Zoya Holiday 2016 Enchanted Collection Swatches and Reviews Part II and Your First Look at the Naturel 3 Collection

*press samples*


Hi guys! I just started watching Amazon's The Man in the High Castle last night and I've already been sucked in. The story takes place in America in 1962. The catch? We happened to lose WW2 and Nazi Germany owns part of the US, Japan the other. Interesting, right? Tonight I have the second half of the Zoya Enchanted Collection with 1 PixieDust and 2 shimmers. Oh, and my Zoya Black Friday order has shipped and should arrive Friday or Saturday (probably Saturday with how slow shipping seems to be getting). Shall we get started?

Zoya Holiday 2016 Enchanted Collection Swatches and Reviews Part I

*press samples*


Hi guys! It was a manic Monday, but that's how most of them are at my newish job. I had a great weekend because I was in our local holiday parade with my husband and Scraggles the dog. Scraggles' daycare had a float and they had the daycare dogs walk together through the streets. Anyway, tonight I have the first 3 polishes from Zoya's Holiday Enchanted Collection. This was released last month and features 4 PixieDust polishes and 2 shimmers. Without further ado, let's do this!

Right on the Nail ~ Zoya Summer 2016 Seashells Collection Swatches and Reviews Part II

*press samples*

Hi guys! The week is flying by, right? And I can't tell you how excited I am about the long weekend with Memorial Day coming up. Oh, and I still haven't seen who won Dancing With the Stars, but so far I haven't been spoiled. Tonight I'll be finishing up the Seashells Collection, and next week will feature the Sunsets (cremes) Collection. Follow me after the break for more pictures and my thoughts!

Right on the Nail ~ Zoya Summer 2016 Seashells Collection Swatches and Reviews Part I

*press samples*

Hi guys! It's a little sad that I'm so excited for the finale of Dancing with the Stars AND the Bachelorette premiere tonight! Anyone else but me watching? I'm doubly excited about reviewing the latest Zoya collections coming at you for this summer season. There are 2 separate collections (the Seashells and Sunsets, respectively) for the summer and I have both of them to review for you. The Seashells collection reintroduces the famous Pixiedust formula that Zoya hasn't done lately while the Sunsets feature bright cremes. I'll be reviewing the first 3 colors of the Seashells Collection tonight, so shall we get started?

Right on the Nail ~ Zoya Holiday/Winter 2014 Wishes Collection Swatches and Reviews Part I: The Magical PixieDusts

*press samples*



Zoya Imogen (2 coats and no topcoat)

Imogen is a black base with tons of holographic glitter. The glitter stands out the most in this one and makes it my favorite of the three. 



Zoya Nori (2 coats and no topcoat)

Nori is the perfect blue for this winter season. Now these are the types of colors I was looking for in the last collection of Magical PixieDusts! 



 Zoya Thea (2 coats and no topcoat)

Lastly, we have Thea which is a deepened purple with holographic glitter. 

This winter, Zoya has you covered with 6 new polishes for you to drool over. Three of them are Magical PixieDusts which I will show today, while the other three are cremes or shimmers that all coordinate with the PixieDusts. All of them have a jelly base with tons of different sized holographic glitter. I was impressed with the formula as well since they only needed 2 easy coats. They aren't completely matte, as you can tell by the bit of glare from the light, but they are quite textured. Out of the three, I seem a bit Bah Humbug by saying Imogen is my favorite, but it is. All of them are great choices, though.

You can purchase these now for $10, while the creme and shimmers I'll show tomorrow are $9. They also have a sale going on today where certain collections are buy 1 get 1 free. You can find more information here. Stay up-to-date with all things Zoya (often including giveaways and sales!) on Twitter or Facebook.

Zoya Fall 2014 Ultra PixieDust Collection Swatch and Review: Arianna



Zoya Arianna (2 coats)

*press sample*

Zoya has just released 3 new polishes called Ultra PixieDusts which is between the Magical and regular PixieDusts. The Magical PixieDusts have the holographic hexagonal glitter while the regular ones don't. The Ultra PixiDusts have hexagonal glitter, but it's not holographic. Hopefully that helps explain these a little bit better. Unfortunately, I think all of the colors released are a little bit too close together. Up first I have Arianna which is a matte texture with hexagonal and small glitter in a deep red wine base. Zoya warned me that these must be applied without a basecoat and to make sure you take a few minutes between each layer to let it dry, otherwise you will not get a completely matte finish. Fun, or are you done with textures?

You can purchase these polishes right now on the Zoya website for $10 each or at select salons or Ulta stores. Stay up-to-date with all things Zoya (often including giveaways and sales!) on Twitter or Facebook.
