Stepping into Spring ft. Barry M Nail Paints

Colours are everywhere at the moment, brights, pastels, you name it. It seems when it comes to Spring then colours the key! So with that in mind I have put together a collection of my favourite Barry M nail polishes which will be perfect for Spring!

1. Peach Melba 318

2. Coral 296

3. Bright Pink 279

4. Fuchsia 302

5. Mint Green 304 

Coral is my personal fave, it adds a splash of colour to any outfit especially as my wardrobe is a haze of neutral colours. 

In case you weren't aware I love Barry M Nail Polishes based on the fact they are affordable at £2.99 a pop and glide on effortlessly. After only a couple of coats you can achieve a full opaque look. 

These are available at selected Boots and Superdrug, or visit the Barry M website and see the full collection by clicking here.

What are your favourite colours for spring?

In the RED NOTD

I love a red nail, so much so that I own a plethora of red nail polishes in every shade possible. I love the sexiness and shine of a perfect red manicure so throw some glitter into the mix and you have my perfect combo. So thats exactly what I did with my Glossy Box Deborah Lippman glitter nail polish and Barry M Red Wine, and these were the results! 

Base - Barry M Red Wine 

Top Coat - Deborah Lippmann (shade unidentified)

Barry M nail polishes will always be a staple in my life as they are cheap and reliable and I begrudge spending a fortune on nail varnishes. The Deborah Lippmann of course is pricier, and this is evident in the quality, however I probably would not purchase again purely based on the cost element alone. 

Having had surgery on my face, makeup has not been top priority this week unfortunately although as it is the other halts birthday tomorrow I thought I would treat myself to this little mani! 

What are your thoughts?

Barry M Nail Polish in Mushroom

Firstly I love Barry M Nail Polishes. I love the fact that they are an affordable budget polish, currently retailing at approximately £2.99 (Boots/Superdrug do 2 for £5) yet they never scrimp on the quality. 

I own most of the collection that is available in store, although they do have a more extensive range via their website which you can view here. 

Mushroom is one of my favourite shades available, its a light brown with a greyish tint about it. I love the fact it is subtle so perfect for everyday wear yet has such a high gloss to it. 

I am wearing 2 coats, purely to help it last longer although with only 1 coat you get a beautiful opaque colour without the need for a topcoat, although I would put a top coat on purely to extend the longevity of it.
