MANICyours: Butter London, Ciate, Nails Inc in Sephora Malaysia

Attention MANICyours fans in Malaysia, there’s a British invasion: Butter London, Ciate, and Nails Inc will be in our shores this March!

Thanks to Sephora Malaysia, these three relatively new brands that have taken the manicure world by storm are now available for our eager little hands (as if we needed more things to throw our money at) and we are super excited to experiment with all those new colours, cute packaging, and interesting formulas!

In case you’ve not heard of these brands, here’s our quick little 3-minute intro and swatches for your quick consumption:

1. Butter London

Butter London in Rosie Lee

What: Very much a fashion brand, Butter London is inspired by Rock & Roll and Great Britain. It’s all about colours, unbridled creativity, self-expression and having that right shade of colour while turning heads.It’s also the first carcinogen-free nail lacquer in the US.

Butter London is a backstage fixture at Fashion Week and is known for transforming catwalk trends to custom nail palettes – they’ve even developed the Lippy Liquid Lipstick to go with the matchy-matchy lip/nail trend of 2012!

Who: The Butter London girl is a suitcase full of contradictions – pairing leather and lace, sporting tattered jeans but carrying today’s “it” bag. She’s a bit naughty and cheeky, independent, in-the-know and savvy. She believes in colour and couture, and is not afraid to take a fashion risk!

What to look out for: The Sweetie Shop Bespoke Collection and the Starkers Collection

2. Ciaté

Ciate Paint Pot in Oil Slick

What: Ciaté stands for Colour, Innovation, Aspiration, Trend and Extraordinary and this certainly rings true – we’re sure you’ve heard of the infamous Caviar Manicure that really cemented Ciaté’s brand as a force to be reckoned with in this highly competitive industry!

Their lacquers are always glamourous, and Ciaté have been nicknamed the “nail innovators of our time” with their unique 3D-type effects such as the Velvet and Sequin Manicure kits. Surely, you can’t go wrong with a brand that has an impressive celebrity following such as Adele, Rita Ora, Rihanna and Kate Moss!

Ciate Paint Pot in Oil Slick

Who: Ciaté is perfect for the girl who loves feeling sophisticated and glamorous; the brand was created around the understanding of a woman’s love for affordable luxury and the idea of nails being the perfect canvas for self-expression and individuality.

3. Nails Inc.

Nails Inc Concrete Effect in Stonehenge

What: Nails Inc is another fashion forward nail brand that continuously amazes us with the amount of innovative formulas and textures from Magnetic polish, to Feather, Concrete, and even Leather Effect polishes!

Nails Inc regularly work with fashion designers and are known to come up with new launches (not fixed per year) based on what they’re inspired backstage – which keeps fans of the brand always excited for new and unique nail polishes.

Instead of the same old, uniformed packaging, we like how Nails Inc always incorporates fun elements to their basic bottles ie. the jewel encrusted Crystal Colour nail polishes, or the fact that you get to preview the nail polish texture based on the cap of the bottle!

Who: Edgy, funky, confident girls with strong personal style who like to go a little crazy with their nails and aren’t afraid to experiment with mix & match nails!
