Zoya: Vespa

Good morning everyone. I hope you're all doing well today. Today I have another Pixie Dust from Zoya to share with you. This one is called Vespa; it's mint green with a sugared sparkle.

Like the other Pixie Dust colors, this is a textured matte.  I used two coats for the results shown below and did not use a top coat. You don't want to use a top coat on these because you will lose the textured matte finish. If you're looking to change the look up a bit you can add the top coat, it certainly won't harm the polish, it will just look different. I have seen swatches that way and these polishes do look nice that way. Personally though, I think the matte textured finish makes these Pixie Dust polishes special.

I had no issues with application. This polish went on nicely and dried quickly, which was a concern with not using a top coat. I had no issues with streaking or balding and this was fully opaque in two coats. 

Like I mentioned yesterday, I am loving this new polish trend. What do you think of these polishes?

Pink Wednesday: OPI Liquid Sand in The Impossible

It's Wednesday and on Wednesdays we wear pink! Today's pink is a fun one. It's another of the Liquid Sand colors from OPI. This one is called The Impossible and it's a matte, textured, hot pink with holo sparkle and some stars!

I love the star shaped glitter in this one but unfortunately it's almost impossible (no pun intended) to get the star glitter out of the bottle and onto the nail. I was so disappointed in that! It just all sinks to the bottom and it's extremely difficult to get it onto the brush and apply it. What a bummer! You can see I was only able to apply one star, to my pinkie finger.

I used two coats for the opacity shown and had no issues with application  This dries nice and fast to that matte finish but it does take some more time to dry since you don't use a top coat. That's okay though, I am just spoiled by using Seche Vite. You can use Seche Vite on this if you want,  but you will lose the matte texture which is what makes the Liquid Sand polishes unique and beautiful, so I do not recommend that. 

Overall I love the idea of this one, with the beautiful stars but find it's aptly named The Impossible because it's impossible to fish them out and apply them to the nails. What a drag!
