My New Year’s Eve mani! I used Nuance “Midnight Blackberry” and Butter London “West End Wonderland.” I am also finding Butter London’s matte, peach-toned Nail Foundation to be indispensable as a base coat – especially when using dark colors that can stain nails.
My only complaint about the Nuance nail polishes is that the formula is thick and hard to put on. It also takes a long time to dry. I love the colors but I wish they would tweak the formula a bit. They are inexpensive though and you can find them at CVS.
Butter London polishes are expensive but amazing. I want to own all of them!
Happy New Year!

Love your posts beauty bunny!! I’ve been creulity free for a month and a half now and im loveing it!! I wish i would have found out about animal testing sooner! Hope big companies (and all comlanies) will stop testing on the poor animals. Keep up the posts!

Is it a crime that I haven’t tried Butter London polishes!? I really want to though!!
chiefbunny says
Yes – definitely a crime! 🙂

Nuance is also bunny friendly? I’ve never heard of it…Did you try polish thinner to make it a little easier to apply? I don’t often get into CVS and I live in a really small town so they may not have them here anyways, but I am always interested to know about new affordable nail polishes to feed my addiction. I was just wondering what you tried? Did you do a quick dry top coat?
I love the look by the way, I just had a ton of questions! Sorry! 🙂
Congrats, DD! Welcome to the fold! Cruelty free is just a good way. And not as difficult as it used to be. This blog is a really great source of information!
Katherine, please run, do not walk, run to get your first butters. You won’t regret it! (They do their best with their own base coat, but if not use a strong top coat, if I can offer that advice.)
chiefbunny says
Yep – they are cruelty free and sold at CVS. I should try polish thinner – I didn’t know that existed!
chiefbunny says
Oh and Tricksie – I used a Butter London top coat. 🙂
