Review of Barry M Nail Paint

A few months ago, I purchased Barry M Nail Paint in the colour '295 Turquoise'. I wasn't expecting much as it was around £3.00 and most good nail polishes would at least be double that. 

The first thing I noticed was the colour choices. There were some lovely colours that I had not saw before with other cheap nail polish brands. I spent at least 5 minutes trying to pick a colour I like and I decided on this one.

I have relatively short nails so I use it on top of false nails, sometimes acrylics. It takes a long time to dry and if you don't wait at least 10-15 minutes to wait for one coat to dry before applying another, you have no hope of it ever drying as I found out the hard way. As long as you're careful and apply the layers thinly, it comes out okay. However I would still recommend using a top coat on it. 

This was the finished product of me trying it for the first time.


Yes, I know what you're thinking. That's not very good. Well you're correct, the ends are a bit off and its all just a bit clumpy. This is what happened when I tried applying a second layer after 5 minutes of applying the first. However it looked alright and I just left it.

You can see the shine coming off it, and unlike a lot of other nail polishes, it does not loose it's shine. I got a lot of compliments about the shine and the colour, so as a whole I would recommend this nail paint. 

Thanks for reading this post, I hope I've been of some help :)
