ellagee The Artist Collection Picks

Today I have my picks from the ellagee The Artist Collection to show you. This collection features five polishes inspired by Prince. I have two of the polishes, one is a microglitter and one is a holo.


First up is The Polish Formerly Known As Prince. This is a clear based polish with purple metallic and holo microglitter with some gold holographic microglitter in it as well. This is two coats of TPFKAP on it's own. It looked full coverage in real life, even though it looks like it isn't in the pictures. It was easy to work with and I got plenty of glitter on the brush without having to fish.

The other polish I picked up from this collection is The Purple One. This is a royal purple holographic polish with gold shimmer. This polish was super easy to work with. It had a great formula and went on smooth. This is two coats of The Purple One.

I really like both of these polishes. If I had to pick one, it would be The Purple One. It had such an excellent formula and the color is amazing! I also will be using ellagee's base and top coat in the upcoming weeks. I used them with these polishes and so far I am very impressed. I will do a post in a few weeks to let you know what I think, after I've had some time to test them out. The Artist Collection is available here. I'd love to hear what you think of these polishes and which one is your favorite in the comments down below!

Zoya Wishes 2014 Magical Pixie Dust

I have the three new Magical Pixie Dust polishes from Zoya to show you today.  These polishes are from the Zoya 2014 Wishes holiday collection,  There are three other polishes in this collection that I do not have to show you at this time. All three polishes have the same formula.  They have jelly bases and a ton of glitter. They also dry to a textured finish. All of these pictures show two coats of color with no top coat. The last picture in each set is a picture of the polish in the bottle.  I wanted to show you the magnificent shimmer and holographic glitter in these polishes.

Thea (L), Nori (M), Imogen (R)

The first polish I have to show you is Thea. Zoya describes this polish as "an amethyst polish with an orchid flash packed full of party ready holographic hex glitter." This color is probably my favorite out of the three that I have.




Up next is Nori, which Zoya describes as "a sapphire blue Magical Pixie Dust with holographic hex glitter perfect for any holiday festivity!"



Last, but certainly not least is Imogen.  Zoya describes Imogen as "a black crystal Magical Pixie Dust, with holographic hex glitter, the perfect compliment to any lighter shade or an accent to nail art."



I think these polishes are perfect for the holidays.  They give off a ton of sparkle and you can leave them with their original textured finish or you can top coat them.  I had no problems with the formula on any of these polishes.  All three polishes are available on Zoya's website here. What do you think of these polishes?  Are you a fan of textured polishes? I'd love to hear what you think.

Zoya Pixie Dust Halloween Manicure

I have a manicure on today that features Zoya Pixie Dust polishes.  These polishes are full of sparkle and dry matte.  They also dry with a bit of a texture.  If that is something that bothers you, it can be easily resolved by using a coat or two of top coat.
