31 Day Challenge: Day 5: Blue!

My favorite color! Well, one of them anyway. So, I’ve been waiting FOREVER to get my Zoya polish from their Earth Day promotion. I was getting rather impatient, and was out running errands, which COINCIDENTALLY took me past Ulta. So strange. Lucky me, they had buy two, get one free on their polishes. While I knew I had Zoya Zuza on her way, wellll…I spotted Zoya Charla and had to have her too!!! I couldn’t help myself! Please tell me you all would have done the same thing! :)
So here she is:

Geez, another gem! That is four days in a row now! I promise tomorrow there are no gems in sight! But you understand WHY I had to have a gem for this mani:

They  match my ring! I wish I could capture the sparkli-ness of the ring. So pretty!
I used a dotting tool with Zoya Apple, a yellow nail art polish, and Zoya Kimber. Then a red gem in the middle. You can see staining from Pool Party on my index finger!!! And also, if you have this color or are considering buying Charla, she stains…so make sure you put on a good base coat.

    This mani is so cute! I have to add Charla to my wish list. How many coats did you use?

    I have zoya Charla but I haven't used it yet, thanks for mentioning that it stains, i'll be sure to basecoat before I use it now. And I love this!! The accent nail almost looks like tie dye.. the gem is a cute touch too! Funny that you promise tomorrow's mani won't have gems.. when mine just might... ;)
