Zoya Enchanted Swatches and Review

Hi Dolls:) Today I have the New Enchanted Collection from Zoya to share with you!!! This Collection has 2 color shifting metallics and 4 new pixie dust texture polishes.

*press sample*

First up is Olivera, She is a majestic indigo based color flip metallic that flashes deep green and purple:) Now depending on the light and angle this beauty flips from a dark indigo to a deep green both with a purple flash!

 Saint is a rich shimmery cornflower/periwinkle blue that has an intense magenta flash. He doesn't shift colors like Olivera does, but his flash is fantastic even though it doesn't translate in the pics.

 Next is Alice:) She is an intense perwinkle pixie, with fabulous magenta, blue and silver sparkles!!! 

 Lorna is deep berry magenta pixie:) She shows her mysterious side with pink and plum colored sparkles:)

This is  Elphie! She is a deep emerald green pixie with light and dark green sparkles!

 Waverly, in all of his handsomeness,  is a rich sapphire blue with cobalt and navy sparkles! 

Like all pixie dust polishes these have a texture similar to a heavy grit nail file with a perfect matte finish. The depth of these can really be seen with a top coat added and then they take on an almost gem like sparkle! All swatches are 2 coats:)  The formula on all of these was exactly what I expect from Zoya, Perfect! Drying time for the pixies was right on point with past pixies (approx 10 min to full matte, 30 to complete set) My faves are Olivera, Elphie and Waverly the richness of these colors is perfect for the Holiday season!!! All are available on www.zoya.com for $10:)

Zoya Seashells Swatches and Review

Hey Dolls!!!! Are you ready for Summer YET???? I am:) Especially with all of the fabulous summer collections coming out now:) Today I have the new Seashells Collection to share with you. Zoya stated last year that they were retiring PixieDust polish but surprised us all with this collection of Pixies, and although I may never become a huge fan of texture finished polishes I really like these!

*press sample*

Cece has a bold grass green base packed with green and gold glitters with just a touch of darker green glitters to create some interesting depth. 

Cece with 1 coat of Gelous and 1 coat of SV. I love the way topcoats change the whole look and feel of texture polish!

 Bay is a sheer light blue base packed with sky blue, gold and sliver glitters. It also has some medium and dark blue glitters mixed in to give it that classic pixie dust look:)

 Bay with 1 coat Gelous and 1 coat SV.

 Tilly is jammed with bright silver and gun metal glitters with a load of fine holo glitters. This color is shiny and flashy and gorgeous, perfect to stand out against a LBD or perfectly pedicured toes!!!!

Tilly with 1 coat Gelous and 1 coat SV.

 Linds is packed with red glitter in a semi sheer red base with a flash of pink and gold.  This is the only color in this collection that I didn't like.  It is brighter than Chyna (Spring 2013) but didn't dry as matte as the others and again gave me the creepy vibe of dried blood...

 Linds with 1 coat of Gelous and 1 coat of SV... Don't mind it as much with the topcoat as much more of the pink and gold show through:)

 Zooey is a petal pink glitterfest with a ton of gold glitters and just a touch of holo flash glitters. The gold in this polish makes it flash peach depending on the angle and light:)

Zooey with 1 coat Gelous and 1 coat SV.

 Levi is the Gold version of Tilly:) Packed with gold and darker gold glitters with a big flash of holo! This one was the biggest surprise for me in this collection because I love the texture of this one:)

Levi with 1 coat Gelous and 1 coat SV.

So are you happy that Zoya brought back the PixieDust formula or is this a trend to be led out to pasture??? I am personally happy that PixieDusts are back, even though I don't think I will ever truly love texture polishes... The look of them with a topcoat to me is perfection!!! The polishes are available now on Zoya.com for $10 and as an added Bonus Zoya created a Lipstick to go perfectly with this collection  

Here is Millie a fun deep Berry Pink:) Also available for $12:)

So today just in time for Black Friday I have the Zoya Wishes collection for you!

 Haven is up next:) This gem is a rich purple shimmer with red undertones! Completely gorgeous:) Here is 2 coats with a coat of SV!!!

 Willa, is my favorite of this collection! A deep deep smoky black that is not flat or too harsh, just perfection!!! Here is 2 coats followed by a coat of SV:)

Imogen is a gorgeous black Ultra Pixie, add a topcoat and WOWZA!!! Here is 2 coats with no topcoat (bottom pic of all pixie dusts are with a coat of Gelous and SV)

 Thea, is like Aurora's pixie dust twin!!! And Aurora is one of my favorite polishes of all time:) A plum like purple pixie dust... freaking awesome! Here are two coats with no top coat:) and then you add a top coat and Magic!!!

 Nori, is the last in the collection. A gorgeous bright blue Pixie!!! This beauty is a nice break from the dark colors that we normally see in winter but totally doable :) Here are two coats with no top coat, but when you add a top coat its like jelly!!!

So what do you think of this collection, I love it! It is available now on the Zoya website, and I'm sure they're going to have some awesome deals for Black Friday they always do!
