Zoya Storm Nail Lacquer Review, Photos, Swatches Site News Contains: Affiliate Links, Sample 11/05/12November 05, 2012 Zoya Storm Nail LacquerA Galaxy of ColorZoya Storm Nail Lacquer ($8.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a “full coverage, holiday black with a high concentration of micro-fine diamond holographic glitter.” It’s a rich, inky black cream with holographic sparkle. The shimmer and sparkle look multi-sized to me, and almost like flecks for some of the colors. While it seems similar to Illamasqua Creator, this shade doesn’t have any of the holographic shimmer, so it is just silver sparkle and shimmer–the effect is similar but if you really want the holographic aspect, you won’t find it there. The same is true with NARS Night Breed. Cult Nails I Got Distracted is closer, but it has large green-teal flecks as well.This shade was fully opaque after two coats, and it applied beautifully! Â The consistency wasn’t too thick or too thin, so I didn’t experience any bubbling or pooling of the polish along the edges of my nails. Â There’s plenty of shimmer, and it disperses and spreads evenly. Â I typically get a week of wear with Zoya’s polish with no chipping and just minor tip wear.Zoya Storm Nail Lacquer Review, Photos, Swatches A10Product10Pigmentation10Texture9Longevity5Application98%Total Recommended We hope you'll consider supporting Temptalia by shopping through our links below.

stephanieahh im in love with storm! ive been planning on getting it but i recently picked up the nails inc after party collection from sephora, and im wondering if disco lane is similar enough to storm that i dont need to have both. have you seen that one? if so, thoughts? thanks!

SabrielI have to decide if this is going to be too similar to China Glaze “Smoke and Ashes.”I’m not saying they’re dupes (Smoke and Ashes is almost green) but they might fill the same niche in my collection.Storm sure is pretty, though…
freshpinklipsI’m glad I skipped on the mac glamourdaze nail lacquer in “everything that glitters” which looks similar to this. I will pick this one up instead!
Tabithamy thought exactly! (although I never really planned on getting ETG, even though I liked the color. I love a lot of MAC products but the nail polishes will never be worth the price to me, the quality is just way too inconsistent)
Chris25I love it when basic blacks are jazzed up with glitter or something that keeps it from being regular black. Awesome job, Zoya!
NicholeI almost passed on Storm because of it’s similarity to Creator, but I’m glad I got it. I’m wearing Zoya’s Aurora from that same collection. Storm is up next.
CocoIt’s gorgeous!! But I’m already getting Illamasqua’s Creator today so I don’t think I need this. I’m so excited to finally try Illamasqua’s nail polish formula!
Miss JZoya is carried inside Ulta, correct? I never know where to get Zoya in my area. We just got an Ulta, though, so I might have to go check it out. I’m loving this collection of polishes.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »I think so! I’ve never been to Ulta!
SabrielYep, I can confirm that Ulta carries Zoya.But I have to warn you: they are slow at putting out new releases, at least in Minnesota (where I live). They only just put out the fall collection! I don’t expect to see the winter collection until December maybe… they’re just really slow.I say that, but I still love the store. They also have NYX. 🙂
Miss JThanks, Sabriel! I’m not too far off from Minnesota, so I’m sure ours will be slow to get new releases, too. Gotta love the Midwest! I definitely plan on making a trip soon to check out our selection.Thanks again for the info! 🙂
FaithThe Maple Grove Ulta is better and has had it out for a while. But that literally seems to be the only one in all of MN that gets collections out in time.
KimYou can also order from their site. http://www.zoya.com That’s where I got mine plus Aurora and Blaze. So pretty!
Miss JWhich is your fav, Kim? I am kind of loving all the shades; I’m tempted to just get the sampler, wrap it in Christmas paper, and say Merry Christmas to me! LOL.
Christine Light-Medium, Neutral, slight yellow undertones. Normal-to-Dry skin. »Hi Shauna,I’m confused – it was great to apply, so it received full points: 5 out of 5 possible points.
Chris25Maybe she thought it was 5/10? All the other categories are x/10. If you’re speed reading, it’s easy to think all the categories are x/10.
BarbaraChristine, I was hoping you would review this. Now that I’ve seen your swatches and that you gave it an A I want it even more!!!
Christine85Oh I need this color! I’ve been looking for a nail polish to match the color of my car (Black with multi color flecks) this is it! And I won’t use this at touch up paint lol
Christinaall the swatches I’ve seen of this lately have me drooling. a black glitter isn’t the most unique idea, but this is SO different from every thing else, its so hard to describe (only a real nailpolish’er would get it, right?)
Becca @ The Beauty SampleI LOVE this! I’ve been really into the rich blacks with micro-glitters lately. It’s weird–I really like Illamasqua’s but I thought it was just a silver glitter while with this one, I can actually see the multi-colored shine!
MaryThis color is so stunning! It actually looks like the night sky. Definitely going on my wish list.
JillZoya is quickly becoming my new favorite! Unfortunately, I ran out to find this after your review, but no luck! Hurry up Ulta!
AidaI bought this after I’ve seen your swatches and for the first time in a long time I’ve been wearing a nail polish for more than a couple of days :). It’s stunning! Like wearing a galaxy on my nails. I don’t tend to have much luck with Zoya polishes (I seem to be in minority about it, but I never like the formula and it always seem to take forever to dry; I get smudges even a couple of hours after application, when I think I’m safe to start using my hands again), but this one is a winner for me. I already plan on getting at least one back-up because she’ll be a staple for me from now on :). I love it so much!
