Butter LONDON: Polish in Crumpet and Lippy in Hen Party

Butter London Polish in Crumpet* - £12 & Lippy in Hen Party* - £14

I fell in love with Butter London when I got the chance to try them at the press event I had the chance to attend and when I had the chance to try out this gorgeous nude shade, well I just couldn't say no. I'm usually more of a bright polish kinda girl, but I think this was because I just hadn't found the right nude. 

This is perfect! The finish, the quality of the polish, the shade - I absolutely love it all. I feel as though any colour could come along and I'd love it as much as the next. There's just something special about a Butter London polish and I just can't quite put my finger on it. 

Just like the previous Butter London polishes I reviewed, this last's amazingly well on the nails - the best quality polish I have ever tried and yes that is over OPI and Nails Inc. I just don't rate them as much as I do Butter London. I know that £12 is pricey for a polish, but if you're looking to buy a higher ended nail polish, then I would definitely recommend them over the majority of other brands. 

Then there was the lip gloss that I also received in the shade Hen Party. I will first say that I am not a lip gloss kind of girl at all, and it will take a lot for me to use a lip gloss. I do really like this lip gloss and actually I'm surprised, it smells lovely and sweet and I think that is what properly does it for me. It feels nice on the lips, still a bit sticky though, but it does the job a lip gloss does. I didn't expect to like the shade, but actually the fact that it has glitter running through it works, and the nude shade comes out very clear anyway. I doubt I would wear this on it's own though and would probably wear it over a lipstick to give it that bit extra.

Butter London Nail Lacquer in Posh Bird - Exclusive to Boots

Butter London Polish in Posh Bird* - £12 Exclusive to Boots

Butter London polishes are now stocking in Boots stores, Nationwide and to go alongside this collaboration they have brought out this lovely polish that is exclusive to Boots. 

Posh Bird is a smokey mushroom polish with silver microglitter.  

This polish was inspired by femininity, but they have added an unexpected edge. It is purple polish with a subtle silver shimmer running through it. Just like with the other metallic polishes from the Summer Holiday Collection, I didn't expect to like it but it looks amazing in the light.

The formulation is much like all of the other Butter London polishes; easy to apply and very quick drying. The polish is opaque in two coats.

Butter London Summer Holiday Collection

Butter London Summer Holiday Collection Polishes*

Poole, Sunbaker, Bit Faker, Marbs, Champers

£12

The Summer Holiday Collection is the upcoming collection from Butter London. The shades are designed to work well with sun-kissed skin and the sun itself. A collection full of metallics, glitter and a turquoise, there is a shade for everyone in this collection. I've previously wrote about the event on my blog and in an article on Baobella.

Butter London polishes are free from DBP, toluene, and formaldehyde. They apply so well, very smooth and streak free and dry unbelievably quickly. I'm not really one for painting my nails that often as sometimes it just feels like a chore but with the ease of application and short drying time with these polishes, I will definitely be having more of a go with these! 

When first seeing this collection I didn't really think that the metallic shades were really to my taste although I did love Bit Faker and Poole - a lot more up my street. But, it wasn't until I actually applied the polish to my nails until I really realised how great they all were! They shine so beautifully in the sun, and I can really see why Butter London have chosen them for their Holiday collection... Excuse my while I pop them in my Holiday make up bag!

Bit Faker

Every girl loves a good glitter polish! I'm usually one to go for a much brighter shade as they usually stand out to me when shopping but I am so glad I now have this one in my collection. It only takes two coats to be opaque - absolutely amazing for a glitter polish! And it dries very quickly. The bronze shade is much more wearable than a bright glitter so I can imagine I'll get a lot more use out of it as it literally does go with everything. 

Champers

As I mentioned previously, I really didn't expect to like this polish but after swatching it I love it! It is quite a subtle metallic shade and works really well with my skin tone. Just like Bit Faker, it's very wearable and would go with everything. This looks absolutely stunning in the light, you need to try it to understand it's true beauty! 

Marbs

Just like with Champers, I really didn't expect to like this. The gold polish looks absolutely amazing in the light, the pictures really don't do it justice.  

Sunbaker 

Probably my least favourite out of the collection, although I do love it a lot more than I first expected after swatching - just like with the others. A lovely copper orange shade that reflects just as nicely in the light as Marbs and Champers. 

Poole

This has got to be my favourite in the collection! An African turquoise with no shimmer is right up my street. I am a lover of this mint green shade and the formulation of these polishes means that it's got to be a new favourite of mine. The polish was opaque in one coat, amazing! 

It seems that Butter London may be my new favourite quality nail polish brand. The quality of the polishes are unreal. They are quite a bit more expensive than a normal high street nail polish but I really can see why. If I'm ever feeling like treating myself then I'm sure I'll be heading straight for the Butter London stand in Boots. 

This collection will be available to buy in August, and the Butter London range can now be bought in Boots! Take a look at their range here.

Butter London Event

I went along to the Butter London event for Baobella, where I am currently interning. An evening filled with manicures, nail polish, cocktails and canapés, what more could a girl want? 

We were there to find out about their new upcoming Summer Holiday Collection and a new limited edition polish that is only available in Boots. 

I spent most of the time telling people about Baobella, but you should all know about it now - you can read my post on the website here! You should all go join, it's great fun. 

I got my nails done by the lovely Lola! I opted for a cream and navy blue nail art manicure. There were so many great ones to choose from - I just couldn't decide but chose something in the end that would go with everything. I was pretty worried at first about ruining them as I am such a clutz when doing my nails usually but I really didn't have to worry. They dried so quickly! I literally couldn't believe it. I am a definite Butter London convert. 

I was very generously given a goody bag with all of the new polishes including the limited edition polish for Boots. I will post about them soon!
