Morning dears!
Today I have more Cult Nails and The Hungry Asian polish to show you! Recently I have been seeing on Pinterest a new type of accent nail, where your thumb, ring and pinky nails are all one colour and your index and middle nails are the accent! I had both Cult Nails Living Water, which I was lemming hard and am SO thrilled that I have, and The Hungry Asian's Sea Creature sitting on my desk and a light went off! They would look awesome together. I was planning on doing a gradient of sorts, but I didn't have a lot of time when I was doing this so I tried the new accent style.
I really liked the colours together, but I am not sold on this style. Without my thumb in the pictures it looks like I did half my hand one way and half the other lol.
Living Water applied like butter. It was so easy and fully opaque in 2 coats. The formula is amazing on this. I only needed to clean up because my dog decided to bark at me as I was applying it on my ring finger and I jumped. Otherwise it is essentially perfect.
Sea Creature applied really nicely as well. I did not use an undercoat for this and it was opaque in 2 and a half coats. Two regular coats and a little bit of placing the glitter on my nail. Dry time was pretty quick for a glitter and this baby was not terribly hungry! Just needed 1 coat of SV. I probably could have put on some Gelous as well to make it perfectly smooth, but SV worked good enough for me at the time.
I feel like Sea Creature is the child of Living Water and glitter. The two colours look so nice together and I love them both on their own epicly. I was wearing Sea Creature on my toes for about 2 weeks a few weeks ago and as soon as I got Living Water it went on my toes so I can always look at it haha. I don't even want to put on socks even though my house is chilly these days because I want to always stare at the prettiness!
I love both these polishes and I think that's been made pretty evident throughout this post. Living Water can be purchased from Cult Nails for $10 USD and they will ship almost anywhere! Sea Creature can be picked up from The Hungry Asian's Etsy Shop for $9.25 USD for a full sized 15mL bottle or $4.50 USD for a 5mL mini bottle. The Hungry Asian does not ship outside of the States, so if you are outside and need that polish become friends with someone in the States who will ship to you :) All Cult Nails polishes are 4-free and The Hungry Asian's are 3-free and both are cruelty free.
Will you be buying either of these? Do you like the new accent nail trend?
Sincerely Stephanie
