Manicure Monday: Zoya in Yuna, Ignite Collection (Fall 2014)

I'm not too sure what is the nail trend for this fall, but I've been into grays. So when I saw this gray nail polish from Zoya, I had to get it.
This is Zoya in Yuna from their Ignite Collection, Fall 2014. Since I did a thorough review of Zoya polish in Aurora, I will base this on that.
Here's a closer look at the polish. The website describes it "as a full-coverage warm grey with copper and gold liquid metal." It's darker in person.
Here's a closer look at the brush. Compared to my favorite OPI brush, it is in-between thin to medium width.
I applied Orly Calcium Shield Basecoat, 2 coats of Zoya in Yuna, and then topped it off with Butter London Hardwear P.D. Quick Topcoat.

Now for my overall opinion... First of all, the consistency is on the medium. It's not too thick that it's lumpy and not too thin that it's watery. It's a perfect consistency that you can paint slow and carefully. It also goes on smoothly, and there's no streaking and bubbles. Secondly, I didn't find this polish hard to use. I tend to not like thin brushes, but I didn't have an issue with this. I also like that the liquid metal is evenly distributed in the bottle. With that said, it wasn't hard to remove. Third, I was hoping the color on my nails was the color from the bottle. Unfortunately, it's darker on the nails than the bottle but I still like it. Lastly, the polish lasted 5 days before I noticed chipping on the tips.

Would repurchase: Yes.
