SWATCHES: Barry M Gelly Hi Shine // Candy Floss, Cotton & Black Forest

SWATCHES: Barry M Gelly Hi Shine // Candy Floss, Cotton & Black Forest

After purchasing the some of the new 2020 Gelly shades I noticed there was a 3 for 2 on and decided to get some more just because I forgot how great the formula is. So here are some more swatches from the mini haul!

Candy Floss // Cool Pastel Pink Crème

Release: January 2020

This wasn't what I thought it was going to be based off the photos online (but when does that pan out?) but I still like it. I thought it was going to be a soft but bright pink and in very bright light it actually looks off-white. But in normal daylight it's quite soft and delicate. perfect for those who don't like "in your face" pink shades. Due to this it does need 3 coats just to cover the streaks. I'm wearing two and it looks ok in the photos, but there is a couple of streaks up close. It's nice and glossy though and the formula is easy to work with.

Cotton // White Crème

This wonderful white shade is ever so slightly off-white and has more of a cool/blue tone when compared directly against other pure white shades. The best thing about this shade though is that it's almost a one coat wonder. I'm a little shocked at how opaque it is. The formula is probably the thickest I've encountered for a Gelly polish and is a little tricky to apply but if you float one big blob you can get away with one coat. I think this has become my favourite for ombre's though as you only need that initial coat and it dries within about 2 minutes. I'm wearing 2 coats in the swatch though.

Black Forest // Black Crème
Release: Winter 2016

Behold, for I have found, a one coat black that costs under a fiver. Seriously, this stuff is ready in just one coat. I never wear black by itself but use it for backgrounds and space nails and this polish is just fantastic. It isn't as shiny as the others but I can deal with that.
