Zoya Bubbly Collection for Summer 2014 Swatches and Review

Hey guys! I have the second half of the Zoya summer polishes for you today! They are glittery and awesome and shiny and sparkly and let's just get to it!


Zoya Bubbly

For this first one only, I'm going to show you what they look like with 1, 2, and 3 coats. These can be worn on their own because they are in tinted jelly bases, or as a topcoat with one layer. Keep in mind with my pictures, I only use natural outdoor light for photos and direct sun really shines through the layers of polishes more so than indoor light. Also, if my direct sun picture look a little blurry at times, it's because they are so shiny and sparkly that camera was FREAKING OUT not knowing where to focus ha ha!
 
The first up is Stassi....super pretty green and to me the first thing I thought when I saw the bottle was....that's like a Christmas tree in a bottle! haha!

For most of these, if you were going to wear them on their own, I think 2 coats would be fine. But since the sun is so unforgiving, I showed all the rest of the swatches with 3 coats.

Next is Binx, a pink leaning purple glitter (like my fancy color names?)
This one is a definite favorite for me, just like her creme sister Rooney from the Tickled half!

Next is Muse, my obvious favorite. As soon as I got these polishes I couldn't get this one on my fingers quick enough! More thoughts on it at the end! (ps...I wore Muse with 2 coats through out the weekend and I think it's the most opaque of the bunch...but for consistency I'm showing it with 3 here) (pps...I got TONS of compliments on it every where I went!)

Next is Alma, the lighter of the 2 oranges. Pretty, if you like orange you'll like this!

Next is Harper, the baby doll pink of the bunch. I like this way more than I thought, and boy is it apologetically pink! Not as sheer as you would think.

Last is Jesy, the darker, more red-orange of the 2 oranges.  This is more sheer than I thought it would be. Pretty, if you like orange.

Final Thoughts:
These are super pretty glitters! From the promotional pictures I and a lot of others thought they would be more like the ranks of Storm, Aurora, Dream, etc. And that they are definitely NOT. I don't have any comparisons for these because I don't have anything else like them  at all!

These also look amazing as topcoats over their sister creme counter parts from the Tickled collection. I just did not have  time to show them like that additionally for this post, but I will be showing them coming soon!

I wore Muse for several days over the weekend, and honestly, given that these are by gosh glitter polishes, I was dreading the removal. Especially because I'm a bad nail blogger and do not use foil. I am super happy to report, removal was NO PROBLEM! I did not have to even scrub at all. I just hold the cotton ball on my nail for about 15 sec and wipe off (much like the Zoya recommended method for removing the Pixie Dust). So yay for that!

My favs are Muse, Binx, Stassi, and Harper!

Zoya can be purchased on Zoya.com and at selected retailers, see Zoya.com for a list!
