Cult Nails Quench and Cult Nails Blaze

I posted a teaser on my Facebook page and on my Instagram @mommydoeshernails that my Cult Nails haul had arrived! Four Cult beauties, and I'll be showing you two of them today.

For your viewing pleasure I give you Cult Nails Quench and Cult Nails Blaze:


Quench is a delicious red with a slight jelly-like formula. It is a dream come true. This is two coats and no top coat in direct light. This will definitely be my go to red.

Blaze is a mixture of gold and copper micro-glitters packed into a clear base. I have a serious love affair with micro-glitters. I just love how dense and sparkly this is. Pictured is three, thin coats and no top coat in direct light.



Now for a little added pizzazz! You know me, I can't just leave well enough alone.


The accent nail has a portion of the Pur-lisse tattoos from my Boxycharm I posted about yesterday. I love the look so much I've had to put off swatches of the second two Cult Nails polishes I got till tomorrow. Everyone have a good one, and be sure to pop over to Cult Nails before she closes up shop.

Cult Nails Iconic and good-bye

So in my last post I mentioned that Cult Nails is liquidating. I thought I might share with you one of my favorites and let you know that, as of a little bit ago, it was still up on her site and 60% off!

This beauty is definitely a delicate one. I have this tendency towards reds lately. Apparently. At any rate Iconic is a wine or burgundy toned red with a very subtle golden shimmer and iridescent flakes running through it.




I love this on it's own, but I couldn't help but mess with it...just a little.


By the time I got the Julep Sienna suran wrap accent on them the lighting was starting to go so this is a lot colder toned then it was in real life, but I still loved this.

I don't know how much longer she will have her shop open, but she is good for the orders put in. There might be a bit of a shipping delay since she's gotten such a huge volume of orders, but check out what she still has in stock.

I know indies come and go, but I really never expected this one to. She had won awards and was really growing. It's just crazy to me that it's happening. I can't wait to share my haul that should be here in the next few weeks.

Cult Nails Toxic Seaweed+Polished Components

So you saw yesterday's epic nail mail (happy, happy, happy!) I give you Toxic Seaweed by Cult Nails:

Oh the ring finger. That's the challenge for PaA this week. It's a holo topper from Polished Components called Earth's Day. I just love the subtle holo effect. I did the accent finger on the other hand in Fire's Day and I love both effects:
I apologize for the owie. Now for photo overload!!!



 I had to wait till today to get a close up shot - this polish is so packed with glitter in a glowey jelly base that I needed to wait till less light if you can believe that!
This is three coats to obtain full opacity. Also this polish is sadly discontinued as it was a limited edition but she does have a new LE called Seduction which is like the purple cousin to Clairvoyant. I plan to swatch out my other two new gorgeous polishes later this week. Until tomorrow (hubby's picks!)

Nail Mail: Cult Nails!

Ever since I saw this line last year I knew I wouldn't feel complete without owning Cult Nails. I waited on Clairvoyant telling myself I would get it on the next shipment...then the news came in. No more could be created! This lemming will probably never be resolved sadly enough so when I saw Toxic Seaweed I knew I had to order it when the five dollar sale came around regardless of price. That's precisely what I did:
My burritos were nestled in cotton balls - isn't that so cute?? My spring surprise came this way too - I love this idea!!
The gorgeous burritos are each neatly labeled with love and care. What an amazing company!
Oh my word aren't they amazing?! From left to right we have Toxic Seaweed (no longer available so thank God I went for it despite being full priced), Captivated, and Iconic. Iconic is a little unlike me but it was the first Cult Nails polish I saw that I wanted. Swatches of Toxic Seaweed coming tomorrow!
