Zoya Pixie Dust Collection 2013


Tonight I finally have the Zoya Pixie Dust Collection to show you!

This collection consists of 6 shades of textured polish:




Godiva - Soft Nude sparkle

Chyna - Red Dazzle sparkle

London - Fog Gray sparkle

Dahlia - Black Beauty sparkle

Vespa - Mint Kiss sparkle

Nyx - Perfect Periwinkle sparkle


Zoya Pixie Dust Collection


I'll just go ahead and address the formula and application now because it was the same on all 6 of them. As you would expect, it feels a little like it has sand in the polish but I had no issues with either formula or application. You do need to apply thin coats and let each coat dry between. I used no base coat and 2 coats of polish. I've included photos of each one without top coat and with one coat of Poshe top coat. They did take just a tad longer to dry but nothing that was troublesome and NOTHING like "the old days."

What do YOU think? After trying some of the other "textured" polishes (*cough Milani cough*) I was prepared to hate them. However, the finer particles along with the glitter elevate them head and shoulders above the others. Godiva and Chyna are my favorites. It's not something I would wear every day for ME, but if you're into the textures, you are going to love them.

These polishes, as well as 100s of other great Zoya polishes, retail for $8 each on zoya.com. You can also follow them on Facebook to get in on their frequent promotions and discounts as well as other information.

Model City Polish: Hey Ho, Let's Go and Wanna Be Your Boyfriend


Good morning - it's FRIDAY!!! Today I have the other two polishes in Model City's Ramones Inspired Collection to show you. Yesterday I showed you Sheena is a Punk Rocker here and right now I have Hey Ho, Let's Go and Wanna Be Your Boyfriend.

First up, Hey Ho, Let's Go. Nina, the creator, describes Hey Ho, Let's Go as follows: With the words that started it all.... Hey Ho, Let's Go! is a black jelly base filled with square, large hex, small hex, and fine silver holographic glitter.

This can be worn alone with about 3 coats, but I've layered 2 light coats over a black base with one generous coat of Poshe for the photos. No issues with this one at all. Glitters come out perfectly and lie flat on the nail.

And Wanna Be Your Boyfriend is described as a black jelly base filled with bright blue dots and small holographic teal glitter.

This one can also be worn alone with about 3 coats, but I've layered 1 coat of it over a plain black creme with one coat of Poshe top coat for the photos. No issues with this one either. Glitters spread nicely and laid perfectly flat on the nail.

What do you think of these? I think of the three (including Sheena is a Punk Rocker from yesterday) my favorite is Hey Ho, Let's Go, which is REALLY odd because it't the one without circle glitters, which are my favorite! It must be the holo micro-glitter against the black that calls to me.

I still have a couple more to show you from Model City Polish, so stay tuned!

Model City Polishes are available at their Etsy Store here and you can follow/like them on Facebook here to stay up-to-date on releases, re-stocks, new colors, swatches, etc. Polishes retail for $8 for full-sized bottles and $4 for minis.
