Trout Pout Butter London Nail Lacquer

Butter London says their Trout Pout Nail Lacquer Pale and retro, this opaque cantaloupe nail lacquer looks great on anyone.

Trout Pout was from the spring summer 2012 collection and is the colour of the meat of a trout a coral. It is not my fav butter by far it chips easily, is streaky, is really hard to apply quite runny and only lasts a day. Butter says it pale I really do not think it is to me it was really quite bright coral colour (see pic below).  Redeeming feature it is very summery. 

This is what the polish looks like in real life. Butter base coat two coats of trout pout and butter hard wear top coat.

As butter Loves to use British slang as names for their polishes I have decided to translate what they mean as I happen to be a Brit and know what they stand for as I have noticed a lot of people who are not British seem to be getting the wrong end of the stick when it comes to meanings.

So Trout Pout is slang for when a person over does the collagen injection into their lips and they look abnormally big and they come out looking like a trout.

Cream Tea Butter London Nail Lacquer

Butter London says that their cream tea nail polish is a Barely there and ever-so-sweet. Pale and creamy, this lacquer is an alternative to your standard clear or sheer pink nail lacquer.

At the moment according to vogue there is a trend for white nails this summer it is suggested that instead of opting for a bright white colour as you could end up looking like a WAG, you should opt for a creamier more transparent colour that will look more mature such as Butters Cream tea as you can see it is not bright white but a nice creamy colour as the name suggests. 

To me the colour really reflex's the name it is very similar to the colour of the clotted cream that I have on top of my scone during tea on a summer day when I visit my grandmother.  

This is what the polish looks like in real life. Butter base coat two coats of cream tea and butter hard wear top coat.
