Cult Nails My Kind of Cool Aid
This is one of those polishes that I purchased earlier this year and just never got around to posting it. My Kind of Cool Aid was Cult Nails' very first color. I ordered it as soon as Maria said it was for sale on her website and then I got it and it quickly got lost in my collection.
Then yesterday, Maria tweeted that Cult Nails had given 600 bottles of My Kind of Cool Aid to the HollyRod Foundation in support of their Design Care 2011 event. As a mom of an autistic child, I thought, "that's awesome!" and then, I thought "I have that". So, today, I dug it out of my (still) disorganized polishes.
And now I'm kinda sad that I left it unworn so long. LOL.
My Kind of Cool Aid is a "greige" shimmer, but it also leans a bit lavender. Kind of like Wild Orchid from Color Club's fall 2010 collection, though they aren't dupes. The shimmer in this one is micro-shimmer in shades of pale blue and pink, but you have to look close. When I first looked it it, the shimmer just looked silver. The formula was good. I did have a bit of an issue with drag, but that's easily solved by waiting a couple minutes between coats. Pic is 3 coats, though it you are careful you could probably get away with 2.
This makes me really want to try more Cult Nails polishes, and I'm still kicking myself for not picking up Captivated before it sold out. :( :P

Cult Nails polishes are available on their website. They are $10. Also, I noticed that during the month of August, Cult Nails will donate a portion of its sales to the HollyRod Foundation.
