Striped Nail Art

Day 12 of the 30 Days of Untrieds Challenge: stripes! So I know I am sooo late on this one, being that it’s now 19th September and this was meant to be posted on the 12th, but I have a new job as a ‘team player’ (waitressing, bar staff, cleaning etc.) at a local-ish pub restaurant, which is taking up pretty much all my time at the moment and of course wearing bold nail polish is a bit of a no-no, so I’m struggling to keep up with the challenge but rest assured, I will finish it even if it’s a bit late!

Barry M Plum Gelly

The first thing I want to mention about this polish is that some of the bottles of ‘Plum’ and ‘Blackberry’ were unfortunately mislabelled – so if you pick up the dark purple shown here and find it to be labelled ‘Blackberry’, don’t be alarmed, you do have the right one! Same goes for the deep blue being labelled ‘Blue Plum’ as opposed to ‘Blackberry’. (Just follow the colours you will find on the press release of the Barry M Gelly Nail Paints!)

These polishes have a gel-like finish, kind of like Shellac, Gelish etc. – i.e. it’s really opaque and really shiny! They will be released on the Barry M website on 21st September26th September in Superdrug and 3rd October in Boots, and will cost £3.99 each.

Here is Barry M Plum Gelly Nail Paint 1.

Red Dotted Nail Art

Day 11 of the 30 Days of Untrieds Challenge: polka dots! I’m not convinced I did a great job of doing ‘polka’ dot nails but they are certainly dotted!

Barry M Satsuma Gelly

Here is another Barry M Gelly Nail Paint – this one is called Barry M Satsuma Gelly Nail Paint 7. They will be released on the Barry M website on 21st September26th September in Superdrug and 3rd October in Boots. They will cost £3.99 each.

As I mentioned in my review of Barry M Blueberry, the ‘gelly’ title refers to the gel-like nature of the polish, like Shellac, Axxium, Gelish etc., meaning they are high gloss and very opaque.
