Have you ever seen such beauty in your whole entire life?
The new Spring/Summer range from Zoya is just outstanding, and I have a couple of the new shades here for you to drool over. 
The new 'Tickled' and 'Bubbly' range consist of twelve gorgeous shades, all of which are perfect for any Summer event. The Tickled collection has six super vibrant, yet intensely full coverage shades, which will leave you with a perfect creamy finish. The Bubbly collection on the other hand is just as bright, but each of the six shades are jam packed with shimmering holographic glitters. 

In addition to these, Zoya have released three new shades in their Pixie Dust range. Shades 'Ginni', 'Bar' and 'Arlo' are packed with the usual pixie dust shimmer and leave you with the most beautiful textured finish.

Zoya Bubbly in 'Muse' (£11) is now I think one of my all time favourite polishes. This shade has tons of tiny, holographic glitter pieces suspended in the most perfect summer blue. It's a mermaid's tail on your nails; and the gorgeous green and blue glitter almost create a duo-chrome effect and looks stunning in any light. If you want a slight sparkle to your nails, just apply one coat and go; but if you're like me and want a full on glitter 'splosion, then just add one more coat for some solid glitter loving. 
The finish of this polish is smooth, shiny and hardwearing. Usually I chip my polish whilst writing my posts on an evening, but this one hasn't budged. 

Zoya Magical Pixie Dust in 'Ginni' (£11) is again, stunning. As a lover of textured polishes, how could I not love this one too. Much like 'Muse' above, 'Ginni' is full of glitter. Beautiful pink glitter in a range of shades and sizes. Perfectly opaque in just two coats, the finish of this polish is fabulously textured, almost matte, and with the addition of the glitter these polishes make for the perfect sparkly addition to any outfit. 

I have to admit something now. I have never tried a Zoya polish before these. Yes, I know, bad beauty blogger; but believe you me, I have been drawn in by their magnificence and I can't see myself wanting to purchase any other brand for a while. 
The shade range is spot on, they apply easily and dry super fast; and they are free from all of the nail polish baddies, aren't tested on animals and are 100% organic. 
What's not to love? 

Now where did I put my purse...

Glossybox January Review Week - Day Three
Hi Lovelies!
I was pleasantly surprised to see a little Orly Nail Varnish, I hadn't seen any blogger previews that had received one.
The colour I received was Ruby, a pretty deep red that would go perfectly under the Deborah Lippmann polish from the Christmas Box. For a full size bottle you can expect to pay £6.95, which I think is a reasonable price considering how much you would pay for a polish from O.P.I.

I love the colour, but the formula felt really gloopy and was really difficult to apply evenly. It dried so quickly that if I had taken my time applying it, I would have ended up with brush streaks on my nails.
I've heard so many good things about Orly, but now I'm just a little disappointed. I'm not sure I would intentionally go out to purchase one after this.
