Zoya: Stacy and Bronze Crackle

This is Zoya's Stacy.  Two coats later I had a very rich merlot red on my paws.  I'm not the biggest fan on the Zoya brushes... long and skinny, but I make it work for colors as awesome as this :) I got this polish from Amber C. over at Rainbows and Sparkles for her 50 follower giveaway.  Great color to win because I would never really lean towards getting a red. I still think I don't look great in them, but of course if I like a color, I will wear it and wear it with confidence! That's the fun of nail polish!





In continuing with my journey of trying out the new La rosa crackles I got, I picked up the bronze one for Stacy.  This crackle color is also very awesome.

It cracked well and also is one of the more shimmery ones. I included a close up of the bottle taken in my lightbox for you to see. I guess it looks a bit more gold in the pictures but I would say it's a cross between gold and bronze because it has that burnt orange that bronze has.

What do you guys think of this crackle? I like it over a rich creme color and the fact that it has shimmer/glitter and applies like a normal lacquer would, is all a huge plus. 




Do you think China Glaze and OPI get upset when other companies (and each other) come out with the polishes that have the same idea? As a consumer, I think having a choice is nice because these were less expensive and had more colors and easily available to me. Win all around.

  2. I love the bronze crackle. I will definitely have to pick up this one -- I'm a sucker for anything bronze. How opaque is the Stacy? It almost looks like a bit of a jelly unless it's a trick of the camera.

  3. CC- Stacy is pretty opaque, 2 coats and you're good to go and it finishes like a jelly but applies like a creme.
    NC- Ya the bronze sparkly crackle is a look I have to get used to but was OK with it after I looked at it a while :D
    BN- Thanks!!

  4. I like the crackle over this red, the shimmer in it is really pretty. Do you think it would look nice over a navy blue? Or would a more gold-toned crackle be better?

  5. I think it would look great over a navy! I'll go through my stash and see what I have that comes close to navy and try it out :)
