Im back and with me I bring... the Barry M Silk collection! At last I hear you cry. I have owned these polishes since the release day but just not got to them yet, Thats about to change...
First up is Meadow.
So firstly let me apologise for how blue these pictures look now I've uploaded them to my blog. On my camera they looked green!
However lets not let that spoil the beauty of this collection... described as pastel polishes with a matte sheen, I was concerned they would look like the dreaded frost polishes but thankfully not.
These pretty pictures show two coats of Meadow on all nails except my ringer finger which is three thin coats of Pearl, also from the Silk collection.
Meadow definitely photographs as a blue green rather than a mint green but I love it none the less!
Close up of my cute accent nail that was designed especially to match the cute lids of the Silk collection :)
Meadow is a beautiful colour, perfectly opaque in two thin coats with a nice quick drying time. I did not suffer with any dragging or brush stroke marks and really enjoyed the pastel matte finish of this colour.
How do you like the look of this polish? Do you own any of the Silk collection? I would love to hear your thoughts below.

SO jealous! This looks absolutely stunning, your pictures are amazing! I love the finish to these polishes, I really really need to grab them! They just look so beautiful and soft :D I'm excited to see the next ones you post! xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Ithi :). I'm so surprised by how much I love the finish of these! Usually I'm all about the high gloss shine but there is something soft and delicate about these that just screams spring! xx
Deletelovely manicure <3
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you like it. Thank you for taking the time to comment :) xx
DeleteThat's such a gorgeous color, can't wait to see the rest. Such a shame when camera's change the colors, I had the same problem with a polish today. It's supposed to be a pastel mint but it keeps coming out bright blue.
ReplyDeleteI know.. So frustrating! Maybe it's something about the mint greens that both our cameras don't like :) xx
DeleteLovely picture, can't wait for the rest x
ReplyDeleteThank you Vicky. I'm hoping to post another one tonight :) xx
DeleteI love the silk finish of the polishes, they look great!
ReplyDeleteVery kind of you ;). I really like them a whole lot more than I thought I would. Very delicate looking.
DeleteSo pretty! I can't wait to see your swatches of the rest!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jamie. I'm hoping to show you a Truffle tonight and the rest early next week :) xx
DeleteVery soft and pretty - I know you said the colour isn't accurate, but it looks like a perfect manicure for a newborn as it is lol, baby blue and baby pink :) xx
ReplyDeleteThanks Maria :). Actually the colour looks ok now the post is live but when I viewed it on my laptop the polish looked really blue! xx
