I have found a nail polish I just cannot fault! Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine Nail Paint is amazing! I love having pretty nails yet I am just too busy to have the time to get my nails done professionally on a regular basis. This is my saviour! I had read raving reviews of this product on beauty blogs and was keen to try it out for myself. Priced at a verrrrry reasonable €5.99, this is available in most pharmacies with a vast colour range to select from. I was looking for something to wear for my sisters graduation and wanted a classy nail colour to go with my dress. (Checkout the sneak preview below!) I went with shade 343 ‘Plum’ which is a deep purple, almost black-like shade.

A base-coat is recommended although I skipped this step, which I may regret when it comes to removing the nail polish!! I used two coats, the paint is very thick hence the ‘gelly’ look and has a fabulous shine ensuring a top coat is not even necessary. After 4 days of wear and only a few minor chips I am quite happy with the nail paint. With a regular nail polish I would have a lot more chips at this stage.

Have you tried the Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine nail paint before? What do you think?
