Cherry Culture!

Sorry about the lack of updates :( I have been sick. Just a cold, but I've been spending all my free time sleeping to get rid of it. But now! I am better! so a long overdue review of Cherry Culture will start things back up

Alrighty! I ended my month-long (ish) no buy with this spree :D lots of nail polishes were on sale so I got quite a few.
This is after I opened everything up in the mail room :( I was too excited to see all my goodies
They were all wrapped in bubble wrap and arrived in pristine condition.
Shipping was free due to a promotion (if you spent a certain amount...)
A couple of nail treatments. Ive been using the whitener as a basecoat for about a week now, but I have seen no difference yet. Obviously it would take longer than a week to work so who knows!
Awesome metallics! need a couple of coats to go opaque though

My first LA Colors. The red was a jelly :( is there even a true red creme out there???

My first NYX polishes as well
This came in a set from LA Colors called explosive. $3 for four polishes!
A much needed brown creme and more glitter :D
 These little guys were my only issue with Cherry culture. It appears that they had the sinful colors labeled wrong. I was expecting (151) St. Thomas (the bronze color) to be a nice pearly white with a ton of glitter and (958) Let's Meet was labeled on the site as a green with golden shimmer... The bronze and yellow were very unexpected. They are super pretty colors. The only issue is that I already have polishes that are pretty much the same as both of these :(  I have the option of returning them for store credit but the shipping would kind of make it pointless. 
Maybe if I have a giveaway, I can throw these in :) for the moment, they sit on my desk...

Alright, so Cherryculture.com
good prices. nice selection. Not too sure about the customer service.... I emailed them about the mislabeling issue and never got a word back... Also, the mislabeling on their site has not yet been fixed so if you order a color, I recommend you double check with another website to make sure thats the color they are showing you. I believe this is only an issue with the sinful color polishes...
Other than this misadventure, I am enjoying my new goodies

Awwwh, sucks you got a different color :c
They should really change that.
The colors are nice, my fav is the blue from LACOLORS. I got the silver one from LACOLORS! Really cheap, that brand, but I wish it was more available in Ireland.

Great bargain haul :)!, sorry about the different color, I agreed they should change them for you.
