Hey everyone! I don’t know about you, but I’m a bit of a fan of relaxing and watching YouTuber vlogs and other videos after work with a cuppa. On of my all-time favourite YouTubers has always been Tanya Burr, and of course when she released her #TanyaBurrLipsandNails collaboration with Eye Candy, being the avid nail polish collector I am, I had to try at least one! When they finally made their way to my local Superdrug (Bournemouth Superdrug were a week late from the launch…!), I ended up choosing a very ‘me’ shade; Little Duck.

Barry M Birthday for Superdrug
Hey girlies! (And boys!) Sorry I missed one or two nights this week, time just seems to go so quickly and before I know it it’s 10pm and I’ve only got an hour before bed! Hope you’re all well. Today I have a super fun polish to show you, and it’s limited edition so eyeballs open please! 😉
Our beloved Superdrug (a UK drugstore for anyone reading outside the UK) is 50 years old this week, and quite a few brands have stepped up and produced a product in honour of Superdrug’s 50th Birthday! Barry M Birthday is one such product and I don’t think I’ve seen a polish more suited to parties and birthdays than this one! It’s girly, fun, glittery… what’s not to love?!
Barry M Pacific
Hey everyone! It’s another one from the Barry M Aquarium  today! I am all over this collection seriously – I’m not sure whether it’s been my resisting buying for so long or whether they really are amazing, but I am loving them!! Here is my second favourite of the duochromey ones – Pacific (following the water theme!)
I feel like I’ve seen this colour before in a polish but I don’t own any like it so I’m fine with that. 🙂 I do love a good teal polish! A quick note on the pictures – my camera picked up the brush stroke pattern really well (sometimes high definition isn’t such a good thing I suppose!) but basically the polish doesn’t look as brush-strokey in person as it does in the pics. But no matter what I did, it wasn’t happening through the lens!
Barry M Caspian
Hello everyone! I am unbelievably excited to be showing you the Barry M Aquarium Collection this week. As I’ve mentioned before, we’ve been pinching the pennies for a little while, so things like nail polish have taken a slightly inferior seat recently compared to things like food and rent! However now I’m working and had my first payslip I’ve been able to treat myself to the new collection, which I’ve been lusting after since the moment I saw they were coming out!!
The Aquarium Collection has been the top of my list (you know how I feel about my beloved Barry M!) because while duochromes have been ‘in’ for a good 2 years, brands seem to keep releasing the same colours – however I spotted at least two which look totally unique to me in this collection! So on Friday I visited Boots and Superdrug… because I felt like if I bought 12 polishes in one go I’d be exposed for the true addict I am…! So I got 6 from each (which still raised two sets of eyebrows… but I needed them!!) as they had virtually the same offer on (Boots buy one get one half price and Superdrug two for £6 on all £3.99 Barry M Nail Paints).
Models Own Dove Speckled Eggs
Hey everyone 🙂 if you read my review of Models Own Magpie, you’ll know I was lucky enough to win the full Models Own Speckled Eggs Collection in their Instagram giveaway! I couldn’t wait to try them all so here is my second favourite, ‘Dove’. I’m not sure where the inspiration correlates with the name here… dove eggs are a little pinky, but they’re certainly not speckled! And doves themselves can have a little pinky-peachyness to their colour… I’m not sure! Or maybe I’m reading too much into the names…!! Hehe 🙂
