Allo
polish Pals!
How
are we all doing? How is your week going? I really intended to post
before today but there where just things popping up all over the
place, there are some events taking place in my personal life which
are exciting, I'll tell you about that when I know more :) Today I
have a swatch and review of Barry M's 'Atlantic Road' to show you
which is a textured polish!
Please excuse the weird colouring on my fingers... I am having a hate/hate relationship with some new remover. |
Colour
~ Atlantic Road is a
pale powdery turquoise which can almost look sky blue in certain
light. The texture of this polish adds the illusion of shimmer which
helps lighten its appearance. I'm undecided as to whether or not I
like the colour combination mixed with the texture.
Application
~ It applies as an
easy, fairly watery liquid. There are really no issues with
application although I will say that you need to fully allow it to
dry because otherwise the textured effect will take much longer to
appear. Dry time is pretty impressive when applying thin coats.
Texture ~ Just
like Station Road this polish also has the same silky but grainy
texture when applying
and
dries into a typical sandy textured finish.
★★★/5 Even though I love blues I am just not as keen on this polish as I was about Station Road. I like the colour, I like the texture... but do I like the two combined? Maybe its just my skin tone (I find it brings out any redness I may have going on) but I find something quite unflattering when wearing this which is a real shame. Of course if you have nothing similar in your collection then this may suit you well; I have nothing bad to say but I find little to get excited about, unlike Barry M's other textured polishes.
Do you like this colour
with the texture? Have you tried any of the Barry M textured polishes
yet? Tomorrow's post is going to be slightly
different, if your a fan of purple polishes stop by!
Have a great day!
Love

Glad you like it, Bubica! I guess it is quite unusual for this shade to be a texture also, I think thats why I like Barry M's textured yellow so much! Thank you for being so sweet! <3 xx
