Zoya nail polish comes in so many amazing shades and is easy to apply evenly and flawlessly. The first few times I used this nail polish, I noticed it was CHIPPING AND PEALING off the next day even after I had used a nice, expensive top coat. I went to the retailer where i purchased the polish and asked the sales person if they noticed how the polish peals off easily. She told me that she did and had the SOLUTION. You need to use ZOYA'S BASECOAT when you use their polish. After I bought their basecoat and used it with their polish, the color looked FABULOUS FOR DAYS! November 30, 2007, 7:51 pm

I am a licenced manicurist working as an independent contractor and have been working at high end spas in the Cape Cod MA area. As time goes by I've had many "new favorite nail polishes". During a vacation to florida, I visited the Elizabeth Arden Red Door Spa in Weston. My mani and pedi where enjoyed and they only had "ZOYA" polishes to choose from. I have never used this brand before. But to my amazement this brand has real staying power. Doesnt chip for days! My favorite color is "Zsa Zsa" (a true red). I highly recomend this product.

As a self proclaimed polish fanatic, I've tested a lot of brands. Zoya ranks high on my list of favorites. Their formula is free of toluene, formaldehyde and DBP (the Big 3) yet it still flows smoothly on the nail. For the most part the pigmentation is high though some shades require three coats. I find that using Zoya's base and top coats help the polish last longer and stay shiny. October 16, 2007, 11:10 am

The Company has been the best, by far, in a more natural line of nail polish that I have come across. I've seen Zoya sold in stores from Whole Foods to ULTA and Sally's Beauty Supply. I would definitely recommend this line to Pregnant women and those that would like less chemicals in their beauty products. Although, the lasting power is less then traditional professional-quality nail polish, the color selection is outstanding and it comes in a close second. June 1, 2008, 8:16 pm

Zoya has some great color options and I like the fact that all their polishes are big 3 free but the staying power of the polishes leaves something to be desired. I find that I have tip wear after only one day of wearing this polish. I also have found that these polishes have a really strong smell that is irritating to me. Overall, I don't think these polishes are worth their price. May 28, 2008, 11:47 am

Zoya's Akyra (from Utopia | Winter 2007/08) is a gorgeous muted teal color. I kind of wish for a brighter, bolder teal, but I think this one is excellent because it's very wearable. It also looks great with both cool and warm skintones from what I've found, which is a definite plus. It has great opacity, and you can get great color with two coats of polish! $6
Zoya's Irene (from Utopia | Winter 2007/08) is a gorgeous gold-yellow-geren. It reminds me a bit of a more green Old Gold pigment by MAC, only in nail polish form. I love how opaque the color is after just two coats! It has the loveliest gold shimmer, and I never thought I'd be willing to wear a green polish before I put on Irene. $6
Zoya's Juno (from Utopia | Winter 2007/08) is such a gorgeous royal purple-violet shade. It's truly a standout color in its brightness, but the tone of it is absolutely divine. I love the subtle shimmer that really sets off the violet hue. Like the other Utopia polishes, this one has great consistency and color payoff. Just two quick coats and you'll be set! $6
Zoya's Tama (from Utopia | Winter 2007/08) has to be my favorite out of the six new shades launched for their Utopia collection. It's such a beautiful magenta-purple color; bright and cheery, yet not blinding. I like the subtle shimmery and metallic-esque finish. I found it applied quite well and went on like a dream; even with one coat I found amazing color. $6
Zoya's Kamilah (from Utopia | Winter 2007/08) is the most gorgeous cherry red, and I can't wait to sport this when Christmas comes closer. Don't get me wrong, it's an excelelnt red for any time, but I'm especially excited to wear it to get into the holiday spirit. I love the shimmer, and it applies so smoothly! I'm not even a huge red-nail gal, but love this color. $6
Zoya's Austine (from Utopia | Winter 2007/08) is a very gorgeous gold with warm undertones of bronze with silver shimmer. It's a bit metallic in appearance, which is always fun (when you tire of gunmetal gray, as lovely as it is, go opposite with this color!) for the upcoming holiday season. I found it applied quite well, minimal streaks/brushstrokes when all was said and done. $6 November 12, 2007, 12:35 pm

I'm pregnant right now and using chemical free nail polish is very important to me. I ordered a bunch of Zoya nail polish from Zoya.com. I was a little worried that I might not like it, but I was wrong! The colors are nice, it doesn't smell bad when you are using it, and it lasts a long time, and I'm an admin assistant who types all day long! I highly recommend. A little expensive but worth it!

I love Zoya polish. It wears very well (consistently at least 5 days without the smallest chip - typically longer when used with base and top coat). It is a good value, big 3 free, and they have very unique colors. It can be hard to find in stores, but some Aveda salons and Trade Secret stores carry it. They have some fantastic purples. If you like purple, check out Yasmeen, Juno, Juicy, and Hope. April 18, 2008, 3:15 pm

Zoya makes great polish. There are a million shades to choose from, and the varnish itself wears very well. It goes on a bit thick (compared to say, OPI), but it doesn't streak and each coat dries quickly. I can go a good week without any chipping and only minor wear on my nails when wearing Zoya polish. (Tip: Zoya products are Big 3-free, so if you're using a different brand of base/top coat, make sure it is also Big 3-free or your manicure will be a total, utter, messy, watery disaster!)

Zoya makes some of the most unique polish colors I've seen--they have some gorgeous coppery red hues that I've never seen the likes of anywhere else. I love that they're missing a lot of the chemicals that you'll find in more mainstream brands, while they still have great lasting power on my toenails. And they're very reasonably priced to boot!
