Zoya Matte Velvets and second prize reveal

press sample

They're ba-ack and I have swatches, plus a look at another giveaway prize after the jump!

For anyone who didn't hear about these the first time around, Zoya's Matte Velvet polishes are soft, velvety matte-textured beauties that are meant to be worn without a base coat or top coat.  All six shades have a thin but pigmented formula that is opaque in two coats with no balding, streaking or running.  They are not long-wearing unless you use top coat, but fortunately, they're gorgeous with a shiny finish, so it just comes down to preference.  All swatches are two coats.

Dovima is a matte black.
