Hello lovelies,

 

I am so late with this collection due to my holiday, sorry! Yes, I'm finally reviewing the Zoya PixieDust collection for Fall 2013. It consists of six new textured shades in Autumn colours.

 

Zoya PixieDust Fall 2013 - Review and swatches

 


Tomoko - champagne silver. Tomoko is very sparkly with its silver glitter but the base colour is more champagne.

Sunshine - rich denim blue. Zoya describes this shade as Van Gogh blue which might as well be. Sunshine is also packed with silver glitter and it's very sparkly.

All of the polishes have the same formula that applied very easily and dried average. It takes slightly longer for PixieDusts to dry and harden up so make sure you allow enough time. They are all well-pigmented and provide full coverage in two regular or thicker coats.

 

Overall, it's a  great colour selection and my favourite so far. I like the PixieDusts very much, especially for pedicures as they last very long without chipping and they sparkle in the sun.

 

Zoya polishes are available at your usual outlets or at zoya.com

Hello lovelies,

Do you remember one of my previous posts where I've translated dresses into nail art? Well you all loved it so I'm doing it again! This time I have selected two dresses from ARK, a clothes e-tailer.

The first dress I instantly wanted to recreate was Ark White Xena Cut Out Body Con Dress. I like the idea of very light beige pink paired with defined black lines. I have used Zoya Kennedy and Zoya Raven for this design.

The second dress I fell in love with was Hearts & Bows Galaxy Pambula Dipped Back Skater Dress. How awesome is that multi-coloured galaxy print? I just had to do this one!

I started off with white background and then I have used so many polishes that I won't bore you with a list. If you'll want to recreate this manicure just pick similar colours you own.

So what do you think? I liked the idea of nail designs inspired by fashion as you've seen on some other blogs. What I love the most is that even if every single nail blog would do dress inspired manicure it would always be an original art work, never the same!

 

Would you like to see more dress inspired manicures in the future?

 

Have a nice day xoxo
