Okay so this is my first polish swatch so you'll have to bear with me while I improve my technique! I got two butterLONDON polishes at my local Ulta the other night and I. LOVED. THEM. They are all SO beautiful and they coat well and have so much sparkle. One thing I really like about the two I picked up is that they both have shimmer in them and unlike your standard shimmer polishes, these seem to really light up in the sun. The other great thing about the shimmer in these is that it sort of changes color in the light so it doesn't seem as one dimensional as shimmers sometimes can. No matter how you turn your hand or what light you're in this polish always looks great! It also looks amazing matte though I didn't get a picture of that. :(
The swatch today is Dosh. I've been salivating over this polish online for WEEKS now and I've been wanting to order it but $14 PLUS $8 shipping PLUS waiting for it to come in the mail seems a little not worth it. Especially as I'd never tried butterLONDON before and some of the other salon brands which get rave reviews, I'm not such a fan of (OPI for example). When I finally saw it in person I was a little worried. The website shows the picture above and lists it as "A molten apple green shot through with gold. DEEEELICIOUS!" Under the lights of my Ulta it was looking more like a limey-green with silvery shimmer. But it really does look like a green apple on your fingers! I used three coats (you could do two but I always do three on darker colors) and Seche Vite over the top.
This picture is with flash and the other is without. Both in artificial light. As usual, click on the pictures to see them larger :)
