Hello lovelies,

Dandelions are back! We've had some dandelions in our garden so I used them in today's pictures. I've used dandelion as a prop before in this review and the pictures are always so pretty!

Today I will show you two new Barry M limited edition polishes that are being introduced exclusively for Boots today!

Carousel - coral red with subtle gold shimmer. Pretty summery colour that I found quite flattering to my skin tone. The formula was truly excellent - it applied easily and two thin coats provided perfect coverage. Carousel dried fast and glossy but I still applied topcoat.

Bikini - periwinkle blue creme with lavender undertones. This was impossible shade o capture as my camera showed it very blue. I've edited the colour a bit but it still looks very blue. The true colour is leaning towards lavender a bit more. The formula was slightly runny but still manageable and 2 thicker coats provided good coverage. I've applied topcoat.

These are lovely additions to my Barry M collection as I don't have many similar shades.

As I've mentioned previously, these two limited edition shades are launching in Boots today (11th June 2014) so you should be able to find them on your next trip :) The full retail price is £3.99 but you might often find discounts of 3 for 2 offers.

Have a lovely day! Lucie x

My verdict? The black paint is really well pigmented, actually so far the best pigmented black paint I own. The white is good as well but I still needed to go over the petals three times to have them fully opaque. I will be testing the white further in some different nail art techniques so this is not my final view ;)

I have used Barry M Miami as a base colour and then I've used NSI Secrets Prism Paints in Deep Secrets (black) and Little White Lies (white). Then I've used small dotting tool and rhinestones to finish the rest of the nails.

Would you like to see a video tutorial for this kind of one stroke flowers? Let me know!

Have a lovely day. Lucie x
