Zoya PixieDust are worn without a base coat or top coat to achieve the look that it meant for. There is a 3-6 minute drying period and removal is a breeze.

Zoya Solange:

A gold metal foil sparkle featuring a Zoya EXCLUSIVE GOLD PIGMENT. Very full coverage and a perfect formula. 

Zoya Beatrix

Beatrix is described as a tangerine metal sparkle. Beautiful eye catching color and sparkle in this one!

Zoya Destiny

Destiny can be best described as a coral metal sparkle. Lots of shimmer with a slight yellow dust in it. Stunning and one of my favorite shades in this collection.

Zoya Miranda

Miranda is a rose sparkle. VERY shimmery with a slight silver dust twinkle to it if you turn your hand the right way. Definitely #2 in my list of favorites this collection!

Zoya Stevie

A violet almost pastel PixieDust. Ms. Stevie comes in a #3 favorite!

Zoya Liberty

 A blue sugary sparkle. Reminds me of dipping blueberries on sugar as a child, yum!  

I LOVE each and every one of them. Each polishes formula was prefect with zero clumpiness. Dry time was 3-6 minutes and removal is a breeze. The texture is great, not too rough.

Zoya Nail Polish and Treatments PixieDust Collection

Hello to all of my wonderful polish lovers,

Today I have a swatch and review of the very beautiful Zoya PixieDust collection. We have seen our fair share of textured polishes and I think you will love this collection as much as I do!

I was slightly worried about the dry time and removal of this type of polish finish. Let me tell you, I had nothing to worry about. There is a 3-6 minute drying period and removal is a breeze. No where near the difficulty like most glitter infused polishes. Formula is great, all shades dry matte and I am wearing 3 coats in each photo. I was very pleased!

On to the beauty!

Zoya Chyna:

A rich red packed with sparkle. Chyna is my favorite color in the collection. Unique and vibrant. Catches your eye and the sparkle is amazing.



Zoya Dahlia:

A black charcoal shade. Reminds me of pavement and is another unique shade to me. The PixieDust really shines in the dark base color.




Zoya Godiva:

A beige/nude shade with a fine silver PixieDist shimmer. Reminds me of sandy beaches. Godiva is an elegant color that can be worn year round. That to me is a bonus!


Zoya London:

A gray base packed with silver PixieDust shimmer. The shimmer really pops in this shade. This shade goes well with my skin tone and may be another favorite of mine in this collection.




Zoya Vespa:

A light, almost minty green. Vespa is packed with fine silver PixieDust shimmer. A perfect shade for Spring!





This entire collection is absolutely stunning. By far my favorite textured collection I have tried!! There is no way possible to choose a favorite. I sincerely LOVE each and every one of them. Each polishes formula was prefect with zero clumpiness. Dry time was 3-6 minutes and removal is a breeze. The texture is great, not too rough. Doesn't catch onto things like you may have thought. A pleasant surprise!  All 6 colors were swatched with 3 flawless coats.

Hi!!!!! It's my full face :-) Wearing eyeshadow as seen above and Tint It! (This is the darkest shade)

I am extremely impressed with all the Essence products. I receive many compliments with this look. I just so happened to wear it Saturday. With a long day of doing manicures and pedicures at school, my make up was still flawless. A fellow student had commented and had asked how I get my make up to stay so long. I let her know the products I had used a assured her I didn't have any other special tricks. 2 thumbs up for Essence. I will be hitting my local store for more products in different colors.
