Barry MGelly Hi Shine Nail Paint, Grape Soda, 10 ml

Whoever has yellow skin tone, go for this, it looks amazing! Fairy shiny purple~ Remind you of a cotton candy and unicorn ! Haha . Love it! Highly recommended!

‘Grape Soda’ Gelly Hi-Shine nail paint from Barry M is a beautiful pastel lilac shade.It has a rich and pigmented formula that gave really good coverage in just 1 coat! I did apply a 2nd coat, mainly out of habit, and this made it fully opaque. It dried quickly - so I didn’t get any smudging or dents - and had a beautiful glossy high shine.The brush is excellent, it is wide and rounded at the end and this helps to give precise and even coverage in just a couple of strokes. I added a top coat, as advised, to protect and give longer wear. I removed this polish after 3 days (only because I wanted to try another shade in the range) and there wasn’t a single chip in sight and it looked as shiny as it did on day 1! This was after a lot of hand washing and housework so super impressed with the longevity especially as polish can chip on my bendy nails almost immediately - including the more expensive ones!I can’t fault this nail polish. I would go as far to say that it is as good as many high end polishes that are double, triple even quadruple the price of this. It doesn’t claim to give X - amount of days wear, but if I’m honest, I never wear polish more than 2 or 3 days before I’m bored and want a change. I was more than happy to get 3 chip-free days out of this polish and at £3.99 (9/1/21) I can afford to change it every day! ;)The icing on the cake is that it’s cruelty free! 🐇💘

I know a lot of other reviewers have commented it doesn't last very long, but I think it's perfectly adequate for an inexpensive product. I've been using the green for some time, and decided to try a couple of different colours.This is a lovely colour, my new favourite. I've had a few compliments on it too.I do find the brush quite big and slightly difficult to wield, but I have really tiny nails, and dodgy eyesight, even with reading glasses, and I still managed to make a pretty good job of it. They were doing really well for about 4 days, until I used some hand sanitiser at the gym, and after a bath I noticed they were all suddenly a mess. I do 2 coats of the colour, and it's perfect, I've had to do 3 coats with polishes in the past, that cost more than this. I also use the base and topcoat in the same brand, doing the topcoat definitely extends the length of time it stays good, I've experimented with and without.

I bought this colour as it's my little sisters favourite. She is in end of life due to breast cancer and I bought her one too,so we can match. Not normally a colour I would wear, as I always wear red, but I love it. Great quality and I used the wet set top coat. Love that the colour doesnt transfer when I scratch my nails on things like other brands. I bought a few colours and they are all just as good and great quality pigment.

My camera it doesn’t make a justice, in real life it’s looking way much better.This is I believe my very best french manicure what I ever made.I love the colour, this purple it’s looking very nice with the white.It’s easy to use, the white covering very nice the purple too and if I am preparing my nails well it last 2-3 weeks if I want to.

Nice colour however this is the second one I have and it's very clumpy and goes on badly. Shame as the colour is so pretty
