Barry M Gelly Nail Polish.

I have always been a big fan of styling my own nails.  Of course, who doesn't love going and getting a professional manicure, especially for a special occasion.  But it can save you a lot of pennies if you can do it yourself!

Having never really bitten my nails as a child, I am lucky to have a nice natural shape to my nails. My friends are always asking if I have false nails and my answer is always "nope". The only nail care I really do is to file them down and moisturise.

Anyway, back to Barry M. In my school days, I was obsessed with Avon nail polishes and I think I had them in about 12 different colours at one point. For the past 4 years I have been using up my Avon polishes and a few other stragglers, so now I am basically starting from scratch. I have heard lots of people raving about the Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine nail paints so I bought it in the colour Watermelon and have taken it for a test drive.

Oh my gosh! It is a gorgeous shade and is so pigmented that it only needs one coat. With other nail polishes I sometimes feel that to get a bold colour, I have to lather the stuff on! Not with Gelly Hi-Shine. Will have to wait and see how effective its' staying power is...

Let me know in the comments of other nail polish brands you would recommend.
