WOWZASSSS! Where on earth has the past six/seven weeks gone?! They have certainly flown with me having a nail paint to use each week, I'll tell you that much. It only seemed right now that I give you a little (more than likely a lengthy chatty) post on what I thought about them.
left to right : cancun, copa cabana, malibu, miami, rhossili, waikiki.
On Saturday I headed to my friends new house, she enjoys helping me take my outfit photos (very rare that I share outfit posts on here actually! Only done two so far?) so whilst I was there it was only right that I got some blogging shizz done! Ooooh, could you call me prepared? It is a close call right now! Some things & some days are organised, others not so much...that's life though.
Enough of my waffle, let's get down to business!
What I'm impressed by with the matte nail paints...
♥ 100% true to their colour, when you buy any of Barry M's nail paints they are always on point with this. I hate when I buy a nail varnish, put it on my nails & it's nothing like the liquid sat in the bottle. If you hate this happening too, go for Barry M instead...I'm yet for this to happen yet with Barry M. You can honestly take my word for it, I must own around 50 of their nail paints.
♥ They aren't wishy washy, pretty much links in with the top one I guess. The paint for this range was such a bold solid colour, every single one. In the beginning I started getting away with just one coat, but then I decided to go for two towards the end. But one coat would certainly work.
♥ Beautiful colours! Just check out the pictures or them in real life in stores & you'll completely agree I'm sure.
♥ Reasonable price, Barry M pricing is never high in my opinion. Always affordable. Certainly great value for their money too.
♥ A variety of colours, none of the colours in this range are similar. They are all individual & equally beautiful. I've adored every single one (even the green one now, it grew on me).
♥ No staining, none of these colours stained my nails at all. Highly impressed.
♥ Peals off, don't quite think this can really class as a reason for you to maybe want to buy these but it does go with the one above. I'm a sucker for pealing off my nail varnish (yes, I probably shouldn't do it but I do) & these peal off like a dream.
Right, now it's time for the things I wasn't impressed by...
♥ Chipping after a few days, I suppose really this isn't such a bad thing is it? But I thought I'd state it anyway. Even though it does chip I still think it still looks a ok a little chipped anyway. One of my favourite sayings is nothing in life is perfect.
♥ Sometimes it comes out too thick, really this could happen with any nail polish really but I thought I'd just state it. It's pretty much a case of trying a few times not to get too much on the brush.
But I mean come on, I've only managed to find two reasons I wasn't impressed & seven reasons I was.

Ok, I'm going to bring this 'little' post to an end...told you, it wouldn't be little! After reading the two things I wasn't impressed by why not have a little giggle at my photo I took with me rocking each nail paint in this collection.
I'm completely normal you know ;)
Finger nails on the left of the photo are rocking waikiki, rhossili & miami.
Finger nails on the right of the photo are rocking cancun, copa cabana & malibu.

I'm starting to bore myself a little now, so as always thanks for reading!

ReplyDeleteI'm not really a fan of a matte finish but I really like the colours, your nails look fab painted all multi coloured! I'm glad I'm not the only one that loves peeling off nail polish!
