Cult Nails Untamed

Another Wednesday, another pink polish to support Breast Cancer Awareness! And this kicks off me showing you a recent collection from Cult Nails, Coco's Untamed Collection-- all the polishes were created by one of Maria's daughters, Coco. The first one I have for you is Untamed, which is described as a "bubble gum pink sheer jelly polish with subtle multi-colored shimmer." Coco herself says: "It's such a happy color; who can feel sad when they're wearing all that pink!?" Well said, Coco!

Untamed is definitely jelly in formula, but not as sheer as some jellies can be-- in fact, it was more opaque than I was anticipating. I used three coats here and it was pretty much opaque with minimal visible nail line. This went on easily and dried without any problems. I am wearing a top coat in these pictures, and though I didn't make any notes about it, I think it must be because it might have dried a little dull or possibly gritty due to

This is such a perfect bubblegum pink! It's cute and girly and the shimmer is just enough to make it youthful, but not so much that an adult woman couldn't get away with wearing it. Maybe not to the office, of course, but I wore this as a pedicure over the summer and loved it. It is a happy color and it makes me happy just looking at it.

    1. Go, try it now! It's pouring down rain in Seattle right now and I'm tempted to pull this bottle out and put it on asap to cheer myself up.

  2. This is probably my least favorite from this collection but it's still really pretty! I love the idea of colors like this but I think they look strange on me :-/

    1. I have to agree. I like this a lot, and have worn it, but compared to the other polishes in this collection, it's definitely my "least" favorite. But really, Cult Nails always makes great polishes, so it's really which ones I like the MOST than the least.

    1. You do need to join the Cult! A great range of colors, and definitely one of the most consistent lines in terms of formula.
