As it's my birthday I thought I'd feature my favorite nail polish brand Revlon with one of their most amazing collections, the Color Zing Collection from 2000. When I started getting into polish the Zings went straight to the top of my wishlist, duochromes are my favorite polishes so it was no surprise that I fell head over heels for them. I wouldn't have known about them if it wasn't for Kaz and her posts about them on her Pretty Random blog (see her wonderful swatches here), if you love vintage polish you really should check out her blog, but be warned your wishlist will get bigger. :-)
There is two Zing collections, the black capped ones which are from the US, and the gold capped ones from the UK and EU. Below are the photos of the ones in my collection.
KiwiZing, VioletZing, TangyZing, CitrusZing, RoseZing |
PeachZing, CherryZing, VelvetZing, JungleZing, GoldZing |

This month has been great to me for finding Zings, I found JungleZing and Velvet Zing the other week from one seller, and then I found CherryZing as part of a joblot, and it arrived today so it was a perfect birthday present. I'm just now looking for MangoZing, KhakiZing, ReallyZing and NightZing, I'll be happpy when I get a full set. :-)
So that's it for today, I'd love to know if you've got any Revlon Zings in your collection, and what you think of them.
Cheerio for now,
Heather. :-)
I've never seen the Revlon Zings before, interesting! Happy birthday!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks! :-) The Zings are great, you should hunt them down if you like duochromes.

ReplyDeleteThose Zings looks really cool, I like duochromes too, and I think that this collection is one of the coolest duochromes ever :)
Thank you for the birthday wishes. :-) You're right it's a lovely collection, I wish I had them all.
