@ZoyaNailPolish: Utra PixieDusts Review

✯ PR Sample ✯

I have the new Zoya Ulta PixieDusts for you today. Oswin, Noir, and Arianna.

So... how are the Ultra Pixiedusts, different from the regular, and magical PixieDusts? The original Pixiedusts have a finer texture more like sand. Magical has bigger glitter, and added holographic glitters. The Ultra PixieDusts have larger chunkier glitters, but not holographic. They are all very similar looking in the bottle, due to the red glitter that is in each polish, but they are very different once on the nail.

Zoya Naturel & Naturel Deux: Ombre

✯ PR Sample's Mentioned ✯

One of my super sweet readers, shared this article with me a little while ago, and asked if I could try something like it, using the Zoya Naturel polishes. Since I'm in the mood for a nice palette cleanser I decided to try it out. 

For this ombre manicure I've used Zoya Taylor, Rue, Bridgette from the Naturel Collection, and Zoya Madeline from the Zoya Naturel Deux Collection. I also used NYC Matte Me Crazy, I think it looks so nice and feminine and delicate with the matte topcoat. 

Here's the shiny version, with Seche Vite topcoat.

Zoya: Taylor, Rue, Bridgette, Madeline.

Rouge Louboutin by Christian Louboutin

For my birthday my husband got me Rouge Louboutin, by Christian Louboutin. I know, I know... you're saying $50 for a nail polish?! I wanted it for the aesthetic appeal, and because it makes a great collectors piece for a nail polish blogger's collection. Would I buy any of the other colors when they come out? Probably not. I just wanted this one. Sometimes it's just fun to splurge, and especially for your birthday since it only comes once a year! Some girls like shoes... I like nail polish!

ILNP: Masquerade (H)

I picked up two colors from ILNP new fall collection. Masquerade (H), and Champagne Blush. (I'll show Champagne Blush another day). I've wanted the original Masquerade for awhile, but I never got around to picking it up. So I was really happy when ILNP released a holographic version with their fall collection.

Masquerade (H) is a multi chrome. It changes from Green, Pink, Red, Copper... so many pretty colors! This is 2 coats, plus Seche Vite topcoat.
