Pink Nails: Barry M - Miami

Hey there!! After Barry M Malibu I needed to get my hands on another matte nail paint. The colours are pretty sweet but I love pink, pink and blue are like my colours so I went and got Miami and obviously Barry doesn't disappoint.

Miami is a pale coral pink polish (more coral than the pictures suggest) and it's so pretty. I think the matte finish is great too, I love the matte finish. This is going to be great for nail art and it's just such a nice colour.

I wonder if Barry M are going to release more of these, I know they have darker shades (not my thing) but I mean like more summery ones or they've forgotten about this line for now. I'm not aching for them cause I think the colours they have are nice but nothing I need to run out and get more of (I already did that). But I'd be interested to see more.

The formula was really good, I think 2-3 coats is appropriate depending on nail size and the thickness of each coat. It's very opaque and easy to apply, what more can you want?

Thanks for reading and I hope you have a great day!! :)

Blue Nails: Barry M - Malibu

Hello nail polish lovers!! This is a new purchase, my friend's dad wanted to go to the shops after school and I went to Boots with my friend and when I go to Boots nail polish tends to be bought. It was on offer? I was debating for ages about which polish to get but I thought I'd give the matte polishes a whirl. They didn't really get my attention from swatches but remember, this is Barry.

Is this not the most gorgeous shade of blue you've ever seen? Seriously it's so eye-catching and striking, and loads of people were saying what a nice colour Malibu is.
I'd say Malibu is a satin matte cerulean blue polish, it's not fully matte as you can see. Matte polishes tend to show imperfections but it really doesn't bother me at all when the blue is this fabulous and the imperfections aren't obvious.

I think the name Malibu is so cute too. I suppose when I saw swatches last September, I thought the finish was off (maybe it was just those swatches) and the colours weren't all that special but I never seem to learn to never underestimate Barry. Though I do love these extremely pleasant surprises, so yes I now need the rest of the collection like I say with every Barry M collection.

The formula is incredible, again I shouldn't expect anything less of Barry but sometimes I don't know what to expect. You could seriously do 1 coat cause it's SO opaque. I used 2 cause strangely I had long nails but it's actually so opaque (need to emphasise this) and goes on so smoothy and easily. Perfect formula, I love when polish is like this.

Thank you so much for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day!! :)
