The formula on this polish is a bit streaky. It's definitely not one of Butter London's better-formulated polishes. I needed 3 coats for complete opacity.
I love mint polishes in general so this one was a winner for me.

I'm still in the process of comparing this with all my other mint polishes. However, through looking at some of the swatches, I cannot find a single dupe in my collection. It's bluer than some, but not as blue as others. Comparison post to come!
[Edit (05.29): per comment request, here is a quick comparison w/ Essie's "Mint Candy Apple"]
I hope that helps!
very pretty! i do wonder how it compares to others :)
ReplyDeleteOh I have been lemming this for forever and a half!
ReplyDeleteDo you have Essie's Mint Candy Apple? I have the Essie and just wanted to know how they compared.
Mint Candy Apple is quite a bit bluer. I added a quick swatch for you. (:
DeleteWow! Based on photos, I always thought they'd be the same but not close at all! Yes, purchase justified!
DeleteThank you so much for taking the time to add the swatch in!
Beautiful pics ;) Can't wait to see your comparison post, because I cannot decide... to buy or not to buy xD
ReplyDeleteI will try and have them up in the next week. Hopefully, it'll clear up some temptations for you. (:
