A Sweet Treat

♥ Hey sugar lumps ♥
You know that age old decision that strikes a girl down every so often...
"What colour shall I paint my nails tonight?!"
I too was baffled my this dilemma the other night.
Confronted with 50 zillion gorgeous nail varnishes, it seemed too cruel to limited my nails to just a splash of one of my wondrous colours.
So voila...I indulged in not one...not two...but five different cute colours for my nails!
♥
♥
The moment Barry M decided to launch their ice cream, cotton candy colours...I was instantly wowed by their perfect pastel shades.
So over a few visits to Boots, I built up my little Ice Cream collection, and decided to treat my talons to some sweet treats! :)

♥ Mint Green # 304
♥ Blueberry Ice Cream # 306
♥ Lemon Ice Cream #307
♥ Berry Ice Crem #308
♥ Strawberry Ice Cream #309 

♥
I did each hand differently and I absolutely love this effect. So cutesy and summery! :)
They remind me of old fashion sweeties, like sugared almonds and candy canes.
♥
So my little lollipops...what are your thoughts?
Have you got any of the Barry M ice cream collection and which is your fav shade?
I personally love the Strawberry and Berry ones! :)

on you these look like medium/thick creme colours but the ones I have are SO watery and awful, I think I had to do 5 coats of the Mint Green so im not a fan of Barry M Polishes!

I have Berry and Lemon ice cream. I prefer Berry out of the two, such a gorgeous polish! x

Kelly said...

OMG! How on earth did you manage to get the yellow and pink turn out like that? They just go streaky and blah on me even after like 5 coats *hmpf* *sulky face*

Lauren said...

Ahh I have all those colours, apart from the yellow. They're gorgeous. I love Barry M.

However, my sister has the yellow and I just dont think I'd suit it. I kinda feel like I've dipped my fingers in custard :(

Milly said...

Thanks for your comments. Pleased to hear you approve of the pastelly popsicle shades :)
Those of you who have had issues with the finish of the Barry M nail polishes. I should have said, I am wearing false nails here so that may alter the way it finishes on my nails as opposed to natural nails :)
