Mani Monday - Zoya Destiny Pixie Dust Nail Polish





Happy Monday, you stone foxes!  Hopefully this Monday finds you doing well after a good weekend.  :)  I hung out with my mom a bit and finished up season two of Downton Abbey!  I loved the last episode because it was set during Christmas, which is my favorite time of year.  Does anyone else start longing for that festive Christmas feeling in say...June?  I definitely have frequent visits from the holiday spirit fairy throughout the year and it always makes me feel excited, even when December is 7 months away.  Hey, it's never too early to start tucking away a few trinkets for the holidays, right?!  I've always wanted to be one of those people who has their shopping done in September like a boss.  It might actually happen this year!


Today's Mani Monday is the beautiful Zoya Destiny, one of the Pixie Dust formulas.  Destiny is a bold orange-red with a textured finish.  Two coats and we were fully opaque, though you can see some nail lines in the photos below due to the flash.  The textured finish is awesome; to me, it feels similar to a layer or two of a chunky hex glitter polish.  It's not smooth, but it's not rough or scratchy, either.

This is definitely my "gateway" polish into the world of textured lacquers.  I think the name is quite fitting, as it's now my Destiny to try other colors and textured formulas (like OPI's Liquid Sand).

Zoya polish is BIG 5 FREE (formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, toluene, camphor, and dibutyl phthalate {DBP}) and Vegan friendly.

If you're the type of person who "ain't got time" to toil away removing nail polish, don't let the texture finish scare you!  I expected a battle royale to unfold, replete with 82 cotton balls, tin foil, acetone, swearing, and an hour of my life gone missing.  I was quite delighted that this polish removed just as easily as regular formula polish!  Winning!
