After Blognix last weekend I thought I'd drop into town to do a bit of shopping and ended up buying 3 of the new Barry M nail polishes. Superdrug currently have an offer on whereby if you spend ?6 on Barry M products, you get your choice of a neon pink or a neon green limited edition polish. Now, despite my blog name, and my laptop colour..and my bedroom colour, I actually don't love the colour pink. And green is my favourite colour, so that was the one I went for! The first thing I love is the bottle, I really love the Aztec print cap, it's just so...jazzy!
Colour wise, this polish to me really is the definition of a traditional 'pea green' with a neon element. It has a standard Barry M brush, which I always think could do with being a little wider, (just saying!) and is a full sized polish, so worth roughly ?2.99. The formula is actually quite sheer, and 2 coats came out a little patchy but I hadn't noticed until I took the photo. A third coat did manage to solve this problem but the full drying time sharply increased, and in fact it didn't ever seem to fully dry, even after a few hours knocking the nail caused it to dent rather chip, rather like the High Shine Gelly polishes I have tried so far. I'm really not a fan of the formula, which is disappointing because the colour is such a nice one.
Overall, not a bad little freebie if you're planning on making a Barry M purchase already but unlike some of their past nail polish freebies, this one isn't one to sing about I don't think.?
Have any of you tried this yet? What did you think?
