Butter

Butter is the most fashionable brand of beauty products this season. In the photo you can see my new Butter nail polish. When I first wore it to class last Tuesday, students kept grabbing my hands to see it because it’s pretty.

And this is how fresh and recent it looks on Day 5 of wear. Of course, it’s a lot expensive than regular nail polish. However, I’m not rich enough to buy cheap polish that will start chipping on Day 2.

Nothing is worse than high-maintenance polish that requires constant attention after you apply it. The ideal polish gives you no reason to think about it for days on end. You end up using a lot less of it because it requires no touch-ups, so it isn’t really that much more expensive than the cheap flakey brands.

The color I’m wearing here is Molly Coddled but I will show others when this one wears off.

    I wonder how deep their black is. Always hard to find a black nailpolish that’s not translucent unless applied in industrial quantities.

      I haven’t tried black but it’s tempting.

    Is it a gel nail polish? Do you need a special lamp for it to dry?

      No, it’s a regular polish. I never tried the gel kind.

      If Pushkin thought one can be a valuable person and care about the beauty of one’s nails at the same time, then so can I. 🙂
