Zoya describes Neeka (Mirrors Collection) as follows:
“A greyed amethyst with subtle red duochrome shimmer and bright gold glitter accents. A fascinating, unique shade that manages to be glittery but not too flashy”.
I’m not sure if I see red duochrome shimmer. It’s more like hardly visible pink micro shimmer to me. The golden accents on the other hand are very visible and stunning! The formula is a dream and so dense that it’s almost a one coater 🙂
I used two coats of Neeka followed by one coat of Seche Vite. I used stamping plates BM02 and BM303 and China Glaze’s Robotika for the lips design. I’m not quite sure is I like the outcome. You?
I love how Neeka looks…just the perfect color for spring, but also all year around…and well def my cup of tea (ok you know that already hahaha).
Sharing some things I already knew hun? 😉 LOL
It’s lovely!
I know I had Neeka at one point but I probably got rid of it. It’s very pretty!
Love the lips! 🙂
Thanks 😀
Love!!
Such a gorgeous and kissable mani! I love Neeka it’s such a beautifull color.
Thanks so much 🙂

That is just too sweet! Thank you so much! I’ll look into it asap! 🙂
Yay! You’ve been stamping!! 🙂 lovely mani hunni
Ahw thanks hun. I have to admit… it was sitting a day or two (maybe three) in my drafts folder. I was not sure of posting it. What a sissy ha?! :p I’m such a chicken when it comes to post new to me things 🙂
Well you definitely didn’t need to worry, it looks great 😀
Ive got this colour too, i love it 🙂
Bet you do! It’s lovable 🙂
Agree – no duochrome in this at all and I hate when a description is that far wrong on an important detail. What I like most about this one is the dusty part with the shimmer in it.
Thanks 🙂
I keep meaning to get Neeka, but I end up with other purple Zoya colors. Next time maybe. I do love this color. I like it. I think their color descriptions are made up by the lab guys who create the colors know what they put in it. Not the customers who see it, and would describe it. 🙂
Think you’re right on that. And you will not regret picking this up. It’s lovely 🙂
Neeka is very unique!
I agree that it’s glittery but not flashy. But what’s up with the non-existent red duochrome? lol
My thoughts exactly… I searched for it in different lightning but the only thing I found were the gorgeous gold particals and a very very small amount of pink ones 😉 lol
It’s gorgeous! Neeka and Robotika are beautiful together!
Thanks so much 🙂
