Cult Nails-Awakening and Hypnotize Me

My Cult Nails fall collection pre-order came in earlier this week! I know I say I usually wait to buy when polishes go on sale, but I loved the colors that were offered here so I decided to splurge a bit and get it. Now, the mani I was planning on doing was In a Trance and Hypnotize Me, but since someone already beat me to it I decided to go for the creme. And what a lovely creme it is.

Awakening is a dark teal creme. In the bottle it looks more blue but when you put it on and after it dries it leans more green. I love it how it is, but I was hoping it kept that original dark blue teal color. On the lookout for a color like that now.

The polish here was thin but good. This is two thin coats. Went on amazing, per usual with Cult Nails. Dried on the quicker side of things too. I don't know what else to say, this is a great creme polish. If you adore teals like me then this one is a must I think.

Now, Hypnotize Me is a blue/green glitter in a very light/pale/limeish green color base. I would never wear this on its own, but layered on top of a creme? Hell yes.

So pretty. My pictures don't do it justice. It shows purple as well as green and blue. It's thick so I only did one coat, but one coat is packed with lots of glitter. It went on well and covered the base teal really well.

I love these two polishes together. And I love Awakening alone. I'm going to hold off on wearing the other two polishes, just because it does have a decided fall feel to them (as do these two) and it's still hitting mid 90 degrees in Charleston. I think I want to wear them when I can break out a sweater. But I'm in love with this collection already.
