Hello followers, Have you all had a good Monday? Yesterday I FINALLY got my hands on Barry M croc effects nail polish. I cannot express how long I have been after this, and everytime I went into Boots, they were out of stock. Typical!
As soon as I saw it, I snapped it up... along with their Gold effects polish (oh, and managed to get their free lip gloss too, BONUS!!)
So, lets put these beauties to the test...
I shall start my review with Gold effects. As with all Barry M nail paints, the polish glided on smoothly, the colour very strong and I only used one coat (unusual for me!)
The colour is amazing. I thought the colour might fade after afew hours, but no its still as bright as when I first put it on. I love it so much, I nearly never put the croc effect over the top, but the bottle was staring at me, begging me to try... so I had too!
I read the instructions (above) and got in abit of a panic. Touch dry?! How will I know if its touch dry but not fully dry!? What will happen if I do it too early or too late?! Ahhhhhh. I hate,hate,hate touching polish when its 'tacky' and it leaves a horrible 'print' mark, but alas it had to be done *sob*
I applied a layer to my nails and waited for the results....
....and waited.....
and waited.... blimey this stuff takes along time! It must have been about 5 minutes before any pattern started to emerge, and when it did, BOOM.
I messed up alittle with my second finger, but over-all, Its pretty damn good! My thumb looks exactly like the top of the bottle, hehe.
My verdict on the croc nails is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G.
I love it.
I seriously have no idea how they can make a polish make certain patterns, but its genius and I hope Barry M continues to create such good quality and unique products.
