Duchess: Barry M Textured Royalty Review

By
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! :)

Make Sure You Follow!

By
Hey everyone! Apologies for the lack of yesterday's post- unfortunately this one if going to be the last before I go away tomorrow. I'm not 100% sure if there'll be wifi at the place we're staying (we're going to study the animals after all, not to be social over the internet), but just in case there is, you should make sure that you're following me on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook! I'll try to post at least one image or update on each per day, assuming that we have wifi, so to be a part of this adventure, make sure you hit the buttons!

How To: Gradient Nails

By
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!

GoT: House Stark

By
Hey everyone! The Fandoms are continuing to 'Strike Back' today, and House Stark is leading the battle in Game of Thrones! Image credit to HBO I think the Starks are my favourite house in the GoT universe, so it seemed like a good place to start for the second half of the Game of Thrones manis- the Houses!
