Zoya - Easy Neons

*AD - Gifted*
Hello lovelies! Today I have the new Zoya Easy Neons to share with you. Zoya haven't released neons in a good few years, so I was really excited to hear that they were giving them another shot. The Easy Neons are advertised as neons that dry matte, do not require a white base, and are opaque in two coats. They also come with the Z-wide brush as standard for an easier application. Read on to find out if they live up to the claims, and to see my full swatches!

Before jumping into the swatches, I'll address the formula here. These are definitely more on the crelly/jelly side of things, so aren't two coaters as claimed - I found myself needing three coats. That being said, they are smooth and easy to apply, cover evenly, and build up nicely. I do find the Z-wide brushes much easier to use. With a natural matte finish, the polishes also dried down quickly, so it didn't take long at all to do three coats.

I've shown each polish both in it's natural matte finish and with glossy topcoat. Let's get stuck in!

'Oakley' is described as a 'fiery bright orange neon'. Below is three coats without topcoat.

'Zelda' is described as a 'beaming pink-coral neon'. This leans more towards the coral side on my nails, but I have seen it lean much pinker on others depending on skintone. Below is three coats without topcoat.

'Janie' is described as a 'hot fuschia pink neon'. This is definitely the truer pink for my skintone. Below is three coats without topcoat.

'Banks' is described as a 'vivid violet neon'. I'm not sure there's such thing as a true purple neon polish, so I'm not surprised that this is darker than the rest of the collection. Below is three coats without topcoat.

What do you think? I know this collection hasn't been everyones cup of tea as they aren't 2 coaters as stated, but I'm ok with that and I actually really like them! They're a massive improvement on the older Zoya neons that definitely do need a white base. My personal favourites are 'Oakley', 'Zelda', and 'Janie'. I also really liked 'Echo'. I can't wait to use all of them for some fun, bright manis - maybe even a watermarble.

The Easy Neons are available on the Zoya website here. They are not yet available on the Zoya UK website, but they should be soon!
