Hump Day Holo: Zoya Mira

I've already gushed over how much I love Zoya Mira, but if you adore the purple creme as much as I do, you're going to die when you see it holo-fied.

So no more mystery... CHECK IT OUT!

And as if that wasn't gorgeous enough, Macro A:

So what do you ladies think of the holo-fied Mira?

Swatch and Review: Deborah Lippmann Razzle Dazzle

I have never owned a single Deborah Lippmann polish before. To pay $18 for a REALLY small bottle is really hard to justify on a college budget. Sure, I have splurged on Nails Inc. magnetic shades, but those have more polish in them and well... they're magnetic.

I was fortunate enough to snag Razzle Dazzle for half the price on a blog sale recently and have been waiting for the perfect time to rock it. And that time is now. (Though I'm currently wearing it holo-fied)

Razzle Dazzle is a cranberry jelly with suspended fuschia glitter that evens out rather nicely. I'd go so far as to say it is glass-flecked, since there is no texture even after a single coat on the nail. Three coats built up entirely opaque.

 

Seriously, I LOVE it. (Though I'm still lemming for Across the Universe and cannot find its Essence dupe ANYWHERE.)

Do any of you ladies own DL polishes? If so, which ones and which is your fave?

Day 27: Zoya America

For Day 27 and Day 28, we're going to do something a little special and feature two lovely ladies I have become friends with in the blogosphere. Don't worry, for 29 and 30, we'll go back to our regular programming and there will still be a question to answer that will count as a vote.

Today, the lovely lady behind The Nail Files will be our guest editor. And so, I turn the blog over to her...

When I was asked to write a guest post for Princess Polish's "30 Days of Zoya," the first color that popped into my head was America (La Di Di Collection, summer 2009)! This is my all time favorite Zoya and I don't think she gets enough credit. We all know Carmen (currently in Time Square) was Zoya's first color and Sooki is "everyone's favorite".. blah blah blah.. America is amazing and needs more love!!

America is best described on the Zoya website as, "Bright, bold, medium retro tomato-red creme. This unique red screams retro pin-up girl glamour."

I'm very hesitant to try/buy red polish. I have a cool and very light skintone, therefore most reds looks horrible on me (at least I think).. but America is wonderful! Aside from the gorgeous red color, the formula is phenomenal. It took nearly one (yes, ONE) coat for full opacity, but I used two just to be safe.

America is hands down my favorite Zoya! The formula is AWESOME and the bright red is so eye catching, you and your nails will surely get noticed!

So do you agree, ladies? Is America your favorite Zoya red? If not, comment with what is!

A Belated Hump Day Holo: Deborah Lippmann Razzle Dazzle

Sorry for the delay, everyone! Between school and spring allergies finally knocking on my door, it has been a rough 36 hours. But never fear... the holo is here.

 

 This holo-fied color is Deborah Lippmann's Razzle Dazzle, a smooth cranberry jelly with fuschia glitter. Be on the lookout for a full review tomorrow. A coat of OPI DS Shimmer turns this shade into a linear bordeaux holo that is to die for!

So what do you think of this holofied shade? Get ready to go purple next week!
