Cult Nails Passionate Dreams Preview Swatches and Pre-Sale Info
Fans of boutique nail polish brand, Cult Nails, may have suspected that changes were afoot when the brand hosted a warehouse clearance sale recently. In 2014, Cult Nails is going back to its roots by switching its model back to Limited Edition collections. They will always offer basics, but the seasonal collections will be just as limited as the hot handbag of the season. Once it’s gone, it’s gone!
The newest collection from Cult Nails, Passionate Dreams, arrived just as I was preparing for my vacation. So, even though I don’t have time for a full on swatch fest, I wanted to show you the colors before the pre-sale ends on January 30th.
The Backstory
Beginning with the Masquerade collection, all Cult Nails collections will have a story. And whether that story continues is up to you! The Passionate Dreams collection begins the short story and if the fans vote for more chapters, they will be written. Othewise an entirely different short story will be written for subsequent collections.
…She dreamed of the day when she would find him, the one. And find him, she did. He passed her in the park on her morning walk. She’d been watching him as he approached. With his head down and his hands in his pockets, he hadn’t given her so much as a glance. But there he was, the absolute man of her dreams. His stride was flawless and graceful, but manly. His build was average but he carried himself with confidence, not cockiness. And his eyes. Oh his eyes! When he looked up to apologize for almost bumping into her, she could feel his eyes looking deeper into her soul than she ever thought possible. His stare was intense. Heart stopping. Lethal. That was the moment. The feeling his gaze left her with was enough to ignite her passion. Then she felt it. The pounding in her heart. Her breathing became shallow and quick. Her senses were exploding at the thought of him simply speaking to her. Then, it happened. She looked back at him and their eyes met once more. It was undeniable; but as quickly as he approached, he continued on, blending in with the background until he was eventually out of sight.
CULT NAILS™ brings you the PASSIONATE DREAMS collection. With names like LETHAL, IGNITE, ANGEL WHISPERS, and KISS, this collection brings emotions of desire, lust, and passion, and the colors are no exception.
Cult Nails Ignite – Blending a black jelly base with silver glitter, it’s like closing your eyes for that first kiss, and seeing stars. Ignite is pure passion fuel.
Cult Nails Angel Whispers – A soft, pale pink crème provides the base color for this texture polish. Even though the finish may feel slightly rough, its color and signature Cult Nails™ shimmer create a softening effect reminiscent of an Angel’s wings.
Cult Nails Kiss – No love story is complete without a kiss. Crafted to invoke emotions of lust and desire, Kiss is a vibrant red that dries to a wax-like finish.
Cult Nails Lethal – Like staring into your lover’s eyes, you won’t be able to look away when this silver foil is on your tips.
Cult Nails Passionate Dreams Pre-Sale Dates: January 17-31, 2014 at CultNails.com. The 4 piece set will sell only as a collection during the pre-sale time for $35.00. Remaining colors, if any, will be sold individually beginning February 15, 2014 and will retail for $12.00 each.

Really nice swatches on these shades!
I don’t usually order whole collections any more, but I love all of these so just put in my order!
I am a HUGE fan of Cult Nails and I have been absolutely dying to see what people have to say about this new collection. I think that Ignite & Lethal. I cannot decide for the life of me whether or not to buy the pre-sale. I am never disappointed by Cult Nails.
I am quite frustrated about this tbh, I only want one of the shades (but I want it baaad!) so will have to do without unless it turns up on ebay
Cute concept. Ridiculously cheesy storyline. They might do better asking fans to write the stories. Nevertheless, interesting to read about lesser known polish lines. Thanks for sharing.
that silver looks awesome! maybe a little like the stephani silver?
It’s more of a foil metallic as compared to the Gwen Stefani one. That one looks more like brushed metal
I’m going to be interested to see how this new model goes over – I think selling the whole collection for a time and then selling whatever’s left separately is a pretty reasonable way to go, though! (That said, I don’t ever buy whole collections.)
What a great review! I cannot wait to receive my first Cult polishes. I love their concept of limited editions, makes one feel special!
