I'm a simple Scottish girl with an unusual name and a strange obsession for nail polish! My aim is to capture what the eye sees, with a camera! Too much nail polish and never enough time. I have also started wildlife photography, which I enjoy very much. Welcome to my little world :-)

Zoya Harper

I could not resist getting the Bubbly collection from Zoya! I caved in last week and got all 6! This is the first one I decided to try.



This is easy to use, easy to apply and okay drying (3 minutes a coat). It is very lovely and I love all the sparkles and the glitter and the shimmer! Some of the little glitters are iridescent too :-D The brush is excellent and gives good coverage. This is such a pretty polish and I cannot wait to try the others! Lasted really well. My only grumble about this is the removal - nightmare! Even with the foil method, I let it soak for at least 1-2 minutes and I still had little glitter particles on my nails! I just scraped them off.

  1. It's subtle and delicate :) I see you become a fan of Zoya ;) When it comes to glitters, I've bought a box with a sponge inside filled with nail polish remover. It's the easiest way for me to remove glitter.

    1. It really is :-D Oh I've liked Zoyas for a while, just not the price :-| Oh right, that sounds good. Usually the foil method works a treat - it must have been this one that broke the rule ;-)

  4. Oooooh, it's beautiful! I really liked the look of all these, but haven't got round to buying any yet.

    I'm interested to find out how the referendum goes! I really miss living in Dundee.

    1. It is! I know, they are all too lovely ;-)

  5. Excellent choices! I was stoked on this collection as soon as I saw the first promo shots, and Harper is a standout among standouts. The removal is the only drawback and why I haven't worn mine more often.

    It is indeed a big day for you! I don't know enough to give an educated opinion but I am excited to learn the outcome.

    1. Thanks :-D Oh the removal was terrible! I hope it doesn't put me off wearing the others....probably not!

      Well that's it all done with - I'm tired as I was up all night watching the results. Should be interesting to see what happens now......

  7. You just reminded me, for a long time already I wanted to wear 'my bubblies' on black. Not enough nails to wear all I want. :o(

    Kind regards,

  9. Luckily (for my wallet) I didn't like this collection so much to get it, those big hexes kinda stopped me. But I really love their hues and what they look like in a gradient over cremes.
    This pink is really lovely!

    1. Well this is the first I tried and was glad it was only two coats! The rest look really good too so I'll need to try them! Get them when your bank account is a bit happier! They are so expensive over here :-(
