Barry M - Christmas Pink

Pink foil GWP   

In the run up to Christmas Barry M had an offer where if you spent £5.99 or more you got a free nail polish. Boots and Superdrug both had different polishes on offer.  Boots had the choice of a pink or gold foil.  I picked the pink foil to show you today.

In Superdrug they had an icy blue foil and a mixed glitter - more on that later as it turns out there were two different versions of the glitter...

Back to Christmas Pink...






Christmas Pink is a Pink foil with a silvery streak and a smidge of gold thrown in too.

It's very opaque, the swatches are only one coat, but 2 would probably have be better.

They also changed the lids to match so Christmas Pink has a pink metallic lid.

I was super impressed with this, it was easy to apply, almost totally opaque in one coat and I liked the colour/finish much more than I expected.

Anyone else pick this up?

I decided to pop some glitter over the top, a single coat of a Color Club holo glitter that I got in a boxset and so doesn't have a name/label (grrrgghh, that so annoys me!)




Sorry the swatches of this one are pre-cleanup....
