Product Description
You don't have to be daring all the time. Sometimes a deep, dusky pink is just the ticket and very posh indeed.

Container/Packaging
"Dahling" comes in Butter London's classic design; a black rectangle cap on top that secures the cylinder-shaped applicator with a white bird engraved. The applicator is a round brush.

Product
"Dahling" itself is a appears to be lighter than the actual polish. I thought it was a pastel pink shade but it applied to be deep and muted pink (to see the closest representation of the shade, click here).

Scent
The scent is almost undetectable in comparison to regular nail polishes in the market.

Would I Recommend This Product? 
I would totally recommend this product. Three impressive facts:
1. Super Chipping Resistant: I have a habit of tapping my fingernails on the table (and I really don't take care of my nails that much) but it survived nine to mostly fourteen days without incidental and minor chipping (and the chipping is almost invisible too!).
2. Satisfactorily Amazing Colour Pay-off: This nail polish is almost opaque in one coat, and if not, two coats is more than enough (three coats is too thick).
3. Fast Drying: It dries quick.
With these being said, I was definitely impressed by the nail polish and I look forward to trying more.
