In the June 2012 issue of Allure Magazine, beauty experts give some pointers on how to keep your pedi looking perfectly brilliant throughout a beach vacation.The key to long-lasting vibrant and glossy color is making sure to use a top coat with UV blocking agents such asZoya Armor Top Coat...
"Most topcoats have unpronounceable ingredients, like benzophenone - 1 and octocrylene, that absorb UV light and prevent it from breaking down the color. But the effectiveness wanes over time."
Re-apply, re-apply, re-apply! Not only will re-applying your top coat every other day prevent sun rays from dulling the nail color, the ultra-strong and flexible formula of Zoya Armor provides a chip-free coating that will also defend nail color against wear and tear of sand and salt water.
You're in luck - the secret to long-lasting color is also available in a convenient, travel size Mini Color Lock System manicure kit that is the perfect size to take with on any beach getaway. Find itHERE!

Editorial manicurist Elisa Ferri (shown center) worked directly with Marc Jacobs and applied a single coat of color based on the models skin tone, using Zoya Cho or Farah, plus a coat of ultra glossy Armor top coat to keep the nail looks flowing and to elongate hands per his request.
Set to the music of the musical "Oliver!" The show itself was a dramatic, big hatted (all by milliner Stephen Jones) spectacular that was as full of vintage Victorian inspired whimsy as it was colorful fashion. Big shoe buckle lovers will be in heaven next fall!

Zoya Color Lock System
Everything you need to keep your nail polish on and beautiful! 5 easy steps.
How to use: Thoroughly saturate a cotton ball or pad with Zoya Remove+, firmly press pad to nail for a few seconds and wipe until existing polish is completely removed and nail bed is clean. Remove surface oils from clean nails and prepare nails for new color by wiping each nail with Zoya Remove+ (not shown).
How to use: This is an optional basecoat - If your nails are uneven it will fill the nail surface with a dense fiber-like formula that grips to the nail creating a smooth surface. Apply one coat to clean, prepped nails.
How to use: Apply one coat over Zoya Nail Polish. This protects nails from yellowing UV rays and keeps your nail color strong. Re-apply every two days for extended color wear.
How to use: Apply one drop to base of each nail, tilt hand and allow product to spread naturally. Polish will dry in just five minutes. This drys polish faster and increases color vibrancy. To extend your color up to two weeks, apply over Zoya Armor Topcoat every two days.
That's it - for beautiful, long-lasting nail color use the Zoya Color Lock System every time you polish!
Another glowing review for Zoya Nail Polish! Blogger Jessica Kim of meandmykors.blogspot.com is in love with Zoya! She called it "a beauty lover's dream." We couldn't agree more!!! She writes:
"Zoya Kelly enchanted all during New York Fashion Week. A dark and smoky gray with blue and dusky purple undertones, it complements all skin tones. Zoya Shawn however, is an intense mossy, yellow-toned green with olive undertones and works perfectly with this season's military trend."
"As I was brushing the gorgeous color on my nails, all I could think was "wow, wow, wow." Two coats were all I needed for opaque, high shine color. I'm also ecstatic over how quickly the polish dried and I was able to add the Zoya Armour Top Coat."
Thank you Jessica!!! You can read the rest of her wonderful review here. Have you tired our Wicked and Wonderful Collections? Find your Zoya love at Zoya.com !!

" So after all this, my nails survived an amazing 11 days before I had to do any reapplication. I was astounded considering other nail polishes in the past only last maybe 3-4 days at most, with chipping."
She is also in love with our polishes, "I have been wearing the color Alegra from the Sparkle Collection religiously and have received lots of compliments. The ease of application and consistency of the colors and texture make it a new fav. Ladies, get your green feet together with Zoya."

Fashion Designer: Thuy Show Date: Tuesday, 2/16/10-3PM Location: Bryant Park-Salon Zoya Nail Polish- Official Nail Care Sponsor of the Thuy Fall 2010 Show.
Layers! Something must have been in the water at Fashion Week because almost everyone was using layers, including Thuy. Thuy, however, used layers with pockets and folds creating a beautiful hip fullness.
Thuy also used nudes using Zoya Tasha as a the base color with a layer of Zoya Erin over the top for a bit of glamour.Manicurist Sunshine Outing prepped each nail with Zoya Remove+ and Anchor basecoat finishing with a topcoat of Armor.
Thuy brought the crowd, and in his crowd were some BIG names, Kim Kardashian, Housewives: Kelly Bensimon, , Danielle Staub, Jill Zarin, Alix McCord, Simon Van Kempen, Tabatha Coffey, Olivia Palermo, Kimberly Guilfoyle, Eve Salvail, Susie Essman, Mia Moretti, and Markus Klinko
Avatar may have hit the theaters two months ago, but that hasn't stopped the beauty world from continuing to drool over it. Featured in an article on Elle Italy's website are the five blue shades Zoya Nail Polish chose to represent the James Cameron's Best Drama and Best Director Golden Globe winner. The Article mentions all five Avatar inspired shades: Yummy, Ibiza, Indigo, Tart, and Talluah. To see the original Zoya-Avatar post click here.
Translation from Google Translate: Live from Avatar, style Na'vi this trend even beyond the confines of the planet Pandora. While the film by James Cameron, with its nine nominations, is preparing to buy up to Oscar, in its various shades blue color becomes the protagonist of the manicure of spring. Zoya brand of worship for the Nail-addict, suggests as much as 5 shades allegedly taken from the colossal, ranging from the "greedy" Yummy intense blue Indigo (midnight blue accents glitter). "Stage" forced variation in Ibiza (pure sapphire, which recalls the depths of the sea), not forgetting the metal-Tart and iridescent opalescent Tallulah. Bonus extra: Zoya by the glazes are 100% toxic free, so that they can also be used in pregnancy and are world champions of duration (2 weeks to test chips, proven by the premium Beauty All Star). The most recent record? The first place for best basecoat and topcoat best 2009-2010. Zoya glazes can be found in beauty parlors, spas, and some in the Center Nail Saloons (14 euros).
Combining art and fashion in a gallery presentation, Susan Cianciolo's Fall 2010 collection was more of a performance piece than the usual standing model presentation. The show Underneath the, Sea Inside a Mountain used the artistry of clothes, makeup and nail design to transport viewers to a place where they could frolic through the fields with Julie Andrews or if they so pleased, swim the seas with Ariel. Flower Children and Mermaids in an explosion of hand crafted colors and patterns all under the flashes of an artfully placed group of Japanese paparazzi. A performance indeed!
A Parson's classmate of Mark Badgley and James Mischka, Cianciolo is no lesser a designer just a more avant garde talent. Cianciolo's custom made garments can be ordered via her website, susancioniolo.com
Happy to have over 300 fashion colors to choose from to create her part of the vision, Manicurist Jackie Salsbery prepped each nail with Zoya Remove+ and Zoya Anchor basecoat and then polished the nails in a rainbow of colors including Zoya Veruschka, Zoya Gia, Zoya Ibiza, and Zoya OC Cooler and finished each look with Zoya Armor topcoat.
Fashion Designer: JSong Date: Wednesday, 2/10/2010 Location: 499 Seventh Avenue Zoya Nail Polish- Official Nail Care Sponsor of the JSong Fall 2010 Show.
Romantic Fantasy is the ideal way to describe JSong’s collection. The motto for their collection was In Nature’s Magical Garden and their clothes definitely represented that. They stuck with the main theme of fashion week this season, layers, but they put their own spin on things. They had layered eyelets the shape of leaves, crochet shawls, and sheer tops with patterns similar to peacock feathers.
Manicurist Jackie Saulsbery prepped each nail with Zoya Remove+ and a basecoat of Anchor. She used Zoya Suzanne, Zoya Tasha, Zoya Jessika, Zoya Bailey and finished with a topcoat of Armor.
Diesel Black and Gold’s Fall 2010 show screamed confidence. They stuck with the distressed-faded jeans, but this time they added a more gothic/ western vibe to their looks. This season had a plethora of black denim to choose from and for the more adventurous type leather. All over the board there was black in denim and leather form, flannels, light blue denim pieces, and clean-tailored suits sprinkled in throughout the collection.
Manicurist Amber Stores sprayed the models' hands with Zoya Germinator prior to each manicure. She then prepped each nail with Zoya Anchor basecoat as well as with Zoya Get Even. She then polished each nail with a base of Zoya Nail Polish in Tasha and then a top layer of Zoya Nail Polish in Erin creating a gorgeous nude nail. After polishing she finished with Zoya Anchor topcoat and Zoya Renew. Lastly, for a nice, sweet touch Zoya Lemon Dream lotion was used on all hands.
Similar to the collection the location was in a grungy location, a warehouse, but that did not stop people from coming to witness Diesel Black and Gold’s Fall 2010 Show. A huge crowd showed up including, Carine Rotifeld (French Vogue), Leigh Lezark, Actress Amber Heard, Mickey Boardmen and Kim Haistreiter (Paper), Mark Hunter (thecobrasnake), and Cory Kennedy.
