Today, I have the spring trio from Cult Nails, who collaborated with one of my blogging idols, Marta of Chit Chat Nails for the colors. The release of this set also marks the first stamping plate added to the Cult Nails line up. But first the polishes!
Cult Nails Evolution (It's A New Day trio)
Evolution is a sheer but buildable peach crelly. The color is flat out stunning. It is soft and subtle, but still remaining very trendy - my ideal peach. The formula was more difficult than I was expecting. The first coat was very streaky, almost like the pigment was separating from the base in a bad way. Either it had settled quite a bit (& needed a good shake) before it came to me or I got a bad bottle, because every other one coat pic I have seen looked impeccable. I used three coats for full opacity, giving ample dry time between coats. It did threaten to bubble on me a couple of times.
Cult Nails New Day (It's A New Day trio)
New Day is a soft pastel yellow cream. It falls perfectly into that bright yet pastel category that I am ever so found of. The formula was a little watery and was streaky on the first two coats. The third coat covered nicely.
Falling Hard is a cool toned pink cream. It's a pretty, but standard pink. It's a great shade if you are lacking a classic pink in your collection. Formula was good, a little on the thin side - which is standard for Cult polishes. Two coats for full coverage.
I was kind of let down by this collection, sure they are all beautiful colors, but I think it was hyped up a little too much, in the end. I did order it through pre-sale and managed a good deal, plus the stamp plate (which is awesome, full review on Sunday!), so it's not a total loss.
These have been added to the core line and sold individually. And right now it a great time to browse the Cult Nails catalog, there is a store wide 20% sale throughout the month of May! Just use the code "CELEBRATE" at check out.

The Cult Nails It's A New Day Trio polishes are available on line. Products retail between $14-$12 a piece.
