Try it on Tuesday

For today's post I am doing another Tuesday theme hosted by Jilltastic Nail Design "Try is on Tuesday" means each Tuesday we wear a polish that has been sitting around but we have not gotten the chance to wear yet. Fun? I believe so. Gives those lonely, dusty polishes some love! 


Today I went with Zoya Blyss topped with OPI Teenage Dream and an accent nail of Zoya Rory with OPI Teenage Dream! I could never say that Zoya Blyss was a dusty bottle that lacked love but she is slightly new to me. OPI Teenage Dream had sat for a month unloved and I can NOT believe I had not used it. I am in love with the sparkly holographic glitter filled goodness.  




I love it! What did you try for today's Try it on Tuesday?


Enjoy!

Del Sol Color Change




I would like to introduce you to a world of magic. I say magic because I have never seen a product do such an amazing thing. First off here is a little background behind Del Sol:




Headquartered in Sandy, Utah, Del Sol was established in 1994 and has since grown to more than 
100 stores worldwide in 23 countries. Today it’s the world’s leading brand of color-changing apparel
and accessories and the number-one promoted merchant on board Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Princess,
Disney, Celebrity, and Norwegian Cruise Lines.


NASA explored earlier concepts of color change for its space program back in the ‘70s and ‘80s,
but Del Sol further developed and expanded this technology, engineering its own proprietary
Spectrachrome® color-changing crystals that are found in all Del Sol products today. Del Sol’s
color-changing crystals are harvested from the sunniest, most colorful places on the planet
and then engineered for use on nearly 10,000 color-changing retail items.



Yes, the magic of color change. From clothing, hair accessories, hats, sandals, tote bags, sunglasses and nail polish!!!







Del Sol color changing polish in Ruby Slipper


Indoor color. A sheer base with small silver glitter. This is 3 coats!

Outdoor color. The sheer base turns red while some silver glitter stays silver, some also turns red!!!
 Retail $10

Available in many different shades. Site has a very easy "with sun" and "without sun" button to easy access the colors you desire. Follow HERE to the Del Sol website to get your hands on some.

INDOOR
Sunglasses Aruba Silver to Blue


Great style and comfort. They are soft and flexible!
retail $45



OUTDOOR


Sunglasses turn a beautiful blue! Lens are clear and doesn't tint your view a strange color like most sunglasses! 







Color Changing Sunglasses are available in many different styles and colors. Follow HERE to check them out. Del Sol Color Changing Sunglasses also comes with a very nice guarantee!


• LIFETIME REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE against Loss, Theft, or Damage. Even if you simply lose your Solize™ color-changing sunglasses, we'll still replace them for just the shipping/handling cost.
• Polarized PolarizedPro™ lenses to block out glare. 
• Durable frames are impact-resistant and lightweight. 
• Spectrachrome® technology makes frames change color when exposed to sunlight. Color change is also guaranteed to impress you, and to last for the life of the sunglasses.

Would you wear color changing nail polish and sunglasses? I want to here from you....


Enjoy!

Zoya Nail Polish and Treatment Fall 2012 Gloss Collection



ZOYA
Nail Polish and Treatments

2012 Gloss Collection


Zoya-NYFW-2012-Gloss-Sampler


The 3rd collection released this Fall from Zoya Nail Polish and Treatments is a set of 3 ultra glossy and build-able jelly gloss polishes. Zoya has pleased me yet again!

Zoya Frida 
A sheer teal blue jelly gloss. Very beautiful! So many different styles to wear with this one. This is Frida layered in 3 coats.

 Zoya Frida Jelly Sandwich
OH man, absolutely amazing. 1 coat Frida base, 1 coat glitter and 1 coat Frida on top.

Zoya Frida over White
White makes this beauty PoP! 1 coat white and 2 coats Frida on top.

Zoya Frida over Zoya Evvie
Gives Evvie and added glossy finish. Stunning! 1 coat Evvie with 1 coat Frida on top. 

Zoya Katherine
Sheer grape jam looking jelly gloss. A custom shade from Mr. Peter Som himself for his models in NYFW 2012. My bottle was not closed properly and had thickened during shipping. Made Katherine slightly difficult to work with but the formula was still very usable. Makes me hungry looking at it..nom nom! This is 3 coats.

 Zoya Katherine over White
1 coat white with 2 coats Katherine on top. Lovely!

Zoya Katherine Jelly Sandwich
This is one gorgeous look. 2 coats Katherine 1 coat glitter and 1 coat Katherine to top it off.

Zoya Paloma
Unbelievably BEAUTIFUL! I love all three colors but I must say that this one is my favorite of the glosses. 3 coats!

Zoya Paloma over White 
Almost gives Paloma a neon look. 1 coat white with 2 coats Paloma on top. This is a color for all season long!

Zoya Paloma Jelly Sandwich
2 coats Paloma, 1 coat glitter and 1 coat Paloma on top. Wow!
Zoya Paloma over Rekha
Call me crazy but time and time again I find myself typing these words. Zoya Rekha is my all time favorite red. 1 coat Rekha with 2 coat Paloma is....is...no words can describe the love I have for this combination. It's Awesome!!!!


Zoya NYFW inspired Fall Sheer Jelly Collection is truly a stunner . So many endless combinations, layering and creations can be made with these 3. Aside from my slightly thicker Katherine these Fall colors are breathtaking. Perfect application, consistency and sheer jelly yumminess (if that's a word!). I am extremely pleased with the Sheer Jelly Collection!!! Which is your favorite?

Each color can be purchased on the Zoya website HERE for $8 each. Colors are available now!

All polishes are BIG5FREE. Free of Formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, camphor and dibutyl phthalate. Zoya is vegan friendly and cruelty free nail color.

Zoya Monica
Monica is a dark mulberry purple cream. You may think you own a shade similar although after application Monica was very unique, dark and fit for Fall!


Zoya Natty
Natty is a smoky blue cream. Not as dark as I first thought but definitely a pleasant surprise. Very chic!



Zoya Noot
Noot is a unique charcoal green gray cream. Dark and sexy!



Zoya Toni
Toni is gorgeous. A dark maroon red cream. Difficult to picture due to her super shiny application!



Zoya Rekha
I have said it before and I'll say it again. Rekha is my favorite red. She is a blood red cream that was inspired by fashion designer Bibhu Mohapatra. Absolutly stunning in person. Very high shine!


Overall this collection is PERFECT. Perfect application, consistency and full coverage. Wish I could tell you a favorite but I love them all.  I am extremely pleased with the Designer Collection and am eager for Fall!
