Butter London "Marrow"

Ordered this online along with the beige Alexander McQueen one. Very satisfied with experience, even if it's full retail. (ouch) Ships from Richmond for all you Canadian girls, and was less than 10 for two bottles. It came in a box for 3 so I would imagine that's the cost for 3 as well. Although at 17 bucks a pop can we be friends if you buy that many?


On to my absolutely horrifc scarring awful swatches of "Marrow" . I was first inspired to lust after seeing images of this on AllLaqueredup.com and now that I have it I can't remember why. I think I thought it was more taupe then purple. The polish in bottle contains a pearlescent sheen that doesn't really translate onto the nail. I'm in the process of moving so almost all of my comparison purples are packed. But it's a dark greyed cool purple with pink and purple shimmer. Shimmer not so visible to naked eye.  As with all of my BL polishes the application is very smooth and is opaque in two coats.



Is it a "must have" like I felt it was when I saw on ALU? Not so sure.  What do you think?
