Seeing Red/Double + My New Nails!!!

So I've had a pretty crappy night that involved being stuck out in the rain and cold so I'm kinda seeing red today.

You're probably seeing double. I know Cult Nails Quench has been posted here before but I decided now that I've worn for a few days I needed to do a quick review too.

It's a glossy red jelly that varies in shade depending on the light.  After 2 coats it looked opaque but you could tell where it was patchy in different light.  So I needed 3 coats for complete coverage.

Here's where my problem is.  It's a beautiful, alluring colour (and I'm glad I own it).  But after a day of wearing it I had tip wear.  Also I got sheet marks... on the SECOND night I was wearing it.  I've worn jellies before and never had this happen.  I also used my normal base and top coat.  So that was a bit disappointing.

Here are also my new nails.  No, I didn't have some accident that required I even them all out.  I just wanted shorter nails.  I think they look cute, especially with the deeper colours I like to wear.  Also a couple of my nails start to grow funny if they get to long and that looks blah!

  4. hmm I love the colour but not the problems associated with it. That's disappointing.

    Hope you are feeling better after your bad night :) I doubt this polish helped much :P

  14. Gorgeous nail shape- it looks fantastic. And I love how reds look on nails that are a bit shorter- I know I always gravitate towards reds when I've just chopped my nails off (in my case usually because I suffer some traumatic break :P).
