Saint is so pretty, one of my fav shimmers, love the periwinkle base and the pink flash, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, Saint also stamps, best over a lighter colour maybe, strangely Zoya put her in the purple violet colour category on their website.

Walker is gorgeous, a really intense bright blue, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, Walker also stamps.

I'm running late today because a certain black pan-thor decided he needed a long snoozy amount of lap time and who was I to make him move when he looked so cute. The other day I pulled out my winter blanket as one night last week I woke up a bit chilly, who knew that was how to get the cats to both sleep on the bath at the same time! If only Obi would stay during the night like Ellie does. 

Zoya Haul

Happy Monday

I managed to get my paws on the Zoya Barefoot Collection and below I have comparisons for you.  This is a long post with lots of pictures so, grab a snack and drink.  I have a polish fairy who very kindly lets me order from the USA site.

Below is the barefoot box plus 2 Fancy Gloss I couldnt resist. I have a post coming up about those two.

So the box consisted of the 12 polishes from the collection, 12 z-wide brushes, one remove plus in the flipper bottle, a sample pack of their naked manicure set of handcream and a spray moisturiser both really nice, the handcream smells really good not a very strong smell either which is great as some smells can give me migraine.  Plus 2 lipsticks, which I havent tried yet. they dont smell of anything though.

Now for the comparisons, this is a lot of photos!  All photos were taken in natural light, it was not sunny here in the UK, the new polish is always to the left in the bottle shots and the top stick in the swatch photos

So first up

L to R
Dallas
Alicia
Monet

No dupes, Zoya hasnt done this kind of topper before.

If you see the white dots on the caps that means I switched out the brush to the z-wide one.

L to R
Bee
Daisy
Piaf

No dupes, Bee is brighter than Daisy and Piaf almost has a grey undertone with that shimmer.

L to R
Joey
Dot
Lulu

No dupes this was very close in the bottle but look at the difference on the swatch sticks, Lulu I put in because Joey has quite a peachy undertone.

L to R
Tessa
Flowie
Cole

No dupes, Tessa is much brighter and peachier than Flowie and Cole is pure creamsicle orange.

L to R
Keira
Beth
Jules

No dupes, they look similar in the bottle but theyre not close on the swatch sticks, Keira has a very brown copper undertone, Jules is one of my all time favs, its both silver and gold, very unusual.

L to R
Dacey
Jolene
Starla

Close but not exact dupes, Dacey is a shade darker than Jolene with a hint more blue undertone.

L to R
Macey
Journey
Ember

Close but not exact, Macey is a shade lighter than Ember and Journey has a different finish.

L to R
Liza
Padma
Tamsen
Pepper

Liza is one of those weird colours Zoya do, Liza is described as a rich, cardinal red cream, while Padma is described as a deep, vermilion red cream, however, to me these two are pink, Tamsen is a tomato red and Pepper is a brick red.

L to R
Robbie
Everly
Bobbie

No dupes, Robbie has golden shimmer, Everly is a holo and Bobbie has silver shimmer.

L to R
Rie
Audrina
Evette
Kieko

No dupes, Rie is a shade darker than Audrina, Evette and Kieko have a blue undertone.

L to R
Eleni
Lillian
Rayne
Blu

No dupes, Eleni is brighter than Lillian, Rayne has shimmer and Blu is much lighter.

L to R
Walker
Saint
Barry M Damson

No dupes within Zoya, however, I brought a ringer in because Damson is a dupe for the famous Sally Hanson Pacific Blue, Walker has a slighter greener undertone but its close as a dupe.

Thats them all, did I miss a comparison?? Let me know in the comments and if I have the Zoya I'll compare for you.
