Hi everyone! Sorry for the week long absence. I didn't have anything pressing to post last week and the break was needed. I have a new to me brand for you today, these five polishes come from Londontown and their Lakur Enchanced Colour Line. I had the chance to see this brand on display when I was at Cosmoprof Las Vegas last July and was quite intrigued by them. I love creme finishes so I was happy to be contacted to do a review.
Let's talk formula. These are really very nice cremes. They self level well and have good color saturation, I needed just two coats for coverage for each one, including the off white and lighter lilac. I didn't apply topcoat for my photos below (though I usually do) because I wanted to share their awesome shiny finishes.
Londontown states that their Lakur line is "9 Free" and vegan and they originated in Britain, hence the brand and polish names. The polishes are on the higher price polish level, they retail for $16, which is likely why I haven't made a purchase before now but after experiencing the quality, I can see myself buying more down the line. As for where you can buy your own Londontown Lakur, they are a boutique brand, so you will want to find the nearest store to you by using the store locator on their website and you can purchase directly from their online shop.

ReplyDeletePretty swatches! Love the Ring me one. Vibrant color and great finish. A must try!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jules! That one was definitely my favorite of the set.
DeleteI was also really impressed with their polishes - they live up to the price point! As great as the polishes were, the highlight for me was their top coat which was pretty much the bee's knees in every way, lol.
ReplyDeleteI wish they had sent their topcoat but alas, no. That just means I gotta make a purchase soon!
DeleteRing me is a very lovely color. I think its something worth trying out.
ReplyDeleteI agree, very much worth trying out.
