Duchess: Barry M Textured Royalty Review

Barry M Royal Textured Glitter Collection Posts




I'm gonna be doing (more or less) a post a day with a full-hand swatch of each of these colours :) After these are all done, I'll move onto the Mattes and probably combine a few of the polishes together in my own little mixy-matchy style ;) Enjoy!

Nude Duchess
So, this polish I wasn't really planning on being a fan of. Well, guess what? I am.
The formula is 100% awesome.
The removal is 100% easier than you'd expect from a glittery polish.
The colour is just 500% gorgeous. And this is coming from a girl who absolutely despises nude colours.
In words, the colour is a beautiful beige-nude with pink undertones that kind of reminds me of sand when you're walking up to the beach (minus the slightly fleshy-pink...). It's definitely sparkly, and the glitter reflects so gorgeously- it's like a work of art in a bottle.
Just look at it!

If you want a more opaque look on your nails, one coat is good enough.

Want the full monty? Two coats will definitely cover it.

^All Daytime^

As you can see, some lightings make the polish look slightly more pinky or slightly more brown, and some reflect the glitter as gold and others as silver. It's the perfect 'natural' shade for Autumn though, as you can see the golden shimmer and pink tones during the day when the sun is out (if we get any sun, this is England after all...) and then during the night you'll be able to see the silver tones under false lighting and a slightly more golden-beige colour. Perfection in a bottle my dears!

On my ring fingernail I've use Barry M's Superdrug Limited Edition 'F'. It's pretty much one of their confetti polishes but using metallic bronze and gold strips instead of pastel-coloured strips. It's so pretty, and I admit, this is definitely not the polish you want to use it on top of if you want it to be seen. But I was just so excited to use it!
It comes off nicely too-not too much scrubbing-messiness! 

So pretty!

I hope you enjoyed this post! Keep an eye out for tomorrow, when 'Lady' will be covered! :D 
Thanks for reading, see you later! :)

Fridail: OPI Beach Sandies!

Happy Wednesday  Friday everybody! Where did the time go!? Anyway, we'll dive straight in with the post! I apologise in advance for the iPhone-quality of images, I'm still looking for some batteries that my camera won't complain about. Today I'm covering OPI's Beach Sandies from the Brazil collection, which is a little quartet of mini liquid sand polishes. Can I just say here, if anyone high up in the chain of OPI reads this (which is unlikely, but if you do then HI!), please please pleeeeease make these in full-sized bottles? Please! So... This is the box, and the four that you get (I swatched super quickly over each, so do excuse that)

Hello! Today's prompt for Life in Lacquer's July Nail Art Challenge is Floral! My initial reaction to this was "urgh.

(I really am crazy-impressed by a lot of these mind, they're so detailed and delicate and pretty)
