Butter London by Gwyneth Paltrow for Goop and the Sweetie Shop Lacquer Collection.
How about these three beauties? Gwyneth Paltrow designed them for Goop, her own online Lifestyle magazine. Each week, Goop premieres one exclusive limited edition collaboration. Whether it’s a wardrobe staple, a home accessory, or a beauty must, they believe these are the curated essentials for you, your wardrobe and your home. Gwyneth started Goop in the fall of 2008 to share all of life’s positives. From creating a delicious recipe to finding a perfect dress for spring, she began curating the best of lifestyle to help her readers save time, simplify and feel inspired. Enough about Goop and on to the pretty polishes! Let me introduce you to the ”Trifecta of bespoke lacquers”, from left to right in the top three rows of pictures: Hampstead Heath which offers a mossy, green and gold shine, great for a holiday occasion. Abso-bloody-lutley which is the ultimate deep cherry opaque red and Bread & Butter pudding which is a sheer ivory cream. The latter one doesn’t really make me want to run out and buy it but man, that green and even that deep cherry red are delicious! If it wasn’t for the price I’d buy them I think. You can pick up the Goop and Butter London nail polish set for $36 at Goop.com.
Butter London also recently unveiled its Sweetie Shop Lacquer Collection, which will be available from January 2013. The new collection includes six shades influenced by the pastels of sweets such as cotton candy milkshakes and macaroons. Sounds wonderful doesn’t it? But will it look good in the bottle and on the nail? Well let’s have a look at these colors and find out!
The shades are from left to right:
- Jasper – A nice mellow yellow.
- Kerfuffle – A lovely shade of sherbet.
- Fiver – An icy mint color.
- Fruit Machine – A sweet bubblegum pink.
- Molly Coddled – A wonderful bright violet.
- Cuppa – A perfect tea with milk color, it doesn’t get more British than that.
The Sweetie Shop Lacquer Collection will be available from Boots, Harvey Nichols and butter LONDON’s website priced at £12 each. www.butterlondon.com

2 CommentsButter London releasing 3 Fall Macy exclusive shades!
Butter London is releasing 3 lovely shades that are exclusive to Macy’s in the USA, which means, because they sadly do not ship polish overseas, that most of us will just have to daydream about these. But I can’t help but share these with you because I have fallen head over heels with the purple one… Of course.

- Squatter is an opaque, lime green crème. The term used for someone who is staying (but not paying!) in a vacated location.
- Brummie is an opaque, bright purple crème. A colloquial term for the people, accent, and dialect of Birmingham, England.
- Cake Hole is an opaque, nearly neon hot pink. 1960′s Brit slang referring to ones mouth. It’s now mostly used as a juvenile colloquialism – “shut your cake-hole or I’m telling mum!”
Man I want it so badly I can taste it, I love both the green and the purple, and I love the pink for the name, it reminds me of Supernatural, something Dean would totally say to Sam… Yep, I’m a dork I can’t help it…
Pointless Café has done swatches of all three of these and I suggest you hurry over to see because they really are yummy!
Do you have any Butter London polishes yet? If so, which one? I’d love to know!
