I spent most of this morning swatching and writing a post for an Irish dance fashion blog (link to come later), but I had to squeeze in some swatches of the new Zoya Fleck Effects!! I decided to swatch Maisie first. Maisie is a blue jelly base with gorgeous iridescent green/blue flakies. The flakies in this polish are practically glowing!!
For this look, I used two coats of
Zoya Cynthia as my base. I then used one thick-ish coat of Zoya Maisie. Yes, this is just one coat of Maisie!! Unlike other flakie polishes, where you have to layer on two or three coats for maximum flakie density, Maisie packs a punch in just one coat.
Maisie is also really shiny and dries to a smooth finish. I didn't use top coat in any of these pictures. Maisie was really easy to apply, and it wasn't difficult to get the flakies to look evenly spaced. Overall, I'd say Maisie is the best flakie I have used. I love Nubar 2010, but it takes more coats than Maisie to be as flakie-filled as I like. I also really love how Maisie's flakes look so vibrant and almost neon green. Amazing!!!If you are a flakie lover, you need Maisie. In fact, I'm making Maisie the first Never Enough Nails Necessity of 2012!
I can't wait to try the other two Fleck Effect polishes!! I will probably get those posted on Saturday or Sunday I hope, so definitely stay tuned!
Zoya Maisie is available starting January 13th on
zoya.com, although I think you can pre-order them starting January 10th.
This polish was sent to me for review by a PR agent for Zoya. For more information, please see my Disclosure Policy.
