zoya liberty (pixie dust)

it's time for another zoya pixie dust polish, this time, gorgeous liberty from the summer collection. you could already see  beatrix.

zoya describes it as a "blue sugary sparkle", which it really is! the shade is medium blue, just perfect, with silvery shimmer and the gorgeous textured finish. i would be really sorry if i missed it, because it really looks amazing. true pixie dust, if you ask me! 

i compared the newest photos with the ones made back in 2013, and, as expected, the texture factor became more flat. this is a known thing with textures, and i am showing old pictures first, followed by the recents.

ysl vintage plum (scandal)

in 2016, ysl launched a gorgeous fall duo in scandal collection. i've already shown fur green, and today it's time for vintage plum.

vintage plum is a classy but vampy dark red- purplish-plum shade. it may not be the most unique shade in the world, but it is one of those that fit every skin tone.

as usual, the formula is impeccable and  it is really easy to apply it.

a england wuthering heights (to emily bronte)

after showing let me in a while ago, it is time for another gem from a england's to emily bronte collection, wuthering heights.


it is described as "soft medium grey holo wrapping multiple reflections the setting of the novel: a dark, windy, stormy place". it is such a flawless shade, a medium grey with purple undertones and soft holo finish. i know it is summer now, but it is such a perfect sweater shade.

as expected, formula is amazing and smooth.

essie midnight cami (cuddle with color)

essie midnite cami from cuddle with color collection is my first essie ever.



i got it as a gift back in the day from one wonderful nail polish addict. she obviously knew what to gift me, since she chose the color that is described as "a shimmering deep twilight blue".

the brush is similar to the china glaze's, or should i say, thin :) i prefer wider brushes, but the formula is good so i had little problems. shimmer is quite discreet and visible only in strong light.
