Barry M - Classic Collection

I genuinely thought this was my last Barry M post. But... There is one teeny tiny collection I forgot about *laughing and crying forever. No biggie, they're not my fave brand for nothing! Now here's a treat: a mega post of all of my classic Barry M's! Some are new or their formula has lasted well, so they get the review run down. But a couple, like yesterday's "Black" and "Matte White" are too poorly for that. 

Barry M "Ballerina" is a mauve-pink, creme polish.

One of my newest babies, but one of my oldest loves. Mauve pink is super in fashion now but I've wanted this for years! And thank goodness, it's a good match for my skin tone. Super chic and classy, subtle but pretty, I will probably get cremated in this polish. How morbid.

Only issue I have with "Ballerina" is it's quite patchy, and for some reason makes its own gradient on my nails. See how it goes from a warmer shade at my nail bed, to a purpler colour at the tip? I don't know either. But hey ho, I could say that's deliberate.

(This picture was also taken after three days of wear and one hard night out.)

Barry M "Bright Pink" is a Barbie pink creme polish.

Gross story behind this: my sister found this on a train... Am I a tramp for wearing this? Yeah, probably. But it's worth the trampiness. This pink - nay, this PANK is delicious. It's perfect for when I feel like dolling up. That's not an everyday occurrence but it happens. Go, go, "Bright Pink"! You can be patchy and pretty lumpy (age, I guess), but you're sugary sweet to make up for it.

Barry M "Masquerade" is a blue, purple, and rose gold mixed glitter polish.

You got that right: two coats. Sponged on? Nope! I hate the sponging method of glitter application, sure it gives better pay off, but the mess is not worth it. Anyway, what a pretty glitter! From experience, this looks amazing over deep blue and gradients wonderfully. You know for a fact that it is a pain in the neck to remove though.

Barry M "Children's Toys" (nee "216") is a silver and mixed glitter polish, in a sheer red suspension.

This one came from my friend's destash, don't really know why I picked it honestly. Before this I wore it once, and hated it... But hey, now I know how to apply glitters, this doesn't look so bad! I actually really like it! It's like children's toys and fireworks thrown together in a bottle. Maybe that's what I should call it... Okay, now it will appear as if it were always called that lol. And yes, this is a stupid hard polish to take off.

As I said in my last post, I won't be reviewing my older polishes because that just seems unfair lol. They're seniors, leave them alone! But here are some swatches just to show you what they look like. "Metallic Green" (nee 162) and "Indigo", the most luscious blue to ever lush.
