Zoya Jinx, polish swatch
Zoya Jinx is a lovely medium chestnut brown.
I've had it for quite a while, but the paper swatch didn't do it any justice.
On the nail it has a fire that is completely missing in the bottle. It makes me wonder how many other wonderful colors I've written off due to a poor bottle show.
This mani is approximately four days old and starting to show slight tip wear, no chipping or breakage.
My current regime is to use:
1 base coat
2 lacquer coats
1 top coat
1 quick dry
This mani has Zoya base and top coats, and the quick dry is Nubar's Diamont. Diamont is an amazing quick dry top, but it does not have the longevity of CND's Air Dry. It also doesn't play well with others. However, when time is of the essence, Diamont is the answer, dry to touch in a short period of time (a minute, maybe) and dry to normal/moderately tough use within 10 minutes.
I don't believe I've had the slightest oops after using Diamont. However, I don't get seven days of wear from a Diamont top mani.
