A few greens for St. Patrick's Day

This was on butter LONDON's Facebook page: "Receive a complimentary full size bottle of British Racing Green lacquer with any purchase of $25.00 or more NOW through March 22nd on butterLONDON.com. Simply enter StPaddyDay11 upon check out. Happy St. Paddy’s day bezzie mates! (US only)" It's a darn good deal... if it works.  I've heard reports that some people aren't able to get the code to go through.  Boo! :(  I say... keep trying!  Email customer service if you have to. :P

British Racing Green is a jewel-toned dark green with great shimmer.  The green is softer than a black in lower light.  The shimmer really pops in the sun.  On the nail versus the bottle, BRG is darker with more subtle shimmer; in the bottle versus the nail, the green is lighter and the shimmer is more pronounced.  (Which is weird, since that's slightly different from what I thought a few months ago.)  The shimmer and pigment are pretty evident in the bottle- you can see a bit of yellow pigment settling at the bottom of the bottle.  My bottle is nicely aged. ;)If you love greens, click here!
