Gorgeous color but it is not one of the best formulas of Zoya(Zoya fan here).I found it a little thick and streaky.the brush streaks disappear after it dries down though.I had minor chip wear within the end of 2. day.it is not bad but not great either,considering that many Zoya polishes,especially cremes last longer on me.I don't think it is sheer but the formula makes the application tricky.I used two coats,the 2. one is applied after the first totally dried down and had full coverage and no VNL on my long nails.the finish is nice.it is a decent glossy creme.I love that it is a dark,almost blackened green but still it looks definetely green and you don't need a harsh light or something like that to show the beauty of the color.I will buy it again since it is a perfect color after all.Similar to Nars Zulu,which required 4-5 coats.what a nightmare! Envy is a good choice from the pile of dark green cremes.

Streaky and sheer, needs multiple coats to become opaque and takes forever to dry. And the color is ugly, IMO - a near-black dark olive green. Ick.
The finish is nice - very shiny and hard - once it dries but that's about all I like about it.

While most of the reviewers here have commented on how 'thick' or 'gloopy' this polish's consistency is, this is much more like what I am used to and like, compared to the very thin formula Zoya polishes usually have. I got opaque coverage in two coats. The color itself is very dark, nearly black, but still obviously green.

I said I would repurchase again because I like the color, but may not, since I'm not so fond of Zoya, and its hard to get where I am anyway.

For starters, in general, I would probably not find a reason to repurchase any nail polish because I've never run out of a single color in my entire life--literally.
This polish is a dark deep forest-y almost black green. It, like many of it's similar colors (OPI HTAT and OPI SSITP) are grainy upon application instead of creamy or jelly-like. The formula is thick and the brush is kind of wonky.
It isn't the worst polish I've worked with before.
The color pay off is nice, two coats and completely opaque. I just wish it were creamier. I'm also very picky and specific with my nail polishes.

As far as green goes this is one of the best greens that i have ever seen in a polish. I found that the formula is thick but it gives good coverage depending on how it applies. I enjoyed the matte look and it is much different than any other polish out there. Absolutely no shine, very matte, but that's what makes it so dimensional and so appealing. If you enjoy greens then this is worth a try. Will repurchase!!

After a kind of thick, gloppy application, I was uncertain of the results I would get with this, but it dried quick and smooth, looked great (also used Orly Sealon Topcoat for added shine). Wore very well. Unfortunately, left a horrific yellow stain behind when I took it off even though I had used a layer of basecoat (Sally Hansen Double Duty). Will NOT use again.

This is a really dark green creme polish. Beautiful and easy to apply. I only needed two coats. I wish it was just tad lighter. But I would probably buy this again since I really like the shade.

Five stars for the color, a blackened, deep forest green with a subtle shimmer that is stunning in sunlight, but the formula was the worst, managing to be both streaky and entirely too thick and goopy. It was opaque enough after two coats, but was a real chore to apply and I still didn't get even coats or coverage. I'll try to salvage it with a drop or two of polish thinner, but I won't repurchase this.
