Hello lovelies,

 

I've finally finished the second half of Zoya Summer collection - Bubbly. The Bubbly collection consists of six shimmery glitter shades that complement the Tickled collection (reviewed here). They are all in fun bright shades and they look great layered over creme polishes ;)

Jesy - orange jelly base with gold shimmer and opalescent glitter. I've applied three coats by themselves to get good coverage as the polish is quite sheer.

All polishes in this collection have the same formula and same opalescent glitter. They are different just in the colour of the jelly base. They all applied quite well despite being slightly thicker and they dried fast. The two orange shades are slightly sheerer and are better layered. I like this collection a bit more than the creme shade part and I have some glitter gradient coming up with one of them.

 

Zoya polishes are available at zoya.com (US) and at tnbl.co.uk (UK)

 

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

 

I'm having shitty couple of weeks (but I'm not going to bore you with details) but that won't stop me in sharing some new nail polishes with you! I got approached by The Monthly Nail if I would like to sample their nail polish box...well yeah! I had no idea what to expect so I was very curious when the box arrived. Inside I found two Eugene Malibu polishes wrapped in pink tissue paper and The Monthly Nail card. I've never heard of Eugene Malibu (indie) brand before so I was excited to try something new. Let's check out the polishes...

Electric Zoo - bold blue shimmer. The colour of this polis is great but the formula was a bit tricky. It was a bit thick yet sheer so I've decided to apply it over black polish. First coat was quite streaky so I've applied second coat of Electric Zoo and that seemed to do the trick. All streaks were covered, colour was rich and it looked nice. Due to thicker coats the polish dried a bit slower so I ended up applying topcoat as well.

Electric Daisy - mix of blue and pink glitter with a dash of lime, red and pearl white glitters in a clear base with a bit of blue shimmer. It's a very unusual combination but it works. I've applied one coat over Electric Zoo and the shades complimented each other beautifully. The base was a tad thicker but it was still quite easy to manage so no problems here. Lovely glitter bomb :)
