Butter London Indigo Punk over OPI Eurso Euro

Indigo Punk was released by Butter London as part of the Rock Your Colour collection for fall 2013. Described by Butter London as a full coverage indigo purple glitter, it's actually appears as more of an indigo blue with a violet cast in certain lights. It has a deep violet tinted suspension base carrying superabundant dark blue microglittters, a true glitter bomb.

I read that getting full coverage with Indigo Punk wasn't as easy as expected, and that it could end up looking very thick so I decided to layer Indigo Punk over OPI Eurso Euro. One coat is all that's needed for full opaque coverage of this magnificent deep ultramarine blue creme. Eurso Euro just flat out rocks! It's an absolutely perfect base polish for Indigo Punk, they could have been made for each other.

Application of Indigo Punk was a delight. The consistency is fluid but not thin, and dense with glitters, which spread smoothly and evenly over the nail without stacking or protruding over the free edge. I used two coats for this manicure. Indigo Punk dries naturally in very good time to a flat, very slightly textured satin finish. I wish all glitter bombs were as easy to apply as this one is!

Photos show two coats of Indigo Punk over one coat of Eurso Euro over treatment and basecoat, with a coat of Gelous followed by a topcoat of Seche Vite to finish.

    1. Glad you enjoyed this, Melissa -- I love it too! There's something about a sparkly dark blue polish look that is just so divine, it's like you're wearing the universe on your nails or something. Swoon-worthy, for sure!
