Good afternoon my fellow lacquered lovers! Happy Wednesday to you all! I may be a bit silent on here in the next few days because NYFW is starting but be sure to check out my Instagram, Twitter and Facebook (@lacqueredlover) for up to the minute behind the scenes beauty access! But first, today I have a really cute collection for you!
The Butter London Sweetie Shop Collection is a super cute collection of bright pastels that are perfect for Spring! Now, without further ado, on to the polish!
Above: 3 thin coats of Cuppa
Cuppa is a light beige nude creme. It's definitely a palette cleanser type of color, very professional looking but beige enough that it won't give anyone mannequin hands. The formula was a bit hard to work with, fairly thick, so I found that three thin coats worked best.
Above: 3 thin coats of Jasper
Jasper is a bright pastel yellow creme polish. Now I'm not sure how something can be bright but pastel but this collection is just full of these gems! The formula for a light yellow wasn't bad, three thin coats made it opaque and not streaky.
Above: 2 coats of Kerfuffle
I really like saying Kerfuffle. I have now incorporated it into my vocabulary. Kerfuffle is a bright pastel coral. This was a surprise favorite of mine from this collection! There is a lot of pink to this polish but it's so fun and bright! This will be a fabulous pedicure color! The formula was a bit thick but 2 coats worked for this polish, just let them dry for a minute or two in between.
Above: 2 coats of Fruit Machine
Fruit Machine is a bright baby pink creme. If you're a pink kinda gal, this color is right up your alley for Spring! The formula was good on this one, a bit thick but 2 coats worked perfectly!
Above: 3 thin coats of Fiver
I am loving all the mint greens this year that actually don't give me lobster hands! Fiver is a gorgeous ice mint green. I love that it's bright but pale at the same time! The formula works best when you use three thin coats to even it out.
Above: 3 thin coats of Molly Coddled
Molly Coddled is a bright lilac creme. I really like how this shade looks and don't think I have an exact dupe for it! The formula was a bit thick so I found that three thin coats worked the best for full opacity.
All in all, I liked this collection. I had bought these when they were buy 2 get 1 free at Nordstrom and am glad because a few of the formulas I wasn't in love with. They all look great eventually but I like my polishes to be 2 coaters. I will say that Fiver, Kerfuffle and Molly Coddled were definitely my favorites from this collection and fairly easy to work with! This collection is on sale now for $15 wherever Butter London is sold.
What did you think of this collection? Any must haves? Any dupes?

I think they are so pretty
ReplyDeleteI usually love bL but these don't do anything for me. Maybe I'm also not the right girl for spring collections, because so far, I haven't found much I really want :)
