Friday Night Nails

I seem to be having a Barry M day today.
Tonight Im wearing the beautiful Grey Nail Paint by Barry M which can be purchased for £2.99 from the online store. This is a gorgeous colour, it looks quite blue toned in the pictures and I think its a little different from the colours I usually wear. Application was fantastic and a beautiful shiny finish was achieved with two coats. Perfect.





What do you guys think ?

Today Im wearing the gorgeous Vintage Rose by Barry M.
This is nice neutral shade which I think would suit most complexions.
The lipstick is highly pigmented and feels smooth and creamy on application however after a few minutes I did tend to find it rather drying - this is a lovely colour but I definately needed a slick of balm or gloss with this to counteract the drying effect.
Barry M Lip Paint is available to buy from the online store for £4.49.




Whats your favourite Barry M Lip Paint ?

Friday Night Nails

This Friday night Im wearing the fantastic Jem by Zoya which is from the Smoke and Mirrors collection. Jem is an amazing opaque deep purple polish with golden undertones and has a hint of pinky purple shimmer to it. What I did notice though is when applied you dont really get the hint of gold which you see in the bottle - Strange !
Zoya nail polish is a dream to apply and I achieved this finish with two coats .
Jem was quick to dry and had a lovely shiny finish.
Very striking indeed.
Zoya nail polish can be purchased from LalaofLondon.com for £9.99.









What are you wearing on your nails this Friday ?

Lipstick Fridays

Todays lipstick is one Ive had for a while, I had kind of forgotten about until I was rumaging about my lipsticks to see what one I was going to wear today.
This Friday Im wearing Blondie Pink by Bobbi Brown which can be purchased online for £18.00. Blondie Pink is described as a medium nude pink and is amazing to wear, its rich in pigments, glides on easily and is so soft and creamy but feels lightweight on the lips.
