Cult Nails Stamping Plate

 

 

Hey guys :)

 

Today I'm sharing my first mani using the Cult Nails stamping plate.  I very nearly decided not to share this look, as I'm not exactly pleased with how it turned out - safe to say I need a LOT of stamping practice!!  But then I figured one of the main reasons I started this blog was to document my progress with nail art, and I can't do that without starting at the very beginning! 

 

I used Cult Nails Falling Hard as my base and stamped on the chevron design using Cult Nails Nevermore.  Topped with one coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast.

 

 

I do love black and pink together :)

 

So yeah....clearly need some practice with placement and filling in little gaps and just the whole stamping process in general lol!!  But I'm pleased that in a few months when I've honed my skills, I'll have a better picture of the progress I've made :)

Cult Nails - It's A New Day

 

Haiiii!!  So yeah I'm back!!  Last time around I kind of launched into this blogging thing without being properly prepared, and kind of scared myself out of it!!  But I'm back for good this time, and feeling a lot more positive about it :)

 

So for my (second) first post, I have the goooorgeous It's A New Day collection from Cult Nails to share with you!  All swatches are worn over a coat of Cult Nails Get It On base coat and are topped with a coat of Cult Nails Wicked Fast top coat (yes I am a Cult Nails superfan lolol).

 

First up is Evolution.  This is a beautiful peach creme.  The formula on this one was a little thinner than I was expecting, but was manageable with a steady hand.  This is three thin coats. 

 

 

Next up is New Day, a pastel yellow creme.  This polish is totally unique to me, I really can't remember seeing another like it.  It's just gorgeous.  The formula on this one was a little thicker than Evolution, but again manageable with a steady hand.  The first coat went on a little streaky but evened out nicely with the second.  This is two coats.

 

 

 

Lastly is my favourite of this collection, Falling Hard.  This is a stunning pink creme.  I don't normally go for the girlier shades of pink like this one, but I absolutely love this shade!  I've been wearing it for the last few days and seriously don't want to take it off.  This is a one coater - I wasn't sure if one coat would be enough when I first applied it but it levelled itself out beautifully.  One coat here.

 

 

The It's A New Day collection is available now from Cult Nails.  You can also purchase their first stamping plate!  I ordered this collection in the pre-sale so received the stamping plate for free, and will be featuring it on the blog very soon!
