Cult Nails Seduction

Morninggg! 


I have the last polish in the Cult Nails Divas and Drama Collection for you today, Seduction. This polish is a simply gorgeous purple/red jelly base absolutely filled with red, blue and pink iridescent flakies. 


Now before you look at my pictures, I had a hell of a hard time capturing this to look like it did in real life.

My camera, like most, hates purples. This is showing up a lot bluer than it is IRL. I used 3 coats with no undies for this swatch, but next time I wear it I will probably use a purple or blue jelly underneath to save on flakie goodness.

It looks as though there is a little VNL, but this was not visible IRL. Can you see how PACKED this is with flakies?! I'm absolutely in love with it. This has to be tied with Scandalous for my favourite in the collection. 




I had to play around with lighting to try and get this as close to real life as possible, and I think the above picture is close, so I apologise that my hands look weird. Maria created this polish right after Clairvoyant/Unicorn Puke when a friend said she would like it without the green flakies in it. I was never fortunate enough to get my hands on Unicorn Puke, but seeing swatches and comparing I am head over heels in love with Seduction!


When I was deciding what kind of nail art to do with this, I had a hard time, because I kept thinking up awesome possibilities! I finally settled on a slightly butterfly inspired look.

To get this look I grabbed my Black Stripe Rite striper and created some lines and rounded off the tops. Then filled in the top with black. I finally grabbed my rhinestones and added a purple and two clear ones at the base of the lines!

I LOVED wearing this! The flakies are incredibly gorgeous and kept catching the light. I just loved the added rhinestones too :) I'm on a bit of a rhinestone kick lately! lol

Aren't you just falling in love with how gorgeous this is?!?! I'm dying over here. It's still on my nails and I'm not taking it off until I absolutely have to!! :D 


Seduction is a limited edition polish and is still available at Cult Nails for $10 USD. I would scurry over there and get yourself one 10 minutes ago before this bad boy sells out. Actually I would hope that you get the ENTIRE Divas and Drama Collection. It is a stunning collection and I do not regret having every polish. 


What do you think of Seduction? Do you love it as much as I do? 


What about my nail art? Like the butterfly inspired nails?

    1. Thank you Marta! The flakies were why I was drawn to the butterfly look actually, it reminded me of how the sun would look through a butterflys wing! :D

    1. haha thanks Julie! I put the nail art on right after I took the pictures of the polish, but I love it on its own and will be wearing it again soon!

  10. This is absolutely gorgeous!

    Flakies are hard to capture on their own. If you layer this over a purple base, it might show the flakies better in picture. I'm sure it packs a punch irl though.
    Beautiful nail art!
