Barry M Spring Nail Varnishes

The season of pastel nails.
*this is not a sponsored post*
Here are my top 5 nail varnishes that everyone should have for spring! I love the Barry M nail paint collection, and I know they are quite popular with fellow bloggers because of their unique shades, quality and the price. They range from £2.99- £4.99 ( depending on the effect) at Boots and Superdrug.

1. Peach Melba - this colour is quite unique (probably one of my all time favourites) and looks great all through spring and summer. It is very similar to a baby pink shade, however has an orangey- coraly tone to it! I need to repurchase this nail paint this spring because I have only a little bit left, but I was wondering if anyone else knows of a nail varnish very similar colour to this one, I would love to try some others out!

2. Blue Moon - everyone has to have a baby blue in their collection for spring! It has a slight blue shimmer in it, but to be honest I have never noticed it on my nails. This nail paint, and the one above, bth a quite well known with the youtube and blogger beauty comminuty, because they are great for only £2.99! The first coat can be quite sheer, but you can build it up easily with a second coat to make it opaque. I think baby shades look cute on all nail lengths as well as skin tones, so make sure you try it out!

3. Gold Foil Effects - a gold metallic shade looks really nice on toes or as an accent nail colour. It goes really nicely with lots of other colours! It gives a nice opaque coloue with two coats, and with only slight streaks. p.s if you get nail varnish remover on your fingers and touch this lid, the writing and gold colour will come off *whoops*

4. Pink Irridesent - this paint is just amazing. Its base colour actually comes out clear, and it makes an excellent top coat for a bright (or dark) colour! It has flexes of blue, pink, orange purple, green e.t.c and the glitter particles aren't too big to cover the colour underneath (an opaque nail colour with this nail varnish alone is almost impossible). 

5. Silver Glitter - now I am not sure if Boots and Superdrug still stock this, because I got it a little while ago and it was limited edition, but this speaks out for all silver glitter nail varnish. They look great with all colours, or as an accent nail! p.s don't you just love the lid on this, soo sparkly! Also, another way to wear this is to paint your nails with a silver foil paint and two coats of this over the top and it is completley sparkly! wooo



So, thats my post!

See you soon,

(Early) February 2013 Favourites

So this is my early monthy favourites, and I just thought I would share them now instead of in the cluster of posts.

I think it is fairly self-explantatory, but basically these are the products that I have been loving this past month!

Firstly the Company magazine I have featured in the photo above, has been my favourite for ages. They range from £1-£2.50 each month and you can see my collection on this post by clicking here.
Also, my last post was a LUSH one, so if you havn't seen that I feature The Comforter Bubble Bar there. Click here to view that post in a new tab now xx

Firstly are my Hollister Body Mists. These smells amazing and sweet, and perfect for when I finish exercising. They are quite strong and do last a while. I have the scents Silver Strand Beach and Cresent Bay. You can see the full scent descriptions here on their website. When I brought these last month they were £12 each or 3 for £24! (my friend got the other one haha)

 Next is a VERY grubby Collection Lasting Perfection Concealor.  I actually only brought this last month also, but being in my jumbled make up bag did it no good. Despite this, it works really well. I deffinatley think this will be one to repurchase over and over. The coverage is so good I no longer wear foundation, just this and pressed powder for my base! The best part, of course, is the very cheap price. I got it in boots (full price) for £4.09.

 Next in my favourites are these two nail varnishes. I'm actually thinking of doing a nail varnish post, so if you're intrested please comment! The one on the left is from Barry M (Boots or Superdrug) for £2.99. On the right is a Topshop nail varnish at £5. I love both of these colours because the Barry M one is a nice wintery shade which is quite opaque and doesn't chip off for a while (best lasting finish Barry M nail paint I have, and I have 10+!). The Topshop one is the perfect colour to go into spring and it suits all nails. I find also that in some lights it looks pastel lilac and in others it looks pastel blue! Love xx
