Feeling rather down from jet-lag and a long & stressful day of work, i decided to utilize one of my new Barry M Nail Paints that i bought while in London. (I had such a laugh at the comments & tweets i got on my huge Barry M spree! Love you guys :). I opted for the shade 318 Peach Melba, which was love at first sight really!
It's a creamy, pinky-peach color and almost comes off as fluorescent (without being in-your-face neon). It makes me smile whenever i look at it (sad i know), such a perfect color for spring and summer! I quite like the formula as it dries fairly quickly - i get stir crazy if my nail polish takes too long to dry - but it did go on a bit streaky. It took three coats to get to an opacity i liked, but i didn't mind too much honestly since again, it didn't take forever to dry!
I'm quite impressed with the staying power as well. I painted my nails Saturday afternoon and it's now Tuesday.. usually my nails would be crazy chipped & peeling by now, but Peach Melba's not budging. :)

This first little dive into Barry M Nail Paints left me feeling very satisfied. I mean, imagine purchasing £27+ worth of nail polish and hating the formula of it or something! That would be one big *facepalm* indeed.
Sorry about the delay on my London posts (clothes/accessories haul & photos from my trip) everyone. As i believe i said before, it would be impossible to take photos of all the clothes, so i'm going to try & film a video, but finding the time & privacy to do so may be a bit challenging! And i took over 1000 photos during my trip so going through them & choosing which ones to post (not to mention watermarking them) will take a while! Will try to get on that asap though. ;)
