Zoya Danni

    Okay, so a spot of bad news... my computer cord recently started spitting fire and smoke so I think it's a good idea to maybe not use it anymore. I managed to do and schedule this post before my computer died, but with no power source and nothing good in the backlog, it's gonna be kind of dead round these parts until my replacement cord arrives. In the meantime, I've got Zoya Danni, from the Intimates Collection. 

Danni is a saturated lilac purple metallic base with silver and pink flecks of shimmer.

     Although I normally have issues with light purples, Danni is one that I'm really glad to own. I was initially concerned that it would be too frosty, but despite all the shimmer, it nicely manages to avoid that pitfall. I can't even really explain how it looks, but trust me....it's beautiful, and utterly unique to boot. I can't think of a single polish that looks like Danni. And it gets extra points for sharing a name with one of my closest friends. 
 I was also really impressed with Danni's formula. It was a bit thick, but definitely not to the point where application was tough. On the contrary, it actually applied really smoothly...I had to wait a bit between coats to avoid dragging, but dry time was good so it wasn't much of a nuisance. Also good was the pigmentation....in the pictures, I've got on two coats of polish and one of topcoat.
 
And that is all I've got for today! Have a nice weekend, and see you guys next week!

I really think you'll like it...it's a pretty one.
Although you should definitely wait for another promotion, especially because Zoya raised their prices. Danni is cute, but she's not $8 cute. >_>
Sorry about your computer. This color looks so beautiful on you! I love this color. I just need to get around to purchasing it!

lol, it's okay.
The new charger should be here by Tuesday, and provided that it doesn't blow up my computer, all will be as it was.
And thank you! I hope you like it if you get it!
Well that sucks about your computer. :( This is the first time I've seen this color and thought, I need that polish. Up until now I haven't even been remotely interested in it. It looks really good on you.

lol, I just got it today, so you'll barely even have a chance to miss me. ^_^

And ikr! I was kind of surprised by how frosty it looked, but I agree...it still looks gewd.

Very pretty! I love the color and the finish.

And yikes--smoke is never good when it comes to cords. Glad you caught it before there was a bigger issue.

Thanks!

And that's definitely the bright spot in all of it, that it happened when I was there and awake. If I were sleeping (like I'm always doing) or not there, it could have been really bad.
Oh no, sorry to hear about your computer situation! Computer issues are the absolute worst.

I'm wearing Dannii today and feel a bit like a princess. In fact, I just ordered bf man to bring me a glass of wine. Granted, it was 2 Buck Chuck.

Ahh yeah they are. I felt like a zombie the whole weekend...like a ship with no anchor. Scary. :(

And I don't know what's funnier, that you ordered him to get you wine or the kind of wine that it was. Ahaha!
Oh, my brother's PC is starting to spit fire too!! I initially thought it was a vampire because of the spark(le). LOL

I love the nail color!!! :)
