Cece

 

Described as a full impact green, textured PixieDust with a thin vein of gold creating a fizzy lemon-lime effect. Green is my favorite and this one is gorgeous! 

Bay

Described as a sky blue, textured PixieDust with fine silver and gold glitter creating a dreamy effect. This one reminds of Cinderella the blues and golds I dunno but I like it a lot! 

Tilly

 

Described as a starry grey, textured PixieDust with a small holographic glitter interwoven with a darker gunmetal. My camera loves to throw a purple flair around all things silver, this is a true icy silver and it's perfect! 

Zooey

Described as a classic pink, textured PixieDust laced with a fine thread of gold and medium sized holographic hexes for an added layer of dimension. This one has a pink/salmon feel to me, it's pretty and I love the pops of hex glitter! 

Levi

Described as a beige gold, textured PixieDust with medium holographic hex glitter. I love this one because it's not yellow heavy. It's like a deep champagne gold and I'm loving ittttt! 

Linds

Described as a cherry red, textured PixieDust with red and fuchsia glitter to mimic the look of maraschino cherries dipped in sugar! Linds is beautiful but I don't get the cherry feel, maybe if it was a bit deeper with silver instead of the micro golden flecks? 

These pixies are awesome! Each shade is just two coats over a base coat. I like to let these completely dry before moving onto the next coat. I love the gritty texture finish. Pixies are and will always be my favorite line of textured polishes. I hope they continue to release the pixies!

The Sunsets collection launched in the summer of 2016 but these colors are amazing all year round if you ask me. I've even used a couple of these for an upcoming Halloween manicure. All of my swatches are 2 coats of color and a coat of glossy top coat! Zoya is high on my favorite mainstream polish brands, if you haven't tried a zoya polish you're missing out!

·      Aster - ZP836: Fresh periwinkle with flecks of fuchsia to create a dewy finish, 

·      Eastyn - ZP825: A subtle grayed grape that is more interesting than mauve and

gives a modern alternative that is ever so wearable. 

·      Misty - ZP827: An easy to wear taupe that is an updated version of gray with

just a touch of green to make it daring. 

·         Ireland - ZP826: A uniquely wearable green that is muted enough to make it subtle

yet still interesting. This green is well balanced between blue & yellow so it’s

flattering on all skin tones. 

·         Lake - ZP828: A softened blue that gives the effect of serene water with just a

hint of vibrancy to preserve its luminosity.

ZOYA NAIL POLISH EXCHANGE

·         Estelle (ZP808) - a blue on blue liquid metal with a blackened base.

$9 (US), Available in top salons, spas and on zoya.com

Today I have some easy nail art using three zoya pixie dust colors and quatrefoil  stencils from vibrant vinyls! I've been so lazy in the art dept that I feel like I just want to use all the vinyls, so I can have super easy and fun nails in no time. This might be one of my favorites. 

Links below on where you can find Zoya & Vibrant Vinyls. 

Polishes used for this manicure are Zoya Purity for my base, and my gradient is made up of Nyx, Stevie & Arabella

I really loved the final look of this one. Gradient all the vinyl manicures!

This will be my short and sweet Independence Day post. I was hoping I would have time for an official holiday manicure and I made it just in time! 

I used Zoya "Ling", "Purity" & "America" perfect! I picked these three up last year during a Zoya  Independence Day sale I believe. I used chevron vinyls from Vibrant Vinyls and a dotting tool! Links to these retailers below. 

If you're in the U.S. Happy Independence Day to you, have a safe one! And if you're not I hope you're doing well and having an awesome day! Thanks for hanging out.

Today I have a super short and sweet nautical/4th of July mani to share with you! I used two types of vinyls from Vibrant vinyls  which are becoming my favorites, and here is what I came up with. 

Using vibrant vinyl straight vinyls I added stripes in red (zoya America) and a dark navy (zoya Ryan) over my white base for all but my accent. For my accent I used straight vinyls and added red stripes only saving enough room in the middle to place a vibrant vinyl anchor decal. Ta-da so simple! I love simple... like really love it. Vibrant vinyls are easy to use, the decal styles lay flat to the nail and are easily top coated. The vinyls stick to the nail well and arent overly sticky or hard to maneuver.

I am in love with my mani. I only wished I had used a lighter blue instead of the navy. Maybe I'll have to come back and revisit this one. All the info on where to find vibrant vinyls is listed down below, vinyls retail $5 usd, her shop also offers liquid latex and some nail art decor. Thanks for hanging out with me, I have more vinyl manicures coming your way.
Until next time!

Today's post is going to bring you a super fun summer mani using two Zoya polishes and some fun nail vinyls from SnailVinyls! These vinyls and stencils are super easy to use. They come in lots of fun designs and they ship internationally! As soon as I saw the wave vinyls and seahorse stencil, I was like yup.... Summer mani! 

It's been super hot here where I live so it already feels like summer and in the end everything about this one says swimsuit, board shorts or surfboards. I'm loving it! 

First I started off with a white base. Here I used Paper Mâché from FingerPaints. When that was completely dried I applied my vinyls and one thickish coat of Zoya Ling, which is perfection. For my accent nail I applied a seahorse vinyl stencil and sponged on Zoya Harlow, pulled the vinyl off, cleaned up and topcoated. I really like how this one turned out.

I used two coats of Zoya Taylor, stamped with Maybelline Bold Gold using a stamping image from Bundle Monster plate Bm-317 and then topped with my favorite Matte topcoat by Opi!
