Zoya Fall 2013 PixieDust Nail Polish Swatches & Review

As much as I love a glossy nail, the mesmerizing, glitter-packed PixieDust polishes drew me in like a magpie. And while my affection has waned some over the past couple months, it’s back in full force thanks to the new Zoya Fall 2013 PixieDust shades. Check them out!

However, Sally Hansen has released a second set of Sugar Coat shades that include some more “me” colors, including some glitter textures.
New Sally Hansen Sugar Coat
If you know me at all, you know that blue, purple and teal are so in my wheelhouse and that the sparkly texture polishes are my jam, so I had a lot of fun playing with these new colors. In fact, I came up with a layering combination so gorgeous that I dare even the texture haters to dismiss it.
