NOTD/Nails: Zoya - Jem

I've been MIA for a while due to being really sick. I mean really sick. So I haven't worn makeup or painted my nails on over a week. I'm starting to feel better so I painted my nails yesterday and should get back to regular makeup posts soon!

This is such a gorgeous colour!  It mostly looks like a deep sparkly plum to me, but it changes depending on the angle and lighting. Love this!

I achieved this look with:
1 coat of Avon's NAIL EXPERTS Smooth Beginnings Base Coat 
2 coats of Zoya - Jem
1 coat of Avon's NAIL EXPERTS UV Gloss Guard Top Coat

    Jem is one of my favorite Zoya polishes. Valerie is another shade you should try; it's very similar to Jem, but is a teensy bit darker and not as red.

      I have Valerie too but haven't tried it yet. They almost look the same sitting next to each other.

    I just wore this a couple weeks ago. It's an amazing colour. I love Zoya polishes in general. I've never had a dud.
