Cult Nails Annalicious and Captivated

Before I show you the rest of Cult Nail's Untamed Collection, I want to show you what Annalicious looks like with Captivated on top. I'm still using pictures that I took before my surgery since I'm not up to painting my nails yet. I hope to be able to swatch the rest of the Untamed Collection by Monday but I can't make any promises. =)

I already had Captivated in my stash but hadn't tried it on yet. When I swatched Annalicious, I knew that Captivated would be perfect with it.


Captivated has a bright coral base and a ton of gold and coral glitter. This is two coats of Captivated on top of three coats of Annalicious. 


Aren't they the perfect pair? 


Captivated is very easy to work with. It's a little thick because of how dense the glitter is. The thickness didn't bother me with this one. It applied evenly, the  glitter spread out perfectly, and it dried quickly. 

You can find Cult Nails polishes here. Annalicious is Limited Edition but Captivated is apart of the core line. 

What do you think? Do you prefer Annalicious alone or with extra bling? Let me know in the comments below.

Cult Nails Annalicious

I'm still not 100% so this will be a quick post. Annalicious is from Coco's Untamed Collection which you can get here. It is so bright, I had a hard time getting a good picture. It's not the polishes fault, I'm still learning how to use my "fancy camera." =) This is a bright orange red polish that is full of fine gold shimmer. The shimmer seems to be the same shimmer Deal With It has. 



The formula was very easy to work with. It was a little thin but not in a bad way. Just wipe off your brush a little before applying. It was opaque in two coats but I used three. Using three made the polish look a lot richer and got rid of the tiny bit of VNL (visible nail line) I had. 

This is a great summer polish, it would be a cute pedi color. That's probably what I will use it for. 

Thanks for reading!

Cult Nails Deal With It

When I ordered Coco's Untamed Collection from Cult Nails, this is the polish I thought I'd like the least. Don't get me wrong, I love green polish. I just normally gravitate to darker shades. As you may know, I'm not a fan of neons or anything too bright and this would fall into that category for me. I was very surprised when this ended up being my favorite from the collection. I liked how it looked with my skin tone (shocking). I think the intense gold shimmer is what did it for me. It gives this polish a warmer tone and sets it apart from other lime green polishes. By the way, the shimmer is absolutely crazy. You can see it inside and outside, just the way I like it. 


 The formula was very easy to work with. It went on smoothly and was opaque in two coats. It self leveled perfectly, didn't pool or get gooey, and dried quickly. 

It dried pretty shiny but I added Seche Vite for my top coat to protect it and give it an extra glossy look.

Isn't it gorgeous? I can't get over that gold shimmer. You can find this and other amazing polishes here

In non polish related news, I'm getting my gallbladder removed tomorrow. I have two fabulous bloggers lined up to guest post for the next two days and then I should be back. Enjoy their posts, send them some love, and I'll "see" you when I get back! 

Thanks for reading!
