Product: ZOYA Autumn 2007 Colour Collection. Magique

Description: Fascinating, shimmering colour designed to captivate. This season's nails get glamorous in dark, rich, indulgent colours, metallic sheens and high glossy finishes that perfectly complement the jewel tones, moody greys, browns and lush blue-reds ruling the runway right now.

The look is pure indulgence and nothing screams indulgence quite like a dark polished fingernail against a faux fur-trimmed coat or a velvet cocktail dress. Think rich browns, cognacs, brown-reds, shades of wine and black.

ZOYA's new season colour palette, Magique, captures the essence of autumn perfectly with six opulent, shimmering, high shine shades that are not only long-wearing and chip-resistant but are also free from harmful industrial chemicals like toluene, formaldehyde and dibutyl phthalate (DBP) that are known to cause cancer and birth defects .

We were very excited to try these excellent nail polishes. As our panelists agree, the colours are great, the formulation and texture is smooth, the application is easy and the drying time is good. On top of it all you can rest assured that you are using a product that contains no nasty chemicals. Be sure to check out the fabulous autumn colour range, you are sure to fall in love with at least one colour from Zoya.

My first impression of this nail polish was a very nice bottle and the colour looked very pretty. It was very easy to apply and dries up very well. The colour is very pretty and I would find it suitable for autumn. The texture is even and the smell is similar to other nail polishes I have used before.

I loved the deep maroon colour, it had with a tinge of shimmer. This dark deep maroon colour is great for evening wear. It was so easy to apply as it just glided on so it made the job quick and easy (no messy finger nails). It dries with a high gloss finish. I found the smell to be the same as any other nail polish. It's one of the best nail polish I've tried, since it dries in almost an instant and doesn't chip easily.

I loved the shades of colour on the bottle and was excited about trying this nail polish. It went on very smoothly and looked fabulous after 2 coats. I tried the colour 'Anastasia' which in the bottle looked quite dark. It actually looks different in different lights and sometimes looks purple & then it looks a brown shade.

I really felt good wearing this colour on my hands and toes. The smell of this product was the usual nail polish smell and the texture of the polish was thick enough to make your nails look great. I certainly would buy this product again. I would love to see their range of colours.

The packaging is cute and functional. I used the product on my toenails as I can't wear nail polish to work. It went on quickly and wasn't too runny or thick. It dried quickly so I could jump into bed without worrying about ruining my sheets. I had a rich coppery brown colour with gold shimmer called Collette. I only needed one coat to get proper colour and coverage.

The product smells pretty similar to normal nail polishes. I expected it to have a less intense smell than regular nail polishes due to the advertised lack of the harsh chemicals normally found in commercial polish. The polish dried in just a few minutes which was excellent!

I would purchase it again because I like the fact that it dries so quickly and doesn't have the horrible chemicals in it that other nail polishes do.

I loved the colour; I couldn't wait to try it on. The application was great. It smoothed itself out when it was on the nail and it wasn't gluggy and thick but it was smooth. The colour (charity) was gorgeous, because it had a pearly shine to it. The colour wasn't too dark but it still has a very autumn/winter look to it.


The texture was very, very smooth. The smell was overpowering like any other nail polish. What let it down was the amount of time the nail polish lasted on my nail. After 2 days at the most, it had chipped on most of my nails, even though I applied a top coat.
