Barry M Matte Nail Paint | Crush

 Hello Lovelies!

Alot of you will have already heard about the new releases from Barry M, the Matte Nail Paints. Being the massive fan of Barry M that I am, I instantly knew I had to get my hands on them. Being honest I had never really tried a matte nail polish before, I had gotten the Gosh Matte topcoat but only used it once or twice.

The colour that I chose was Crush which is a gorgeous deep red colour. Perfect for Autumn/Winter some might say! The formula is slightly thicker than a normal nail polish, so you get much more coverage with just one coat than you would with a regular polish. You could get away with just two coats, but in the swatches above I did three just to show you the effect. I have become obsessed with matte nails since getting this polish. I think it is just really different and nice for the colder months. All the colours in the line are perfect for Autumn/Winter and I will definitely be picking up a few more! 

I had this on for about 3/4 days before I started to notice some wear around the tips but considering I didn't have a top coat on I think this is fantastic. There were no significant chips at all! One thing I will say is that the matte effect does seem to fade, when I took it off it was considerably shiner than when I put it on. So it does wear off eventually! But apart from that I really can't fault these polishes. I am really impressed with what I've seen and will definitely have to try some other shades from the range. I hope that Barry M releases some pastel shades when we eventually reach Spring again, I just think they would look really cute!

Have you tried any of the other shades in this range? What ones would you recommend and what are your thoughts?
