Picture Polish - Demeter

Today I have a beautiful Picture Polish shade that they made in collaboration with Katie from Harlow & Co, an online store for nail polish based in Canada that ships internationally. Katie wanted to make a chocolate brown holographic shade and PP delivered with this luxe earthy scattered holo beauty that she named Demeter. This is two coats.

I forget how much I adore brown polishes. I have a lot of them I just don't get around to wearing that often, but I need to make sure I do. This polish has an excellent formula, very buttery on application and nicely opaque. You can buy Demeter online at Picture Polish's Australian website for AUS $10 or on Harlow & Co for $14.50.

Coral and Golden Sand

This mani was inspired by a fellow blogger, HeartNat. It is Essie Come Here from their 2013 resort collection with an accent of OPI Honey Ryder from the new Bond Girl collection on my ring finger. The gorgeous bright coral of Come Here is incredibly hot and I think it's perfect for sunny weather. I used two coats of the gorgeous creme. Honey Ryder has a liquid sand finish and is a sparkling mid-tone gold that is blingy and gritty in an awesome kind of way. Two coats as well.

The combination of gold and coral and the juxtaposition of the smooth and gritty textures is exciting and quite pleasing to my eye. I picked up the Essie at my local CVS for about $8 and the OPI was provided for my consideration, but I believe you can pick it up at Ulta and other salon locations for around $9. How do you like this pairing?

Cult Nails Dance All Night Collection Swatches and Review

The folks over at Cult Nails have put out a new collection for early summer called Dance All Night. The collection features three sumptuous opaque cremes and three blingy chunky glitters.

Press Sample

First is Faded, a slightly blue toned grey creme. This color is really gorgeous and right up my alley. I found the formula to be a tad thick on application, but I've heard others had no such issue so it might've just been me. This is two coats.

Next is Dance All Night, the polish the collection is named after. This has a clear base with lots of blue and green blingy hex glitters, some iridescent hexes, and lots of micro iridescent glitters. This was on the chunky and thicker side, making it harder to apply evenly. I took my time and this is the result of two coats of placing the glitters with the brush. I want to like it but it's not my favorite.

Here is Nakizzle's Shizzle, a lovely bright robin's egg blue creme. It's the quintessential Cult Nails creme formula, great flow-ability and awesome coverage. Two coats.

Over the blue I layered Walk of Shame, a fabulously decadent gold glitter. The light gold pieces are multi-sized and shaped and there is a hefty dollop of holo bits in it as well for extra wow. This is such a ME polish it's not even funny! One coat.

The last creme is Love At First Sight, a pink toned pastel purple creme. I don't usually gravitate to colors in this family but I really liked this on me. Another perfect formula, two coats. Very shiny :)

And the last glitter is called Center of Attention. I. LOVE. THIS. It's a rosey pink glitter mix like in Walk of Shame but over the purple some of the glitter looks almost duochromey to a lavender! I la la love it so much!! Two coats.

You can purchase this collection right now during the pre-sale event Cult Nails has on their website.  All polishes will be available for purchase individually, starting on Sunday, May 19th for $12 per bottle, including their new "wax" topcoat Wax That. What do you think of these beauties? Are you ready to Dance All Night with Cult Nails?
