Butter London Sparkle, Sparkle Holiday Lacquer Collection

I know this post is a little late, considering this was a holiday collection, but late has got to be better than never right?  I bought this Butter London set while in America (I cant actually remember anymore exactly where, but I think it might have been at Macy's in Vegas) for US$36. Rumours are that it is now selling for about half that price on clearance.

The back of the box says:

SPARKLE, SPARKLE!

This season is all about making a glittering statement. 

Turn up the fashion on your holiday wardrobe

with these gorgeous gems

Butter London Jack the Lad - sunshine

This is three coats. It is a dark green shimmery glitter that occasionally flashes lighter green and golden. 

Butter London Scuppered - Sunshine

This is also three coats, but this polish had a thin consistency.  It is a copper base, with fine copper and copper/pinky coloured shimmer and sporadic bits of slightly bigger green glitter.

Butter London Shambolic - Shade

I thought this polish would be my favourite of the set, but it turned out not to be (that honour went to Jack the Lad).  This is three coats.  There is little purple and pink glitter in a funny grey tinted base, with slightly bigger pink and lighter pink hexagon glitter.  The base colour is the thing that put me off this polish.

All up these are not my favourite Butter Londons, but I subcumbed to the glitter and sparkle in this set, and when in Vegas.....(also the fact that I got three for the price we pay for one Butter London polish here in New Zealand I cant complain).

Lots of Love

Deborah Lippmann Rock This Town Set

Rock This Town is a three piece set of metallic polishes by Deborah Lippmann that is exclusive to Nordstrom.  I bought this set while I was on holiday in America, actually this exact set came from Vegas.

Deborah Lippmann Moon Dance - Natural Light

Moon Dance is described as a deep lavender swirl (glimmer).  This is three coats.  To be honest I am not a fan. It is thin and has a grey base to it.  It has lavender glitter and a smaller amount of copper glitter.

Deborah Lippmann Chain Reaction - Natural Light

Chain Reaction is described as a dirty brass (glimmer).  This one did have a dirty base colour, kind of a grey/green mix and is full of grassy green glitter.  This is three coats.

Deborah Lippmann Phoenix Rising - Natural Light

Phoenix Rising is described as a foxy copper (glimmer).  Interesting descriptions really aren't they?  This is my favourite of the three. This is three coats. This one has a pinky orange base and is full of copper and gold glitter.

Lots of Love
