Barry M Lolly Gloss review
Barry M Lolly Gloss polishes come with a luuush flat brush that make the application a nice stress-free experience, I think ALL Barry M polishes should have that brush (hint! hint!).
The formulas of the polishes were great, obviously on the sheer side as meant for a kind of ‘tinted’ look. The formulas also have lovely sweet fragrance.
As of the colour choice the collection is not very exciting, two of the red polishes are almost identical. I wouldn’t even bother buying both of them- it is just not necessary to have polishes so similar to each other. I would of definitely preferred to see more colour choice- a blue or a yellow maybe? However, I have a feeling that there might be another collection with more colours coming out later in the year.
On the swatches I am showing each of polish with three coats and no top coat. They are super glossy! However, with three coats they dried a bit slower than an average polish and therefore fast dry top coat is recommended.

Barry M Pink Candy
Barry M Cherry Drop
Barry M Purple Pop
Anyhow, I have heard that this collection is just perfect for something called ‘a pond mani‘, so I am planning to have a go with that soon :)
Talking about the tinted look, I defo prefer this collection over the OPI Sheer Tintstinted polishes (which I had but never swatched- not sure why). Anyway, they were too ‘sheer’ to be wearable on their own whereas these polishes look really nice just on their own.
These are priced £3.99 each, however, right now both Boots and Superdrug have a ‘buy one get other half price’ deal going on, making them a pretty decent bargain.
Thanks for reading! xx
