Top 5 Barry M Polishes For Spring

Spring has sprung and alongside the Spring lip colours I've broken out the Spring nail colours as well. And whilst there are loads of I could chose from these are the five that have been really catching my eye.

Frosted Cupcake Nail Paint in Marshmallow
This is one of Barry M's latest releases. I didn't think I'd like this when it first came out but I actually love this shade. It's a light pink shade that has iridescent shimmer running through it. It doesn't stand out too much on the nail and isn't overly glittery or shiny. It's perfect if you want a no nonsense manicure as it makes nails look pretty yet not too over the top. It's square ended flat brush makes painting nails a doddle and they dry quicker than your standard polish.

Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in Acai Smoothie
One of my favourites from the Gelly Hi Shine range Acai Smoothie is a deep pinkish shade with a purple undertone. It's thicker than average formula delivers a high shine that looks like it's come straight from a nail bar. It also has a flat square brush so application is easy and it's formula means you can get away with one coat instead of two if you're in a rush.

Gelly Hi Shine Nail Paint in Pink Lemonade 
Another Gelly Hi Shine polish in a similar shade to Marshmallow. Pink lemonade has a almost greige undertone which makes it stand out from other light pink shades. It looks stunning on nails and it's high shine finish makes it really stand out. It's gel-esque formula is thicker than other Barry M formulas so it looks like you've had a gel manicure at a nail bar but without ruining your nails.

Speedy Quick Dry Nail Paint in Freestyle
One of their Speedy Quick Dry nail paints I love at this time of the year is the shade Freestyle. It's more pink than Pink Lemonade but still has a greige undertone to it. It makes it more muted than other light pink tones out there and perfect for an understated manicure. These polishes dry even quicker than the Gelly Hi Shine range which makes them perfect for quick manicures. This formula is slightly thinner than the Gelly Hi Shine range so I'd advise two coats of this to make sure that it's completely opaque and streak free.

Coconut Infusion Nail Paint in Surfboard
The final polish I can see myself getting a lot of wear out of comes from their Coconut infused collection. The shade is called Surfboard and it's an off pink lilac tone that looks brilliant on both fairer skins and darker skins as well. This range of polishes contains Coconut Water to moisturise the nail whilst you wear it. There's no need for a base coat as they don't stain the nail. Two coats is enough to get an opaque finish that is streak free and stunning.
