Staple Nail Polish




When I first started painting my nails, I had no idea where to start. Not only is it extremely difficult to make it look good without going over the edges of the nails, but choosing a colour was even more difficult. I used to use the colours that I was given as a child that were like a disgusting dirty pink that would chip in 10 minutes.
I think a great place to start is to get yourself some classic statement colours that are a general 'must have' The colours I would say is; 1 pastel colour, 1 darker colour and a red. This is a great start to a collection, 3 easy statement colours that you can build on and decide which colours you would prefer. They don't even have to be expensive, I'm not suggesting you go out and find the most expensive branded ones, just cheaper ones that are almost little 'testers'.
I personally think that Barry M are the best drugstore nail polishes and are very easy to use. And at roughly £4 each they are really good value.

Silky Barry M Polish

I had really cold hands and thats why they're a little red
A recent trip to super drug led to a spontaneous purchase of the two newer nail varnish collections that Barry M have just bought out. One of the ones I bought is from the Silk range *yes, I couldn't resist the little bow on the top of the bottle* I picked the colour Truffle, number 403, which is a goldish silver that has a hint of pink *I think, maybe it's just me* but it's matte on the nail, which I have been reluctant to try as I didn't think it would look like this on the nail however whether you would consider it as 'silky' I don't think is actually true. The next one I picked *the 2 for £6 deal caught me out* was the glitter Treasure Chest in 404 which is a perfect match to put onto the 'accent nail' or on every nail depending on what look you prefer. The glitter has shards of gold and some pink glitter which as you can tell, goes perfectly with the goldy/pinkish/silver silk nail polish. The only problem with this nail polish is that it has made me want to buy even more, and push my nail polish collection to the limit. I might have to get rid of some soon *avoiding this as I don't like to make decisions*.
