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! :)

How To: Gradient Nails

Gradient nails are a great way to ensure that your mani matches your outfit over a set period of days (depending on how many colours you use), and it also just looks pretty dang awesome. You've seen a few of my own mani's where gradients have been used (these ones below, in example), especially those in more recent posts! So a tutorial is definitely long overdue- I hope you find it useful!

New Polish and Organisation!

GUESS WHAT GUYS!? My Nails Inc Lucky Dip came, and wow is it just perfect! So what happens with their 'Lucky Dip' is that you get 7 polishes at random for £18, and they only do it like once a season or something. When you think that Nails Inc polishes can range from £11-15, this is a damn good deal! Plus the polishes include new and old ones- it's pretty much whatever they have in their warehouse as far as I understand =)

GoT: The Iron Throne

The Fandoms Strike Back- Game of Thrones Hey everyone! Welcome to week number two of 'The Fandoms Strike Back'! Today sees Game of Thrones mani number two, and of course it just had to be... The Iron Throne The story just wouldn't be the same without it, would it? It'd be "Game of ...." So I decided to attempt to recreate the throne on my nails, and here is how it turned out:
