Butter London Disco Biscuit

Hi Everyone!

 

I haven't tried many of the nail polishes from Butter London before, I own Muggins and Teddy Girl and like them both but have always felt that they are a little over priced! Anyway, I decided to give Disco Biscuit a try as I love the name and how it looks in the bottle! Disco Biscuit is described as a 'Hot pink glitter' polish.

 

I began by applying 2 coats of OPI Matte Nail Envy as my base followed by 2 coats of Disco Biscuit. This polish has a jelly-like finish and is, therefore, a little on the sheer side. On a plus point it does dry quite quickly. I finished off by adding a layer of Seche Vite Top Coat.

 

 

 

This polish is really pretty and lasted well. It reminded me a little bit of OPI's Flashbulb Fuchsia.

You can purchase this polish from Butter London for £12

Butter London Muggins Nail Polish - Review & Swatch

Hi Everyone!

I have only ever tried one other Butter London Nail Polish in Teddy Girl and really liked that one so I thought I'd give another one a go! I decided to get Muggins which is a grey-toned, pale lilac colour.

I began by applying 2 coats of OPI Matte Nail Envy as my base followed by 2 coats of Muggins. This polish really isn't the easiest to apply, it's quite thick and streaky to apply but does seem to even out after drying. It is opaque after the second coat but there a few light patches. I finished off with 1 coat of Seche Vite Top Coat.

Overall, I am a little disappointed with this polish. The colour is nice and despite the lacquer having quite a thick consistency it did dry fairly quickly. The application is pretty poor though and I don't really think that it is worth the money.

After painting my nails I decided to add a glitter accent nail to my ring fingers, I used Models Own Disco Mix which is a clear based nail polish, packed full of blue and purple glitter.

Top 10 Spring & Summer Nail Polishes

Hi Everyone!

I have put a list together for you of my top 10 summer nail polishes! These are the fun, bright colours that I love to wear during the summer when the weather is warm and sunny! However, as I live in the UK the weather can be pretty rubbish even in the middle of summer so these polishes really cheer me up!

10. Zoya Jo: This is the only blue on my list so you know that it must be pretty special! It is a lovely cornflower blue shade with shimmer.

9. Essie Van D'Go: This is a lovely pastel peach shade with a hint of pink.

8. OPI Purple With a Purpose: This is  beautiful amethyst colour that is perfect for any time of the year and is great if you want to wear a darker shade but still want to be summery!

7. Zoya Sweet: This is a pink bubblegum colour with a cream finish.

6. Zoya Happi: Happi is a unique peachy-pink with a hint of gold shimmer.

 5. OPI Do You Lilac It? This is a gorgeous pastel lilac colour.

4. Orly Fancy Fuchsia: This is a really eye-catching hot pink colour that always gets a lot of attention!

3. Butter London Teddy Girl: This is an opaque milky- pink shade.

2. OPI La-Pazitively Hot: As the names suggests this is a hot pink colour and is one of OPI's best selling shades.

1. Essie Pansy: Pansy is one of my favourite nails polishes and definitely my favourite summer polish. It is a gorgeous tropical hot pink shade.

Please share your favourite summer polishes below.

Enjoy the warm weather!

Butter London Teddy Girl Nail Polish - Review & Swatch

Hi Everyone!

Today I decided to apply Teddy Girl by Butter London to my nails. This is the first of their nail polish's that I have tried and I love the colour. Its is a fully opaque milky-pink shade. I used OPI's Nail Envy as my base and then applied 2 coats of Teddy Girl to my nails. The polish was opaque after one coat but a little patchy. The polish looks great after 2 coats. The brush is short and has a rounded tip, I found this quite tricky and difficult to apply compared to OPI's brushes. The lacquer consistency is quite thick but it dried quickly.

For fun I decided to apply 1 coat of OPI's I Lily Love You glitter polish from the new Nice Stems collection to my ring fingers and thumbs. I then applied a coat of Seche Vite Top Coat to each nail.

I love both of these polishes so much. Teddy Girl remind me of a pinker version of OPI's Sweetheart and a lot like a strawberry milkshake! I Lily Love You is also gorgeous.
 I purchased the Butter nail polish from  Look Fantastic for £12 and you can also get it from Amazon here: butter LONDON 3 Free Nail Lacquer Teddy Girl

Overall I would give Teddy Girl 4 out of 5 stars.
