Nail Polish of the Week: Smith & Cult Extra Ordinary

February 16th, 2022 by Karen 11 Comments

I like to think of this opaque fuchsia pink as a punk rock pink. It’s not too sweet, nor too schmexy; it’s a personable pink with an edge. It’s bright for sure, but it’s not nearly as blindingly bright as neon highlighter pink.

Anywho, I got a couple questions in the comments yesterday, so here she is in all her gorgeous glory!

If you’re new to Smith & Cult, they’re a cool indie nail polish and makeup line that you can find at SpaceNK and online.

I haven’t tried the makeup, but the polishes? LOVE. I’ve been wearing them for years because of the high pigment and long wear time.

The polishes are vegan and what Smith & Cult calls “8-free” — so no dibutyl phthalate, toluene, formaldehyde, formaldehyde resin, camphor, xylene, ethyl tosylamide and triphenyl phosphate.

Should you decide to pick up a bottle, you might also want to grab their top coat, too. It’s sturdy, shiny and seems to do the best job of extending the wear time with the Smith & Cult line.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. Happy hump day. The end of the week is in sight! I wanted to let you know that I’m so proud of you. You’re doing great!

    I must have this color! This is perfection pink!
    I bought my last bottle of their top coat at Ultra but it looks like they’ve stopped carrying the brand 🙁

    Thank you

      That’s a bummer! I wish they still carried them.

    Such a beautiful color for spring! I’ve been having a lot of problems with my nail polish staying nice for even a week with having to use hand sanitizer so much for my job with the public. Has anyone else had problems with this? I’ve been using a good top coat (Seche Vite or OPI) but I’m still seeing it dull and then flake within just a few days. Any suggestions on brands that might help? Maybe this Smith and Cult?

      Hi Susan,

      I don’t think you’re the only one. It’s been a rough couple of years for hands, especially. Do you have to use a specific type of hand sanitizer brand at work? Maybe try switching to a different version?

    This is such a happy color! It made me smile, just to look at it. It’s cool and snowy here, so it’s so nice to see a pop of color!

    That really is a great spring color, much better than those pastel pinks.
