Cult Nails Spontaneous

Last month I purchased Cult Nails, "Coco's Untamed Collection". The owner of Cult Nails (Maria) let her twelve year old daughter, Coco design her own collection (lucky girl)! I think she did a fabulous job and couldn't help ordering these the day they were released. First up is Spontaneous! 


 Spontaneous is a rich purple creme that's full of a fine purple shimmer. In some lights, the shimmer comes off a little pink which I think is very pretty.


The shimmer stays pretty muted. It comes out more in direct light but is never overwhelming. Being a glitter lover, I do wish it was more intense. 


 Formula is ok, it goes on thick and can get gooey if you don't work quickly. It needed two coats to get an even finish. It takes a little extra time to dry and dries a little rough. Never fear, a coat of Seche Vite will shine it up and smooth it out.

 Some polishes are worth the extra effort and this is definitely one of them.
Gorgeous! 


When all is said and done, it's a beautiful polish and I'd wear it again (after I put in some thinner). ;)

This is a limited edition polish. You can snag a bottle of your own, here

I do wonder if I got a funky bottle. I have about ten polishes from Cult Nails and this is the first one that had formula issues. Let me know if you own this and what you thought of it in the comments below. 

Thanks for reading!

Lush Lacquer Party Rockin - Picture Heavy

You're probably going to want to know where you can get this so here ya go: Lush Lacquer 

Are you back yet? Ok, this is one of my favorite glitter polishes of all time. I love the combination of colors, shapes and sizes of glitters, and the formula is perfection. Most of the glitters I have purchased from Etsy require you to fish for the glitter but not this baby. It is densely packed, the glitters are perfectly suspended, don't bleed or curl, and apply without a problem. I did use the dabbing method which is pretty standard for this type of polish in my experience so far. 

My swatches show two coats of Cult Nails Spontaneous (swatch coming soon), two coats of Lush Lacquer  Party Rockin, and two coats of Seche Vite (base coat OPI Ridge Filler)

Pictures were taken in sunlight

Have you ordered this yet? I may need a back up of this one. =)





Close up of bottle. I see various sizes and colors of hex glitter (turquoise, magenta, orange, yellow, and purple) and turquoise bar glitter. Base is clear. 

Love! 

What do you think? Are you as smitten as I am or is this not your thing? Let me know in the comments below!
