BarryM Nail Series - BarryM Gelly Hi Shine NP Dragon Fruit

Hi Beauties

How is your weekend going so far? I hope you have been able to enjoy the lovely weather today! :)

Today's product is the BarryM Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in shade Dragon Fruit GNP 11.

This is a very pretty pink and the colour makes me think of summer, candy and barbie! As i always say i love me a pretty pink polish and this one doesn't disappoint.
I applied two coats as the first wasn't quite opaque and left it a couple of minutes to dry. I love how shiny the Gelly NP's are, how long lasting they are and the amazing quality for the cheap price.
Once it was dry I decided to add a black tip to make it a bit more funky! It's not neat and perfect (I quickly swiped across the tip with a normal black polish in a rush) but I still love the look and finish!
The Gelly Polishes are fast becoming my favourite NP ever and I'm very happy to hear they have released some more colours ready for Summer.

Superdrug currently have a 3 for 2 off on selected BarryM which, includes all nail polish :)

Have a great weekend.

MUA Nail Constellation Gemini

Hello!

How are you enjoying the weekend? Mine was spent catching up with family and friends and making Snowmen :)

This is a review of the MUA Nail Constellation in Gemini.

I really enjoyed doing this, it is a very easy trend to do yourself in the comfort of your own home. It has instructions on a little card attached to the neck of the bottle. The beads pour through the narrow top and any overspill can be poured back into the bottle by removing the lid and turning it the other way up to use as a funnel. Amazing design!! All you need to do is pour out some beads into a little dish, then apply a nail polish to your nail and quickly dip your finger nail in the beads or pour over your nail straight from the bottle. Then repeat if applying to all your nails. I chose to do an accent nail with Nail polish on my other nails. Make sure you leave them to dry long enough so that the beads stay in place!

You can buy the Nail Constellations from MUA and Superdrug for £3 each. There are 5 colours available.

What are your thoughts on the MUA Nail Constellations?

BarryM Indigo Review

Hello!


How are you enjoying the snow if you have it where you are? I have to say I love the snow but we dont get much in the Midlands(UK).

Today I am reveiwing the BarryM Indigo NP312 :)

I used this product when testing the MUA Fur-Effect Nails yesterday. Its a beautiful colour, in the bottle it looks more of a Purply-Blue but when applied I think it is more towards Navy Blue than Purple. I am a fan of BarryM Nail Paints, as they are really good quality for how much they cost. You get 10ml for £2.95, it applies really well and you only need two coats for a perfect opaque finish. I dont use a Top Coat as I change my nail colour quite alot and it has a very shiny finish so I dont feel the need to use anything to prolong the wear or add shine. The brush is a decent length so you shouldn't have too much waste once you reach the end of a bottle. I usually find BarryM takes about 2 days to start chipping without a Top Coat (when doing a lot around the house, shopping and busy days) and days when I'm not doing much it can last 3-4. This is perfect for me because as I said I change them so much it really doesnt matter. I also love to paint the tip for a colour block effect rather than remove the whole colour. It saves time and can make them new again in less than 5 minutes.

BarryM is available from
www.barrym.com

And
Superdrug and Boots Stores.

Have a great day!
