Cult Nails Coco's Untamed Collection 2012 - Swatches and Review

I've not been pre-ordering the collections (of anything) lately - I've just been waiting until they were for sale individually. But the minute I saw Coco's Untamed Collection, I knew they all must be mine and I'm so glad.


Cult Nails Coco's Untamed Collection 2012

Coco is Maria's (founder of Cult Nails) daughter and WOW did she ever do a great job on these polishes. There are five in the collection and they're all wearable, interesting polishes.

Ready?

First up is Annalicious (Anna being Coco's best friend, I think) and it's a delicious, juicy orange-based red jelly packed full of what looks to be red, gold and orange shimmer (or maybe glass fleck?) It positively glows. I used 2 coats and NO top coat for these photos. Formula and application were great.

Number two on the list is Deal With It. This one is a lime green jelly shimmer polish full of gold shimmer. I used three coats of this one with no top coat. Formula was great and I had no issues with application.

Numero three is I Got Distracted. This one is a glitter polish in a blackened base with green glitter and holographic micro-glitter. Perfectly opaque in two coats. This one does need a top coat. First 2 photos are without top coat and the rest are with top coat. No formula or application issues at all.

The fourth polish is Spontaneous. This one is a aubergine/purple crelly-ish creme with violet purple micro-glitter. Opacity in 2 coats. No application or formula issues but you will need a top coat with this one as well. First photo is without top coat and the rest are with top coat.

And finally, Untamed, after which this collection was named. Untamed is a bubblegum pink jelly with what appears to be pink, silver and violet micro-glitter. I used 3 coats of this one to achieve opacity and no top coat for the photos. No application issues other than what jellies typically give me. Patience isn't one of my virtues. But it turned out lovely.
