Nail Polish Of The Day #2

The other day I read a post on Laura's All Made Up's blog and was really inspired by her Copper and Mushroom by Barry M nail polish look. So I did my own interpretation in pink!

I used my Ciate paint pot in My Fair Lady as my base coat which I use every time I paint my nails. On all my nails apart from my ring fingers I applied 2 costs of Barry M's Strawberry Icrecream. On my ring finger I applied 3 coats of Barry M's Pink Silver Glitter as my accent nail. To finish the look and to keep my nails from chipping I used a coat of Natural Collection's Crystal Clear nail polish.

And here's the final look! I never really bother doing an accent nail on my everyday nail polish but I'm really happy about how this one turned out! These Barry M nail paints are £2.99 each and can be bought from Boots, Superdrug and Barry M's website!

Nail Polish Of The Day

Woo-hoo! My A-level exams are finally over and my summer can begin! I also had my beauty course interview the other day and I have an unconditional place for this September! I'm so excited!

Barry M have brought out a few more glitter nail paints recently and whilst I was at Superdrug a few days ago I was able to pick up this beautiful pink glitter nail polish. It was literally love at first sight.

Pink Silver Glitter 337

This is the shade 'Pink Silver Glitter 337' and in my opinion, is beautiful! I wasn't massively won over by the other colours like the teal and the purple-ish ones. The only other one I may have been interested in was a gold glitter one, but unfortunately that was sold out.

The pink glitter nail paint has light and dark pink glitter and silver glitter in (hence the name!) and I think will be a great summer nail polish!

I use Ciaté paint pot in 'My Fair Lady' which I got free in a Marie Claire issue a while ago as a nude base coat. This is a great nail polish too as on its own makes your nails look shiny and healthy. I then applied 3 coats of the pink glitter nail paint so that my nails were all sparkly. I then used the Revlon Dry Oil top coat for the first time as my clear top coat. This applies well but as of yet, I am not sure how long this will make my nail polish last. Most of Barry M's glitter nail paints are quite long lasting, to the point that they are a pain to remove.

And here's the final result! This is definitely a 'me' kind of nail polish and I would totally recommend it! This nail polish is £2.99 at Boots and Superdrug, but I could not find it on the Barry M website. Right now if you spend over £6 on Barry M in either Boots or Superdrug, you get a free Retro Nail Paint!

What's your favourite nail polish at the moment?
