NOTD: Zoya's Charla


For those of you getting sick of my obsession with Zoya polishes I hope you will begin to understand my fascination with them after seeing this lovely. Is she green? Is she Blue? Is she both? I'll tell you what she is - FREAKING AWESOME.

Zoya describes this colour as a "topical blue sparkling metallic" and to be fair they have hit it on the head. The base appears to be teal with green-gold shimmer but move the bottle in the light and you will see all those colours and more. Unfortunately the green colour isn't showing up in the pictures -must be camera shy but trust me it's there.



It's pretty freaking gorgeous right? All photos were taken in natural light and have 2 coats. I am almost 100% sure there is no top coat - but I didn't write it down (sorry!).

What Zoya shades have stolen your heart?

  1. that colour is totally awesome!!! makes me think of christmas actually for some reason. i haven't tried any Zoyas before... actually I got Gaia in a swap, and while I love the colour in the bottle on my nails actually need 7 coats(no joke) to get the same shade. and because 7 shades means it will never dry, i've never worn it.

  2. M and M - Oh how disappointing. I hate when you stumble on a dud sheer shade, I mean who wouldn't want the colour as it appears in the bottle? 7 coats is craziness. I must admit I never usually buy now unless I can see a swatch just for that reason.
