After swatching some of my Fall nail polish picks, I decided that I had to wear Butter London Toff on all of my nails.
What a wonderful application this was. I could have been done with one coat; but of course, applied two. It was so creamy and shiny.
I went over to the Butter London site to see how they described Toff and here is what they said "A darker, dustier, brownish variation on a rose pink nail lacquer. Stop to smell them. The roses, not the toffs." After reading this description, I couldn't help myself and had to Google "Toff". So here is the definition: "A member of the upper classes, especially one who is elegantly dressed." After this intense research, I decided that "Toff" is a great name for this polish. I wore this to my daughter's play today and felt pretty elegant wearing it:)
After applying Toff, I was reminded that it looked a heck of a lot like Essie Angora Cardi. In the bottle, they look pretty darn close. I will do a comparison swatch for you in the near future. I also received a new Julep shade that looks very similar too. I hope to find some dupes for you in case you don't feel like spending $14 on the Butter London.
Thanks for stopping by!
This is gorgeous! I've always kind of written Toff off, but I'm reconsidering that now, it's so pretty!
ReplyDeleteYes, it kindof gets lost in the shuffle when you are looking at all of the other exciting colors. It's a hidden treasure:)
Deletei just tried toff and fell in love!!!! it's seriously an amazing color and great application!!! thanks for such a great review :) happy saturday
ReplyDeleteOh cool. Yes, it is a really pretty color and it is a wonderful formula. I'm happy I picked it up:) Hope you had a great weekend.
DeleteToff is a pretty color, it's the perfect "in-between pink & red color"
ReplyDeleteExactly. Not too red, not too pink:)
DeleteI love Toff! It is so perfect for fall. Can't wait to see the Angora Cardi comparison =)
ReplyDeleteSounds good. It will be coming next:)
DeleteI regret passing up Toff. Its gorgeous! Hopefully Angora is a cheaper version though!
ReplyDeleteI'll post the comparison soon. I found another possible dupe so I was to re-swatch everything. Hopefully I can do it tonight...even though I broke another nail:(
DeleteI LOVE it. Toff's a beautiful color and it looks just amazing on you. <3
ReplyDeleteAh thanks:) I did this one for you!
Delete:) :)
Deletecan't wait to see the comparison!!! I have Essie and now I need to know if I need Butter London too =)
ReplyDeleteI am going to do it today after work...
DeleteI have never really been a fan of Butter London-doesn't stay on my nails-I would love to see a comparison-because I may like that Essie
ReplyDeleteI'm not a huge fan of mauve nails OR butter london (I think they're too overpriced) but I do like this particular shade! It looks really good on you.
