Pretty polishes from Butter London

Michelle over at All Lacquered Up has blogged about Miley Cyrus' gorgeous teal nails at the recent MTV Movie Awards. Her colour apparently is Artful Dodger, by Butter London. This is a new brand for me, so I had to go and check them out. Their polishes have received good reviews, are Big 3 Free, and there are some truly gorgeous colours in the collection, but at GBP12 each they're not exactly cheap. However it turns out Artful Dodger is part of their Spring Fashionista's Favourites gift pack for GBP38, which works out to GBP7.60 per bottle, still not cheap (especially once I add the postage to New Zealand onto that) but oh so very, very tempting.

Here is the collection, can you see why I am tempted?



Left to right the colours are (with Butter London's descriptions):
Blowing Raspberries: Rich, delicious berry lacquer. Perfect for in-between days when red is too much and pink is too little;
Muggins: Not your mother’s lilac. A opaque shade that’s pale, but packs a punch;
The Old Bill: Burnished copper with a beautiful antique patina. For sophisticated metal heads;
Artful Dodger: This true teal is a show-stopper. High fashion and so unique, it’s the perfect way to wear this trend without over kill;
Cheeky Chops: Why no, I do not have a banana in my pocket, but I am happy to see you.

I am particularly coveting Cheeky Chops (and I'm not normally a huge fan of yellow), and The Old Bill and Artful Dodger and ... well all of them actually.

What do you think, should I buy them? They're available here, and if you've tried them or other Butter London products I'd love to know what you think.
