Zoya Awaken and Monet

Hola! Good evening and happy Friday!

When I first saw the press release for Zoya Awaken and Monet I was going crazy waiting to be able to buy them, when they finally were ready for preorder then it was on backorder for weeks, then I won a whole set of Awaken during the NYFW, how awesome is that! Yep, I went to Zoya and cancelled my order! Yay for Zoya! In case you have not noticed I am a Zoya Hoarder, I have about 67 polishes from them and I just started about four months ago. I think is crazy, but I love it. Now to the point, swatches! I will tell you that for all the Awaken Collection application was smooth and great, great formula! Monet on the other hand... I'll leave it for last. Enjoy!

First up is Brooklyn, my hometown :-) is a gold shimmer metallic, two easy and thin coats.

Zoya Magical Pixie 2014

Good evening!


Today I have swatches of the new Zoya's Magical Pixie. Oh my are they GORGEOUS!!


Magical Pixie


They really are, I am warning you! They are the same formula as the regular pixies just have more glitter and a little more beauty in them. I applied two coats for each one, great coverage and very easy to work with. None of these have top coat.

Zoya Naturel

Good evening!
Last night I was feeling all "natural" and what a best time to do it than using Zoya's polishes from the Naturel Collection and at the same time have an opportunity of winning some nice polishes. I didn't win, but I am so happy how these came out. I used Chantal, Rue & Brigitte.

I got the chevron vinyls from Linda follow the link for her instagram and there you will find all info. There are just perfect! Many to choose from.

Essie Resort 2014

Happy Friday!

Today I just received my order of the most recent release from Essie, Resort 2014.

At first I was a little uncertain of getting these four, as I have polishes that are very close to matching these. I am glad that I gave in and got them. They are actually different and unique in their own way.
