Glam Polish Pixie Dust Collection - Swatches & Review


Happy Friday everyone!  I hope this week has treated you all well.  Today I have the latest collection of polishes from Glam Polish.  It's been a while since I have had any Glam Polish's on my blog and I am excited to have the Pixie Dust Collection.  This collection has ten polishes in total and has a range of finishes and shades.  Before I dive into my swatches and review I thought I should give you the heads up that this post is quite picture heavy!  You have been warned.  Right, onto the swatches!


A Girl Worth Fighting For is a silver holo with multichrome flakies, ultra holo glitter and unicorn shimmer.  I think this is a really pretty polish.  I did find it a little sheer on the first coat, however it does build up nicely on the second.  If you have shorter nails then you can do two coats, however I needed three coats.

Cinderelly, Cinderelly is a sky blue crelly with iridescent flakes, unicorn shimmer and fine holo microglitter.  This is another pretty shade.  It is easy to work with but is on the sheer side.  I used three coats for my swatch.

Faith, Trust And A Little Bit Of Pixie Dust is a violet jelly with iridescent flakies, unicorn shimmer, ultra holo glitter and fine holo microglitter.  I feel like I am stuck on repeat with my comments about these polishes but this is also a really pretty polish and again it is quite sheer.  I used three coats for my swatch, but this one is still quite see through at the tips in direct light.

I Just Can't Wait To Be King is a green-purple-red multichrome with iridescent flakes and ultra holo glitter.  Big fan of this one.  It has a great shift and it applies well.  It is quite on the sheer side though.  My swatch shows three coats.

Once Upon A Dream is a purple-red-gold-green multichrome with unicorn shimmer and ultra holo glitter.   I like this one although it doesn't shift through the colours as well as I would like.  The formula is easy to use and is opaque in three coats.

Part Of Your World is a seafoam with iridescent flakies, unicorn shimmer, ultra holo glitter and fine holo microglitter.  This one is a stunner colour but I am so disappointed with how sheer it is.  This one is definitely more of a topper than a polish to wear alone.  My swatch shows four coats.

Tale As Old As Time is a pink jelly with iridescent flakies, unicorn shimmer, ultra holo glitter and fine holo microglitter.  Like with Part Of Your World, I think this polish should be a topper.  It's really sheer and took me four coats to build it up.  The colour is gorgeous though!

Wish Upon A Star is a violet-blue-red multichrome with iridescent flakes and ultra holo glitter.  This one is stunning!  It has such a great shift to it.  This one does apply quite sheer on the first coat, however does build up nicely on the second coat.  For me I found two coats was a little too see through at the tips for me so I added a third coat.

You Can Fly! is rose gold holo with ultra holo glitter and unicorn shimmer.  This one is such a pretty colour.  Again, I did find this one quite sheer.  I used three coats for my swatch.

Zero To Hero is a grey crelly with rainbow multichrome flakies, ultra holo glitter, unicorn shimmer and a hint of holo.  Now this is an interesting shade.  I used two coats for my swatch, however I do question if I should have done a third coat.

Overall, I quite like this collection.  There is definitely a good mix of colours and finishes.  I did find each of the polishes to be on the sheer side, which was quite surprising especially for the darker shades.  I would have expected those to be completely opaque in two coats maximum.  My personal favourites are A Girl Worth Fighting For, Faith, Trust And A Little Bit Of Pixie Dust, Tale As Old As Time, Wish Upon A Star and I Just Can't Wait To Be King.

The Pixie Dust Collection will be available from Glam Polish on Friday August 3rd at 2pm EST and Saturday August 4th at 4am AEST.
