Zoya's Fall 2009 Nail Collections - Truth & Dare

Zoya Nail Polish is the brainchild of Zoya Reyzis who, as a pregnant aesthetician and salon owner in 1984, realized the need for a healthier and more durable solution. Today, Zoya Nail Polish is available at the finest salons and spa’s worldwide and frequently receives top ratings in fashion, health, and pregnancy magazines world wide. Zoya Nail Polishes (Lacquers) are free of toxic Toluene, Formaldehyde and DBP and are among the longest wearing natural nail polishes available.

Zoya has two new collections for Fall 2009, Truth and Dare. The Truth Collection consists of the following shades:

Penny - copper gold metallic

Kalmia - rose copper metallic

Salma - scarlet red metallic

Isla - venetian red metallic

Anaka - fuchsia metallic glimmer

Drew - mauve rose metallic

I love them all!

The Dare Collection is richer and darker and much more in step with this year's fall fashions, especially Demi and Pinta. It's also kind of vampy don't you think? My favorites are Vanessa, you can beat a great red nail polish with a stick and this year I'm going out of my comfort zone and am going to try Iziba, the deep blue.


Vanessa - blue red cream

Ciara - burgundy plum cream

Demi - purple mauve cream

Pinta - inky violet cream

Envy - gleaming Jade green

Ibiza - gleaming Sapphire blue


Don't you love how the polishes are named after famous actresses? So cute!

Chanel Symphonie Blanche de Chanel

Chanel is my one of most coveted makeup brands. When I think of Chanel, a chic,  sophisticated and classy woman impeccably dressed comes to mind. And Chanel's new Symphonie Blanche collection is the makeup she would be wearing.

The White Whisper eye shadow quad features a quartet of shades - silver pink, pearly white, light gold and dark silver for a luminious effect. This quad will take you from day to night in a flash! $56

Fleurs Celestes de Chanel is a gorgeous trio of face highlighters. White, pink and bronze powders provides a natural looking radiance to accentuate the gentle curves of the face and décolleté. The compact itself is a work of art with an arrangement of embossed flowers across a 'field' of snowy white. $65

Nails stand out with LE VERNIS Nail Colour, in new limited-edition Blanc Pétale, a crisp white. $23

The collection also includes Poudre Douce in Rosee, a soft pressed powder with light reflecting pigments, Rouge Hydrabase lipstick in Simply Pink, Le Crayon Kohl eye pencil in new shade Blanc and Intimitable mascara, a favorite of mine. See the entire collection at Chanel.com

Some day a classic Chanel bag will be mine!
