All of these PixieDust shades have a great 2-3 coat formula for full coverage. Application is similar to a standard polish and they all have great wear time. They are dry to the touch in 10-15 minutes, but do take longer to be fully dry and matte. I gave each of them about an hour to dry before photographing. Because these are loaded with flakies/glitter, removal of these is similar or slightly better than a glitter. None of them really required use of the foil removal method...
Before I get started with the swatches, I have to warn you that the video card in my computer is acting funny. I am seeing these colors properly and I hope you are too. Please let me know if they look off to you...
Solange
A bright yellow gold loaded with gold sparkle. I used two coats for the swatches with good coverage, although a third coat probably wouldn't have hurt...

Beatrix
A bright orange with gold sparkle. It is a really fun summer shade that has me thinking of juicy citrus fruit. This is three coats for full coverage...

Destiny
A medium reddish orange packed with gold flakes. This seems maybe a touch lighter than OPI Jinx, but very similar. I absolutely love this shade. I used three coats for full coverage...

Stevie
A bright lilac with silver glitter. This is a gorgeous shade and maybe you remember it from yesterday's stamped manicure. Only two coats for full coverage...

Liberty
A bright primary blue shade with lighter blue glitter. I used two coats for the swatches for good coverage. The nail line is not as visible in real life as it is in the photos. Even if it wasn't named Liberty, this one screams that it would be perfect for a 4th of July mani. This one does stain the nails, so don't skip on the basecoat as it does help a bit...

I love how you provide a close up and swatch details. Awesome work! I don't own any of these and probably won't because I don't like the texture.
