Link is from the EASY NEON collection and can best be described as an electric, kelly green neon.

Jace is gorgeous, a new grass green, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats, probably could have gotten away with one if I hadnt dinged my hand, Jace also stamps.

Link is so pretty, very neon in your face, this has a good formula, no running or pooling, I did two coats, Link was supplied with the Z Wide brush, I changed out the caps on this collection to the black ones, I like the white but not on the Zoya Wall. Link does dry matte so I also popped topcoat on to show, if I was wearing this I'd likely do three coats.

Liberty by Zoya can be best described as a blue sugary sparkle in the exclusive Zoya PixieDust - Textured Textured, Matte, Sparkle formula.


I think I need to do some sort of turquoise/teal section between the blues and the greens because clearly Cecilia is not blue or green. Cecilia is a gorgeous colour though, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Cecilia also stamps.


Liberty, I adore, one of the very first pixie dusts I picked up, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, my swatch stick has faded a lot though!.


I got myself some new LED's for my room over the weekend from Amazon as the ones I was using were not good quality, my new ones are from Govee and can be controlled by google home. I still need to get a new cable tray for them, theyre only held on with blu-tak in a mashup to see what they'd look like.

Yummy by Zoya can be best described as a bright, cheerful light robin's egg blue in a milky creme finish.

Talia is another of Zoya's chameleon colours, in most lights it will look turquise but as you can see in the sunshine pic it looks green, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat on my shorties, longer nails might need two, Talia also stamps well.

Yummy is so pretty, I wouldnt say robins egg blue to me thats a much lighter colour, to me its a lighter almost turquoise blue, you can see that green undertone in the sunshine pic, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat on my shorties, longer nails may need two, Yummy also stamps well, as you can see from the pic, Yummy had separated while sitting on the shelf, a good shake and she was all good again.

I always wear two coats of basecoat to prevent polish staining my nails, however, nothing stops the yellow staining from actually wearing polish all the time.

I adore both of these, Mira is a gorgeous purple, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Mira also stamps very well.

I love looking at these two collections as you can see a very sinilar colour story going on, even though the collections are 4 years apart.

Some Obi pics from this morning, if I dont get out of bed in time I get jumped on by Mr Obi lol I did get woken up at 6 this morning by Ellie who wanted fuss and who then ended up under the covers until the alarm went off.
