Zoya NEEKA


Nails I Love

ZOYA – Neeka

Hi Goddesses



Poor Neeka.  Poor gorgeous, forlorn, lovelorn Neeka.  She’s quite tragic, this little goddess, and our relationship started with a tragedy of EPIC proportions.  I bought the Smoke & Mirrors sets back in August, and Neeka was the one that I wanted the most.  And what do you know, when they all arrived, which was the only one who got decapitated in shipping??  Yup, poor Neeka.




Luckily, I had bought them from one of my favourite ebay sellers, and when I told Cindy that Neeka had not only lost her head but spilt her lovely Neeka blood ev-ery-where, Cindy (after she stopped laughing) sent me another.




By the time she finally arrived in her one piece, I had swatched most of the Smoke and Mirrors Collections and found them a little lacking (too much smoke, not enough colour) and so poor Neeka has been sitting in the untried box ever since.




Until today.  Hurrah!  Today is Neeka’s first day out of Untrieds Jail, and she is LOVING it.  So much so, that she’s revealed she has many sides to her character – she is poor, forlorn washed out purple Neeka; she is in-the-shade dark and mysterious Neeka (WAY darker than I ever imagined she could be); she is peekaboo Puck, dancing bright in the light; and she is captivatingly shy, never revealing too much of herself, and ALWAYS making you want to come back for more.




Neeka’s soul is in the dusty purple hall.  She’s a beautiful shy grey purple with flecks of gold.  Indoors she looks very dark and dappled, very smokily indigo, but get her in the light and the flecks in her sing and soar like angels’ heartbeats.





She’s very grurple, very washed out, very worn looking, but that’s what gives her her charm.  She may occasionally lose her head lol, but you’ll always love having her on your nails.





Enjoy J
