Most nail polishes offer shine or longevity, then force you to choose between gloss and nail health. Butter London Patent Shine 10X Nail Polish delivers a gel-like, high-shine finish with impressive staying power, while also caring for the look of your nails with each application.

The formula is powered by Patent Shine 10X technology, a blend of shock-resistant polymers and glossy resins that lock onto the nail for longer wear. Bamboo extract lends support to the appearance of strength, while diamond powder boosts radiance and smoothness. UV absorbers help defend against colour change and surface dullness.

The polish glides on as a smooth, fluid lacquer that self-levels to minimise streaks and brush marks. Once dry, it sets to a cushiony, gel-effect shine that resists chipping for up to 10 days with proper prep. Shine remains glossy and refined, without turning thick or uneven as you wear it.

For best results, apply to clean, dry nails that have been properly prepped and lightly buffed. Use thin coats, allowing each layer to dry fully before adding the next to extend wear and enhance shine. Finish with a compatible top coat if you want to further boost durability.

• Step 1. Begin with clean, dry nails; remove old polish and wipe nails with nail polish remover to eliminate oils.
• Step 2. Shape nails and gently push back cuticles, then lightly buff the nail surface to create a smooth canvas.
• Step 3. Apply a thin layer of base coat and allow it to dry completely to maximise adhesion and reduce staining.
• Step 4. Apply a thin first coat of Butter London Patent Shine 10X Nail Polish using three strokes: one down the centre, then one on each side.
• Step 5. Allow the first coat to dry, then apply a second thin coat for full, even coverage and enhanced shine.
• Step 6. Once dry to the touch, seal with a compatible top coat if desired, and allow nails to dry thoroughly before using your hands.

Pro Tips

• Roll the bottle gently between your palms instead of shaking to minimise bubbles and ensure a smoother finish.
• Keep coats thin; multiple light layers last longer and dry more evenly than one thick coat.
• Cap the free edge of the nail with each coat by lightly running the brush along the tip to help prevent chips.
• Avoid hot water and heavy manual tasks for at least an hour after application to protect the fresh manicure.
