Zoya: Chyna Pixie Dust

My love affair with Zoya started when I was in pharmacy school. I could often been seen stepping out of morning rounds in the trauma unit  to chat with the nurses about polish. Somehow I still made an A- on that rotation.

Zoya is one of my favorite brands for multiple reasons, one being the amazing formula. When I saw the “Pixie Dust” collection I almost fainted. No joke. Believe it or not I just tried my first ever Zoya Pixie Dust polish in Chyna.

Image

Chyna is a dark red with small red glitter. It dries matte, but still sparkles and is slightly textured. I am IN LOVE WITH IT. What is about to follow is an unreasonable amount of swatch photos. I couldn’t choose just 2-3 pics so I just put them all up.

You may notice my poor index finger is a nub. This was the result of an unfortunate accident in which I do not remember. I couldn’t bare to cut the rest down.

Also for Ipsters…don’t forget about this month’s promo for Zoya Nail polish which can be found in this month’s bag!! This code works for all Zoya polishes, even the pixie dust polishes!

Nail Mail and my first ever INDIE POLISH!!

Sang in the tune of Blue’s Clues Mail song….ahem…

Here’s the mail it never fails!

It makes me want to paint my nails,

When it comes I wanna wail…..MAIL!!!

So I got some nail polish in the mail today that I wanted to share with you. I do have a slight nail polish addiction. But I’m down with the sickness…bahahaha just a little early 2000s song reference. Anyway on with the pics!

ZOYA Earth Day Nail Polish Exchange is ON!!

Image

 

 

Basically, you can get 6-24 nail polishes for 50% off excluding the pixie polishes (bummer). You can send back the same amount of polishes you bought, or none at all, I don’t think they really keep track of it. I took advantage of this last year, but I just can’t justify it this year, I have gotten SOOO much nail polish lately, including the entire Zoya Pixie summer collection. I copied this from Zoya’s blog:

 

“The Zoya Nail Polish Exchange* is BACK for Earth Day 2013!

 

Once again, Zoya is helping you do a little spring cleaning with the return of the Earth Day Zoya Nail Polish Exchange* for 2013. Clean out your nail polish wardrobe and get rid of old nail polish that may not be BIG5FREE(Free of Formaldehyde, Formaldehyde Resin, Toluene, DBP and Camphor) and exchange it for a greener alternative – long lasting, award winning, healthy ZOYA Nail Polish Bottles!

  1. Go to Zoya.com and pick out the polishes you would like (Note: ALL Zoya PixieDust Collection shades are excluded) and add them to your cart. You must select at least 6 bottles and no more than 24 bottles of polish (Salon accounts minimum 12 maximum 48 bottles).
  2. Apply the code: ZOYAEARTH2013
  3. Your order value will be adjusted to reflect a 50% discount (we use these funds to properly dispose of the old nail polish).
  4. SUBMIT your order!

Then Zoya will ship out your NEW polish! YEAH! 
Once you get your order, here is where the exchanging* happens…

  1. Ship back the equivalent number of bottles you received to the return address below (ie. If you got 6 bottles of Zoya – you would send us 6 NON-ZOYA polishes). Please check with your carrier on the proper way to ship nail polish.
  2. Include a copy of your order.  

To clarify the exchange: You do not have to send us the exact amount of bottles that you are ordering. You can send any quantity up to that amount. You can also donate. If you decide you don’t want to do either, it’s ok “Offer is not contingent on customer returning polish” – we will still love you and will ship the Zoya polishes… we’ll just send you on a guilt trip for a while 🙂

Ship Your Old Nail Polish To:
 

Art of Beauty, Inc.
c/o Polish Exchange
5060 Taylor Rd, Unit D
Cleveland, Ohio, 44128, USA

Once we receive your polish we do the rest! It’s that simple!


IMPORTANT!

The bottles you send in cannot be Zoya, Qtica or Nocti polishes (but they can be any other brand).

We are using the honor code here folks! We want to make sure you get your Zoya Nail Polish! We send you the polish first then you send your old polish back to us! If you do choose to send us your old polish we promise to properly dispose of it according to EPA guidelines. This offer is only good for 1 week so hurry – Don’t Wait!”

Will you be taking advantage of this great offer??
