Viper, a stunning midnight black infused with chunky holographic glitter, is Zoya’s Color of the Month for October. But guess what? I’m christening it the Color of the Fall. It’s seriously that sexy. I only wear black, including for my pedi polish! However, I stick to a neutral base with black, raised polka dots on for my gel mani, because solid black shows chips too quickly, even with a baked, hard gel formula! I just feel “undone” with chipped black polish, even though so many of you can pull off the chipped, punk rock nail look with fashion forward, gloriously messy ease. However, Viper is going to be my go-to shade through the winter season. The sparkles cut through the rich mystery of the black and lets in some light. The formula is Big 10 Free, so you can feel good about using it, too. Add to that a wide brush that makes application easy and DIY if you can’t get to your local salon and nail tech for your biweekly mani.
