Hello Everyone!
Today's post features my swatches of one of Zoya's fall 2013 collections, the PixieDust collection. I hope you aren't tired of textured polishes yet because today I'm excited to share with you this gorgeous colors.

Zoya PixieDust Application:
For BEST RESULTS apply 1-3 (for full coverage) thin coats of polish. Allow product to dry completely for full effect. No base coat and top coat required. Zoya Get Even base coat can be used if desired.

            (The PixieDust require no basecoat or topcoat, and that's how I swatch them.)

Tomoko- can be best described as a romantic champagne silver with a matte, textured, sparkling metal finish.

Chita- can be best described as a forest green in a matte, textured, sparkling finish.

Sunshine- can be best described as a "van gosh" navy blue in a matte, textured, sparkling finish.
