If you were to look into my cabinet of nail polish (yes, I have an entire cabinet dedicated to the stuff), you would see a glossy ensemble of bottles breaking down to roughly the following: 25% Olive & June, 10% OPI, 10% Essie, 5% other, and 50% Zoya.

Even though Zoya isn't as well-known or legendary as other fan-favorite lacquer brands like OPI and Essie, it's been an overwhelming staple in my at-home manicure game since I was in high school. (Fun fact: The brand has been around since 1986.) Fast-forward 10 years, and I'm still collecting its head-turning nail polish colors at an alarming rate—even by beauty-editor standards. 

Not only does Zoya have over 400 bold and beautiful hues to decorate your tips with, but it also offers different brush sizes for your bottles (so handy) and infinite collections with a mesmerizing range of glitter, shimmer, and textures. (Not to mention it makes one of the least-toxic formulations on the market thanks to its 10-free ingredient standards.) Since, as we mentioned, there is a lot—aka 400-plus bottles—of ground to cover when shopping the brand, we're sharing 30 of the most popular hues just below. Keep scrolling for all of Zoya's best-selling nail polish options!

This isn't your average metallic silver nail polish. The best-selling holographic shade will make your fingertips look even more fluttery thanks to the ever-so-subtle hints of gold. 

If ballet-slipper pink is your polish MO, you'll love this soft dusty mauve boasting a glossy cream finish. It's now unavailable at most online retailers, but you can still snap it up on Zoya's website. 

Think of this peppy shade as your favorite nude 2.0. Despite the shimmery finish, it's surprisingly full-coverage, which we love. You'll only need one or two coats. 

The Best Nail Polish Colors For Fall

For all of you classic-red-nail-polish lovers, this red-hot best-selling shade from Zoya is for you. Surging with Old Hollywood glamour, it's a "bright, clean, medium true-red in a glossy creme finish, " according to the brand's website.

Glitter fiends, beware. This high-wattage purple polish is not for the faint of heart. Described as a "medium sugarplum purple, " it boasts a potent concentration of micro-fine diamond holographic glitter. 

Ballet Slippers by Essie could be one of the most beloved nail polish colors of all time, and this dreamy shade from Zoya would be its elegant equivalent. You can wear it alone as a soft pink sheer, or you can add it to your French-manicure arsenal.

Zoya Dare Swatches & Review

A moodier take on a classic red, this is a full-coverage shade of crimson the brand describes as a "deep red beet" hue. 

I'm biased, but Isa is one of my favorites from Zoya. (I'm fanatical about anything purple.) A rich, royal blue–purple, it boasts the most benign metallic pearl finish for a little flash of something extra.

Everyone needs a classic hue this like this in their polish arsenal. It's a beloved natural color from the brand, full-coverage in payoff, and a pillowy blush cream. Think of it as the color you can wear over and over again and never get sick of.

New! Zoya Nail Polish Lacquer Dita

How eye-catching is this striking shade of fuchsia? The subtle twist of blue-violet duo-chrome shimmer intensifies the fiery shade that much further. 

Kelly meets anyone halfway who may be looking for a cool-toned middle ground between dramatic black and opaque white. Essentially, it's the perfect shade of gray.

Looking for something a hint lighter? This best-selling Zoya nail polish called Dove does its name justice—it's your quintessential dove gray with a luxe, glossy-cream finish.

Fittingly, Leia is an an-out-of-this-world beautiful addition to your polish collection. Galactically inspired, this nail polish color is a sheer, opalescent number brimming with pretty white with flecks of fuchsia, green, and gold. 

Rumor has it that this is one of the absolute best shades to invest in for fall. (Sorry, I couldn't resist.) According to the brand, it's a full-coverage mauve-taupe color that imparts a touch of subtle shimmer.

We're obsessed with a great, light-wash denim here at WWW, and this shade called Blu serves the same vibe up in the dreamiest way for nails. It's incredibly flattering, and it just so happens to be one of our favorite pastel hues for spring and summer or even icy winter.

Zoya Cashmeres Collection For Fall 2013

Another home run from Zoya's best-selling textured PixieDust collection, this mesmerizing nail polish color is a crystal-coated silver sprinkled with larger particles of mega hex iridescent glitter. (It's like you're wearing shooting stars on your nails.)

Take it from someone who owns upward of 200 nail polish bottles (hey, I'm not proud), Beth, simply put, is one of the most stunning nail polish colors on the market. I repaint my nails with this metallic champagne over and over any time of the year.

Is it coral? Red? Pink? Think of Sonja as the perfect fusion of every shade of flattering crimson. It also just screams summer.

We'd buy this best-selling Zoya nail color based on its enchanting name alone. Then again, the metallic medley of indigo, green, and purple is just as captivating.

Last but not least, another personal favorite, Sailor. It's the prettiest in-between shade if you're debating between gray, navy, or black, and the finish is wonderfully creamy and glossy.Zoya's Sensual Collection is officially here for Fall 2019! This collection features a range of 12 new contemporary neutrals to desirable darks. Sensual beautifully implements traditional autumn shades with a variety of finishes.

Best Red Nail Polishes: Bold Red Nail Lacquers

The reason I have been away a while is because I went on a 3 week trip to California, where I hiked around 100 miles. It was an amazing trip, but I am happy to be back doing my nails! That being said -- I had to cut my nails super super short for the hikes, so they are only juststarting to grow back. But anyway, onto the nails!

Fall is my favorite favoriteseason for nail polishes, because I love dusty fall tones so much! This collection is no exception. The Zoya Sensual Collection is a new 12-piece collection made up of contemporary neutrals to desirable darks that are perfect for fall.

JOSS | Joss is described as a soft colonial rose cream. The perfect neutral with a kiss of pink. This reminded me of a few other Zoya shades that I have recently gotten (which you'll see in my comparisons post later this week) but this is definitely unique to my collection!I got this opaque in 2 coats.

Zoya Nail Polish Zp925 Tawny

KINSLEY | Kinsley is described as a blush toned caramel cream, and just a smidgen darker than a mannequin shade would be on me. I think this is such a clean polish for the fall, and I loved it on my skin tone. I got this fully opaque in 2 coats.

FOSTER | Foster is described asa decadent hot chocolate cream with pink undertones. At first I didn't see the pink undertones, but once I placed Foster next to some of my other Zoya browns, I really saw how warm and pink this shade it. I was shocked, but this is one of my favs in the collection! The formula is more of a jelly than the other cream polishes in this collection, but I still got it fully opaque in 2 c oats.

BRIAR | Briar is described asa red-toned terracotta cream. I definitely see the clay color in this shade, but it is a little dustier in real life vs. these photos. Again, I got this opaque in 2 coats.

Zoya Nail Polish In Elisa

MARGARET | Margaret is described asa well-balanced vivid auburn red cream, aka true mid-toned classic red. This one is less blue based than most of my other Zoya red's -- but more on that in my comparisons post. This one had an amazing 2 coat formula, was so much more opaque on the first coat than my other reds, and it's now my fav Zoya red.

RASHIDA | Rashida is described asa dazzling ruby red with a shimmer of red micro pearl. When I look at this polish, I see really gorgeous red micro pearl, but also some bigger magenta looking flecks hidden in there -- do you see them? I got this polish opaque in an easy 2 coats.

ETTA | The next shimmer is Etta, and it's described asa vampy cabernet with a hint of violet micro pearl. I think this is a tad more purple than a glass of cabernet would be, but it's a beautiful warm purple shimmer. Again, opaque in 2 easy coats.

RIPLEY | Ripley is described asa rich boysenberry cream. I thought this would be really similar to some recent purples from Zoya, but I was surprised to see this is a fair bit darker than the purples that Zoya has put out recently! An easy 2 coats to make this crelly polish opaque.

MICHAELA | Michaela is described asa dusty purple taupe cream, and one that I made me immediately think of KL Polish Unfortunate Souls (but US is much much darker so I was quickly like JK). I can't lie, I don't love this color
