CND Creative Play™ Fall shades review!

I’ve been reviewing CND products for a long time and a fairly new kid on the block, the Creative Play™ Nail Lacquer system offers up a plethora of finishes and shades for your “Creative” side! I have several to share with you and for today, I thought it would be fun to feature some shades of falling leaves! We are in the thick of Autumn and I can’t think of four better shades to show you. I’ve also included the Base Coat and Top Coats for the system. Let’s dive in!

Ahh, these fall shades made for a perfect little nail art display using CND Creative Play™ shades in See U in Sienna for a foundation, and the little tree leaves are Mango About Town, Apricot in the Act and Gilty or Innocent.

Play outside the box. It’s your call. Go all out with new shades of unique, potent color. Go funky. Go glam. Go goth. Just go play.

I love that they sent me these four fabulous Fall shades from CND Creative Play™ so I could feature them together! From left: Gilty or Innocent, See U in Sienna, Apricot in the Act and Mango About Town.

Apricot in the Act by CND Creative Play™ is a creamy Apricot and I honestly do not have anything like it! The formula is on the thicker side, this is two coats, and has a slightly chalky but very pigmented consistency. Really, two coats makes it perfect.

CONCLUSION: I have to admit, I sort of thought this collection might be like a minor version of the Weekly Polish system I’ve been so impressed with and have already reviewed for some time now. But I am so far seriously impressed. The application is super easy and the Base Coat and Top Coat are fabulous. I love the brush, the huge assortment of shades and finishes. Stay tuned as I have many more to share with you, including some gorgeous holiday shades!
