
Or maybe they could make the choice of brush an option at checkout. Same price, though, please!!
I know the idea was "not everyone wants a wide brush so give people the option". I don't know how choosing at checkout would work as far as storing the bottles while they wait to be ordered, but if Zoya could figure out a way to do that it would be a perfect solution.
Leif and Emerson are my favorites, too.

I honestly prefer the white background than the black background. Love your videos:)
Love your videos, and I love the white background!
Vee was my favorite!

Honestly, I not just parroting your thoughts, but my favorites are Emerson and Leif. So pretty! 🌺❤️🌺
I agree leif and emerson were the only ones that I would get

Prefer matte white background too. Any of the glitter, mirror or other light reflective backgrounds detract from color accuracy and camera focus.
Tfs! Great job posting swatches as you speak of favs!
I like Emerson and Vee, but they’re so close to colors I already have. Which is good because I’m trying to do a polish no-buy in 2020.

Vee the lilac colour is an exact dupe for the new Chanel spring 2020 lilac colour.
I agree with your top picks Emerson and Leif. The others don’t really stand out to me
Great swatch video! I love Emerson, Leif and Vee. The others are too bland for my skin/taste but I still purchased the set with the sale :)
I’m just curious if perhaps a medium tone color, like a neutral grey, could be good background color?
That's a good idea. I'll have to play around with different colors and with my other camera. The one I'm using is so old and it's getting harder and harder to get decent footage.
I agree...I think it would likely play nicest with a wider variety.
Yay white background!
Creams are so underwhelming for me. They work well under stamping though I guess. That Vee color would look gorgeous matte though I think!
Love Vee, is it similar to Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Island Punch from the Jelly Belly collection?
I really love Leif and Emerson!
Do you or any of your followers know of an exact match for OPI-Put it in neutral. I’ve been binge watching. Trying to switch over to all Zoya. Thanks in advance
Colleen and Leif!
How long do your manicure last. I am disappointed with my naked Manicure Gelie-Cure System
Boring collection!! SORRY 😕
And if Jess reads comments, I have to say the white background is SO much better.

Awesome swatching 💖
I really like Emerson :D
This is less calm and more boring... snoozefest! And what's with THREE peaches that are nearly the same??
Meh I only like the purple
