Swatches and Review: Butter London - Bit Faker, Bobby Dazzler, Poole, and Champers + Giveaway!!!

Hello Sugars!
Hope y'all are doing very well today. 
I have swatches of four polishes from Butter London's Summer 2013 collection for you guys today. 
This collection is composed of colors that aren't your typical "summer colors", but on a closer look, I absolutely understand what BL was going for. Sands, beach, tanning e.t.c. 

Here's a collage of all four polishes I have for y'all.. 


Please Click Read More  below to view individual swatches and review. PLUS, there's a giveaway at the bottom of this. :-D
First up is Champers..
This is Champagne with shimmer in it. It was opaque in two coats and I love the nude look against my skin tone.



Next is Bit Faker
This was an instant favorite of mine. It is so pretty and shines/sparkles in real life. 
 I thought it'd be a layering polish from first look, but I was pleasantly surprised to find that it got opaque in 3 coats. So beautiful.


Next is Bobbly Dazzler
The first question I asked myself was What is this polish doing in this collection? 
I honestly GET the rest, but this one just throws me off with regards to a summer collection. 
 Aside from the fact that the color looks like stainless steel, application was also a pain.
What you see here is three thin and very careful coats. And even with being careful, there are still brush strokes visible.


And last but certainly not the least is Poole.
a.k.a, the only polish that screams summer colors as we know it.
This soft blue polish is very pretty to me and since I love my blues, I'm a  happy gal. :-)


And that's it for the swatches y'all. 

Next up, I have a giveaway
Butter London's PR mistakenly sent me two of Poole and Champers, so I'll be giving them away to one lucky winner. 


If You'd like to own Poole and Champers, Fill in the rafflecopter widget below
OPEN INTERNATIONALLY AND U.S since I'll be shipping the products. 
Winner has 48 hours after I send him/her an email to respond, or another winner will be picked.

a Rafflecopter giveaway

And that's it for now.
Till Later, God Bless.
