Barry M Nail Polish Review

When I was in London during Christmas and (as always) went to TopShop. At the Barry M counter (which is orgasmic for me) I saw two nail poishes which grabbed my attention IMMEDIATELY!!

1. Barry M Nail Paint in "Mushroom 310"

So, a while ago there was this Gossip Girl episode in which Serena had on a mushroom brown nail polish on her (ridiculously) long nails! Since then I almost died searching for the perfect shade of brown. FINALLY I FOUND IT!

So here it goes my review:

Pigmentation and Formula: 20/20

For Barry M Nail Paints I feel that 2 coats gives an expert, manicure appearance. The creamy formula of the polish is amazing and goes on evenly.

Gloss/Shine: 20/20

Even without a top coat Barry M nail polishes are AMAZINGLY glossy and shiny!

Quick Dry Power: 15/20

In general a coat of any Barry M nail paint dries in about 15 minutes which is amazing seeing as it dries completely!

Staying Power: 20/20

One of the only nail polish brands I've come across that stays on for more than 2 days without constantly going over it with a clear coat!

Packaging: 10/10

For the price (only £2.95) the packaging is amazingly well done and professional. Everything from the shape of the bottle to the font type and color. It's just so simply appealing to the eye.

Removability: 10/10

It comes off so easily even with a million top coats over it. So quick!

Total score: 95/100

A+

2. Barry M Instant Nail Effects Nail Paint

Pigmentation and Formula: 15/20

Love that if not applied over a nail polish and applied directly onto the nail is serves as a Matte Black polish. The color isn't always a deep black which is kind of disappointing but the effect is reached immediately.

Gloss/Shine: 0/20

It comes up matte but it's acceptable seeing as it is just a design polish.

Quick Dry Power: 15/20

Dries almost immediately which is astonishing. 1 - 2 minutes and it's already completely dry!

Staying Power: 20/20

Stays on for about 3 - 4 days without constant touch ups!

Packaging: 10/10

For the price (only £3.95) the packaging is amazingly well done and professional. Everything from the shape of the bottle to the font type and color. It's just so simply appealing to the eye. The design on the wand top is adorable as well, reminds me of a barcode.

Removability: 10/10

It comes off so easily even with a million top coats over it. So quick!

Total score: 70/100
