NOTD: Party Pink Sparkle

Monday, 31 December 2012



As you may have seen in my previous post which was about the items that I'd received for Christmas you may recognize this nail paint, and as you thought, yes it is Barry M! My family know that this really is the only nail varnish brand that I use all the time and that I'm growing my collection so they do tend to opt for buying this for me. I thought I'd do a quick post/review on this as most of the other NOTD posts seemed to be a pleaser so I hope you all like this one too!

This shade is called  Pink Silver Glitter and is just so pretty and girly, even just the product sitting in the bottle is just so beautiful, this one is definitely an eye-pleaser due to the fresh pink colour mixed with very sheer silver. It's probably the prettiest colour that I have to date. It builds up well as it only needs 2 coats to really get full coverage and, it really does look fantastic when it is on! It can be used for special occasions such as New Year (which is what I'm using it for right now;)) or just to jazz up a simple outfit. It's really not too bright but enough to make a statement. My only complaint is that it does feel slightly rough like sandpaper which results in it being a nightmare to remove, it also chips so easily which is a pain, although I don't let these things put me off and I love it nonetheless!

Barry M Jewel Glitter Nail Paint – Amethyst

Recently over the past few days I've been wearing this gorgeous glitter polish non-stop, it really is that amazing! You may remember that I featured this polish along with two others in a recent post which you can find here. I purchased this a few weeks ago so haven't had much of a chance to really wear it as I've been wearing the other two. As you all know I'm probably Barry M's biggest nail paint fan thus, you probably all knew this polish would be none other than yours truly Barry M, I picked this up in Superdrug whilst out shopping for presents, I couldn't resist as it's such an amazing glitter - it's very similar to Jewel Britannia minus the red flecks of glitter. Nonetheless I adore this polish I can't even begin to tell you how amazing I find it as I have no words, it's made me slightly too happy!

The glitter is small flecks of blue, purple, gold and green which all go very well together. It builds up extremely well so you can cover your whole nail with no gaps whatsoever, it only takes two applications to achieve a matte look and it dries surprisingly fast. It feels very smooth also, not like sandpaper or rough, but, it is slightly bumpy, however you can't notice it and I don't bother about that as it doesn't effect the quality or look of the polish at all so it's a minor thing. I have noticed this chips quicker than other glitter polishes but I think that's just down to building it up rather a lot and everyday wear, sometimes the it all comes off in in the shape of my nail so that tends to get slightly annoying! This polish just looks so amazing and would be perfect for a new years party I have to just sweep the tiny faults under the carpet and gawk at it's beauty.

Overall, I LOVE this, so much. I've received some lovely comments regarding my nails and have really started to adore glitter polishes, I'm buying more glitters than mattes! I never used to like glitter polishes but I have been completely converted, I'm not sure if it's just because I like Barry M or I've just changed. Whatever it is I'm happy as it's opened up a whole new look for my nails.

I really recommend trying out this colour, it looks so much better in person and as soon as it's on your nails I can completely guarantee that you will love it as much as I do! It's only £2.99 so is super cheap and definitely worth it, I think it looks way more expensive than it really is - well done Barry M!

Have a lovely Christmas break everyone!

Barry M Glitter Nail Paint - Rose Quartz

Hey Dolls!
I've never really been a fan of glitter nail polishes as they feel like sandpaper and are just a complete nightmare to remove, hens why I've never invested in one, until now that is! I was wandering around Superdrug on Sunday, originally planning to buy some MUA products when this beautiful colour jumped out at me, and of course, it's Barry M so I just had to have it! I couldn't resist buying this product, I instantly loved it as it was so pretty and interesting, just a dream!

As soon as I got home I removed my previous colour and applied the new polish right away, I was in love at first coat, it was gorgeous. It only took 2 coats to get a very good coverage without any solid colour underneath so I thought that was great as I would prefer just to have the glitter on it's own, so I'm very happy I was able to achieve that.

There are large flecks of pink glitter mixed with very fine bits of pinky-silver colored glitter within a clear polish to hold it all together which sticks to the nail beautifully, you also get a decent amount of glitter on your nail so it looks fuller. It dries really quickly and doesn't feel like grit, it actually feels rather smooth, thus I approve this! I've gotten so many comments on my nails about how nice the colour is and what brand it is, so overall it was a brilliant purchase and I thoroughly recommend trying this out!

Barry M Nail Paint - Mushroom

Hey Dolls.
If you've been following my blog for some time now then you may know I have an undying love for Barry M nail paints, this is the only brand that I really use as I feel its just the best for me, I love it. The range of colours is fantastic and I'm always finding new shades to add to my ever growing collection, and who doesn't love having a rather large collection of nail varnishes? One to match every outfit! I also adore the packaging, it looks so clean, neat and pretty especially how there is a small gap at the bottom and sides so it looks like it's floating, the best thing about this polish is they're only £2.99, which is so affordable for anyone!

The colour that I have on in the photos is called 'Mushroom' and is one of my favorite colours of all time, I can't even begin to think about how many times I've repurchased it, it's just the perfect colour. It's a dark nude kind of colour and just goes with anything. I really recommend this colour as it will suit anyone.

I'm sorry this post was rather short, I've been so ill the past few days and just haven't felt up to even opening the laptop! Hope you're all having a lovely week!
