Another very similar pair, Tallulah is a lighter shade than Tart, with a different shimmer particle, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, Tallulah also stamps.

Tart is so pretty, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, Tart also stamps. This does show brush strokes through the shimmer.

Sia by Zoya can be best described as a true, royal blue cream. 

These two are super similar, think theres only a shade or two difference.

Maren has a great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Maren also stamps well.

Sia is a tiny bit darker and more saturated, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one sweet coat, Sia also stamps well.

As my mum would say, a man on a galloping horse wouldnt be able to tell these two apart but as a collector I can tell (just!). Tomorrows post is even closer in colour.

Muse is gorgeous, I'm not the biggest fan of glitter but I do love this whole collection, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two coats. I did use a peel off basecoat with this today.

Oceane is stunning, it reminds me of looking into the ocean with that layered blue effect it has, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in two cats, Oceane also stamps, it was almost a one coater but I had a few bald spots. The blue staining is from Cecilia, who is very pigmented and I didnt even rub my hands this was from holding the remover pad in my hand.

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.

Alessia is outstanding, a delicious bright blue with silver sparkles, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, Alessia also stamps.

Gardner is stunning, a periwinkle blue with pink sparkles, great formula, no running or pooling and opaque in one coat, Gardner also stamps. I love the pink sparkles in Gardner this does dry dull so you'll want topcoat to make it sparkle.
