Wanna press your pigments and loose shadows?


Ummm, well I really wanted to as well, I thought it would be very convenient to have all of my Barry M loose shadows pressed into a MAC Palette so that they are easier and more convenient to use.
So I went through the effort of importing empty pans and magnets from a seller in USA and pressed each shadow and I was really happy.
Unfortunately all shadows are weaker in this type of cheap magnet held palette anyway.
but loose powders hand pressed are even weaker and can smash with each tiny little knock.

 The below palette managed to protect its contents more -maybe because its lighter in weight? or maybe because it was used less?
The top palette holds my favourite colours.
Ohh btw pressing can effect the shade of the pigments they may get prettier or worsten but either way their can be a difference.


I hope you found this helpful

Nail Paints by Barry M





If you like to play with nail colour definitely check these out.
at about £3 for a 10ml bottle
application is quite straight forward with a decent quality brush
the formula is fab -nice thick colour that does not streak when applied with some care.
available in a huge range of colours.
takes about as long to dry as other high end brands such as OPI and Nails inc
(maybe one day I will share my collection with you?)
Available on the high street at Boots and Superdrug
and on their own website (just google barrym)

I was in the mood to play with glitter and deep metallic colours so I thought it better to purchase BarryM nail paints rather than OPI or Nails inc as I knew these are not everyday colour.
I just wanted to have abit of fun.
