Barry M Nail Paint - The Good and The Bad
Heyyyyyyyylooooooo
So since I'm trying out quite a few of the Barry M Nail Paint range I thought I'd make a list of the good and bad shades. The list won't be decided by colour, it'll be based on consistency and pigmentation because for some weird reason different shades are more pigmented and consistent than the other.
I'll update this list every time I try a new shade :)
So here goes....
GOOD
Mint Green - 304
BAD
Nude - 342 (low pigmentation)

Barry M Nail Paint - Shade: 342 Nude REVIEW
Olaaa senoritas!.... or senoras?
Ok so I bought this shade a while back and it's my first Barry M Nail polish. Shocking I know! But I've just recently gotten into the whole nail paint vibe and used to use all my old stuff. Trouble is that it's ... Well old.
So I used this yesterday and I didn't like it one bit. I know Barry M do great nail polishes because of reviews i've read online and feedback from friends, im guessing its just this shade that's a let down.
The polish isn't rich in colour like I expected it to be, you could say that it's not very pigmented. It's quite a watery polish and I've tried putting it in the fridge for a couple of hours and re-trying but alas, it did not make a difference. I applied around 6 coats hoping I would see a difference but I didnt.
The picture below with my nail is after 5 coats of the polish which just shows how disappointing it was.
I'll rate this shade of the polish a 1/5 stars, the one being the brand and packaging.

GOSH Intense Lip Colour Review + Swatch
So I went to superdrug and found the new favourite. I bought GOSH intense lip colour in the shade blossom I think ( it doesn't say on the product itself unfortunately), I bought it because it was on offer at £3.99 from £7.99 and because I loved the colour. This is my first GOSH product and its made a great impression.
The product has a glossy creamy colour that's very pigmented and the glossyness reduces after around 10 minutes or so.

Rimmel Scandaleyes Retro Glam Mascara Review!!!
Heyyyyy girliessssss!! ... and possible lads
It was my birthday this week and I got a bunch of presents, this mascara being one of them. I absolutely loooovee mascaras I don't know why I do I just doo and I wanted to buy one of the scandaleyes ramge mascaras tooo soo yayyyyyy
I'll post some before and after pics too to let you know what it looks like worn on the lashes.
The good thing about this mascara is that the little black bits that sometimes come off the mascara throughout the day are non-existent which is amazinggg.
It's the kind of mascara that I would use on an everyday basis, it's not too dramatic yet it still does its job well
I like the shape of the brush too, it's different from the ones I've used before so it's a nice change, it also gives more volume to the inner and outer lashes which is just amazing.
Overall I'm pretty satisfied with the mascara and would give it a pretty good rating

I loooveee food and cooking but I'm tooo lazy to get off my ass and actually walk to the kitchen to make something.
