@ZoyaNailPolish Magical PixieDust: Summer Collection!
✯ PR Sample ✯
Today I have the Zoya Magical PixieDust, Summer 2014 Collection! Arlo, Bar, & Ginni can be purchased as a set, or individually.
Arlo is a pretty violet amethyst color with holographic glitter. I used three thin coats. The Summer PixieDusts have more of a jelly base, then the Spring Collection. Zoya Rooney from the Tickled Collection is my accent nail.
Bar is a lovely nude, or as I call it sand colored polish. I like this one a lot more in person, than I did when I saw the Zoya press release. Three thin coats, and I decided to keep with the beach theme by using Zoya Muse from the Bubbly Collection as my accent nail, stamped with Winstonia Store W108.
Ginni is a summery pink color. When I saw the Zoya promo for the summer collection I couldn't figure out why they would do another pink when they just had Lux in the Spring Collection... but they are completely different. Ginni is much brighter. This is 3 coats with Zoya Kitridge from the Tickled Collection on my accent nail.
Seeing them side by side, I think I prefer Ginni over Lux now.
Which is your favorite, from Zoya's Summer Magical Pixiedust Collection?

✯ PR Sample ✯
Today I am sharing the gorgeous Zoya Tickled, Summer 2014 collection with you! These are 6 vibrant colors perfect for summer! I used the Zoya Bubbly collection for Accent nails, along with some stamping. (I've used Seche Vite topcoat on all swatches below). Both of the summer collections can be purchased as a set or individually at Zoya.com. (I used Seche Vite topcoat below on all the swatches).

@ZoyaNailPolish, Bubbly Collection!
✯ PR Sample ✯
Today I am sharing the gorgeous Zoya Bubbly, Summer 2014 collection with you! I decided to do accent nails with the Zoya Tickled collection. (I will have the review for that collection here on the blog in a few more days). Both of the summer collections can be purchased as a set or individually at Zoya.com. (I used Seche Vite topcoat below on all the swatches).
Zoya Binx (accent nail is Rooney), I kind of wish I had done 3 coats instead of two. This is darker than Harper and more an Orchid Purple. It's so sparkly in person, I love this color.
Zoya Muse (accent nail is Ling). Two coats, plus topcoat for this color. Lovely bright blue!

Zoya Harper (accent nail is Kitridge from the Tickled collection). This is two coats, plus topcoat. I was surprised these weren't as sheer as I thought they would be. This one reminds me of pink lemonade for some reason, I really love it.

Oh! Painted Nubbs had a fan on Facebook asking for a comparison of Zoya Muse, Charla & Crystal the other night. Ashlee only had Muse, so she asked if someone could compare. If you're curious- here is what they all look like on the nail, no dupes here!
Zoya Jesy (accent nail is Rocha) orange coral color with gold shimmer. This one was a bit sheerer than the others, so I used 3 coats. By the way, all of these polishes have glitter, but they were not hard to remove at all with some acetone.
Zoya Stassi (accent nail is Tilda) I also needed 3 coats for Stassi, I felt it was too sheer at two coats. I wish I have chosen a different design for the striping tape though- because I feel it looks like a turtle shell with the green, lol!
My genuinely talented nail art friends, please don't be offended by this- it's just a joke, lol! My friend Autumn said they could be Ninja Turtle nails since the accent nail looks like a turtle shell, so as a late night joke I searched for some pictures- and stuck them on my nails on Paintshop Pro, hehehe! (Photos were found here).
Zoya Alma (accent nail Wendy). 2 coats. Alma is a pretty marigold color. I didn't think this color looked too bad with my skintone actually. Usually yellows do not play nice with my pale skin.

Zoya Awaken: Spring 2014
✯ PR Sample ✯
I have the Zoya Awaken spring 2014 collection and Zoya Monet to share with you today. The awaken collection has 6 spring colors in cremes & shimmer. Monet is separate. Monet, is an iridescent glitter topper.
Hudson: is probably my favorite out of the entire Awaken collection. I have a weak spot for purples, hehe. Hudson is described as a metallic purple orchid color. It has silver shimmer throughout. I used 3 thin coats of Hudson for the photo below. Zoya Cosmo from the Magical collection is on my ring finger.
Dot is a pastel pink, it's also a bit sheer so I needed 3 coats to make it opaque. On my ring finger is Zoya Lux from the Magical collection.
Rebel: is a beautiful bright metallic blue with silver shimmer. This is my 2nd favorite out of the Awaken collection. I used 3 thin coats. Zoya Vega from the Magical collection is on my ring finger.
Dillon: Dillon is a metallic mint green color with silver shimmer. I used 3 thin coats for Dillon below. I don't wear green's as much as I do aquas, but Dillon is really pretty.
Cole: In person Cole is more of a peachy color than straight up orange. It's a bit sheer, I used 3 coats and I could still see my nail line a bit. Monet looks especially nice over Cole.
Brooklyn: is a light metallic gold color. You only need two coats to make it opaque but it shows brush strokes and isn't very flattering on my pale skin. I think it would look nicer against the contrast of a darker skin tone, I think.
Monet is separate from the Awaken collection. It's an iridescent hex glitter topper. I think it's really pretty but it's hard to work with. The formula is very very thick, almost gluey. I found it bubbles and sinks into the cream polishes when dry, giving it a bumpy texture without topcoat. I'm going to try and add some polish thinner to my bottle to see if it will improve the formula.
(I added polish thinner to Monet and it definitely helped!)
I wanted to compare it against another iridescent glitter I own. China Glaze, Make A Spectacle. They aren't exactly alike. Monet's glitter is hexagon shaped and MAS is round. Also MAS has smaller glitters.
Which colors are your favorites?
