OLIVE & JUNE X ZEBA COLLECTION SWATCHES AND REVIEW
LET'S TALK OLIVE & JUNE X ZEBA
pr sample
If you love following nail accounts on Instagram, you have probably seen the hype surrounding this brand new collection. The bright colors are perfect for the coming summer season and Olive & June are known for their 7-free long lasting formula. So, do these polishes live up to the hype? Let's dive in and see!
WHAT IS ZEBA?
Zeba is a lifestyle brand specializing in body celebration and self-love founded by Nabela Noor. The collaboration with Olive & June is a self-love celebration in mani form! Nabela is an activist and entrepreneur promoting body positivity and celebration. Combining the Zeba brand with Olive & June shades, the collection is the perfect way to spark self-expression. I know personally that painting my nails whatever color I want and doing fun nail art is a way to express myself creatively and I am so excited that this collection is fully embracing that! Also, for every nailfie that you take (a picture of your nails) with your favorite shade on and a heart drawn on your hand, Olive & June will donate $1 to the Professional Beauty Association COVID-19 relief fund. All you need to do is post your photo and tag @oliveandjune and @zeba on Instagram like this:
THE SHADES
There are 7 bright shades in this collection. I was lucky enough to have been gifted the full studio box which includes a top coat, nail file, nail buffer, clean-up brush, nail clippers and cuticle balm. It also includes their acetone-free remover pot which I swear is magic. If you want to see a full unboxing and demo of the remover pot, head on over to my Instagram here and click the "unboxing' story highlight. The 7 shades in this collection are called:
Grateful & Kind - A pure pink that's all heart
Wild & Free - A fierce coral that's all fun
Sweet & Gracious - An energized orange that's up for anything
Bright & Focused - A beaming yellow that ignites creativity
Honest & True - A serene blue that's calm and centering
Bold & Unshaken - A bold purple that elevates every mood
Fierce & Loving - A fresh lilac that is unapologetically unique

GRATEFUL & KIND
WILD & FREE
SWEET & GRACIOUS
Shown are 3 coats of Sweet & Gracious. This is a bright summer tangerine shade. I definitely do not have an orange quite like this in my collection. It is bright and daring which makes it fit into this collection perfectly.
BRIGHT & FOCUSED
Shown here are 3 coats of Bright & Focused, a gorgeous sunshine yellow! I mean can you say summer in a bottle?! This polish had a decent formula, and I am obsessed with yellows for summer.
HONEST & TRUE
This is such a calming blue shade! This is 3 coats of Honest & True. I think this is the perfect balance of brightness in a shade by being a little muted to make it more of a neutral shade for all occasions.
BOLD & UNSHAKEN
This may be my favorite in the collection. This is 3 coats of Bold & Unshaken, but it really only needed 2 to be completely opaque. I love that this is such a unique take on a purple shade and I really don't have anything like this in my collection.
FIERCE & LOVING
Finally we have 3 coats of Fierce & Loving. This is a mix between pink and purple, making this beautiful lilac shade. I am really looking forward to encorporating this into my next skittle mani.
FINAL THOUGHTS
Overall, if you couldn't tell, I really fell in love with this collection. I love the message that it sends and the shades are perfection! Want to see these polishes applied via live swatch? Check out my YouTube video here!

GRATEFUL & KIND
Shown here are 2 coats of Grateful & Kind. I described this one as a Barbie bubblegum pink. I am not normally a big fan of pink but this one really caught me as beautiful. Not terribly unique to my polish collection, but a fun shade for summer for sure.
Here are 3 coats of Wild & Free. When I first saw press release images of this collection, this is the shade I was the most excited to swatch. It looked like a really unique polish shade and I knew I had nothing like this in my collection. I am a sucker for normal creme polishes, so finding a unique shade is something I am always after. I can't wait to start wearing this one this summer and the formula was fantastic!
