Good afternoon everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend! Today’s post is going to be short and sweet because I am getting ready to head over to Georgia for an awesome Walking Dead adventure. Before I head out though I wanted to share my 52 Week Nail Challenge post. This past week was amethyst themed for all the February babies out there. I wanted to use another Pixie Dust from Zoya and while I love the polish, it didn’t give me the gem feeling I was looking for.
For my amethyst themed lacquer I went with Alice from Zoya. This is a lovely purple lacquer with the signature Pixie Dust finish. Alice doesn’t have the jelly like formula like some of the other shades and leans more towards creme base. In my photos I am wearing three thin coats of Alice.
So what do you guys think of my pick for amethyst? Not exactly what I wanted but a pretty lacquer either way! Thank you so much for stopping by today and I will be back tomorrow with more of my Walking Dead adventure! <3

You’re going on another Walking Dead adventure! Georgia is the place to be for this show, lol! What is it this time? I love this polish, definitely a nice birthstone Pick!!!
Nina says
I love the Walking Dead and going to hit up a few of their filming locations and have an amazing dinner with a friend.
Kristi V BeginNails says
I see what you mean. I feel like the other Pixies were more “bright?” and this seems a tad dusty/muted? I’m trying to figure out what is off. I do love the color though.
Nina says
It doesn’t have that jelly finish that some of the others have, I think that is what make them so bright and sparkle. Either way, I agree that is is a lovely color.
Carleen says
Love the shade. Can’t go wrong with sparkly purple!
Nina says
Agree!!! Give me all the sparkles!
Cindy says
It’s a pretty color. Is this polish textured?
Nina says
It is textured, but you can also smooth out with a good top coat. Great multi use lacquer.
Courtney says
This is such a gorgeous color.
Nina says
Agreed!
Nichole C says
I kinda like the faded blurple.

Me too!
Kathryne says
In love w/ this kind of purple!

It just seemed like the perfect time of year to break out this shade.
Jessica Scull says
One of the best Zoya shades! So pretty

Totally agree, and it is the perfect shade for Spring.

Ehmkay Nails says
I am trying to remember whether or not I have this cause it’s gorgeous
Nina says
Fingers crossed for you! It’s a stunner!
Yvette Price says
I really love Zoya’s Pixie Dust line, their colors are soo vibrant! Great Swatches.
Nina says
They are pretty amazing! I personally love the more jelly finish ones but even these are pretty.
Emily Draher says
I never really liked textured polishes, but the Zoya PixieDust shades were always so so gorgeous!
Nina says
Zoya’s are the only ones I’ve liked. I’ve tried various ones and none compare to the Pixie’s!
Polished Hippy says
I need to pull out some of my classic Pixie Dusts! I like the smoother ones.
Nina says
I love all the Pixie Dusts! I hope they bring some more shades out this summer!
My Nail Polish Obsession says
It’s pretty color but I prefer the matte finish pixies more.
Nina says
I like the color but agree, I wish it had more of a jelly finish like some of the others.
Natoya says
This purple is to die for! so vibrant and fabulous.
Nina says
It is certainly a good one for spring time!
The Jedi Wife says
This is really pretty! I don’t think I have this one and need to pick it up!
Nina says
It’s pretty amazing, you need it!
Katie Marie says
