I then decided to put it over black, most duo- and multi-chromes look best over a dark color. I took inside pics and sun pics. My index finger and middle finger have 3 coats of Knackered over OPI Black Onyx and my ring finger and pinky have 2 coats of Knackered.
Please excuse the chip on my ring finger and the messy index finger. LOL These were not visible to the naked eye and I had already taken this combo off when I was editing the pics.

I thought I was done after that but then my friend Jacki from Adventures in Acetone said she wanted to see it swatched over purple so I decided I might as well add that one in too. LOL I put it over Zoya Savita (I haven't posted on this yet, post coming soon, but in the meantime I added a pic below of Savita so you know what she looks like). It definitely makes it more purple but you can see the color shift in the shade really well. I'm glad I listened to Jacki, this is my favorite combo! (Oh, and I am IN LOVE with Savita, that post coming later).

What do you think of Knackered? I love it BUT I think I can create a dupe out of two polishes I already own. I will have a comparison post up later today. Which two polishes do you think I am talking about? Does it remind you of anything?
Butter London polishes retail for $14 and can be purchased at Ulta, Ulta.com and butterlondon.com
Gorgeousssssssssssssssss!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it over purple as well!! So glad you tried it with Savita! :D
ReplyDeleteOhhh!!! I love that! It looks super pretty over the Black and purple though! Not really by itself!
ReplyDeleteI love it in the bottle but the reviews I saw on it were not that great. I went with slapper instead and now questioning whether I should get this or not
ReplyDeleteOMG OMG OMG
ReplyDeleteI need this polish so bad now!
This is really pretty! Looking forward to the dupe.
ReplyDeleteI have been dying to get my hands on this!!!
ReplyDeletei hate it when a polish looks like a million bucks in the bottle but just doesn't translate onto the nail. i'm taking this one off my wishlist. thanks for the review!
ReplyDeleteHeyyy!!
ReplyDeleteI really dont know if I love it more over black or purple! Omg! Probably over green would look pretty cool too!
