Friday, fryday...
Today I have Three Butter London picks to show you guys. I've seriously become a huge fan of this brand very quickly. ANNNNND I finally got to kill a leming of mine. That doesn't happen very often. Mainly because I don't often catch "the lemmings", but for All Hail the Queen I made an exception.
To see these swatches continue reading.
butter LONDON
All Hail the Queen
This is a very well known and popular color.
All Hail the Queen is a nude with an edge. This sandy tone is packed full of sublte scattered holographic sparkle and indoors it flashes with hints of Pink shimmer. This color has a stunning formula and it does best at Two coats. I can't wait to wear this again!
Isn't that shimmer stunning?!
butter LONDON Knees Up
Ok... So I kinda picked this shade because sometimes I'm 13 and I giggle at silly things... Like the name of this polish.
Knees Up is a super rich jewel toned Red shimmer. This is one of those "glowy" colors. The formula on this color is perfect and does great in Two coats.
butter LONDON The Black Knight
The Black Knight is a Black jelly base packed, very densely, with Blue, Purple and Silver micro glitter. This polish has a bit of a tricky formula because it is slightly thick and so very packed with glitter. It is best to keep a light hand and wait between layers with this polish. The effect it creates is beautiful, like cosmic nails. I did Two and a half coats.
Butter LONDON has really grown on me over the past few months. I love their edgy colors and their naming skills. I'm a sucker for a polish with a good name and BL absolutely delivers in that area. I've also become quite enamored with the formula on these polishes since they are always so consistently great! I can say I am a fan...
Thoughts?

Looove the Black Knight color! Your swatches always make me want to buy more polish. They always look so good even if it's a color I normally don't like. haha
ReplyDeleteI own slapped and LOVE it! I know what you mean about their great formulas...they just sort of glide on :). I love your choices, they're all so pretty! I want Wallis next ;)
ReplyDeleteI am swooning! All Hail the Queen is such a subtle stunner, and The Black Knight desperately needs to be mine. And "Knees Up"? Heh, I love it. ;)
ReplyDeleteAll Hail the Queen is one of my absolute favorites! I can attest it is even more stunning in person.
ReplyDeleteDelicious eye candy! Your nails always look perfect! I don't have any Butter London in my stash but I will by this afternoon!!!! Thanks so much for taking the time to blog each day and post your gorgeous nail colors. Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI have All Hail McQueen and Black Knight on my wishlist as well. I need to just get them already!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty swatches! I have Black Knight, but I couldn't get it to look as smooth as you. I'll have to try the thin coats/let dry in between thing next time I wear it. Just wondering though, how do you do HALF a coat?? Haha! :)
ReplyDeleteAlso loving All Hail the Queen. I'm not normally a fan of nudes, but that is gorgeous with the holo!
You're making me a fan of them, and I can't afford that! Ahhh!
ReplyDeleteAll Hail the Queen was my very first lemming. I was so stoked when I got my paws on it!
ReplyDeleteI also love their names. I bought Bluey almost exclusively because if the name. Luckily, it's also a beautiful color. :)
I want The Black Knight so bad! It's so stunning.

Love your nails! And I JUST wore All Hail the Queen this past weekend, with LA Splash Golden Seahorse as accent nails. I looked at my nails constantly, especially when the sun came out (which wasn't much, thank you Trop Storm Debby :( )
ReplyDeleteYa, I might be obsessed with Knees Up - it's by far my most used red ever! Might need to buy a back up by Winter ;)
ReplyDeleteThey're all SO gorgeous! Especially the Black Knight <3
ReplyDeleteSo true! I didn't wanna keep swatching after I saw this on my nails. I just wanted to stop right there and do an All Hail the Queen Mani.
ReplyDeleteI love Black Knight, I just got it and it is currently on my nails!! Great swatches.
ReplyDeleteYou should of swatched All Hail The Queen last so you could of worn it longer! Great colours! Love Knees Up the best!
ReplyDeleteHow do your polished nails always look SO perfect?!
ReplyDeleteLove all of these. I have the Black Knight and AHTQ and they don't look nearly as good on me as they do on you!
ReplyDeleteI am a huge BL fan...ironically it started out with a bottle of their matte topcoat! But yes, I love the colors you swatched (great names too lol). I also love the new "primer basecoat" (slight tint to help w/ VNL), the PDQuick dry topcoat, and the "Horse Power" Nail "fertilizer". Always happy with them!
ReplyDeleteGah! I know lol.. I think this particular day I was on full on swatching machine mode and this was about 10 polishes in so I didn't want to stop there since I was still up to the task of swatching.
ReplyDeleteI am loving the black knight
ReplyDeleteButter London continually puts a large dent in my wallet. I love absolutely everything about them. The colours are great, the formula is wonderful, they wear well on me, and the bottles look adorable on my dresser when I forget to put them away. No, actually I lie. I don't forget- I leave them out on purpose. :D
ReplyDeleteOMG, The Black Knight is freakin' fantastic!!!! If only I had the money to spend on Butter London. Le Sigh. Perhaps I can save up for it, lol. I just have such a hard time paying so much for nail polish when there are other things that I actually need.
ReplyDeleteI don't have many BL polishes but the ones I own are all hits with me. I just recently acquired BL All Hail McQueen/The Queen and it's a stunner! And The Dark Knight is fabulous too. ^_^
ReplyDeleteI have Orly Night Owl which seems similar to AHTQ, and I def need TBK! Beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love the black glitter polish! You could find some fashionable clothes to match in your virtual closet! Create your closet here and see how many outfits go with your nail polish combos! http://tinyurl.com/fashionade-cw
ReplyDeleteKnees Up and The Black Knight are gorge! They're going on my never-ending want list :) xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love All Hail the Queen and Black Knight <3
ReplyDeleteI bought "Knees Up" because I am always a sucker for glowy red polishes (they always look perfect on toes).
ReplyDeleteWhen I cataloged the polish (yep, I have a collection large enough that it needs to be cataloged lol) a very close dupe for it.
