Let me tell you a secret. I never used to like mushrooms. Seriously, I could not be in the same room as one, let alone give them plate-room. I have a friend who suffers from the same thing, except whereas I really didn’t like
the taste, she can’t eat them as she thinks that the underside of a mushroom looks like a set of eyelashes. Gross!
Any way, something must have happened to my tastebuds as now I just can’t get enough. My husband started inserting mushrooms into our dinners and I couldn’t be bothered to complain any more so I ended up eating them. And discovering that actually, they are rather tasty. Didn’t stop 99% (or so it felt at the time) of our wedding guests complaining when they found out that our meal was steak with mushrooms. Seems they’re still a bit contraversial.
This nail varnish is not controversial though. It’s quite simply amazing. I was quite late to it, and I know its been raved about on a number of blogs prior to this one, but it does no harm at all to remind you of just how good it is. This could have been one coat, but I did two just for maximum opacity.
This is hands-down the best formula I have ever tried from Barry M. It flowed perfectly with zero pooling, dragging or problems. I actually ended up doing one coat and getting distracted with something before going back to do the second and my topcoat, and I found that the first coat I applied was dry in about five minutes. Perfect.
Better yet, I can barely tell the difference between this, and last year’s hot property Chanel Particuliere. Except that Particuliere cost £19 and chipped like a bitch. Barry M costs under £3.00 and wears like iron. It’s a no-brainer
as far as I am concerned – I’d rather have six bottles of the Barry M that, in my opinion, outperforms the Chanel in every possible way.
So there we have it. Are you a fan of this shade? And tell me, are there any foods that you used to hate that you now love to eat?
