Zoya Edyta is quite weird colour for me. You know....I go always for reds, purples, occasionally blues. Don't get me wrong, it's nice and quite unique colour but not really my kind of thing. But....I bought it anyway :)

Zoya Edyta - grey-ish green olive colour with green and gold flecks. Zoya describes Edyta as 'a complex mixture of gold, olive, blue-green and smoky grey with a sparkling metallic finish'. Formula of the polish was very good. I used two coats for a full coverage and the drying time kind of average. Just be careful when removing, polish stained my fingerss a little bit.

Price: 3/5
Formula: 4/5
Coverage: 4/5
Chipping: 4/5

Hi everybody, I've got some new swatches for you today :) I've got three nail polishes from the new OPI Texas Collection for Spring/Summer 2011. Here is the info about the collection I've posted before so have a look.

The first one is  Do You Think I'm Tex-y? - berry-pink jelly shade. Now the colour is just beautiful but the formula is a bit watery and runny. I had to use three coats for the coverage in the pictures. It is a jelly polish so it is not supposed to be fully opaque. Removal was absolutely without problem.

Don't Mess With OPI - "A lean, mean, kick-grass forest green". Yeas, it is just like that - mean forest green :) This polish has an opaque formula, I've used one coat however it was very runny and I ended up with lot of colour around my nails. And it stained my nails and skin a little. Buuu :( 
Its finish is not a complete creme, it is a little bit jelly-ish too, I like it. Removal was ok and it dried quite quickly.

Houston We Have A Purple -reddish purple jelly. Nice shade which applied very easily but it is a jelly again so I needed three coats for a sufficient coverage.
 *Products were send to me by PR company for a review.

I haven't had a chance to try every polish from this collection yet. But from the three shades I've tried I can say that if OPI wanted to do a nice jelly collection, well done! And you know how many of us just loves jellies, huh? However I must point out that formulas were a bit runny and you'll need more than two coats for a very nice colour. Otherwise I'm happy with the shades the created and the jelly finish.
