I’m pretty disappointed with Lavender by Barry M. I’ve painted two layers on top of Pale Purple (Barry M) and “underwhelming” doesn’t even cover it. I wanted disco sparkles and because purple’s everywhere right now. Lavender looked perfect, but my nails look more “8 year old party princess” than anything else at the moment. The clear polish has tiny pieces of silver glitter and a few pieces of the purple, averaging just six per nail. Baz, if you’re reading, swap the silver and purple and you’re in there.
On my quest for perfect purple glitter nails I’ve ordered Disco Mix and Magenta Divine from Models Own (along with five or six others…). At £5 a pop they’re fairly reasonable, and if you order only you get multibuy discount, so I paid £30 for 8 polishes. BARGAIN.
Tomorrow holds in store a trip to Gunwharf Quays with the mothership, and she’s paying. The Cosmetics Company, here I come!
