I'm not incredibly familiar with Barry M nail polishes. In fact, this is only my second polish by them - surprising, as they're so cheap and come in an amazing array of colours and glitters. A few weeks ago I picked up the Pink Sapphire Glitter polish. I have plenty of glitters in my collection, but none like this. It's a mixture of pink and holographic chunky hexagonal particles, with smaller pieces of pink glitter and holographic strands (or bar glitter) in a clear base coat.
I really like colourful glitters over white, so my base of choice was OPI's "My Boyfriend Scales Walls." The above picture shows two coats - one is enough, but I wanted a tad extra sparkle. As with a lot of glitter polishes, the larger chunks do need a bit of repositioning on the nail so they don't cram together, but this wasn't much of a problem for me. The drying time is average - not super fast, but not painstakingly slow either which is great for the impatience in me.
Pink Sapphire Glitter is part of the Barry M Jewel Glitter range, which consists of 7 polishes perfect for the party season, and retail for £2.99 each in both Boots and Superdrug. What do you think of this polish? I love it!


This is so gorge!!!
ReplyDeleteThe whole collection looks amazing! I just wish they weren't flying off the shelves as much as they're harder for me to find in store haha :)

I can't believe I'd never tried any of their polishes sooner than I did because they're so affordable! I'm definitely keeping my eye out for the rest of the collection x
DeleteLooks so gorgeous with that blue colour! I have a few Barry M's but I find the normal range polishes take a long time to dry and I'm so unbelievably impatient that I avoid using them now. The glitter ones may be different though so I might have to give them a go.

Ahh it's actually a greyish white colour but the bad lighting in the photo has tinged it blue! I find that glitters tend to dry quickly whatever the brand so they're worth checking out, especially since they're only £2.99 :)
DeleteThis combination looks gorgeous. I really want to get my hands on some Barry M polishes, because they look stunning. But I haven't gotten the chance to just yet! Great blog - I just found it! :D x
ReplyDeleteThank you :) It's definitely worth grabbing a few, especially if they're on 3 for 2!
DeleteI have this and it is my favourite topcoat atm for on top of Models Own Utopia :) xo
ReplyDeleteI don't actually have Utopia but I've heard lots about it, might have to check it out :) x
DeleteThis is so pretty! Looks really nice with the base coat too :)

It doesn't look as nice without a base underneath, but I think it could work with quite a few colours :)
DeleteI love this, the mixing of textures of the glitter is gorgeous!
