As many of you are aware, I am a HUGE fan of Barry M nail varnishes, their huge array of colours, their extremely reasonable prices and the quality of the varnishes are all components that make Barry M my number one choice for nail colour,
Barry M have just released their fabulous AW13 collection of Matte Varnishes and need I say it... they are amazing!
The coffee shop collection consists of 5 shades, from left to right- Espresso, Vanilla, Mocha, Caramel & Crush.
In the bottles the varnishes have the same appearance as all other Barry M nail colours. The consistency does seem a little lighter upon application but goes on shiny, again like all other varnishes. However as the varnish starts to dry (which is very quickly might I add) the colour starts to turn frosty giving a beautiful matte effect! I applied two coats of both colours I used, which was plenty. After two coats and when dried, the Vanilla turned grey with a pearlescent pink undertone and the Caramel had beautiful gold tones.
I love both of the above colours and am dying to try the rest, particularly the Espresso and Crush.
This range from Barry M goes on sale in Superdrug stores from today (Wednesday 25th September 2013) and Boots stores from 2nd October 2013 and will retail at £3.99.
With beautiful nails should come beautiful hands
Taking good care of your hands doesn't have to be a chore. There are things you can do every day to help your hands look and feel good. Developing a good routine and having the necessary products 'to hand' (excuse the pun) will help.
Making Lotil hand cream, a hand bag (and man bag) essential this winter, is a must.
Lotil is a very thick moisturiser which absorbs rapidly into the skin. It rehydrates skin providing maximum moisture and protection from the daily wear and tear we put out hands through.
Lotil is a medicated cream, designed to soothe cracked and dry skin and can be used anywhere on the body.
This handy little 30ml tube is the perfect size for your bag, however it can also be bought in a 50ml tube, 114ml Jar and 500ml tub with pump dispenser.
These can all be found in Boots and Lloyds Pharmacies and retail from £3.08 to £8.59
During the winter, our hands will be one of the most regularly exposed parts of our body. What more of an excuse do you need to pamper them?
