Barry M Silk Nail Varnish

Like most girls I can never have to many nail Varnishes. I am always drawn to the latest nail colours and styles. Your nails are a great way to finish of an outfit,they are more like a fashion accessory. 

Barry M Nail Varnishes have always stood out to me as being the most unique and daring with their colours and styles. So I always check the latest nail varnishes they have on sale. 

I recently came across the new silk collection and within a second I had the lovely blue Mist and pink Blossom in my hands. I love the silk collection and if I could stretch my money far enough I would have easily bought every colour. But for now I picked my two favoutrite colours and the rest will have to wait until next payday!  

So above we have the gorgeous girly Pink shade called Blossom. The nail varnish has a quick drying quality which is great as 2-3 coats brings out the best in the varnish. Blossom has a beautiful matte finish with a sweet shimmer. The colour gives of a very subtle metallic feel. I love metallic and pastels so this really is a combination of my two favourites. This is a beautiful colour for spring/summer and with pastel colours being so in fashion at the moment will compliment any pastel outfit.  

Below we have the beautiful blue shade called Mist. Again the varinish had a quick drying quality and looks better wit 2-3 coats. I feel Mist has a stronger matte finish but still has the subtle shimmer. Again this shade is great for spring/summer and will look perfect with any other pastel shade. I also reckon this shade would really compliment a lovely summer tan but unfortunately I am white as a ghost at the moment so I will have to just imagine.

Below I have added a photo of how the colours look on. I couldn't decide which colour I wanted to wear first so decided to wear both for a cute girly look. They look great together and really compliment each other. I really do love that with pastel colours you can mix as many as you want and they will not clash.

I can not wait until I have the whole collection and look forward to mix and matching all the colours together. The finish really does give a silky texture and has to be one of my new favoutite styles. I will definitely be wearing the Silky collection throughout summer/14.

Barry M Touch Of Magic Lip Paint

The first time I ever saw this lipstick was years ago when I was at school ! I thought it was the most amazing thing in the world. Now years later I have finally purchased my own. And its still as amazing as it was all them years ago !

I do have to thank Kammi from beautybookblog.com/ for convincing my to buy this :) 

So you must be wondering why the hell it is green! As you apply the green lipstick it magically turns pink from the alkali on your lips. This does mean everyone shade will be different  depending on your alkaline levels. You could end up with a very pale pink colour or a vibrant cerise pink. 

I love the fact that everyone who uses this lipstick will have their own unique shade! 

So you can buy this Lipstick at most boots and superdrug stores. I cant seem to find this shade online so your best bet would be to look in a local shop. The lipstick's price is £4.49 which I think is great. 

As you an see below the lipstick is in shade TMLP. This stands for Touch Of Magic Lip Paint. 

I actually love that name I think it makes the lipstick sound very cute and girly.   

   

 So if you don't believe me and think i'm trying to fool you into buying a green lipstick, here is a picture of me applying the product.

I just love the shade that the lipstick creates for me. The lipstick feels very smooth and nourishing to your lips. I am quite surprised as I thought the colour changing effect could be very drying but this is not the case at all. Another great thing about this lipstick is how long it lasts on your lips ! I put this on around 6pm and didn't take any of before bed (whoops) When I woke you could still see the product! It had faded a little but was still noticeable. So this lipstick is great for when you only want to apply once or twice a day as it almost stains the lips a lovely pinky tone. If you are worried about the product staining just apply a little lip balm before applying the product and the barrier should stop the staining.    

So here is the complted look. I have applied 2-3 coats to make the shade a little more vibrant. The lipstick texture gives a lovely added shine. But as you can see the product does soak into the skin and stains the lips.  Personally I have no problem with this as I feel it makes the product last longer.

Would you like to try a colour changing lipstick ? Whats your favourite BarryM shade ?
