Zoya Ivanka ($8.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.)

I want to start off with saying…Zoya is one of my most favorite nail polish brands ever! Most of Zoya’s colors (of those that I own) tend to achieve bottle color fairly easily, have great pigmentation, and are unlike colors I’ve seen. Their bottle shape hold perfectly into my hand, the handles are easy to hold, they wear nicely, and Zoya always has amazing promotions! Well, enough of Zoya itself…onto the review!

Ivanka is described as “mermaid green sparkling metallic”, which is accurate…but doesn’t do it justice! Ivanka is an emerald green, which has A LOT of depth—looking at it from different angles, you’ll witness Ivanka fluctuate between a light and dark hues, with amazing silver/gold glass flecks suspended in the base. 

After applying a thin coat of Ivanka, I was expecting it to be a bit of a disappointment—only because it was so darn sheer! But a second coat…IT WAS MAGICAL. It completely became opaque with a second coat. That’s right! To achieve bottle color, it only takes two coats with AMAZING drying time. It even dries super glossy! What a plus!

After looking at Ivanka, I was absolutely dreading the removal and clean-up of my nails, but YOU GUISE…really…buy this. Because it removed in a jiffy! No staining, and no leftover glitter. 

If you haven’t tried Zoya, PLEASE DO NOW! I highly recommend polishes/colors from their Sparkle, Smokes and Mirrors, and Gems and Jewels collection! They have great promotions, and if you aren’t sure about a color, Zoya offers Color Spoons. Color Spoons are only $0.50, and accurately represent the color you’re iffy about…plus free shipping! 

IN A NUTSHELL:

Color: Metallic emerald green suspended with silver/gold glass flecks
# of Coats Required: Two
Drying Time (1-5): One
Finish: Glossy
Ease of Removal (1-5): One
