Currently typing this blog post from my friend's iPad mini, and I must say I'm smitten with it!
Anyway onto my review of these two polishes...
The other week I made my way into Southampton High Street to pick up a few things from the local Superdrug store (hair dye, dry shampoo, deodorant for the fella..) when I decided to treat myself to some new nail polishes. I headed straight to the Barry M display as I absolutely LOVE their nail polishes. I picked up this lovely aquamarine/turquoise gel nail polish along with the white glitter polish. When I was paying at the counter the lady informed me that because I had spent over £6 (I think) that I was entitled to a free limited edition colour. It was a choice between the lime green and a bright pink, I decided to be different and try the lime green because after all it was free haha.
Heading to Glastonbury tomorrow I thought that wearing the lime green polish would be the ideal colour for this festival. That night I was bored so painted the nails and I have to say the colour is still holding up beautifully with only a few chips on my left thumb. The lime green colour is that beautiful Granny Smith apple colour which gives the nails a nice little colour pop.
For the ring finger I chose to test out the new glitter nail effect polish, but felt beforehand that it could need a base so I added one layer of the lime polish and then added the white glitter polish on top. This resulted in a really nice pastel-like rainbow glitter effect.
The only downside to the Granny Smith Lime Green polish is that it does leave a faint stain on the nails which isn't great, and the white sparkle polish does chip and come away easily not to mention you need a few coats before you get that white glitter effect.
All in all if your in need of a new polish or even want to try something new I recommend the new limited edition colours and nail effects. Perfect and refreshing for summer.
Barry M polishes roughly go for between £2.99-3.99
