A Nail Revolution!

As I've said on here many times before, I'm no beauty expert. I love getting all dressed up, but I lack a bit of confidence in the make up area and so tend to stick to the same routine on a daily basis. The one thing I do like to play around with is nail varnish, because that seems far less scary to me and I figure you can't go too far wrong :-)

I own quite a lot of nail varnishes and tend to buy a new one and wear it religiously for a couple of weeks. However, the nail varnish I bought recently has to be one of my favourite ever nail purchases - I've just never seen anything like it.

I'm sure you've read many reviews on different blogs about Barry M's Nail Effects so I won't bore you too much with the details, but basically, for those of you that don't know, the idea is that you paint your nails a base colour of your choice (it doesn't have to be a Barry M polish), let it dry, and then over the top paint the Nail Effects black polish. Then, before your very eyes, it dries and starts to crack, leaving a really cool finish.

I've tried it out with a few different base colours, and so far my favourite has to be Toasted Almond by 17. I think it looks really good with the black Nail Effects over the top, and almost gives a bit of a leopard print feel.

I've had so many compliments since I've been wearing it, and I telling people all about it who haven't heard of it yet - I feel very 'in the know'! One random thing I really like about it (and I probably shouldn't admit this!) is that when your nails start to chip you don't really notice it so much, so you can keep hanging on for those extra few days! There's a lazy girl's review for you!

Overall, this is one of my very favourite new products ever and I'm a total convert :-)

Good one Barry M - you've really excelled yourselves with this little baby! xx
