whilst a thoroughly enjoyed my time in london, it was time to come home. check out my previous blog to find out my favorites for September during my #monthofbutterlondon! for now, put on that light jacket and unpack your boots, because you've already missed some of the fall semester, and your guidance counselor isn't interested in your damned excuses! it's time for autumn 🍂 polishes!! swatch bucket: I have put all of my yet-to-wear polishes into a nifty dollar-tree bucket! in this stash, I have all manner of colors and brands. while most are cremes, and shmost are "cruelty-free" 😇, some i purchased quite a while ago ... like before I committed to a 🐰 lifestyle. my goal is to give a full wear to all of these polishes, even those that make me sad 👿 i am really bad about wearing all of the nail polish I purchase: some have been waiting for me for over a year!! here is the beginning of my swatch-bucket journey! "gelato in venice" by julie g 😇 i want this creamy mint creme on a cone! so tasty and so easy to wear in my transition to fall. subtle enough to be classy. just off neutral enough to feel daring. "celtic sun" by china glaze 😇 layered over white, this neon yellow (from my lemmings list) had a terrific formula. a firmly summer style polish, i barely snuck (or sneaked) this polish in before the weather turned cooler. i had great expectations and it did not disappoint. my search for a neon yellow is over! "small+cute=💟" by opi 👿 admittedly, i bought this shortly after my 🐰 commitment. i really wanted something from the 2016 hello kitty collection and this polish in particular. i picked this up on sale tj maxx and didn't look back. (i m so ashamed). i have many polishes in my collection that are this shade of pink with a hint of orange, but they lean either far lighter or slightly deeper. i have heard that zoya's "dot" 😇 comes close in color, but has a disappointing formula. if you know of a dupe, pleeeezzzz let meh know. this shade of pink is so interesting, i must have ... but i want to turn my 👿 into 😇. "keks" butterLONDON 😇 so ... I left my heart in london this fall. i only used "keks" for nail art this september, thus I had to take the opportunity to wear it as a traditional mani asap. beautiful in one coat! the only downside: it was a major stain-fest upon removal. for this striking blue, i am already over it. 😉 "hunter" zoya 😇❤️
okay ... I have a type! after "british racing green" by butterLONDON 😇 was my september fav, this deep grass green looker is my "must-fav" for this week. this is why all my boyfriends have been capricorns! 😳this leans more mossy than "brg" but both are the same basic idea: a deep dark green that glides on perfectly in one to two coats and charms my panties right off. its like watching "stranger things" on netflix: it's totally derivative, but that is what you love ❤️ about it! this polish makes me want to monster hunt in the upside-down. this october, ill be diving into the swatch bucket and pulling out my halloween favs! what are your fav spooky polishes or nail art? let me know in the comments! thanks for reading and have a great week!
