L'Oreal Confettis Top Coat had been on my wishlist for ages, and just when I finally reconcilled myself to the nail polish not being avaliable in my country, I spotted it at a tiny drugstore next to my uni! I almost screamed with happiness when I saw it! It's true. You can ask my friend who was with me. I'm sure this top coat will be my faithful companion for the next few months. It looks so cute with pastels! This time, I put it on top of Barry M's Prickly Pear. You can see a detailed review of  the 'Prickly Pear' nail polish here. 

P.S. Who else managed to pick up this gorgeous top coat?

Today I'm here to show you my first Barry M nail polish. When I was in London, the only nail polishes on my mind were the Essie ones, but when I saw the Barry M stand, I couldn't resist getting a couple of their gellys as well. Prickly Pear is the first shade that caught my attention. I have to admit, I do have a soft spot for pastel nail polishes. Especially for the turqoise and lilac ones. 

I already know that Prickly Pear will be my go-to spring shade. Apart from the colour being totally gorgeous, it is also very glossy or gel-like, just like the bottle says. There is definitely no need to apply a top coat to make them look shinier, but I still use it for the sake of proloning the wear and making the polish dry quicker. To get the Prickly Pear opaque, I applied two coats. The application was great and not streaky at all, which doesn't often happen with pastel nail polishes, so I'm very impressed. The only thing I don't like is the wand. I prefer them big (no sexual connotation intended), but the Barry M ones are unfortunately quite tiny.
