Barry M have launched new products for Autum/Winter '16 including some brand new additions to the limited edition Boots & Superdrug lines. Store exclusive shades have become a staple of Barry M launches and I always looks forward to seeing them, they definitely keep things interesting. I also have the new Gelly shade (just one this release!) so lets take a look
Barry M have gone with foil finishes for this round of exclusives, giving them a festive party feel. Unfortunately, the lighting I use has dulled the shine a little but I promise they're all super shiny and sparkly in real life.
Boots Exclusives
Enchanted is a warm cinnamon shimmer/foil with gold flecks. This one is my favourite, it's completely perfect for this time of year and has a wonderful 2 coat formula.
Snowflake is a light shimmering silver foil. This is a pretty basic silver foil but still packs some sparkle. I used 3 thin coats
Superdrug Exclusives
Twinkle Twinkle is a rose gold foil. Rose gold is everything right now and Barry M have got it so right with this colour, it's just beautiful. 2 coats
Nutcracker is a bright magenta foil. 2 easy coats
Black Forest is the one and only Gelly in the A/W launch. There's not much to say about it - its just plain black! Fantastic 2 coat formula though with the glossy finish you'd expect from the Gelly line.
My favourites here are Enchanted and Twinkle Twinkle, you need those in your life! It's also nice to have a basic black with a great formula (harder to come by than you may think) let me know your favourites and if you'll be picking some up.
Availability
- Boots and Superdrug exclusives available now from their respective stores, £3.99 each

Agree with your favourites, Enchanted looks particularly pretty and seasonally appropriate!
ReplyDeleteEnchanted looks absolutely mesmerising! I love those gold flecks. Beautiful swatches as always Allie!
ReplyDeleteI'd be very interested to know if the black gelly is any good for stamping?
