Current Barry M favourites






i received a lot of Barry M nail varnishes for christmas which i was very pleased about as nail varnishes are always a winner with me. i managed to decide on 3 favourites and thought i'd make a blog post about them.

1. Barry M Matte- Espresso 347: I've been loving this nail polish a lot at the moment. It's a black colour from the new range of matte nail varnishes that barry m have recently brought out. I was looking for a matte nail varnish for ages so i was so pleased when my best friend Candice bought me one for christmas. I was slightly skeptical the first time that i tried it and i thought that it might leave a horrible chalk board sort of texture on my nails. Thank god it didn't, the feel that it has is actually smooth and rather pleasant. I would definitely recommend this if you are on the hunt for a good matte nail varnish as i love it and is a really good price usually selling at £3.99






2. Superdrug Limited Edition-E348: I decided to include this glitter polish as i am partial to a bit of glitter every now and again. Unfortunately it was a limited edition for christmas at Superdrug but i'm sure there will be some good dupes out there. Barry M pink silver glitter or Models own Northern Lights-Wonderland should give a pretty similar look. I love the pretty pink sparkle it gives and the sheer pink undertone that it has. It is the perfect combination of glitter and subtlety, my mum even loved it and borrowed some to wear for the festive season and she's not usually the nail varnish type. I think this nail varnish looks great on its own but for an extra bit of snazz it looks fantastic over a contrasting colour. Im not sure how much this was as it was a christmas gift from my boyfriend, but you can pick up normal Barry M glitter polishes for a right bargin at just £2.99 





3. Blue Moon-317/333: I chose this nail varnish to be in my favourites as i absolutely love this colour i like it so much that my bedside cabinets are the same shade of blue. This pale pastel blue is so pretty and girly it really is the perfect colour, its not to pale and not too bright. The photo that i took doesn't really give it justice but believe me its really nice. When i first looked at it in the bottle i thought it had a darker blue sheen but when i put it on i realised that it doesn't but i don't mind that, i like it how it is. This was also a gift from my boyfriend but after some research iv'e found that it costs around only £2.99.  i think this will be my staple nail colour this year!
