christmas sparkle

I'm not a big make-up junkie as you may well have guessed by now, and this isn't a make-up blog, but I just wanted to do a little post on this little nail varnish I picked up the other day... 


In superdrug at the mo they have 3for2 on all cosmetics, so whilst I was in there to grab a new eyeliner I got suckered into the deal! I ended up buying two Barry M nail varnishes whilst I was at it! 
I got this gorgeous Red Glitter nail paint as well as the infamous Barry M 'Nail Effects'. 

After two coats of the polish you are left with beautiful glittery goodness! I LOVE my nails, granted the colour isn't for all year round usage, but I'm loving them during the christmas week!!! I feel like they are the nail version of Dorothy's shoes!  Soooo much love for this! 


Are you girlies painting your nails all festive-y?!

P.S 
countdown (please excuse the tackiness of this):
CHRISTMA-5 days
MY BIRTHDAY -7 days

P.P.S
Incase you where wondering about the Barry M Nail Effects polish, I didn't like it at all. I think it's a very clever concept, but did not like the end finish at all (and yes I followed instructions correctly- no overlapping etc). So I gave it to my best friend, hopefully she'll have more luck :)

I love this nail polish. Barry M is my fave nail polish brand and currently the berry ice cream (lilac) is my favourite colour but i've been debating buying this glittery red one for a while, looks lush!
