Barry M - "Denim"

My latest obsession is Nail Polish. Despite not being allowed to wear it at work, i seem to have accumulated a rather large stash of various brands. Even if i only have 1 day off, i HAVE to paint my nails; i feel naked without a splash of colour on them. 

I popped in to Superdrug for a few essentials the other day and left with the Barry M shade "Denim". 

I'm a huge fan of all these new nail effects and i love the look of the Denim & Stud's from Nails Inc. However at the moment i cannot justify spending lots of money on these higher-branded products as i'm not wearing them as much as i would like :(

So yes, i bought "Denim" (325) from Barry M as it was 2 polishes for £5, so i also bought a lovely pink shade "Fuchsia" (302). As if i need any excuse to buy any products, but seeing the 2 for £5 made me feel better about it!

So this shade isn't labeled as an "effect" but i think it applies like one, so that's what it is to me! I LOVE this polish. I understand its been around a fair time, so isn't a new product as such, but i have only just discovered it. I normally wear Nails Inc or Rimmel polishes, but couldn't resist this shade. I only applied one coat on Monday, it's now Wednesday night and this polish hasn't chipped at all. I didn't have time to apply a top coat either so i'm very impressed! It goes on matte, but as i was in a rush i had a few squirts of a Quick Dry Nail Spray which made it look glossy, but either way it looks lovely. I'm really impressed with this shade, as some of the other Barry M shades i have used in the past had to have at least 2 coats applied for a good finish. I honestly cannot fault this in any way, its a fantastic price and looks lovely. A few of my friends have asked where i got it from as they really like it, which is a bonus. I really wanted to get a swatch up of this shade but unfortunately my precious laptop is broken, and i don't think the university would be overly happy with me using their computers to upload my beauty pictures!

I haven't used the other shade i bought yet, as i'm now working through to Tuesday. However, after that i'll be sure to get another review up!
