Cult Nails It’s a New Day Collection
Cult Nails It’s a New Day Collection ($36.00 for 3 x 0.50 fl. oz.) is a three-piece, limited edition collection. It’s available for pre-order at a special price of $24, and each pre-order also receives a free stamping plate. The way Cult Nails’ collections work presently is they’re sold via pre-order as a set, and if there are any remaining sets after the pre-order concludes, then those remaining bottles will be available as individual shades for purchase.
Cult Nails New Day Nail Lacquer ($12.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as an “opaque, pastel yellow.” It’s a light, buttery yellow with a cream finish. It is mostly opaque in two coats, and it self-levels fairly well. I still ended up with a little bit of streakiness on my pinky nail, but the other three nails had totally self-leveled. The first coat was noticeably streaky, but the second coat hid and filled in the rest (excepting the pinky nail). The consistency is slightly thick, so I would make sure to take the time to do a thinner first coat, then a more normal coat for the second one. MAC Near Beth Experience (LE, $16.00) is a touch less warm-toned. Butter London Jasper (P, $15.00) is darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Cult Nails Evolution Nail Lacquer ($12.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a “sheer, but buildable, peach creme/jelly hybrid.” It’s a light, pastel peach with a cream finish. It’s sheer, as described, in a single coat, but it was a little streaky to me. I’ve also shown it with two coats, where it is opaque and had no streakiness. Dior Blossom (132) (LE, $24.00) is slightly darker. MAC Pep Pep Pep (LE, $16.00) is similar. MAC Myth (LE, $16.00) is darker. Chanel Emprise (P, $27.00) is darker. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
Cult Nails Falling Hard Nail Lacquer ($12.00 for 0.50 fl. oz.) is described as a “one coat, bubblegum pink creme.” It’s a light-medium, cool-toned bubblegum pink with a cream finish. It was fully opaque in one coat, just as promised. The consistency wasn’t too thick or too thin, but it leans slightly thick. Illamasqua Harem (P, $17.00) is lighter, cooler-toned. MAC Vagabondage (LE, $16.00) is similar MAC Saint Germain (LE, $16.00) is similar. Zoya Shelby (P, $9.00) is darker. Essie Cascade Cool (LE, $8.00) is similar. See comparison swatches / view dupes.
P.S. — If you go through my referral link, you can get $12 off $24 on your first purchase. Note, it does not apply to the special pre-sale price (which is already discounted), so just a heads up 🙂

I love Evolution and Falling Hard!
Yay!
Evolution is cute! Out of the three that one speaks to me the most.
Nice pick!
Love the yellow and pink one!
They’re so pretty together!
I like Evolution and Falling Hard. Evolution looks like a nice, subtle neutral shade for the office.
Perfect for the office for sure!
It sort of feels like these polishes were made specifically to fit in with MAC’s Playland collection.
Haha!
Falling Hard is beautiful! So shiny 😀 I like nail polishes that don’t require a topcoat to be shiny, because then when I put a topcoat on they can be SUPER SHINY! 😀
Haha! Exactly. I still like a top coat, but then it’s just EXTRA oomph!
I had to get Falling Hard! Just oredred 😉
Enjoy, Vineetha!
Thank you for the coupon code!! I have placed my order. This is my first time trying this polish…
This will be my first time trying the brand
My pleasure, Sherrie! Hope you love the polish! Which did you order?
Devious Nature and Enticing.
Good picks ;D
I like Evolution!
Yay!
Hmmm..I’m usually very game for some Cult Nails, but not this particular collection. It is falling flat on me. Butter London’s Jasper is a great yellow, a bit edgier..a little more suited to my tastes. These are pretty, but not something that interests me.
It’s not my fave collection they’ve done either!
Failing Hard is my fav.. the collection has lovely pastel shades.. Wish Evolution had been a little more pigmented
Aww, too bad!
Must resist buying!!!
You can do it, Shannon!
Oh, oh! These are so cute 🙂 I go through a phase every spring where I end up COMPLETELY OBSESSED with pastels and candy colours, and the pink and yellow in this collection are spot-on. <3
I love pastels on others but never gravitate towards them myself!
I WANT ALL OF THEM AND I DON’T THINK THEY DO CULT NAILS IN AUSTRALIA.
I think they send internationally, though!
Ahh! I love Maria and her creations! <3
Maria is great!
I love the peach and the pink!
Yay!
Evolution is pretty! I really like it!
Happy you liked it, Erin!
I like the yellow but I look really disgusting in that particular shade of yellow, haha!
Yellows are tough for me to pull off, too!
