Butter London The Black Knight
I was SO excited for this polish. I don't know what exactly disappointed me about it. It just was somehow less sparkly, less alive than I thought it'd be. Kept on applying coats, trying to make it more awesome. (I think I stopped at four. What? It works with other glitters...) Purple blue and silver glitter in a black base. Slightly gritty. Eats topcoat like a glitter.
This is really pretty! I actually don't have it, but I do have Pure Ice Private Show which is a much cheaper dupe.
ReplyDeleteI also felt the same kind of let down. It wasn't anything specific, but it was there. It is very pretty, but something is missing.
ReplyDeleteThank you for slaying a lemming.
ReplyDeleteThis was a must have for me and I finally gave in and paid the $14 for it. That is the first time I ever paid more than $8 for a polish. That was 6 months ago, and I have worn it once. It was super chiptastic and although absolutely gorgeous on, it was not an easy formula to apply, I didn't like the little brush or cap at all, and just haven't used it since. So it sits in a drawer of other polishes gathering dust and slowly separating. Sad story but true.
ReplyDeletePretty!
ReplyDeletei was disappointed when i got this too, but now i do 2 topcoats right after i paint them: gelous (from sally's) and then seche vite. the next day, i put another coat of gelous. gelous (lots of it!) seems to do the trick in making it super shiny, like glass, like how it should be. i've had a guy remark on how sparkly my polish was during an elevator ride! hope this helps you all love the polish more!
ReplyDeleteI have considered doing what people do with the super dark A. Englands-lightly run a pad with remover over it, removes just a bit of the polish, but leaves the glitter. Then topcoat(s).
ReplyDeleteI too was sooo disappointed with this color. I bought it during Ulta's days of beauty.
ReplyDeleteIn general I was disappointed with Butter Londons overall. The formula was mediocre and brush was fair. Maybe I bought into the hype that they were super awesome? I'll stick to my OPIs/China Glazes instead...
