Countess: Barry M Textured Royalty Review

Barry M Royal Textured Glitter Collection Posts


Purple Countess
If I had to pick a favourite from this collection, I think this would definitely be it (there's a surprise, right?), with Duchess following in a close second! The dark colour is just perfectly dark and mysterious, which I love in my polishes- but it holds enough sparkle to show a mischievous, feminine side too. The glitter within the polish are small and shimmery gold and purple pieces and bring the polish the autumnal feel that goes with the rest of the collection.
It's absolute perfection- many 100%'s to you my friend!

On this swatch...
On this polish's swatch, I've played around with colours and designs a bit! My thumb and pinkie nails are just full-on Countess swatch, with my index and ring fingers a gradient of Duchess and Countess- such a pretty combination! And my middle fingers are a pale blue base (Bourjois Paris 1 second gel polish in 'Water') with a fan-brush sweep of Barry M 'Denim' and Nails Inc's 'The Mall' :)
Enjoy the pics!



^^It's a pretty decent one-coater! Ta-da!

And making pretty designs: 








Ta-daaa! :D Hope you like them, if you have any questions drop them in the comments below!

And in a quick typical-fashion, have a summary of all the polishes.
  • Colours= Absolutely amazing, but more variety please!? I'd like a blue, and a red, and a silver, and a green, and a yeah... you get the point!
  • Coverage/Forumla= Once again, absolutely amazing! At least 2 of them are definite one-coaters so they're perfect for when you're in a rush. Plus they dry pretty quickly too!
  • SPARKLE! Sparkle has it's own separate category to colour because they're just amazingly sparkly- all of them!
  • Removal= Pretty dang good to me considering how sparkly they are! Definitely easier to remove than your average glitter polish anyway
So that's all for now, I shall see you all again soon though I have no idea what the post's gonna be, (Hey you've had 5 in a row- no complaining!)
I may start on some Halloween designs-we'll see!
Bye for now's!

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)

LiL Challenge: Floral

Hello! Today's prompt for Life in Lacquer's July Nail Art Challenge is Floral! My initial reaction to this was "urgh. Great, I hate flowers." but then I found some really pretty designs around the internet and my spirits were lifted a little! (I really am crazy-impressed by a lot of these mind, they're so detailed and delicate and pretty)
