To sum up this post if you're in a hurry: Zoya Jo is gorgeous and my boyfriend is better at Konad-ing than I am.
Zoya Jo is a beautiful cornflower blue shimmer polish that I think is PERFECT for spring. It just screams spring to me! In the first picture, it looks kind of sky blue, but it is definitely more what I would call cornflower, as it has a touch of dusty purple/gray to it. I did three coats for the camera, but it looked great with two coats as well. The formula of this polish was great, just like every other Zoya polish I've ever tried. Zoya polish is a little thin, but in a good way that makes it easy to apply.
This second picture of Jo is much more color accurate than the first one. However you can't see the shimmer in this picture, so imagine the shimmer in the first picture with the color in the second. I will definitely be wearing this color a TON this spring, it makes me happy!
What makes me unhappy is my Konad-ing skills, or lack thereof. I tried to Konad over Zoya Jo, because I thought the Konad white polish would look really nice with the cornflower blue. But I obviously need a lot more practice Konad-ing. I only ended up with two nails that were decent enough to show you.
Sadly, these two nails were my boyfriend's first and second attempts at Konad-ing. The first attempt is the perfect hearts with the word "love". Perfect. The second attempt was the cross-hatch pattern on a diagonal which is also perfect. I didn't fully clean up the edges of the cross-hatch nail, but if I had, it would be perfect. Sooooo, basically, my boyfriend is better at Konad-ing than I am.
I'm going to go practice Konad-ing now and watch some Law and Order: SVU.
