While some other brands have faded away or discontinued lines that I loved, the Gelly range from Barry M is standing the test of time and still going strong. Summer may almost be over (or maybe already over going by the rain) but there's still time to rock the Summer '19 shades! </div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
Now, I know this post is coming a while after the initial release of these shades, but I still need to express my excitement for a <b>YELLOW GELLY</b>. If you've followed my blog for a long time, you might remember me consistently longing for a yellow Gelly, and Barry M have finally heeded the call with <b>Banana Split</b>! It's a rich buttery shade of yellow which is bright without being neon. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The formula of yellow polishes tends to be a little tricky, though this one is definitely manageable. I used 2 coats then a 3rd thinner coat. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Blueberry Muffin</b> is a rich creamy teal, and in real life a bit more on the teal side than my picture suggests (teal polishes are a nightmare to get an accurate swatch of!) This is a true one coat polish! Usually I like to use 2 coats regardless, but I really didn't need to here.</div>

<b>Pink Grapefruit</b> (not to be confused with <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2012/09/barry-m-gelly-nail-paint-collection.html">Grapefruit</a>) is a sweet candyfloss pink. 2 coats here</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Night Moves</b> is the new Winter collection from Shellac creators <b>CND</b>, featuring 4 glamorous, party-ready shades. This capsule collection is available exclusively in the UK and I have all 4 to show you today.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
These new shades are available in both <b>Shellac</b> and <b>Vinylux</b> systems, and I'm showing you swatches of the Vinylux system, which requires no lamps and works as a regular nail polish. I'm using CND Vinylux top coat in all of my swatches.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>After Hours</b> is a twinking silver foil. This was very easy and smooth to apply and I used 3 thin coats.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kPMrdjj1xOs/XBPVYLx-JQI/AAAAAAAANss/tA1hAD2-XTA4zhGy6ql5VcQfF2533uBYACEwYBhgL/s1600/CND-after-hours.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="650" data-original-width="650" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kPMrdjj1xOs/XBPVYLx-JQI/AAAAAAAANss/tA1hAD2-XTA4zhGy6ql5VcQfF2533uBYACEwYBhgL/s1600/CND-after-hours.png" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Bellini</b> is as above, but in a beautiful rose gold shade. I often get asked for recommendations of rose gold polish, and I'm adding this one to my list! 3 thin coats</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Soiree Strut </b>is a frosty, shimmering champagne shade. 2 coats </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EnjrMoxl5aI/XBPVZd319kI/AAAAAAAANs4/PGQzmJnK9yYFxwv0-nEcJQgnaaOurtc-QCEwYBhgL/s1600/CND-soiree-strut.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="CND Soiree Strut" border="0" data-original-height="650" data-original-width="650" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EnjrMoxl5aI/XBPVZd319kI/AAAAAAAANs4/PGQzmJnK9yYFxwv0-nEcJQgnaaOurtc-QCEwYBhgL/s1600/CND-soiree-strut.png" title="CND Soiree Strut" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Lastly, <b>Kiss of Fire</b> is a stunning red with tons of shimmering flakes that look like they're trapped below the surface. I love this one! 2 coats </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-a76IADyqQME/XBPVYjHeO5I/AAAAAAAANs0/gFtYF-e80LADXEG-4VdKbiK5ghXfJpMZwCEwYBhgL/s1600/CND-kiss-of-fire.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="CND Kiss of Fire" border="0" data-original-height="650" data-original-width="650" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-a76IADyqQME/XBPVYjHeO5I/AAAAAAAANs0/gFtYF-e80LADXEG-4VdKbiK5ghXfJpMZwCEwYBhgL/s1600/CND-kiss-of-fire.png" title="CND Kiss of Fire" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
This is a beautiful little winter collection and available whether you wear shellac or prefer to do your nails at home (like me!) The Vinylux formula feels high-end and is a dream to apply, and I love the wide brush that comes with CND polishes.<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Carnegie</b> is a pale green creme, almost like a muted mint, with grey undertones. 2 coats</div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Walk On The Wild Side</b> was difficult to capture. I've seen swatches where it looks a lot more brown, but in my opinion it's definitely a dark olive green polish, with a hint of a brown undertone. 2 coats</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

I've always been a fan of the store exclusive, limited edition nail paints created by <b>Barry M</b>, and this latest pair of glitter toppers might be my favourites yet - seriously, you need these glitters! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
I love these so much I was actually twirling my fingers in front of my face and making "oooh" sounds (yes really) and I'm thinking of buying a backup of Afterparty because it's so lovely!<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Afterparty</b> is a predominantly purple and aqua clear glitter topper with some serious mermaid vibes. It has loads of large and small iridescent glitter which creates a mini disco on your nails. The colours are gorgeous together! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In my swatches, I've paired one coat of <b>Afterparty</b> with <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2017/10/barry-m-gelly-blue-jade-matcha.html">Barry M Blue Jade</a>. It's super easy to apply and one coat has more than enough glitter. I finished with 2 coats of top coat for a smooth finish.</div>

<b>Fairy Lights</b> is a predominantly orange/copper glitter topper. I tried this one over Barry M Black Forest, and the result is perfect Halloween party nails with zero effort at all. The orange iridescent glitter shines perfectly over the dark base. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my swatches I've used one coat of <b>Fairy Lights</b> over <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2016/10/barry-m-boots-superdrug-limited.html">Black Forest</a>, plus 2 coats of top coat. </div>

<b>Barry M</b> are back with four new Gelly nail paints for Autumn/Winter 2018 and I have them to show you today. I'm a little rusty when it comes to swatching, so please bear with me!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
All my swatches show two coats of polish with no top coat. I don't tend to use top coat so I can demonstrate how shiny they are by themselves, but I'd always recommend using it to help your mani last as long as possible. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

All four shades have the delicious buttery formula that the Gelly range is known for, and as always they're super shiny. I'm over the moon with Ginger especially, I'm wearing that on my nails right now.</div>

It's been forever since I've swatched anything from Barry M's <b>Gelly</b> collection, and I've certainly missed it! I know I've missed a few shades during my time away but I'm working on getting them up, and I've got the two latest shades in the range to show you today.</div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="text-align: justify;">Straight off, I'll admit these aren't the most exciting shades in the world, but I like to think of them as versatile rather than boring! The formulas, as always, are completely on point. My swatches show just two coats, without top coat.</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Blue Jade</b> is a navy blue. This shows up a little darker than my swatch shows.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Matcha</b> is camo green. This style of green is one of my favourites to wear on my nails!<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, it's time to blow the dust off my blog. And let me tell you, there is a lot of it. After being away for so long, I'd forgotten how to do pretty much everything, from hand poses to post formatting to picture editing. It took a good while to get back into it but I feel like I'm nearly there, and hopefully my posts are at least up to their old standard. During the time that I've been away I've also woefully neglected my nails (I haven't even been applying Nail Envy, which is a crime against manicures) and my cuticles are as dry as the Sahara, but I'm working on that.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, why did I disappear for so long? No one particular reason, really. Blogger burnout, mental health issues, physical health issues...it felt like someone sucked the motivation out of me with a giant straw. At one point I decided to close my blog for good, but I changed my mind, and I'm going to do my best to stick around. You'll just have to bear with me while I try and get myself back in the loop!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will be attempting to catch up on some older collections which are still relevant, but I'm jumping back in with something brand new. I received an advanced preview of the new Autumn/Winter <b>Models Own HyperGel</b> shades and thought this would be a great place to start back up, so here they are!</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm quite happy to be coming back with some moody Autumn/Winter hues, I will admit I'm not really in the mood for brights at the moment. Models Own have launched ten gorgeous new HyperGel shades, a range which I'm a big fan of and have covered extensively on my blog in the past.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
All of these polishes have a semi-matte finish, which is new for HyperGel since they usually have a high gloss finish. It works wonderfully with these shades though, and if you prefer a gloss finish all you need to do is add a shiny top coat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Flat Out</b> is a soft beige with a hint of pink. Probably my favourite from the bunch! Just 2 coats needed</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Padded Purple </b>is a dark violet. I found the darker shades a bit more streaky on the first coat, but they even out nicely with a thicker second coat. 2 coats shown here</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Supreme red</b> is a very dark, almost black red. Like if you put a bit of black food colouring in your red wine (not recommended!) 2 coats</div>
<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm impressed with all the formulas here, they're pretty consistent throughout, creamy to apply and non-streaky. The toned down shades would be perfect to wear to the office or just to match up with your Autumn/Winter wardrobe.</div>

The latest batch of <b>Metropolis</b> shades from <a href="http://www.cirquecolors.com/" rel="nofollow">Cirque Colors</a> have been released for Autumn/winter '16, and I have all six newbies to show you today.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Cirque's <b>Metropolis</b> shades are some of my favourite cremes of all time, and I often find myself reaching for one when doing my nails for myself (which is becoming a rare occurrence again!) I've been wearing Key To Grammercy all weekend from the <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2016/04/cirque-colors-metropolis-spring-summer-2016.html">S/S '16 release</a> and I'm definitely swapping to one of these next. But which one to choose?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Storm King</b> is a light dusty light blue-grey. It reminds me of a stormy sky, hence the name. Great formula, just 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-j3rW2xUwzFA/V_rO-iaF5OI/AAAAAAAANjs/20IYaVdaF7IAHCGGlBS0tsRpfpjQbKh1wCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-storm-king.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cirque Colors Storm King" border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-j3rW2xUwzFA/V_rO-iaF5OI/AAAAAAAANjs/20IYaVdaF7IAHCGGlBS0tsRpfpjQbKh1wCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-storm-king.png" title="Cirque Colors Storm King" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Dakota</b> is a light nude-beige with pink undertones, which is maybe a tiny bit more beige in real life. I used 3 thin coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Central Park After Dark</b> is a soft olive green. 2 easy coats plus top coat</div>
<br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Bond St.</b> is a vibrant berry red. Dream formula, 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jB_eHNDaCI0/V_rO8BDkwwI/AAAAAAAANjs/3PxXC1OnK1UkcMyWdhQdNHdH0TXvPCbfwCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-bond-st.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cirque Colors Bond St." border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-jB_eHNDaCI0/V_rO8BDkwwI/AAAAAAAANjs/3PxXC1OnK1UkcMyWdhQdNHdH0TXvPCbfwCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-bond-st.png" title="Cirque Colors Bond St." /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Fast Fashion</b> is a tan/rose. Much more wearable than the average tan shade, the hint of rose really makes it. 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zZi-vuwibTA/V_rO9hft52I/AAAAAAAANjs/Qv5bgUKPsGwNVzKmAHyvZflXPh6OiMETACEw/s1600/cirque-colors-fast-fashion.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cirque Colors Fast Fashion" border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-zZi-vuwibTA/V_rO9hft52I/AAAAAAAANjs/Qv5bgUKPsGwNVzKmAHyvZflXPh6OiMETACEw/s1600/cirque-colors-fast-fashion.png" title="Cirque Colors Fast Fashion" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Cosmopolitan</b> is a dusty orchid. This is pretty much the perfect purple. 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<b>Barry M</b> have launched new products for Autum/Winter '16 including some brand new additions to the limited edition <b>Boots</b> & <b>Superdrug</b> 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</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><u><br />
</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
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.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><u>Boots Exclusives</u></b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Enchanted</b> 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.</div>

<b>Black Forest</b> 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.<br />

The latest collection by <b>OPI</b> is <b>Washington DC</b>, featuring 12 new shades for Autumn/Winter 2016. This collection is a collaboration with actress <b>Kerry Washington</b>, who recently became OPI's first ever <b>Creative Ambassador</b> and has worked closely with the brand to develop the polishes. I have all 12 shades to show you today, guaranteed to get you in the mood for Autumn!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>CIA = Color is Awesome</b> is a dark teal creme. Good 2 coat formula, remember your top coat though as its one of those rich colours that could potentially stain (I say this with every brand!) 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

<b>Stay Off The Lawn!</b> is a lush forest green creme. I adore this colour! The formula is dreamy, practically one coat but I use 2 as a rule. </div>

<b>We The Female</b> is a rich garnet red. This looks a little streaky on my nails but it's not so in real life. 2 smooth coats plus top coat</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Pale to the Chief</b> is a light beige with a soft pearl finish, and the only polish in the collection that isn't a straight up creme. The white pearl sheen can't really be seen in my swatch unfortunately. The formula for this was a little patchy so I used 3 coats plus top coat. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Neutral tones are hot this Autumn and <b>Models Own</b> have got us covered with the <b>Dare To Bare</b> range; this brand new collection features eyeshadow, lipstick and of course polish. I have all 5 of the new nail shades to show you today, and theres something for every skin tone.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
It can often be difficult choosing the right nude shade for your skin tone, be it lipstick or polish, but you'll definitely find something here that's good for you. My skin is quite olive and yellow toned, so I think the darker shades suit me more (though the pinks look ok!) if you have fairer skin you may prefer the lighter shades, but it all comes down to personal preference in the end.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The formulas here are wonderful, I really can't fault them. Easy to apply and self-levelling with a beautiful glossy finish (even without top coat) these were a dream to swatch.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Undertones</b> is a dusky, fleshy pink. 2 easy coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CIW0Ipm3UqE/V-K2Il3IM5I/AAAAAAAANfg/laVu2eYcUOcfUWtTKsTPUkfo1GatASLIgCEw/s1600/models-own-undertones.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Models Own Undertones" border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-CIW0Ipm3UqE/V-K2Il3IM5I/AAAAAAAANfg/laVu2eYcUOcfUWtTKsTPUkfo1GatASLIgCEw/s1600/models-own-undertones.png" title="Models Own Undertones" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Suede</b> is another dusky toned pink, with a touch of lilac undertones. So pretty! 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pDMcLfSOD3w/V-K2IjHG0vI/AAAAAAAANfg/QPhKDkLIxTgHNfwvaqCGgIj4PWJP0lBDQCEw/s1600/models-own-suede.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Models Own Suede" border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-pDMcLfSOD3w/V-K2IjHG0vI/AAAAAAAANfg/QPhKDkLIxTgHNfwvaqCGgIj4PWJP0lBDQCEw/s1600/models-own-suede.png" title="Models Own Suede" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Skin Deep</b> is a muted terracotta which would look much nicer on a darker skin tone than mine. 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QY9h1P6gN_0/V-K2Hx8aVWI/AAAAAAAANfg/MTdGewF2E9EpL5ytJN_vJ0UFdL8UtvI2wCEw/s1600/models-own-skin-deep.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Models Own Skin Deep" border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QY9h1P6gN_0/V-K2Hx8aVWI/AAAAAAAANfg/MTdGewF2E9EpL5ytJN_vJ0UFdL8UtvI2wCEw/s1600/models-own-skin-deep.png" title="Models Own Skin Deep" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Emperors Clothes</b> is a light creamy beige. 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Deep Tan</b> is a milky chocolate shade. I can't work out if I like this on me or not, I'm on the fence! I do love the colour though. 2 coats plus top coat</div>

<a href="https://www.kbshimmer.com/" rel="nofollow">KBShimmer</a>, a brand I've long admired from afar, is making its debut on my blog today! <a href="http://color4nails.com/" rel="nofollow">Color4Nails </a>has provided me with the new <b>Autumn</b> collection which consists of a variety of beautiful finishes including holo, shimmer and creme. I have swatches of all 12 to share with you today.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I love collections that include a variety of finishes, I prefer them over a bunch of holos or glitters, and it also keeps swatching interesting! There's definitely plenty of choice here and I defy you to find at least one you don't love.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<b style="text-align: justify;">Grin And Gerbera It</b><span style="text-align: justify;"> is a deep pink creme. I'm suitably impressed with KBShimmer's creme formula! This is practically a one coat polish, but I always use two for a more plump look. </span><br />

I'm a little late with this collection but it's so super pretty that it's definitely a case of better late than never. <b>Soft Pop</b> is a collection of 5 bright pastel shades (in the nail world we know that bright pastel is definitely a thing that exists!) in the popular <b>HyperGel</b> range from <b>Models Own</b>.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These all have a slightly chalk-like feel to them, and you'll definitely need top coat if you want a glossy finish; I used Models Own <b>HyperGel top coat</b> for these swatches but any will work. For the paler shades, I found that 3 thin coats worked well, but with smaller nails you'll probably be fine with just 2. They apply pretty evenly and are self-levelling, and top coat smoothed out any slight imperfections.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Lilac Flush</b> is a vibrant lilac creme. 2 coats plus top coat</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm still catching up with the Summer <b>Barry M</b> collections in order to make way for the Autumn/Winter ones that will be landing soon (which I'm so excited for!) and today I'm showing you the latest shades from the <b>Sunset Daylight Curing</b> range.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you're interested in finding out more about what <b>"daylight curing"</b> means, you can find all the info in my original post: <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2015/04/barry-m-sunset-collection-swatches-and.html">Barry M Sunset Collection</a>. I also have a post on the <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2016/01/barry-m-sunset-autumnwinter-2015.html">Autumn/Winter 2015</a> shades.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Besides the great formula, I really need to mention the names of these polishes because I sit here and giggle at them every time (which gives you a little insight to my personality...I love a pun) I'm so glad Barry M are continuing with the song title puns and whoever gets to name them is lucky. Personally I think I'd be perfect for that job ;)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Pinking Out Loud</b> is a medium pink creme. 2 coats plus daylight curing top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Etk9mYE_cD8/V6u7fyo2GFI/AAAAAAAANbo/gknxSqzO_0wewSDyP_I_iv-XWpA46K1gQCLcB/s1600/barry-m-pinking-out-loud.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Barry M Pinking Out Loud" border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Etk9mYE_cD8/V6u7fyo2GFI/AAAAAAAANbo/gknxSqzO_0wewSDyP_I_iv-XWpA46K1gQCLcB/s1600/barry-m-pinking-out-loud.png" title="Barry M Pinking Out Loud" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>All The Things She Red</b> is a red creme with a slight coral tone. This is potentially a bit of a stainer so be careful! 2 coats plus daylight curing top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kxoioZRzMnc/V6u7emIPZfI/AAAAAAAANbw/gGwUsh3kMxIodamNDpA-aqtb1orx-NxBgCEw/s1600/barry-m-all-the-things-she-red.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Barry M All The Things She Red" border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kxoioZRzMnc/V6u7emIPZfI/AAAAAAAANbw/gGwUsh3kMxIodamNDpA-aqtb1orx-NxBgCEw/s1600/barry-m-all-the-things-she-red.png" title="Barry M All The Things She Red" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Bug a Blue</b> (best name ever) is a soft cornflower blue creme. 2 coats plus daylight curing top coat</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Empire State of Mint</b> is a mint green creme. 2 coats plus daylight curing top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IxPOhuHQpJc/V6u7evq3K0I/AAAAAAAANbw/g0gD7Fg-QoocJ2qUyr8qHief8IEQfjydQCEw/s1600/barry-m-empire-state-of-mint.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Barry M Empire State of Mint" border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-IxPOhuHQpJc/V6u7evq3K0I/AAAAAAAANbw/g0gD7Fg-QoocJ2qUyr8qHief8IEQfjydQCEw/s1600/barry-m-empire-state-of-mint.png" title="Barry M Empire State of Mint" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These are 4 nice additions to the range and are lovely colours whether you're interested in the "daylight curing" thing or not. The formulas are consistent, smooth and self levelling. Have you tried anything from this range? Let me know what you think!</div>

Today's post is all about the new <b>Polish For Tans</b> shades from <b>Models Own</b>. It may not be feeling much like Summer in the UK right now, but there's always a reason for brights, and maybe you're one of the lucky ones with your Summer holiday still to come!</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I explain a lot more about Polish For Tans in my original post (<a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2014/04/models-own-polish-for-tans-collection.html">Models Own Polish For Tans 2014</a>) and all the information in that post still applies, except I feel like the formula has improved since then; I found these shades much easier to apply, and didn't feel the need for a white base coat.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Models Own always nail it for Summer with the Polish For Tans shades, they've become my go-to for holidays and a couple always find their way into my suitcase. They're also great for gradient nail art and bright, fun nail art in general. The only thing is I think there's possibly too many pink shades! I'd love to see less pink in the next release and maybe more blues and greens.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've put together a comparison of all the pinks across the 3 releases so you can decide for yourself if you need all of them. Let me know what you think!</div>

You may remember around this time last year I shared swatches of the original <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2015/07/cirque-colors-vice-collection-swatches.html">Vice Collection</a>, which I loved so much, so I'm happy Cirque decided to add to it with 5 new shades plus a re-release of holo top coat, We Trippy.</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm such a big fan of Cirque Colors and my collection is getting huge (it's now 3 deep on my shelf) it's always a pleasure to swatch their releases, and they really know how to neon! The formulas here are wonderful, smooth and non-streaky just as you'd expect.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>High Roller </b>is a neon mint creme, which I'm totally in love with. 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Rehab</b> is a blue/purple creme which is more muted than the other shades, but still super vibrant. 2 easy coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-h6sxpN-N7eI/V55juV2pSsI/AAAAAAAANac/9FTXeBKulXQ4mV3f9ny3xaxGIlQhTYQbgCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-rehab.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cirque Colors Rehab" border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-h6sxpN-N7eI/V55juV2pSsI/AAAAAAAANac/9FTXeBKulXQ4mV3f9ny3xaxGIlQhTYQbgCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-rehab.png" title="Cirque Colors Rehab" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Electric Daisy</b> is a CRAZY bright neon chartreuse creme. If you like making a statement with your nails, you need this shade. The formula here required an extra coat for perfect coverage - this is 3 plus top coat.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1WkfoGqm0-E/V55jrwUT2AI/AAAAAAAANaI/GM5VXD9YTdIQyIumsC11F1XgweTpKxDnQCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-electric-daisy.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cirque Colors Electric Daisy" border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-1WkfoGqm0-E/V55jrwUT2AI/AAAAAAAANaI/GM5VXD9YTdIQyIumsC11F1XgweTpKxDnQCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-electric-daisy.png" title="Cirque Colors Electric Daisy" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Plastik</b> (I love that name) is a very bright, but not quite neon, pink creme. Amazing formula, this is 2 coats plus top coat.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eFkqUNXlVxs/V55juW-CHyI/AAAAAAAANak/3GPV6i8nWfIL8hS0Par4RxkonMWq1lWQQCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-plastik.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cirque Colors Plastik" border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-eFkqUNXlVxs/V55juW-CHyI/AAAAAAAANak/3GPV6i8nWfIL8hS0Par4RxkonMWq1lWQQCEw/s1600/cirque-colors-plastik.png" title="Cirque Colors Plastik" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Sin City</b> is a neon coral. Neon coral is one of my favourite ever colours to wear on my nails, I wore a similar shade to this in Florida this Summer. How could you not love!? This is 2 coats plus top coat</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>We Trippy</b> is a holographic top coat which has been re-released with this collection. Last year I did a <a href="http://www.britnails.co.uk/2015/07/cirque-colors-vice-collection-swatches.html">gradient design</a> featuring We Trippy, so I decided to do another one, this time using <b>High Roller</b> and <b>Rehab</b>. It really is the most perfect holo top coat, it applies smoothly in one coat and dries quickly. I sponged my gradient over a base of <b>Cirque Colors Carpe Diem</b> (white creme) and added one coat of We Trippy. I really love this!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's been a while! I had an amazing time in Orlando and I've been horrified by the tragedies that have occurred there recently, it's such a great place with wonderful people and they're very much in my thoughts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I return with a much delayed look at the Summer <b>Boots</b> and <b>Superdrug</b> limited edition polishes from <a href="http://www.barrym.com/" rel="nofollow">Barry M</a>. They're subdued shades for a Summer collection but definitely worth checking out.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There's 4 limited editions to pick up - two exclusive to Boots and two exclusive to Superdrug. I have to admit the thing I love most about LE Barry M polishes are the lids, they're always fancy and different every time. This time they're a lovely embossed rose gold! I think this is also the first time we've seen the names of the shops printed on the bottles.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Golden Sands</b> (Boots exclusive) is a soft nude with plenty of gold sparkle. This one dries matte. 2 easy coats</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5cUeZY3kCok/V2chiTCHK7I/AAAAAAAANZo/rJ1ZhyCitpAkyCPa3jKrUi9fs_UajEmrACLcB/s1600/barry-m-golden-sands.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Barry M Golden Sands" border="0" src="https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-5cUeZY3kCok/V2chiTCHK7I/AAAAAAAANZo/rJ1ZhyCitpAkyCPa3jKrUi9fs_UajEmrACLcB/s1600/barry-m-golden-sands.png" title="Barry M Golden Sands" /></a></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Beachy Keen </b>(Boots exclusive) is a medium tan creme. A little boring perhaps but a good 2 coat formula.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5GI2nbuFiUo/V2chcwCFKUI/AAAAAAAANZw/49hmuv6yjbssWx7h5sMRi9sVm6nPyBIkACKgB/s1600/barry-m-beachy-keen.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Barry M Beachy Keen" border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-5GI2nbuFiUo/V2chcwCFKUI/AAAAAAAANZw/49hmuv6yjbssWx7h5sMRi9sVm6nPyBIkACKgB/s1600/barry-m-beachy-keen.png" title="Barry M Beachy Keen" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Festival Fever</b> is a candy pink with gold shimmer. This one dries semi-matte. Amazing formula, almost 1 coats but I've used 2 for perfect coverage.</div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LZvMsYgGMHE/V2cheA5v8VI/AAAAAAAANZw/sOK7MIzNCUIvin_JdS8mipT7g5iCizDlgCKgB/s1600/barry-m-festival-fever.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Barry M Festival Fever" border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-LZvMsYgGMHE/V2cheA5v8VI/AAAAAAAANZw/sOK7MIzNCUIvin_JdS8mipT7g5iCizDlgCKgB/s1600/barry-m-festival-fever.png" title="Barry M Festival Fever" /></a></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Carnival Couture</b> is a soft beige with pearl shimmer, which is more evident in the bottle than on the nail. Again this is a little boring but has a great 2 coat formula. </div>

I'm a fan of Barry M taking a subtle approach to their Summer releases, although I do find the 2 cremes quite dull. The glitter and shimmer make up for it though and there's great formulas all round, as always! Let me know your thoughts. </div>

My final guest post comes from <b>Emiline</b> aka <a href="http://nailpolishsociety.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">Nail Polish Society</a>. Emiline's blog is a mix of beautiful swatches and nail art and I just love her flawless nails and macro shots. We're definitely going out with a bang with this super bright and cheerful summer design! </div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hello fine people! I'm Emiline and I run a blog called <b>Nail Polish Society</b>. I am so excited to be a guest on Allie's blog today! I have been following Brit Nails for years and this is slightly surreal. Allie showcases her swatches and nail art so well with great photos and those gorgeous nails! I've tried to create something special for this post and I hope you enjoy!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this mani I created some bright and funky needle drag/dry marble decals that have a sort of 70's vibe with the color combination. To make the decals I painted the polish onto my <a href="http://uberchicbeauty.com/products/mini-uber-mat-black.html">UberChic Beauty Mini Uber Mat</a> and used an orange stick to create the designs in the polish. Because I had some other nail art I was working on in the meantime, I let it sit for about 24 hours before taking them off my mat and applying them. Sometimes decals can be too brittle if left that long, but there was a generous amount of polish with these that helped keep them pliable.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QUgIUDjgRh0/VzOIcVbUzZI/AAAAAAAANYk/R-bYTIo_kPcl5ZEUZb7W3d3_jBF7Q39gQCKgB/s1600/neon-marble-nail-art-2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QUgIUDjgRh0/VzOIcVbUzZI/AAAAAAAANYk/R-bYTIo_kPcl5ZEUZb7W3d3_jBF7Q39gQCKgB/s1600/neon-marble-nail-art-2.JPG" /></a></div>
<br />
To apply the decals I removed them from the mat, decided which ones I wanted on which nail, and trimmed them to size. These neons don't need a white base to make the colors pop so I applied them on bare nails with just a tacky layer of base coat. Using a clean up brush and acetone I dissolved the edges to fit better and lay flush with nails. I finished off with one coat of fast drying top coat and I was done!<br />

My next guest poster is <b>Mina</b> aka <a href="https://cubbiful.blogspot.co.uk/" rel="nofollow">Cubbiful</a>. Mina is super imaginative and quirky when it comes to nail art and I love reading her blog to see what she comes up with next! She's gone with a nautical theme for her post (one of my favourite themes) read on for a closer look</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<a name='more'></a><span style="text-align: justify;">Hello, lovely people!! You have no idea what a pleasure it is to be here today!! I constantly drool over Allie's gorgeous nails and to be a guest on her blog is thrilling! Thank you for having me, all!</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm currently writing this post under a heavy thunderstorm (yes, I know it's Spring, but Portugal didn't get the memo apparently). So in order to fight back, I bring you full on Summer nails with this nautical stripes design.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I had some fun with striping tape, using <b>The Body Shop Crazy for Blue</b> over a white base.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I went crazy with embellishments - even added a bit of thread there - but I really wanted this to be sparkly and all about Summer: if you know me and my nails you know I like cute and bright :)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

Again, thank you so much, Allie, for the sweet invite - hope you're having a great time!</div>

My penultimate guest post is courtesy of <b>Milena</b> from <a href="http://www.nailthatdesign.dk/" rel="nofollow">Nail That Design</a>. Milena is currently a big blog crush of mine, I love her elegant photography and pristine nail art...she's one of those bloggers who seems to be able to pull off any style! Let's take a look at what she came up with for my blog today</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hello dear Brit Nails readers,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My name is Milena and I’m the blogger from <b>Nail That Design</b>. I’m really honored about the fact that I got asked to make an appearance on Allie’s blog! She’s one of my favorite swatchers and I adore her nails, so it’s a big honor to be here today.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was thinking about what I wanted to show you on Allie’s blog, and I thought to myself – what better way to honor Allie’s work, than to use her own shade, Unicorn? Unicorn was one of my first polishes from piCture pOlish, and I really love the story behind the polish, since turquoise is one of my favorite colors too, and I really do love unicorns and magic. So here you have a mani featuring this beautiful shade.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SbO21yeiYRg/VzN076QZZII/AAAAAAAANYM/wVvFDvAcRvw6YDLy_6G_IRn6ZCDkE79swCKgB/s1600/floral-stamped-nail-art-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-SbO21yeiYRg/VzN076QZZII/AAAAAAAANYM/wVvFDvAcRvw6YDLy_6G_IRn6ZCDkE79swCKgB/s1600/floral-stamped-nail-art-3.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To match the color scheme of Unicorn, I decided to paint two of my nails white with <b>Appeal4’s Hollis Milkweed</b>, and then I decided to stamp with <b>piCture pOlish Chillax</b> and <b>Appeal4’s Pink Sunrise</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NNUhfrXrBsc/VzN07KF0dPI/AAAAAAAANYM/rC3FUIfgluo86AyLS3tV0pux3WHpvZs5ACKgB/s1600/floral-stamped-nail-art-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NNUhfrXrBsc/VzN07KF0dPI/AAAAAAAANYM/rC3FUIfgluo86AyLS3tV0pux3WHpvZs5ACKgB/s1600/floral-stamped-nail-art-2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And that’s it from me. I really hope you like this mani guys! Thanks for having me Allie </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Kisses and hugs,</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Milena aka. Nail That Design </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<i>I'm so happy and flattered that you used Unicorn, Milena! You matched up the colours for the stamping so perfectly and my shade looks wonderful on you, thank you so much. - Allie</i></div>

My third guest poster is <a href="http://www.kelliegonzo.com/" rel="nofollow">Kellie Gonzo</a>. I can't tell you how long I've loved Kellie's blog, I can remember reading it before I even began my own. She is a swatcher extrordinaire and I'm so happy I can host some of her stunning swatches on my blog! Let's take a closer look...</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Hey all you Brit Nails readers! My name is Kellie and I blog over at <a href="http://www.kelliegonzo.com/">www.KellieGonzo.com</a>. I've been a nail polish blogger for almost seven years now, I just can't get enough of it! Part of the fun is getting to know so many amazing people all over the world. I live in rural Nevada in the US and how cool is it that I get to know an awesome chick like Allie who is all the way overseas in the UK! Pretty great! I'm really pleased to be sharing some polish with you today, these two shades are from Australian based indie brand Powder Perfect and are part of their boutique line.</div>
<br />
<b>Rainy Days Call For Greige</b> is "inspired by those beautiful rainy days where you are snuggled up at home under the covers, hot chocolate in hand, with a great movie playing." A lovely crème shade in between grey & beige, a fabulous neutral. The formula is thin but easy to apply. This is three coats. Dries very shiny!<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Principessa </b>was inspired Powder Perfect creator Jacinta's childhood "with 2 rambunctious sisters who loved dressing up our puppy & dolls and nicknaming them Principessa".This is a sweet feminine mid-toned pink with delicate multi-coloured shimmer. Applies like butter and was opaque in just two coats. The shimmer is subtle but definitely there.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
These two shades are available now on the Powder Perfect websites, both the <a href="http://www.powderperfect.com.au/">Australian</a> and <a href="http://www.powder-perfect.com/">US</a> based sites. What do you think of these two pretty polishes? Have you ever tried Powder Perfect before? I'm so glad to have shared these with you all today! Thanks again Allie!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Today's guest post is by <b>Magda</b> from <a href="http://www.redheadnails.pl/" rel="nofollow">Redhead Nails</a>. Magda is a blogger from Poland who I recently became familiar with and fell in love with her nail shape and stamping abilities. If you're yet to check out Magda's work I encourage you to follow her! Let's take a look at what she has for us<br />
<br />
<a name='more'></a></div>
<br />
<a href="https://www.blogger.com/null" name="more"></a><span style="text-align: justify;">Here we go! This is my first guest post ever and I'm so super excited to be able to post it here at Allie's blog - my Barry M guru. </span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Regarding my nail art, I tried to make something truly "mine" which is all shades of blue and a mix of mainstream brands with some Polish specialties :) As a base for this mani I used the absolutely gorgeous "Through The Glass" from <b>Dance Legend</b>. This polish is a stunner on it's own, but I decided to sponge some translucent shades from the <b>Morgan Taylor</b> Chrome Collection over it. I used violet, dark blue and green. </div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-U7ePy9UvwX4/VzIF1djx06I/AAAAAAAANWU/m--Z1uqP9ZEOlgVjc95bd3c8khFazxARwCLcB/s1600/glitter-stamping-nail-art-3.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://2.bp.blogspot.com/-U7ePy9UvwX4/VzIF1djx06I/AAAAAAAANWU/m--Z1uqP9ZEOlgVjc95bd3c8khFazxARwCLcB/s1600/glitter-stamping-nail-art-3.jpg" /></a></div>
<div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then I stamped it with one of my favourite designs ever, which comes from the <a href="https://www.etsy.com/uk/shop/Blueberrystorepl" rel="nofollow">Blueberry01</a> plate designed by a Polish nail blogger. For the stamping I used a mint polish from <b>Colour Alike</b>. This brand is already conquering European markets and it's one of my personal faves - not only because it's from Poland ;) </div>
</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

So you can see the result :) I hope you'll like it - Let me know in the comments. And once again, a big THANK YOU to Allie for this great opportunity! :*</div>

As I'm now sunning myself in Florida (and getting overly excited in Disney World) I've asked some of my favourite bloggers to prepare guest posts for me. Starting with <b>Emily</b> from <a href="http://www.emilydenisephotography.com/blog/" rel="nofollow">Very Emily</a>, a blogger who I've admired for many years and am now lucky enough to call a friend. You probably recognise Emily's distinctive nails and photography style, and I'm honoured to have her guesting on my blog today!</div>

<span style="text-align: justify;">Hello everyone! I'm Emily from the blog Very Emily and I am so ridiculously honoured to be here on Brit Nails today. I'm a huge fan of Allies so when she asked me to guest post for her I immediately said yes! Let's have a look at what I came up with!</span><br />

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For my guest post I did some needle drag nails, also known as dry marble. I'm no Sveta Sanders but I did really love how these turned out. I did have to redo a few nails a couple of times until I was pleased with the outcome. It's all about using just the right amount of polish without flooding your nails too much but still allowing for some dry marbling. I used some new piCture pOlish shades for this mani, <b>piCture pOlish Spring</b>, <b>piCture pOlish Gala</b> and <b>piCture pOlish Bluebird</b>. Finished with glossy top coat.</div>

You guys love a <b>Barry M</b> roundup post, so I've put one together for the brand new Summer 2016 launches! It's definitely not your typical Summer range and strays away from anything bright to focus on classic and natural shades, and there's plenty of new nail releases to satiate us. </div>

<b>Coconut Infusion</b> is a new range of nail polish from <b>Barry M</b>, with a new formula consisting of <b>coconut oil</b> and <b>coconut water</b> which promises to deliver hydrated and nourished nails. The line has launched with 9 shades for Spring/Summer which I have to show you today.</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
I'm intrigued by a polish containing coconut oil because I'm a big fan of it (I put it on anything and everything) but unfortunately as a blogger I rarely wear a polish long enough to test it to its full potential. I can tell you though that the formula of these polishes is amazing - and let's be honest, that's all most of us care about. It's smooth and self-levelling and every one was perfect in two coats (even the lighter colours, which is a pleasant surprise) </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In comparison to the Gelly line that we all love so much, they're definitely a lot creamier with a thinner formula. They're more similar to the Quick Dry range but with a better formula - they also dry really fast. If you're interested in seeing comparisons to other Barry M colours, I'd suggest checking out <a href="http://www.onenailtorulethemall.co.uk/2016/04/barry-m-coconut-infusion-full.html" rel="nofollow">this post</a> by One Nail To Rule Them All. Alice did a great job comparing!</div>

<b>Skinny Dip</b> is a nude beige. Hard to believe this was only 2 coats! I haven't used top coat in any swatches so you can see how shiny they are.</div>

I'm so pleased with the formula of this line, I encourage you to try them yourself! The only niggle I have is that there seems to be a lot of browns for one release, however you have a better chance of finding one to suit your skin tone, I suppose. Let me know what you think!</div>
