Barry M Venus Sunset – Magnetic Sparkle Red

August 13, 2012 7 Comments

Hello everyone! If you didn’t see my message on the Imagination In Colour Facebook page, I am back from my holiday on the island of Barra, at last! I didn’t manage to post as much as I’d like to have done while on holiday due to a problem with uploading photos, but I’m back now!

I arrived back to a lovely surprise – three of the new Barry M Magnetic polishes on my doormat! I had already bought four of the five new ones before receiving the PR samples so some are samples, some are my own. The five are: Barry M Venus Sunset (Magnetic Sparkle Red), Barry M Super Nova (Magnetic Sparkle Multi), Barry M Moon Dust (Magnetic Sparkle Gold), Barry M Cosmic Glow (Magnetic Sparkle Green) and Barry M Neptune Sea (Magnetic Sparkle Blue).

Before I start, I wanted you all to know that the new magnetics are vastly improved in terms of formula, and they all have a sparkly-glittery effect which makes a wonderful change from what’s been in the UK market in terms of magnetics in the last few months.

GOSH Galaxy

After seeing the GOSH press release posted on Liloo’s lovely blog, I dashed out to my Superdrug on the off chance they were already stocking the beautiful looking new polishes. I was in luck – they already had four of the six new polishes – Galaxy, Spot On! Pink, Lazy Green and With A Twist. I picked up the first two – khaki greens and taupes don’t often grab me.

Liloo speculated that maybe Galaxy could be another holographic polish, since GOSH are re-releasing the fabled GOSH Holographic (now billed as a one-night-wear polish). The press release photo did promise a rainbow effect, but sadly it is not a holo. But, it is GORGEOUS! Think Barry M Copper but much darker, charcoal in undertone. Behold:

Sorry for my little absence, it was my birthday on Saturday and everything has been pretty hectic in the surrounding days!

Here is my new favourite green – not even exaggerating.

The other day I was craving a really summery manicure, I felt like I wanted something bright and eye-catching but not neon… and this is what happened!

Leighton Denny Babydoll

I’ve never been a fan of Leighton Denny polishes; they’ve never applied well for me and they’ve separated, been streaky or dried bumpy… the list goes on. I got Babydoll in a Glossybox a few months back, swatched it once (it applied streaky) and put it to the back of my stash. A couple of days ago, as I was sorting out my polishes, I swatched it again. This time, no problems whatsoever! So here it is. It may just have changed my mind about Leighton Denny.
