Happy Friday!

Today's post is the new Essie collection for spring 2015.

This collection celebrates the fresh perspectives and energetic nature of the spring season.

It is also the first collaboration with designer Rebecca Minkoff who is joining Essie as a global color designer.

I wish that Essie would come out with more spring-ish colors. Two of these, although beautiful colors, does not scream SPRING to me, you'll know which ones :-)

Let's get to them... I took different shots of many colors because some were really hard to capture the true color.

First up is Petal Pushers a slate grey and to me with a blue undertone. Beautiful color, a bit darker than my photo. Formula was really good, too good. Two coats plus top coat.Essie Petal Pushers

Milani| Fierce Foil Nail Lacquer

Hello loves!

I know, I know... I am on Milani roll this week. They sent me a whole lot of new things for Spring 2015 to review/swatch that its impossible to move on to something else, but I am not complaining, not at all!

Today's post is about nail polishes. Milani released six new polishes for their Fierce Foil line. I have to be honest, I am not the biggest fan of polishes that have flecks, seriously. Once I tried these on my nails, I was done, and I'm in love.

The following is an insert from Milani's press release note:

“Nothing like genuine gold flecks – twirling, swirling, luminescent sparkles - to take lacquer shine to the next level. For a multidimensional effect foil shine that only looks like you spent hours at the nail salon, paint on one of these six high-impact, trend-driven shades. Named for famous Italian cities, they span the color spectrum from the pearly-white, beachy Sardinia to the cobalt blue Venice. While it goes on sheer, the gold-formula has real staying power. These hip lacquers were built to last.”

Zoya| Naturel Satins

Hello and Happy Friday!

It has been a crazy week, many new cool things to swatch/review over here, but I am not complaining.

Zoya has released six new neutral nail polishes, very wearable, low sheen, with a chic satin finish.

Once these are completely dry, the look of these are so delicate and honestly I could not stop staring. I usually wear one for at least a day, not wearing gloves or anything while doing house chores, and let me tell you, it stood strong.

These polishes are not intended to be worn with a top coat, I mean who would want to add sheen to these?

I achieved full coverage with two coats for each, unless otherwise noted on the description for each color.

On to the swatches...IMG_3491

Essie|Cashmere Matte 2015 Collection

Hello Again lovelies!

I may be in a roll the next couple of days as the year has started very busy for me! YAY! for that. ;-)

I have the new Essie Cashmere Matte collection, which was sold out on their website, and I was going crazy.

Essie describe this collection "with a satin-matte texture and a subtle but spellbinding micro-iridescent finish" it has a soft matte finish and with matte polishes is better if used without top coat. I applied three coats for all colors to get full opacity. it is better to wait a minute or two in between coats to dry. A great thing about these is that they dry quick and they feel so soft after dried, like touching cashmere LOVE!Essie Cashmere Matte

Zoya Matte Velvet Swatches & Giveaway

Hello again!

I am certainly on a roll today with this second post today.

Back in November 2013 I did my second post and it was for the matte velvet from Zoya, back then it was only four., and let's be honest my photos were bad, but I am proud of how much I have improved :-)

This year Zoya has re-released them plus two new ones (are they?) giving a total of six matte velvet polishes.IMG_4303

These type of polishes are not be worn with a base coat or any kind of top coat (unless you decide to). And due to the unique matte formulation, color is not long-wearing as a traditional nail color.

Let's get to the fun...and a surprise giveaway at the end...

Swatches: Bonita Nail Polish Fall 2014

Hello!

Today I have a quick post on swatches for the new Bonita Fall collection.

All of these polishes have shimmer on them and varies from one coaters to just two.

Bonita's colors can be found at Rite Aid and the price is not more than $3.49 per polish, sometimes can even be a bit less.

If you don't have a Rite Aid close by you can also find them on the Bonita's website but they only ship within the USA I think.

let's get the swatches on...

Zoya Ultra PixieDust

Good afternoon loves!

Today I have a quick and very textured post to share. Zoya has released a new trio of Pixie Dust, three shades featuring both fine macro and mega hex particles for tone on tone 3D effects.

To apply these no basecoat or top coat is recommended and keep in mind that they dry matte, and although textured polishes are really a pain to remove, Zoya has provide an easy tutorial on how to remove it here: how to remove.

First up is Oswin, a true red textured pixiedust with crimson mega hex particles. This is two coats. On the second photo I show how it would look if a top coat is applied.Zoya Oswin

Zoya's Entice & Ignite Fall 2014 Collections' Swatches

Good afternoon loves!

It’s been a crazy week, sort of. I was called to work for a couple of days to the office in NY, while out, received these two collections, I was anxious to get back home to swatch them, but when I got back, life and household stuff took most of my time.

Anyway, the wait is over, at least for me it is :-)

I will keep this post short as I have many, many photos (12 polishes in total) to share but I won’t write much. I’ll use Zoya’s definitions of each color followed by my very short opinion ;-)

So here we go...
