Barry M Nail Effects

Follow my blog with Bloglovin
Another Post about a Barry M product, I am beginning to think that's all I own...
but it shouldn't be so darn good!!
I went out to superdrug, my new favourite place due to having 10% discount there!
I bought this




£3.99 = bargain!!
I couldnt wait to try it out, but the boyfriend was in a rush to go out for a meal, so I didn't have time to paint my nails the day I bought it..

Eventually I have got round to doing it, even though I have to take it off for my first day with the paramedics tommorrow! eek!

I applied a base coat, then put Barry M 273 Raspberry on as a foundation colour



This colour worked perfectly with the neutral colours in my outfit, and my red lips!

I then applied my Barry M Nail Effects number 316 over the top.





I found that a thinner coat produced different effects to a thicker coat. It says not to overlap so I ended up doing a really thin coat to begin with, but I quite like the effect, you can see it on the middle finger mostly. Problem with not being able to overlap is when you miss a bit, I found that I was dabbing away tryin to cover little bits, but I'm sure that'l get better with practice! The effect looks great though, loving it, I am looking forward to tryin it out with some pastel colours as the base!
I am off to my best friends tonight for some tea with the girls as the boy is away on a school trip (he works in a school) wonder what their verdict will be!

Crayon Fun!

I LOVE Barry M lip paint, nail paint, and pretty much any other product made by this company.
So when I heard about their Lip Lacquer I thought I just had to try it!
I opted for the brightest most pigmented red they had, as I love wearing red lipsticks, but a few months ago I dyed my natural blonde hair red which left me feeling unable to wear my statement red lips... anyway, I am now back blonde, so I felt like a little celebratory purchase, this is what I got...

Its the Barry M Lip Lacquer, Lip Crayon in No.1

Swatch With Flash (Top) Without Flash (Bottom)





Results!!

After... (bottom) without flash (left) with flash (right)
















I wore it out to the pub last night, and I can safely say it lasted me a few drinks until I had to reapply, and I only had to reapply a thin layer...
It has a very thick consistency, but is easy to apply.
It feels very heavy compared to normal lipsticks but it wears really well..
Overall very impressed with this product, will be buying multiple colours
It costs £3.99 in superdrug, if you are a student you get 10% off and superdrug have alos just launched their new beauty card, so get yourself there!

What are your favourite Lippie's?
