I have really enjoyed wearing lots of lovely brights and pastel shades this summer from bright pink to mellow yellow. I don't know about you but I am seriously ready for a change and there is something very refreshing about the neautral colours in this Coffee Shop collection from Barry M.
There are 5 shades Mocha, Caramel, Vanilla, expresso and crush. Each shade is very autumnal and reminds me of all the leaves we will start to see on the ground very soon... bring on the warm cosy jumpers and wooly boots.
So what is the quality of these polishes? Very good, which I have come to expect from barry M and these exceeded my expectations. They are definitely matte, give good coverage and dry quickly.. hoora!
MOCHA
A lovely neautral chocolately Laté shade. Good coverage, apply 3 coats for optimal colour.
CARAMEL
The lightest of the collection. Slightly yellow toned. Perfect for work. Apply 3 coats for optimal colour.
VANILLA
A beautiful warm pink toned grey. Very good coverage, only 2 coats needed.
EXPRESSO
Fabulously matte black, black. Great coverage, 2 coats will definitely do the job. Halloween nails anyone?
CRUSH
A beautiful deep burgundy toned red. 3 coats for optimal colour.
Overall, I love every single one of these polishes. The best thing about them for me is how quickly they dry. Usually I have to abide by the impatient girls nail painting guide but with these I don't have a problem. The only thing is with matte nail polish that you can't use a normal shiny top coat (unless you want to turn them glossy). Perhaps an idea is to pick up a matte top coat like this one from OPI or follow this video tutorial to make your own. Without a top coat I found these lasted 2 days on my uneven nails.
I predict these will definitely be on a lot of must have lists this autumn winter so get them while they are hot!!
