Pixie Dust Summer Awesome-ness Part 2

Some of the products in this post were sent to me for review. I was not paid for my review of this product and all opinions are my own
 
Okay so this post is going up a little late:) Forgive me!!!  But on to the beauties, I showed off 3 of this collection last night, If you missed it you can see it here. Part 2 will not disappoint!!! 
 
First up is Liberty! This is a sparkly perfect medium blue.  Now it is no surprise that blue is one of my favorite colors, but even so this blue is sooo pretty it just jumped to the top of my favorite blues!!!! The formula is perfect and only took two coats to full opacity; however, even though Zoya does not recommend a base coat for the pixie dust collection, I DO!!!! Liberty will stain your pretty clean nails blue!!!!
 
 
 
 Next up is Miranda. This polish is a fabulous red/mauve and sooo sparkly!!!! This polish was the one in the collection that kinda threw me for a loop. It does not really fit in to my idea of a Summer color:( This to me is more of a fall color.  The formula is equally as good as the rest of the collection.
 
 
 
 Last but not least is Stevie, this violet beauty is the perfect summer shade:)  The Silvery sparkle is way more noticeable in this polish than the others in the collection. This polish I felt was also a little outta place in this collection, I think it is because it is a pastel shade and not as bright as the others in this collection.  Again only 2 coats needed for this mani and it was just slightly thicker that the others.
 
 
 
So my lovelies what do you think of this collection??? I LOVE it!!! Zoya definitely is leading the pack in the textured polish trend, now if we can get the fairies to create a Neon version!!!!  Again all of these polishes are available at www.zoya.com for $9.  Happy Weekend!!!!

Pixie Dust Summer Awesome-ness Part 1

Some of the products in this post were sent to me for review. I was not paid for my review of this product and all opinions are my own
 
So dolls I have a gorgeous collection from Zoya to show you tonight:) The Pixie Dust Summer Collection:) Now let me just begin by saying that I was not a huge fan of texture polishes... until now:) This whole collection has blown my socks off!!! The only thing this collection was missing was a green:) For all of the swatches I did with and without topcoat, and they are gorgeous both ways!!!!!
 
First up is Solange, this gold is electrifying!!!! It is bright, gorgeous, and me not being a big fan of gold I was totally captivated!!! I used 2 coats of Solange for complete coverage:) The formula is perfect and dry-time was about 20 minutes total:)




 Next up is Beatrix. This is a must have tangerine dream polish!!! Beautiful, exquisite, and perfect are just a few of the words that I have used to describe this polish.  The color reminds me of the orange in a sunset and even though it is bright is it soothing and calming:) 2 coats gave complete coverage and again formula was great!!!



 The last polish tonight is Destiny,  this pink/coral beauty is my fav of these three:) It is girly and fun with just the right amount of sass!!!! I like the non topcoated version of this mani the best, it gives an edgy-ness and modern flair to this mani.  The formula on this polish was slightly thinner  than the others and took three coats to full opacity but totally worth it!!!! Dry time was 30 minutes for the mani:)



So what do you think so far!!!  I LOVE IT:) Each of these polishes is available for purchase from www.zoya.com for $9 each:) Stay tuned tomorrow for the rest of this fabulous collection!!!!

Chirality Holo-Goodness

Tonight I get to review a fabulous collection of 5 polish from one of my favorite Indie makers Chirality!!! Amanda and Jason are polish geniuses, and some of the sweetest people I know!!! First up is Bromine. This a light pink/brown, is a perfect nude holo!!!! The formula is absolutely perfect for all of these polishes!!!!! Two coats give full coverage, and just look how gorgeous this is!!!
 
 
 
 Next up is Convergence, is a fabulous purple that leans more red than blue!!! This polish reminded me sooo much of Zoya Aurora, but the holo is linear vs scattered. So if you like Aurora you will LOVE this!!! Again 2 coats is all it took followed with a coat of SV. 
 
 
 
 Asymptote is a rich medium green holo. The difference in this polish and most other holos I have seen is it leans more gold than silver. Again like the other only 2 coats needed:) I absolutely LOVE this polish it is sooo gorgeous!!!
 
 
 
 Absolute Zero is my favorite of this line. This polish is a light bluish/green holo. I can't even begin to describe how beautiful this polish is IRL. It is sooo perfect, especially for spring!!!  Again only 2 coats needed!!!
 
 
 
Quarks is the final installment!!!  This polish is a dark blue beauty:) It is the perfect shade, it reminds me of a summer night sky right after the sun goes down. again only two coats needed and WOWZA!!!
 
 
 
 So are you as IN LOVE with this collection as I am:) I am just in awe of the talent behind this whole line!!!! These polish are available @ http://chirality.bigcartel.com/ and are only $4.25 for minis and $8 for full size!!!  So Go get you some!!! and Don't for get to show some LOVE on Chirality's Facebook Page:)
