Our Favourite Spooky Season Nail Colours

by Sigrun Hjartardottir on Oct 05 2023
Halloween is only a few short weeks away, which means it’s time to figure out our costume and most importantly, our manicure! Whether you are going all out with your Halloween costume this year, or if you are going to throw on some cat ears and call it a day, here are our favourite Patent Shine Nail Lacquer hues to wear this October. Union Jack Black We couldn’t list our favourite manicure colours for Halloween without starting with a classic black! Union Jack Black Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer is a true black crème that is perfect for this haunted holiday. Union Jack Black is a versatile shade and can be worn alone as an all-black manicure, or can be used with shade Cotton Buds Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer to create different nail designs with our Signature Nail Art Tools 3-piece nail design brushes. The Stippling Brush included in this kit is perfect for drawing an eerie spiderweb on your nails, and the Dotter Tool is great for drawing a spooky ghost design! Proper Do Another colour we love for the Halloween season is a deep purple, such as Proper Do Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer. This rich purple crème is an effortlessly moody hue that combines the warmth of red and the calm blues to add sophistication and a sense of luxury to this ghostly holiday. You can wear Proper Do on its own, or you can use the Signature Nail Art Tools to create designs such as paint drops or bats! Pop Orange Orange is a colour that is associated with Halloween, which is why we had to include Pop Orange Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer in our Halloween manicure inspo! This light tangerine crème is perfect to add some festive spirit to your nails. We love using Pop Orange with our Signature Nail Art Tools to create fun pumpkin designs for a spooky pumpkin patch-inspired mani! All You Need is Love The last Halloween-inspired nail colour we recommend is All You Need is Love Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer! This glamorous rainbow glitter overcoat adds a fun pop of sparkle for a Halloween manicure that shines. We love using this show-stopping shade on its own for a full glitter moment, or layering it on top of other Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer hues, such as Brolly Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer or Bonkers Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer.

Cuticle Care 101

by Sigrun Hjartardottir on Sep 25 2023
Taking care of your cuticles is important to help promote nail growth and protect your nails for a healthy-looking manicure. This week in the blog, we are going through our must-have products to help keep your cuticles healthy and hydrated all year long! Step 1: Melt Away The first step to our cuticle care routine is Melt Away Cuticle Exfoliator! This nail treatment gently removes dry, overgrown cuticles with no cutting required! This Cuticle Exfoliator goes on easily and is formulated with plant-based conditioning ingredients that help soften and gently exfoliate cuticles with each use. To use, brush an even layer of Melt Away around the cuticles and nail beds. After approx. 60 seconds, gently push cuticles back with our Signature Glass Cuticle Pusher (not included) before removing excess product with a Nail Scrubber 2-in-1 Wipe (not included). Step 2: Manicure Candle Once your cuticles are exfoliated, it’s time to add some luxury to your at-home manicure routine! Our Chelsea Blooms Manicure Candle is an intensive nail & skin treatment created from a natural skin-softening blend of Soybean and Coconut Oils that perfectly melts into a soothing and conditioning massage treatment. Formulated with a fresh floral scent, this manicure candle is a must for moisturized skin. To use, snip the tip of the wick before each use, then light the candle and allow the wax to melt the entire top layer of the candle. Blow out the candle and then the melted oil is then ready to be used! Pour oil directly onto hands and gently massage it in for a hydrating treatment. Step 3: Cuticle Oil or Cuticle Balm Once your cuticles are exfoliated and your hands are moisturized, it’s time to help lock in hydration with a cuticle oil or balm! QuickFix Moisturizing Cuticle Balm helps prevent the look of drying cuticles with ultra-moisturizing Coconut and Avocado Oils. Quick Slip Cuticle Oil with Coconut Oil helps protect, replenish, and strengthen the look of cuticles with Safflower Oil and Jojoba Oil for immediate and lasting hydration. To use QuickFix, squeeze a pin-sized amount of product onto the no-mess cuticle cream massager and apply to cuticles. To use Quick Slip, gently squeeze the tube for the oil to flow onto the brush and brush along the cuticles. Both QuickFix and Quick Slip work well together for the ultimate cuticle care duo!

Our Favourite Nail Lacquer Cocktails

by Sigrun Hjartardottir on Aug 15 2023
With endless choices of different nail lacquer colours, it can be difficult to choose just one. However, choosing a colour based on your favourite cocktail can make it more fun! This week in the blog, we put together four cocktail-inspired nail looks for your next cheeky mani/pedi. One Espresso Martini, Please! Our new indulgent Boozy Chocolate Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer is the *perfect* colour to give yourself an espresso martini-inspired manicure! This brown earthy tone nail lacquer is inspired by your favourite decadent chocolate treats, making this the perfect choice for your next boozy mani. Start with one coat of Horse Power Nail Rescue Basecoat, allowing it to dry before applying two coats of Boozy Chocolate. Once Boozy Chocolate has dried, top it off with a coat of Hardwear Shine UV Top Coat for a glossy, long-lasting mani. When Life Gives You Limes, Make Margaritas! Up next for our drink-inspired manicures, we have a classic margarita with salt on the rim with Garden Party Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer and Bespoke Lace Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer! Garden Party is an energetic green with a hint of lime, while Bespoke Lace is a sheer white overcoat that leaves behind a delicate design on the nail. These colours are the perfect combo for a margarita-inspired mani. Start with one coat of Horse Power Nail Rescue Basecoat, allowing it to dry before applying two coats of Garden Party.

4 Ways to Use the Bestselling Mellow the Yellow

by Sigrun Hjartardottir on Jun 26 2023
Our Mellow The Yellow Nail Brightening Treatment is a bestseller for a reason! We love the benefits of this nail lacquer as it helps conceal any yellow on the nails while also leaving behind a pearlescent white colour. While Mellow The Yellow works great for a nail treatment, this versatile colour is also perfect for different trendy nail designs. To see the 4 ways we used Mellow The Yellow, keep on reading! The Go-To Mellow The Yellow Application Mellow The Yellow is best known for its ability to help brighten the look of yellowing nails. The opalescent Nail Brightening Treatment gently exfoliates dry, damaged nails to not only conceal the yellow upon application, but it also targets the root of the problem. Formulated with Lemon Fruit Extract, Vitamin E and Red Algae, this skin-conditioning treatment leaves nails brighter, smoother, and more renewed. Use 2-3 coats of Mellow The Yellow by itself to give nails a shimmery opalescent pearly white colour and also treat the nails at the same time! A Minimalist Mellow Mani Another way you can use Mellow The Yellow is a shimmery French manicure! We love that the French manicure trend is coming back but in a new, trendy way. Instead of using a traditional sheer/nude base coat for your manicure, try using Mellow The Yellow instead! Begin by applying one to two coats of Mellow the Yellow as your base coat. Next, using Cotton Buds Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer and our Signature Nail Art Tools, draw a thin line on the tips of each nail with the stippling brush. Clean up any lacquer that may have gotten ‘outside the lines’ with the cleanup brush before sealing in your mani with Hardwear Shine UV Top Coat. A Very Mellow Mani Another way that we love to use Mellow the Yellow is to create a simple yet chic “less is more” manicure! To achieve this manicure, begin by choosing a neutral or a light pink nail colour. We love using our Sheer Wisdom Nail Tinted Moisturizers, Sandy Bum Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer, or Mums the Word Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer as a neutral base. Once the base colour is on, apply one to two coats of Mellow The Yellow Nail Brightening Treatment to add an opalescent shimmer to your barely-there mani. Top if off with Hardwear Shine UV Topcoat to add a high shine finish to complete your simple yet shimmery mani! Must-Have Mellow Nail Art Last but not least, we have show-stopping nail art featuring Mellow the Yellow! Begin by applying 2 coats of High Street Crème Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer on the thumb, middle finger, and pinky. On your pointer finger and ring finger, apply 2 coats of Mellow The Yellow to give nails a pearly colour. Next, using our stippling brush and High Street Crème, coat only the tip of your pointer finger for a French tip. On your ring finger with our dotting brush, use shade Trout Pout Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer and Pop Orange Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer to draw 5 dots in a circle to mimic a flower. Draw 2 flowers with Trout Pout and 2 flowers with Pop Orange on the tip of the ring finger. Let dry. To complete your flowers, use Waterloo Blue Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer with the dotting brush and add a blue dot at the center of each flower. Seal in this cheeky manicure with our Hardwear Shine UV Topcoat.   To see more bestselling Tinted Nail Treatments, or other Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquers, head to butterlondon.com

Once nails are clean, apply one coat of our fan-favorite Horse Power Nail Rescue Basecoat to act as a protective primer for your nails. Fun Colours for Summer Once your nails are prepped thanks to the You're So Pedi kit, it's time to add some colour. The best part of a new season is choosing new nail lacquers! We love wearing bright and fun colours during the warm summer season. Here are some of our favourite nail lacquer shades to try out before sealing in your colour with Hardwear Shine UV Topcoat to help prevent fading: Pop Orange Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer: This light tangerine crème is the perfect hue to lay by the pool as this energetic colour exudes feelings of excitement, enthusiasm, and warmth.

This week in the blog, we are going to be going through the ultimate at-home pedicure routine to ensure that your feet are ready to see the sun this season.   First Things First: Exfoliate If your feet are looking a bit dry or if you have a few unsightly calluses, try So Buff Hand and Foot Polish with Glycolic Acid! This dual-action, fast-acting hand, foot and body scrub combines the power of 7% Glycolic Acid with eco-friendly Apricot Seed Powder, Sunflower and antioxidant-rich Green Tea Leaf Extract to physically exfoliate away bumps associated with KP, strawberry skin, roughness and dead skin to reveal healthier-looking skin that feels exceptionally smooth.

Why Your Manicures Don’t Last as Long in the Winter

by Grace Allen on Feb 27 2023
We know that the chilly Winter temperatures can be hard on our skin, but did you know the cold weather also has an effect on our nails? As the weather continues to cool, your nail polish has a harder time adhering to your nails for a multitude of reasons that go along with the frosty temps. This week in the blog, we are going to be diving into why your nail lacquer tends to chip more frequently in the Winter, as well as how to help solve this dilemma.   Hand Washing While cooler weather comes with cozy scarves and beanies, the cold temperatures can also make us more susceptible to maybe catching a cold or coming down with the flu. A way most of us try to combat this is by regularly washing our hands to try to kill any germs—which is great! However, the more frequently we are exposing our hands to water, the more water our nails are absorbing. The more water your nails absorb, the more they are prone to peeling and breaking. As an alternative to constant hand washing, try our Super Clean No Rinse Cleansing Hand Crème! With 62% alcohol and skincare-infused ingredients, this non-drying formula is perfect for any time you want to clean your hands without disrupting your manicure.   Fluctuating Temperatures When it is freezing outside, it is only natural to want to be cozied up next to a heater once you get indoors! However, with the constant change in humidity and temperature, the polish on your nails is having to expand and contract depending on the weather, which can cause your nail polish to chip and lift. To help solve this dilemma, we recommend applying a base coat to your nails to help promote stronger nails. Our Horse Power Nail Rescue Base Coat helps protect both healthy and brittle nails against future damage and prevent nail breakage. This powerful, good-for-your nails butter LONDON base coat is infused with Horsetail Extract, Biotin, along with fortifying Vitamin B and Calcium to help transform, restore, and rescue damaged, weak nails.   Dryness It is nothing new that skin tends to get drier in the Winter time, but did you know that your nails can also get dry? Nails get dry from a variety of reasons, whether it be hand warmers, frequent hand washing, or a lack of moisture. When nails get too dry, they tend to get thin and brittle. This results in nail polish peeling and chipping off of nails in a short amount of time. To help solve this issue, try our Sheer Wisdom Nail Tinted Moisturizer! Formulated with a blend of skin-pampering ingredients, this technology-based, hybrid nail treatment helps revive, strengthen and prevent breakage as it coats nails with a barely there, a sheer tint. This Nail Tinted Moisturizer is perfect to put your manicure back on the right-track for a healthier look.   In need of some TLC At times during the winter, the humidity and moisture levels in the air tend to drop, resulting in dry air. This causes your nails to become brittle and dehydrated, which can cause your manicure to crack and peel. Just like your skin, your nails typically need more attention in the cooler months. Just like you protect your skin from wind chills and harsh temperatures with layers of moisturizers and serums, your nails need the same care! To help solve the issue of nails in need of some TLC, we recommend our Champagne Fizz Manicure Candle to give your hands and nails some much needed moisture. Our Nail & Skin Treatment Candle is created from a natural skin-softening blend of Soybean Oil and Coconut Oil that perfectly melts into a soothing and conditioning massage treatment.

How to Perfect Your Waterless Manicure - butter LONDON

How to Perfect Your Waterless Manicure

by Grace Allen on Nov 18 2022
A waterless manicure is a traditional manicure without the addition of water. This means that nails are not soaked in water before beginning the manicure, but the rest of the manicure process remains the same. When soaking hands in water during a manicure, the nail absorbs the water and then becomes damp and expands due to water absorption. Once the nail returns to its natural form when the water has dried, the polish is not able to move with the nail—which is what causes chips in nail lacquer. A waterless manicure helps nail lacquer last longer on the nail as it helps to prevent any chipping due to the nail remaining in the same state throughout the manicure. If you want to learn how to perform your own waterless manicure at home, follow the steps below: Step 1: Clean Your Hands Before beginning any other manicure prep, it is important to make sure that your hands are clean of any residue. Apply a few drops of Super Clean No Rinse Cleansing Hand Crème and massage evenly onto hands, nails, and cuticles to help keep hands and nails clean with a 62% alcohol formula and an enchanting rose scent. Step 2: Cuticle Care Having clean cuticles is key to having a good manicure. To ensure that our cuticles are taken care of, apply Melt Away Cuticle Exfoliator to cuticles to gently remove dry, overgrown cuticles without having to cut the cuticles. After applying Melt Away and waiting 2 minutes for the Cuticle Exfoliator to soak into cuticles, use a Signature Glass Cuticle Pusher to gently push back cuticles to help create the appearance of longer, healthier-looking nails.  Step 3: Scrub Your Nails Once hands are clean from Super Clean and cuticles are pushed back, use our Nail Scrubbers to remove any old nail lacquer or residue from Melt Away and prep nails with a boost of Vitamin E and Aloe to hydrate nails and cuticles  Step 4: Prime Before going in with a nail colour, we need to prime the nails to help prep nails for a longer-lasting manicure. Award winning Horse Power Nail Rescue Basecoat leaves nails restored, revitalized and healthier-looking with good-for-nail ingredients such as Horsetail Extract, Biotin, Vitamin B and Calcium. Step 5: Time for Colour! Now that nails are cleansed and primed, it is time to go in with one to two coats of our Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer peoducts. Each of our nail lacquer hues are proven to promote brighter, stronger, healthier-looking nails with a gel-like finish and undeniable wear. Whether you choose a nail colour from our fall collections or a classic cheeky red in honour of the upcoming holidays, all Patent Shine 10X formulas will help smooth and strengthen nails with each chip-resistant coat.  Step 6: Lock It In To extend the life of your manicure, apply one coat of our high-performance Hardwear Shine UV Topcoat to lock in nail colour and help prevent fading. This ultra-glossy top coat is chip resistant and leaves nails with a brilliant shine. Step 7: Quick Dry Our P.D. Quick Dry Conditioning Drops help accelerate nail lacquer dry time so you can go about your day without having to wait longer than necessary for your nails to dry. This dry oil serum helps prevent nicks and smudges in nail lacquer while helping to condition nails and cuticles. Step 8: Moisturize the Cuticles Once nails are fully dry, go in with a pin-size amount of QuickFix Moisturizing Cuticle Balm to deliver moisture to dry cuticles with a non-greasy formula. Formulated with Coconut Oil and Avocado Oil, the no-mess cuticle massager hugs dry cuticles to help deliver maximum absorption. Step 9: The Final Step To complete your waterless manicure, apply our Extra Whip Hand and Foot Treatment to indulge in uber-rich hydration. Formulated with moisture-locking ingredients such as Shea Butter and Cocoa Seed Butter, Extra Whip helps leave skin feeling softer and smoother after use. If you try out this waterless manicure, be sure to tag us @butterLONDON on social media so we can check out your nail looks!
Stay Hydrated from Head to Toe All Winter Long - butter LONDON

Stay Hydrated from Head to Toe All Winter Long

by Grace Allen on Nov 10 2022
Winter is almost here! We love the holidays and festive activities and cozy nights in, but we don’t always love the harsh weather and dry skin that often comes along with it. This week in the blog, we are going to be going through 6 wintertime essential items to help ensure that you stay hydrated during the chilly season ahead. Give ‘Em Some Lip To start our Winter full of hydration, let’s begin with the lips. Having dry, peeling lips is not only potentially painful but it also makes lipstick application more difficult. To help prevent this, we recommend LIPPY Lip Balm Pink Champagne Treatment to swipe on your lips to provide much needed moisture. This intensive lip hydrator is formulated with conditioning plant-based oils to indulge lips with much-needed moisture. A bonus is that this lip product also doubles as an overnight lip mask to help hydrate and condition lips all night long. Smoother Soles Ahead To truly hydrate and moisturize the skin, it’s important that we first exfoliate the dead and dry skin off hands and feet to help reduce the appearance of dry skin, age spots and uneven skin tone. So Buff Hand and Foot Polish is the perfect product to do so as it combines the power of Glycolic Acid with eco-friendly Apricot Seed Powder for gentle exfoliation to buff away calluses on feet to promote baby soft soles and hands that appear brighter, smoother, and more renewed. Happy Hydration Once hands and feet are exfoliated and no longer have dead skin cells sitting on the surface, it’s time to go into a super-rich, luxe Extra Whip Hand and Foot Treatment for the ultimate hydration. Formulated with moisture-locking ingredients such as Shea Butter and Cocoa Butter to help reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and age spots for visibly smoother, firmer-looking hands and feet. We recommend throwing this in your bag for on-the-go hydration anytime your hands are feeling a bit dry. Avoid the Hang Nail There is truly nothing worse than having dry cuticles that can ruin the look of a perfect manicure and turn into gnarly hang nails. Help avoid the painful hangnail this Winter with QuickFix Moisturizing Cuticle Balm, a spa-like treatment that helps to instantly moisturize and condition cuticles. Formulated with Coconut Oil and Avocado Oil, QuickFix is a hero cuticle treatment to have this Winter when our hands and nails are begging for some TLC. The no-mess cuticle massager features a non-greasy formula and a massager tip that hugs dry cuticles and conditions them for a true pampering experience.   Indulge with Champagne Fizz Champagne Fizz is our Intensive Nail & Skin Massage Treatment that is perfect for chilly Winter nights when we are bundled up inside. This luxe massage treatment is created from a natural skin-softening blend of Soybean Oil and Coconut Oil that perfectly melts into a soothing and conditioning hand massage treatment. Perfect for Winter, simply light the candle and allow the wax to melt before drizzling the oil onto hands and feet to instantly moisturize the skin.

Royal Nail Lacquer Inspired By The Queen - butter LONDON

Royal Nail Lacquer Inspired By The Queen

by Grace Allen on Oct 21 2022
By now, we have all heard of The Queen’s unfortunate death on September 8, 2022. Queen Elizabeth was the UK’s longest-serving monarch and died at the age of 96 years old. The Queen had a significant impact on those who admired her, as well as her impact on butter LONDON. To honor our fallen Queen, we want to discuss all of our various nail lacquer shades that were inspired by the Queen herself. npr.com All Hail The Queen All Hail The Queen is a holographic beige with just the right amount of shimmer. This Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer is the perfect, skin complementing hue for any occasion when not just any nude will do. The shimmer in All Hail the Queen makes this a perfectly royal nail colour as it is a classic neutral with a little bit of fun shimmer. This Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer got its name out of respect to the Queen, as All Hail the Queen is a phrase to show respect to a monarch as a form of salutation. Champagne Princess Inspired by crowns from the Queen with beautiful champagned coloured stones, Champagne Princess is a pearlescent Champagne hue that embodies the glamorous high stakes of the royal family. It has been shown that Queen Elizabeth enjoyed drinking a glass of Champagne to celebrate life’s special moments. In February of this year, Her Majesty released Buckingham Palace English Sparkling Wine to celebrate her Platinum Jubilee. The sparkling wine featured a label with a design based on the embroidery of her Robe of Estate that she wore during her coronation. Therefore, it was only right to create a Champagne hue in her honour. House of Amethyst House of Amethyst is a royal pearlescent mauve Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer that was inspired by the Queen’s royal amethyst jewels seen in the Queen’s beautiful jewelry and broach that she wore on special occasions. The amethyst stones are some of the oldest jewels in the Queen’s collection and have been passed down through royal generations. The amethyst stone are seen as a stone of peace, clarity, and peacefulness. Because amethyst jewels are showstopping on their own, we made a luxe nail lacquer colour in a similar colour scheme to honour Queen Elizabeth. Her Majesty’s Red Nothing screams royalty like a luxurious true red crème. The colour red represents power and regal majesty, making it the perfect hue to name after Her Majesty. Queen Elizabeth was known for wearing bright colours, and her vibrant red coats, hats and dresses inspired the royal red nail lacquer. Over the Queen’s long reign, we also caught glimpse of her reapplying a royal red lip, making a red-coloured hue a perfect match to honor Queen Elizabeth. Royal Emerald The rich pearlescent colour of Royal Emerald was inspired by the luxurious emeralds seen on the Queen’s iconic emerald crown that she debuted in 2019 with matching never-before-seen emerald earrings and a showstopping emerald drop necklace. This royal emerald debut certainly made headlines as the emeralds could not be missed as they shone throughout the night. Therefore, we decided to create an emerald Patent Shine 10X Nail Lacquer to honour the Queen and her Emerald jewels seen on her crown and jewelry. Empire Red This poppy red crème is perfectly royal and features subtle hints of gold throughout. This poppy red colour is similar to the colour seen on the Queen’s poppy pin that she wore on Remembrance Day each year. Remembrance Day is celebrated November 11th each year and is a day where the Queen, along with other members of the royal family, wore red pins with red poppy flowers to symbolize remembrance and hope each year.
