Coterie & butter LONDON Collaboration...Swatches

In the spirit of NY Fashion Week, and to celebrate the launch of www.coterie.com several beauty bloggers were invited to preview Coterie's first campaign featuring butter LONDON.  In return, we received a selection from the butter LONDON Ready-to-Wear collection. 

We were able to select from the 6 Ready-to-Wear collection.  1, All Hail The Queen was already part of my collection, so I chose Bluey, which I had been wanting for ages, Pillar Box Red, and Knackered. Along with the 3 we selected, we also received a bottle of the butter LONDON Matte Finish Top Coat.

The first shade I jumped at was Bluey. As I mentioned previously, this had been a shade I had wanted for some time. It is described as "A slightly metallic, dark peacock blue".  It is very sheer and required 3 coats to achieve this level of opacity. Nonetheless, it was well worth the wait. I love these peacock blues and  butter LONDON does not disappoint.


As we are heading into Autumn now, it is the perfect time for me to start sporting matted nails. And butter LONDON has provided me with their Matte Top Coat. Bluey mattified is gorgeous!

Next, is Pillar Box Red. This is just the perfect, true cream red. A classic, necessity for every polish collection.


And mattifed...it looks like velvet.


Lastly, I chose the iridescent, holographic, duochrome Knackered. With those adjectives, who could pass this one up, LOL! The butter LONDON website describes it as "A sheer, twinkling oyster shade flecked with micro glitter particles... duochrome."  This is very sheer polish. As pictured this is 2 coats, so it would definitely take 4-5 coats to achieve an opaque application.


And mattifed, I achieved an iridescent dove gray.  


So these are 3 butter LONDON polishes I gladly added to my butter LONDON collection.  Thanks to Coterie.
Did you get in on either of the Coterie/butter London specials?  If so, what colors did you select?
