Hi everyone! The other day I managed to pick up a couple of the Zoya Pixie Dust polishes, Vespa and Nyx. I tried Vespa on first and I'm glad this is the texture polish line I chose to start with because it was instant love! Before I go on, let me just clarify that I bought these polishes myself. No freebies here :-)
I haven't been able to compare these with any other texture polishes but what I love about these is the sugary sparkle that they have even without any topcoat! I'm not sure if you can see it in my photos here but if you follow me on Instagram, I posted a couple of photos a few days ago of this polish under flash and you can see the sparkle a little better. I have not tried top coat because I've been enjoying it without too much!
I wanted to see what these would look like as part of nail art so I started with something that has become relatively easy for me....a gradient. To do this I knew I couldn't just slap regular polish on top of it so I mixed some Sinful Colors Last Chance, a dark green creme, with a little of Vespa on a piece of foil.
Then a dabbed a piece of makeup sponge into the mix and dabbed it on to the tips of my nails to create a gradient.
What I was very pleased to see is that that I didn't lose either the texture or the sparkle! I think the texture actually became a little more pronounced.
I love this because it screams spring to me. Looks like sparkly moss.... What do you guys think?

ReplyDeleteThank you!
ReplyDeleteOh my, this looks so freaking awesome! I love the gradient you did, that was great choice. These Zoya polishes are truly stunning <3 Love the texture and sparkle *-* And how is it with removal?
ReplyDeleteThank you! The removal is not bad. I did it the same way I would glitter, that is by soaking a little piece of cotton with remover and placing it on my nail and wrapping a piece of foil on it. A few minutes later, it comes right off!
ReplyDeleteI see, thanks^^
