Aurora - pink holographic shade. It's a lovely and quite vibrant pink. I actually didn't know that Sleeping Beauty's name was Aurora :) Two coats provided good coverage and the holo effect is nice and strong.

Rapunzel - purple holographic shade. This shade of purple is absolutely stunning in real life! It's more red-based than the photos show and it has this soft yet vibrant feel to it. I've applied two coats again.

Cinderella - sky blue holographic shade. The blue is just perfect, I love it. It is quite bold and the mixed the holographic particles give it that extra special touch. I'm wearing two coats which provided good coverage.

Jasmine - turquoise holographic shade. Very pretty turquoise shade leaning towards blue undertones. I've applied two thicker coats because Jasmine is slightly sheerer than the rest of the collection.

Tiana - light green holographic shade. This shades is fresh, bright and reminds me of Spring :) Tiana is a bit sheerer like Jasmine so I've applied two thick coats.

Ariel - light teal holographic shade. Now this is a stunner! The shade is quite unique as it is teal but not that full and bold shade but light and pretty. Two regular coats were enough for a good coverage.

What a rainbow of colours, right? I liked the colours in the first half of the collection but I love these! Especially Ariel, Cinderella and Rapunzel. They are all so pretty and glossy, so fun!

 

Their formula was the same except slightly lower opacity with Tiana and Jasmine. They all applied well and dried quite fast. I've applied topcoat over all of them. They dry glissy but sometimes the surface is not completely smooth so the topcoat does add that bit of extra polished look.

 

If you'd like to get your hands on the F.U.N Lacquer Princess Collection, hurry up because it is available till stock lasts and will be discontinued. You can purchase it at F.U.N Lacquer store, each full size bottle holds 16.7 ml of nail polish and is sold for $13. Mini sizes (7ml) are available too for $7.50.

Hello lovelies,

 

I've got here another collection for Fall 2013 - Zoya Cashmeres. Cashmeres collection consists of six creme shades and is only half of the Fall release. The second collection is called Satins and introduces five shimmer & metallic polishes and luxe gold topper. More on that one in another post ;)

Flynn - light brown creme. It's a good neutral Fall shade that probably won't appeal to everyone. But I can imagine wearing it for a work interview or similar. I've applied two coats for perfect coverage.

Pepper - red-based brown creme. Pepper is leaning heavily towars dark red tones which I really like. It's a pretty and warm shade that was opaque in two coats. Pepper was earlier released as a part of Peter Som mini collection.

Livingston - red creme. It's a beautiful tomato red shade that I really enjoyed wearing. It's rather blue-based red that also offers great pigmentation. It is perfectly opaque in two coats.

Louise - dark chocolate brown creme. I'm usually not a huge fan of browns but this one is kinda vampy and I liked that. I'm wearing two coats. I've already done a nail art with it and gold nail foils.

Sailor - blue navy creme. The shade heavily leans towards purple and it's one of those colours I call 'blurple'. It is fully opaque in two coats and I absolutely love it! Check out a nail art manicure with Sailor.

Hunter - dark green creme. This is truly the same awesome green as Hunter wellies :) It perfectly fits the Fall season. I've applied two coats for full coverage.

The formula of all of them was perfect, no problems at all. They applied easily and were perfectly opaque in two coats, some of them almost one coaters. Zoya hasn't dissapointed me again. Their creme shades are always perfect and I also like the colours chosen to represent this year's Fall. My absolute favourites are Sailor and Livingston. Next one up is the Satins colection so stay tuned ;)

 

You can purchase Zoya at Zoya.com if you live in US. In UK you can get them at Amazon, Amarya or on Ebay. But I'm sure there are more places onlne that sell Zoya.
