Butter London: Marrow

Marrow is a dusty purple shimmer. The shimmer is on the subtle end of the spectrum but does show up in most lighting conditions.





I used two coats to get bottle color. The brush on these is fine; I found the handle a bit stumpy but soon got used to it. Like some of the other premium brands, the part of the cap that shows is really a cover and pulls off to reveal the part you actually hold when you use the polish. Unlike some other brands, the Butter London caps have a label that tells you that.



Being a purple person, there was no way I was leaving Marrow behind, and it did not disappoint on the nail.

    I had no idea these caps came off on purpose lol. I thought it was just a weird thing that happened with square bottle caps. :)

    I agree with Jaljen, the prices aren't very suitable for my...price range xD
    But it is a lovely color~

    This is really pretty. I'm into anything with shimmer or sparkle, but like others have already said, this brand is way beyond my budget.

    I've seen this shade before and it does not disappoint seeing swatches of it again.

    That's what I thought: colours are beautiful, but that cap doesn't look very handy ;P But they've found great solution!
