(please ignore uneven application, stubby nails and horrendous cuticles. I need a mani asap!)
So I usually dont go about doing my nails due to many reasons.
One - I can't be bothered with all the hassle.
Two - I am too clumsy to handle the prettiness (!) plus I have the horrendous habit of biting my nails oh-so-often but fortunately they are intact for now due to low stress levels lol.
How did I get to doing nails then?
Well I got this Barry M Nail Paint free with some magazine and immediately thought of slapping the color on to my nails. I usually avoid Nail Paints due to the fuss associated with them, i.e. streaking, chipping, fading etc.
I especially despise the application part as most of the Nail Paints I have come across have been a nightmare to apply and I usually end up with thick paint-like goopy nails!
Surprisingly enough this freebie was the Nail Paint I had been looking for :) Its super easy to apply especially for amateurs like me as it does not streak at all, is superbly pigmented and dries within seconds. Even if I apply it slightly unevenly, the polish adjusts itself and spreads out to give an even finish.
It gives a lovely glossy finish and does not chip easily. It does fade within a day or two and requires further coats. Maybe it occurred as I did not finish off with a top coat.
Overall, I love the hot pink majenta-ish color, although some may find it a little in-your-face, I am in love with it as it flatters my skintone in my opinion.
The press-on stickers are from Boots. You get an assortment of 100 in a pack for a fiver which I do find kind of pricey and hence will be ebaying shortly for reasonable options.
Let me know of your favorite Barry M nail or OPI nail paints for me to splurge on.
