Tag Archives: Barry M Limited Edition

Hey there lovely ladies and gents! Sorry I’ve been so sporadic lately – I signed up for Amazon Instant Video and now I’m marathoning my way through One Tree Hill because they are ALL on there! (Who’s with me?!). But I thought I’d better tear my eyes away for a little while to update you all with another Barry M.

For the last 3 years or so, Barry M have released Christmas limited edition Nail Paints exclusive to both Boots and Superdrug (you can see this year’s Boots ones here) – well this year, they have added Tesco to their repertoire. And since there aren’t all that many Tescos that stock Barry M, this one proves a little tricky to get hold of! I actually bought mine from somebody else who was reselling it.

It’s that time of year again, and Barry M have once again brought out two beautiful Christmas glitters for Boots. These could actually pass for Halloween/Bonfire Night polishes I think, given that their names (Starlight and Moonlight) are very suited to those festivities!

I have to confess, when I picked mine up in Boots my initial thoughts were that they looked very similar, however as you will see below, they are quite different. Both have large glitter shapes in which is a big YES in my books! 🙂

Hello everyone 🙂 as promised, here is the Superdrug counterpart of the Barry M Summer Limited Edition Collection 2014 🙂 I showed you the Boots duo here, and today I have two more to show you! I have to admit, in the bottle, I much preferred the Boots polishes. I looked at these two and thought something along the lines of ‘sheer shimmery pains-to-apply polishes’ – I was definitely thinking along the lines of Barry M Aqua Blue and Aqua Green, which were much more toppers than anything. I also thought the pink from these two would be a brush-stroky nightmare, and quite a dated shade. So the bar wasn’t set very high!

…I am pleased to tell you that I was wrong on all counts! A quick note on the packaging – I love that the Superdrug lids contrast with the Boots lids, which are black with white hearts! Such a nice touch 🙂

Hey everyone! I have another exciting release from Barry M today 🙂 as is their tradition, they are releasing some two limited edition seasonal Nail Paints for both Boots and Superdrug. I’m showing you the Boots duo today (Bikini and Carousel), and the blogpost for the Superdrug two will be up in the next couple of days.

These seasonal limited edition polishes often have a unique pattern or design on the cap and this year is no different – they have the cutest sweetheart print on them; I think they’re so cute! Even if I hated the polish colours I would still buy these for the packaging alone, because we all know I’m a massive sucker for cute/quirky packaging!

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?!
