red - Lucy's Stash

Hello lovelies,

Sorry for taking blogging break during the weekend, I needed to catch up on swatching and relax a bit. The good news is I got a lot done, the bad news is I didn't manage to write any new posts so I'm now behind in writing...the struggles of a nail blogger :D

Today I want to share a swatch of Barry M Gelly in Pomegranate which is gorgeous raspberry red colour with glossy finish. I don't think I have reviewed Barry M Gelly before but I do like them very much and I plan to buy some more.

Barry M Gelly Pomegranate - Review & Swatches

Believe it or not, this is just one coat of Pomegranate and topcoat. It chipped after a day and a half so next time I think I'll apply two coats but my point was - it is well pigmented and one coat was nicely opaque :) The formula was easy to work with and it dried very glossy. I know that it is not necessary because we're all using topcoat anyway but it is nice to see glossy finish. The pictures with flowers were taken outside with my phone, the rest is in the lightbox. The lightbox pictures are more colour-accurate.

Barry M polishes are available at Superdrug, Boots and barrym.com. I'm listing drugstores first because very often they have offers like 3 for 2 ;) As for international sales, I'm not sure Barry M is available outside UK but feel free to correct me.

Have a nice day everyone! Lucie x

Hello lovelies,

It's time for a nail art post, right? But first I wanted to remind you all about an exclusive giveaway I'm running with Illamasqua. You can win the whole Glamore collection! Find out how to enter here.

I've been playing with the OPI Brazil collection a bit more and I've created this floral skittlette manicure inspired by Czech folk flower pictures on crisps! :D Here you can see that anything can go on nails ;)
