Product Review: Butter London

Hey all!

So I'm always hesitant and a tad skeptical to try out the "prestige cosmetic" brand products. Is a $5 tube of mascara really that much more god awful than the $50 tube? Seriously...c'mon!

However, I would like to point out in some cases spending those extra dollars upfront can save you money down the road on products that don't work as well (even though beauty stores like Ulta and Sephora have pretty lenient return policies)!

For a list of what to spend or splurge on I'd recommend looking at this article:

But I digress...

I just wanted to talk about my experience with Butter-London Nail Polish! They typically run $14-$15 a bottle! :O But I found this holiday trio (full sized bottles) in the clearance section the other day for $9.99 (Originally it was $36)!

I have to say I'm sold! This trio is composed entirely of glitter polishes and with other brands this type of polish can come out gloppy and uneven. These glide on and dry so quickly that layering the polish is quick and easy. I used two coats to completely coat the nail. The first person I rang up at work commented on how nice my nails were. That's something that never loses its ability to make my day. I can't wait to try out one of their solid polishes to see if the result is the same, but I'm assured by my co-workers that they are definitely worth the money.

So in conclusion...take the hit. Pick up a bottle in a classic color that you'll get complete use out of it. You won't regret it!

Stay pretty...stay smart!
