NOTD: Audrina by Zoya

Audrina was one of the color cutie mini polishes I got from Zoya last spring, and I'm just now getting around to wearing it.  I think the Pantone Radiant Orchid color of the year brought it back into my consciousness, as it looked to be pretty darn close in color, although Audrina leans a bit more fuschia.

 Zoya describes Audrina as
"a very bright funky mix of medium pink and purple with a milky cream finish", whereas Radiant Orchid has been described by color specialist Leatrice Eisemanan as an "enchanting harmony of fuchsia, purple and pink undertones". 
Radiant Orchid type shades are not normally ones I'm drawn to nor have much experience wearing, but Audrina does look great on my nails!  The formula was very easy to work with and this is two coats with Zoya's base and top coats.  I love how glossy it is, although unfortunately I did get some sheet creases in it :-(
I wish Zoya would come out with some more mini's, as they are actually my preferred way to accumulate polishes.  I can't envision making it through a complete bottle of polish in my lifetime!

      I'm not even sure what kind of bush/tree that flower was, but when I saw it, I made a bee line over :-)

    What a beautiful shade, too! Yes, it's in the Radiant Orchid family with a little hot pink put in for good measure. Zoya has the most awesome shades and finishes. Love 'em! ~Allison @neversaydiebeauty (for some reason, I won't recognize my google name)

      Yeah, if I had to pick a favorite nail polish brand, it would probably be Zoya :-)

    This reminds me of helena (I think?) from Julep!

      That's not one I have, although Julep polishes are taking over my shelf space :-)
