For Fall 2013 Cult Nails has released the All Access Collection. Of the five shades released three of them were absolute must haves for me – Grunge, Feedback and Disillusion.
Grunge is a murky grey-green cream. The formula was wonderful, coating evenly and smoothy. Two coats were used below but one likely would have been okay.
Feedback has a clear base full of iridescent and gold shattered mylar-esque shards. I was actually a little nervous about this one because I saw a few reviews that said it was hard to work with, but I had no problems painting a coat over Grunge and it definitely looked okay to me. One coat shown below over Grunge.

Disillusion has a sheer black jelly base and lots of thick magenta flakes. Below is three coats but I actually would recommend painting just one coat over Nevermore (or a one coat black cream) because it was a little hard to get the polish to be opaque, especially near the tip of the nail.

All in all, I’m happy with my choices and sad I missed out on the pre-sale event where I could’ve picked up the whole collection for almost the same price. Speaking of whole collections, right now a mini-collection is available for purchase in limited quantities. The Midnight Masquerade Collection features three full size lacquers that are flipping insanely gorgeous and are only $24.00 for the trio. Check out the swatches over at Vampy Varnish and try to resist. You can’t.
Cult Nails Nail Lacquer can be purchased on the website where they retail for $12.00 each. Shipping is FREE for all U.S. Domestic orders.

I REALLY like the look of these nail polishes… sometimes nail polishes can be a bit similar these stand out from the crowd 🙂

Grunge and Disillusion are so gorgeous! I also like No Feedback, but I can never be bothered to layer anything over anything, so it’s not the ideal thing for me 😉

Wow, wow, wow! “Grunge” is such an amazing shade; it reminds me of the time I visited a jewelry store that specialized in nothing but precious jade.
