I'm Swatchin' You - Butter London All Hail the Queen

I am so excited to be showing you my first Butter London!  I decided to show you my absolute favorite BL color, which is All Hail the Queen, a very subtle neutral holo.

For such a light color, application was quite nice.  I thought there would be a lot of streaking and balding.  One thing that is lovely about BL is their formula.  This applied evenly, and builds nicely.  I did my usual two coats here, but I do think a third coat would really solidify the color, and show its true beauty.



For those of you who are not familiar with this brand, it is a bit on the pricier side.  It retails for $14, but they do have some truly beautiful colors.  I go for BL when I want to splurge a bit.  And like I said, the formula is really great.  I have heard of some people avoiding BL because they think it would be too difficult to apply using a square applicator.  Never fear...it's just a square cap.  There is a little round handle for the applicator.  Personally, I feel it's a little too small, but that really doesn't make too big of a difference.

SH Double Duty and Insta-Dri for base and top.
