Barry M Need For Speed

Another nail post, another Barry M Speedy Quick Dry polish to show you. I picked up a few shades from this range so I've been gradually trying them in between my other many shades and this one probably has to be the most unlike me colour ever. Need For Speed is a mid-toned true purple that looks absolutely stunning on the nails, though I can tell this won't be one that suits all skin tones. 

Once again this is a really great spring shade and it certainly draws attention to your nails when I wear it. Funnily enough, unlike the previous 'speedy' polish I tried, this one I actually did find dried quicker than average and it had a lot more of a glossy finish so I will disregard my previous review of 'Eat My Dust' as a one off experience. 

I think I'm going to be adding many more shades from this range to my collection soon as I just love the spring colours and the names are just fab! This is not a colour I'd usually choose but I took a chance and I happen to really love how it looks. 

Barry M Eat My Dust

I've never been a huge fan of darker blue shades (that's my mums domain) but give me a pastel duck egg blue polish and I'm all over it. Eat My Dust is part of Barry M's new Speedy quick dry polish range and it rivals some of my all-time favourite nail shades, being the most perfect cool pastel blue. It's such a fun shade for spring and one of those that you can't take your eyes off - I've had so many compliments wearing this polish! 

The only negative I have about this polish is that I didn't really find it to be all that quick drying. I applied two coats, as with all my other polishes, and it took just as long to dry as regular formulas do, with the first coat applying quite streaky. That was a slight disappointment but once applied, it doesn't chip for at least a week and that's really all that I look for. 

I've always been a fan of Barry M nail polish and while this one isn't quite what it claims to be, the shade and lasting power makes up for that in a huge way. I'll definitely be buying more colours from this range, though I think this one may have become my favourite spring polish; bold statement I know!
