NOTD - Barry M 'Silvery Lilac'

/ 17 comments
One of the newest shades from Barry M is this little beauty, 'Silvery Lilac'. 'Silvery Lilac' is primarily a muted lilac with a heap of fine silver glitter, though in different lights it transforms into bright green, soft pink, vivid teal, deep petrol blue, dull grey and gold-bronze.  It reminds me of unicorns, magic, swirling galaxies...basically, everything mystical and wondrous...

 On its own, 'Silvery Lilac' takes three coats to achieve a decent level of opacity. The multichrome effect is strong and the polish seems to glow - very cool! Unfortunately only the green and purple fancied showing up in photos -_-

Over black, 'Silvery Lilac' loses its uniqueness (in my opinion). It still looks awesome, but reminds me of a few other polishes since it's fairly common to have multichromes in dark bases. I think it would look lovely layered over milky purples and pale grey-blues. I can't wait to layer chunky holo glitter over it! Drying time was a little slow, but not unbearable. Overall, a fantastic polish I can see most people enjoying.

Lets wrap up with some bottle p0rn...


£2.99 for 10ml of polish. Available from Boots, Superdrug and online.

  1. So happy it actually gets opaque - I was pretty upset that Models Own Indian Ocean didn't, and I've heard that Butter's Knackered doesn't really, so this will be my choice for pale bluey multichrome goodness! x

  5. This looks like basically my perfect nail varnish! Kind of similar to Topshop's Hypnotic but this looks a little deeper with a stronger duochrome effect. At £2.99 I might have to pick this up if I see it :)
