Cult Nails Fairy Tale Collection for Summer 2012 Swatches & Review
Cult Nails Fairy Tale is a new collection out this summer featuring five new shades.
And check it: It’s available now for pre-sale ordering at a nice discount…The collection will not ship until June 15th however.
So let us dive into the world of Fairy Tale!
Fairy Tale
Princess
Princess is a pale blue with subtle pink/gold/green shimmer throughout. This is a really pretty shade, and not like anything else I own. Love the base blue, but the unusual shimmer color makes it really special. Great creamy formula. I did use three thin coats here, but you could use two thicker ones.
Feelin’ Froggy
Feelin’ Froggy is a bright medium kelly green with light green shimmer. Very pretty! I love how shiny and shimmery this one is, and I don’t have very many green polishes this shade actually. Nice formula and covered in two coats.
Charming
Charming is a medium violet purple with pink and blue shimmer. This one has a very squishy, almost jelly-like finish. I used three thin coats for this one as it’s a little more sheer.
Evil Queen
Evil Queen is a bright classic red creme. Shiny, opaque with a great formula. This was two coats.
Happy Ending
Happy Ending is a multi-colored glitter in a clear base. The glitter particles are like jagged shards of glass and all various sizes. The colors are purple, gold, blue and orange. I was really surprised at how thin the clear base was. I expected it to be really thick but it’s actually super thin. Almost too thin actually because every time I got glitter on the brush it wanted to slip right off back into the bottle. I had to work a bit placing the glitter pieces where I wanted.

Happy Ending over Evil Queen
Overall: Nice collection! My favorites were Princess, Feelin’ Froggy and Charming. Evil Queen is a really nice red, but probably the least unique in the bunch. Happy Ending is definitely unique, and if you love glitters you will like this one.
Availability: Cult Nails.
Pricing: Right now (pre-sale) $40.00 for all five. After that it will be $50.00 for all five, or $10.00 each.
Now that you have seen the Fairy Tale collection, will you be pre-ordering any of them or ALL of them?

I really like Charming because of its interesting finish.
I can’t help it, I love them all
Happy Ending would be my least favorite because I am not a fan of those shreds of glitter as they tend to stick out on my nails. And Princess reminds me of Sinful Colors Cinderella. Do you know if they’re similar?

Ooo I love Princess and Happy Ending! Princess is SUCH a pretty color! Reminds me of Cinderella’s dress

Thanks for sharing these beauties. I agree with Sabine and Sunny; I think Princess looks a lot like Sinful Colors Cinderella, at least in your swatches. I have a similar green with shimmer, but I’m not crazy about the formula, so I love Feeling Froggy. And Charming. . . Well, that name says it all.

Princess and Feelin’ Froggy are great! I love the shimmer in both. The glittery topcoat is interesting, but I’m not sure about the formula- I hate fighting to get enough glitter on the brush.

Pretty! I don’t own Happy Ending, but from the pictures I’ve seen, it looks EXACTLY like Icing After Party…they’re so close, even though I don’t own HE, I’m going to say they’re exact dupes.
I think Princess is my favorite from this bunch. No plans to pre-order as of now.

Princess if kind of like Sinful Colors Cinderella, with the blue base and the pink shimmer. I think Princess’ shimmer is more subtle, though~ Still really pretty.
The shimmer in Princess really is unexpected. I like how it has a twist!
