[Note: I've had a major breakage on my swatch hand *cries internally. So until it grows back or I get some matching falsies, I'll be using my cindy hand. Sorry for the less than perfect lines and poor posing.]
As with my last post, I'm sticking with reviewing the Barry M Gellies from now on. But we're going from my very favourite to my least favourite colour I own. Here we go...
Barry M "Lychee" is a yellow-leaning nude, glossy creme polish.

2 Coats Barry M "Lychee"
Before we go on, I love the fact that this collection has a fruit theme!
Okay, so, first to the colour again, and this is the major fail with this polish. This is definitely subjective, by the way, and no fault of Barry M. But as a personal preference, yellow-leaning nudes aren't for me because they don't suit my red undertones. "Lychee" also tends to really make my fingers look super red. Again, not Barry M's fault but my own for picking it out!
All Gelly polishes have a beautifully glossy finish, still noticeable in the paler colours, and a good formula. Lychee is thicker than "Watermelon", which in this case is good beccause it's easier to control. The paler Gellies are generally two-coater polishes. The formula is thin, so it dries quite fast, and self-levels perfectly. If there are any lumps at all, though, the liquidiness (word, lol) will get all squished and horrible looking. Gellies also do not last very long at all. It's sad because they're so beautiful, but for me they'll often be chipped by the end of the day.
It's not my favourite nude by a long shot, but it sure is shiny.
