Purple Gerry

Today I have two polishes from brands I've never used before.  First up is Barry M Vivid Purple.  I ordered this from Harlow & Co recently and I was so impressed with the formula, I want to go back and order more.  You see one coat below (one coat!)  It went on like a dream, was easy to control and had a perfect luster.

Then I added Shimmer Gerry over top.  This is a glitter bomb that applies easily and it is such a stunner of a polish.  I love it!  I got tons of compliments on this manicure.

Because it is so hard to capture purple on film, the color you see is slightly less purple than it was in real life.

Vivid Purple alone:

Shimmer Gerry, WOW.  That's all I can say.  This was gifted to me in a swap I was part of and again, I need to buy up all of the Shimmer polishes!


Look at this awesome!!!  Buy all of the Shimmers!


Barry M polishes can be purchased from Harlow & Co.  Shimmer polishes can be purchased through her Etsy Store.

    1. I was amazed by the quality. I'm not sure who else other than Harlow carries them (and even then you have to wait forever b/c Canadian shipping blows), but you need them!

    1. I know, every blog post I've seen of Shimmer is stunning. I think they really know glitters well and have a knack for combining them.

  3. That purple is gorgeous. The glitter's really pretty, too, but the purple... I keep scrolling back up to stare, lol. ;)

    1. It was really a stunner. I was very impressed with the quality as well, because I think Barry M is sort of a "drug store" brand in the UK (I could be wrong)
