Butter released a Patent Shine base and top coat system a few months back and now they've come out with a new line of polishes to go with it! It seems like every brand is coming out with some type of gel alternative these days. I haven't tried BL's system, so I can't speak to how well it works, but their Patent Shine polishes use something called "shock resisting polymer technology" that is supposed to create a high-shine, long-wearing mani.

I saw these in person the other day and I was really tempted by Fancy, but I held out for now. I bought OPI's Infinite Shine system and one of their IS polishes a little while ago and I still haven't tried it, so I want to give that test run before trying any other long-wear polishes.
The Patent Shine polishes retail for $18 a pop and just launched on Butter London's website.
