Personal Collection
*This product is Cruelty Free 


I've been holding out on you! I've worn this polish a few times, but I hadn't gotten around to showing you yet and that's just shameful because it is SO pretty. You can see by the length of my nails here that it was a while back. Oops!


Cult Nails Let's Get Dirty


Cult Nails Let's Get Dirty is part of the In the Garden Collection and it's a wax finish taupe polish with shimmer. No issues with formula or application at all. Two coats for full opacity and photos both with and without top coat.

Good evening! I'm back with MOAR POLISH! Two more polishes from the Cult Nails In the Garden Collection. This time it's a mixed review. A roller coaster with the highest high and a pretty low low.

Earlier I reviewed Cult Nails Morning Glory from the In the Garden Collection and this time I have Ay Poppy and Kiss My Rose Bush for you.

First up, Ay Poppy. This one ROCKED MY WORLD, seriously. Perfect formula and application. Two coats for full opacity and no top coat for the photos. Best. Orange. Ever.

Cult Nails Morning Glory and Some Easy Nail Art

Press Sample 
*This product is Cruelty Free 



Tonight I have one of the polishes from Cult Nails In the Garden Collection - Morning Glory.

Morning Glory is a deep violet/magenta polish that dries to a "wax" finish, The formula was creamy and easy and opaque in one coat! No issues to report other than it doesn't like to be over-manipulated, which is the case with most matte, wax or rubber finishes.


First, natural finish...

And a little fun...I used a dotting tool and Poshe top coat for the subtle dots.

With top coat...

And more fun with Cult Nails Kiss My Rose Bush, another from the In the Garden Collection, on the accent nail. I used a striping brush to "frame" the accent nail and stamped some flowers with a plain white creme in the middle. I also put a true matte top coat on so you can see the difference between the "wax" finish and the pure matte.

What do you think of this one? This is one of my favorite colors ever, so naturally I loved it. I actually liked it with the wax finish but my guy preferred it with top coat.

Cult Nails polishes are now being carried by Overall Beauty! You can visit Overall Beauty on Facebook as well to stay up-to-date on re-stocks and other information. They are also still available at the Cult Nails website and retail for $12.00.
