Let's all take a moment to thank Liesl at LieslLovesPrettyThings for making this post possible:) I found out about this awesome polish from Liesl and as soon as I saw it on her blog, it went straight on my wish list.
This is Butter London Shag
This is Butter London's description of Shag: "A high-shine, warm orange-burgundy metallic nail lacquer. Reminiscent of fallen Autumn leaves. Sigh." Perfect description and yes, I do "sigh" when I look at it. This reminds me of OPI Warm & Fozzie, but it's more metallic than glittery.
The application was wonderful, this is two coats. I love the Butter London brush. It's stiffer and gives me great control when applying their polish. I decided to wear this two days and added a third coat for the second day. The third coat made it a little darker and it gave it more of a reddish tone. I may throw on 3 coats next time I wear it.
I wanted to mention one more thing. As you may know, I always kept my blog a secret from my "real life" family and friends. Now that my mom has found out, we have had a great time talking about nail polish and sharing this fun little hobby. Another awesome benefit is that she knows where to look for my wish list and knocked 3 polishes off of my list for Christmas. I got this one, OPI Mod About You, and Essie Bikini So Teeny. Thanks mom! :)
Have a nice day everyone!
This is a beautiful polish!

DeleteHi, Essie. Hope you had a good Xmas. I love shag. It so pretty too bad I already did my daily mani. I've been wanting to wear it but I always end up doing something else.
ReplyDeleteI find myself doing that too. I did have a good Christmas. I hope you did too. Thanks for commenting!
