butter LONDON Royal Navy - Looking for the PERFECT Navy Creme?

I'm a relatively new blue polish lover. There are shades of blue that just don't work for me so rather than try to sort them out, I've pretty much avoided blues for 30+ years...until recently. (Well maybe not 30+ years because I really don't remember blue nail polish in the 70s or even the 80s.) Sad, I know. And even though I've started to embrace blues, I was having the hardest time finding a really great navy blue creme to love. I found a few good blues but they all had some sort of shimmer or they were jelly or the formula was a pain.

BUT NO MORE!!!!!!  I've found it!  I'm not sure how long it's been around but I accidentally stumbled on it the other day at Ulta and it's fabulous!  butter LONDON Royal Navy! I *think* it came out in 2010, but don't hold me to that. There was no spot for it in the regular butter LONDON display and it was shoved in the back behind the rest. One lone bottle. Finally an impulse buy that worked out!!!

butter LONDON's Royal Navy has a fantastic formula that applied smoothly and easily. Two coats for full opacity and even though it's a creme and applied like a creme, it does have sort of a jelly look to the finish. Just lovely.

Can you even STAND it?


What do you think? Do you wear blue polish? Is this one you'd wear?


butter LONDON polishes are available at butterlondon.com and selected retail stores like ULTA (and most recently, Dillard's Department Stores) and they retail for $14.00 for .4 ounces. To stay up-to-date on special deals and offers, you can "like" them on Facebook here. Royal Navy is just one of the over 60 colors they offer, in addition to various indulgences for your hands and feet...and even your lips. The nail lacquers are 3-free and butter LONDON is a Cruelty-Free company. That's a major plus for me.
