Butter LONDON's Brown Sugar Review












Butter LONDON's Brown Sugar is from their new Bespoke Colour Cosmetics line. I am obsessed with this color. In the bottle it looks like it shifts from a burnished copper to a plum with gold flecks. Incredibly well suited for Autumn, it's like the essence of fallen leaves in a bottle.

When I was sent products from the Bespoke Colour line,  I was hoping and praying that I got this nail polish! The name is fabulous and when I saw a preview on Butter London's Instagram, I knew it was the color for me.

When I put on the first coat, it seemed like a dupe for Zoya's Faye, so I was excited to do a comparison post on the two! However, as I put on more coats, it was obvious that these were completely different polishes.

It's Butter LONDON, so of course, the formula was amazing. I put on three thin coats, even with the gold flecks the end result was a smooth application. It was not gritty at all. I highly recommend this product and all Butter LONDON products in general. It's just an amazing brand with amazing products.

Review

I love all of the products from Butter London's new Bespoke Colour Line. Both Mascaras gave my lashes volume but not length. The color pay off for Indigo Punk is great, very vibrant. I would have liked the Union Jack Black mascara to be even blacker.

The cream Shadow in Indigo Punk is one of the best products in this line, it's easily blendable and has amazing staying power. I wore this look for most of the day and the cream shadow didn't budge.

The cream blush in Honey Pie is SO smooth. It blended out so well, that you can barely see it on my face. I think i'll need to put on more of the product in order to achieve the color pay off that I want. 

The tinted balm in Axis Kiss is incredibly moisturizing. The color is a gorgeous berry, and I think it looks more like a sheer lipstick than a tinted balm! It's great!

(How many times can I say "great" and "color pay off"?!)

I love this look but I feel as if just wearing the Indigo punk mascara and cream shadow on my lash line made it look like I have bags under my eyes. Next time, I'll put a little black eyeliner in my water line.

This collection made it's official debut yesterday, August first, so tell me if you picked up any of the products and how you'll like them!!!

Butter LONDON New Bespoke Colour Cosmetics

*WARNING : Extremely picture heavy*

Recently, a few bloggers and I were chosen to review some products from the new Bespoke Colour Cosmetics line by Butter LONDON (Available to everyone August 1). I am very excited to show you lovelies swatches of the products I received.

First, I'd like to say that Butter LONDON packaged the cosmetics amazingly. The box was inside a bigger box filled with bubble wrap and the products inside the official bL box were also encased in sealed bubble wrap. None of the products even had a chance at being broken. (And they had the cutest leopard print paper!)



There was a pamphlet inside that showcased looks created by Katie Jane Hughes, bL's Global Colour Ambassador. They have face charts and real models to show the looks.

The packaging of the actual products are SO CUTE. they have a matte black outside but when you open it there is their signature tree with butterflies and birds. Adorable.






I received nine products:

1. Wink Eye Pencil in Union Jack Black
2. Wink Eye Pencil in Indigo Punk
3. Wink Colour Mascara in Union Jack Black
4. Wink Colour Mascara in Indigo Punk
5. Lippy Lip Gloss in Hot Totty
6. Wink Cream Eye Shadow in Indigo Punk
7. Lippy Tinted Balm in Axis Kiss
8. Cheeky Cream Blush in Honey Pie
9. Butter LONDON nail varnish in Brown Sugar









Now onto the swatches!!!



I will be doing a series of FOTDs featuring Butter London's Bespoke Colour Cosmetics (tagged #bLrock) where I will review the products in detail.

Hoped you liked this preview!
