Smith & Cult 'Porn-A-Thon'

Helloo! Today I have swatches of my first Smith & Cult nail polish. I received the shade 'Porn-A-Thon' in February's Red Carpet MeeBox (full post here). After a quick bit of research, I believe Smith & Cult polish is a 5-free line developed by the founder of Hard Candy. It is what I would consider a high end brand so I was excited to try it out! As always, read on for more info.

'Porn-A-Thon' is a peach creme. At first I did think it was a nude, but it definitely has that nice peachy tone to it. The bottle is rather chunky (it has no chance of fitting on my shelves), thankfully the cap does come off to reveal a smaller lid.

The formula was so easy to work with. It was very smooth and easy to apply. I was a bit too heavy handed so ended up needing three coats, although you should only need two - especially if you have shorter nails. Below is three coats and topcoat.

(The first picture is more colour accurate, not sure why my fingers look so odd in the second!)

I initially didn't think this would suit me at all due to my pale skin, but I really liked the colour so had to give it a try. I actually think it's just bright enough that I can pull it off! It's a gorgeous colour. What do you think?

You can find 'Porn-A-Thon' online for £19 here.

Hope to see you in the next post!

    1. I do like the bold packaging, but I'm afraid it'll only fit in my Helmer :( x

  5. What a gorgeous creme. I am loving cremes more and more again. The price is a little high for me, though.

    1. Me too! I can't resist a good creme :) It is a tad steep, not something I'd pick up myself but I was impressed! x
