And if I could find such a thing as a black jelly, I would jelly sandwich my very own Facets of Fuchsia with it to make it closer to how I wanted FoF to be. (or maybe jelly sandwich it with FoF anyway, hmmmmm)<br /><br />What other colours were in the Retro ones? I saw the display in the airport but didn't have chance to look. (I'm trying to replace an ancient Bourjois metallic blue that was the exact colour & effect of Christmas ribbons, but it seems impossible - Bleu Magnetique fwiw)Lorrainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12859801323932242600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284518741560285552.post-23288485801652479302012-06-26T20:12:41.972+01:002012-06-26T20:12:41.972+01:00I agree, their cremes are absolutely superb, such ...I agree, their cremes are absolutely superb, such rich colour and so smooth, and last so well too. And bargain cheap!<br /><br />This glitter was pretty standard removal - quite gritty and annoying. <br /><br />I don't think Barry M glitters are as good as their cremes, the ones I've tried so far are a bit disappointing on the nail compared to the bottle (apart from Once Upon a Time, which is amazing!)Elanorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09776452620778173057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284518741560285552.post-64411553396965574942012-06-26T18:59:14.467+01:002012-06-26T18:59:14.467+01:00I never had any Barry M polishes until last month ...I never had any Barry M polishes until last month but I think they are fast becoming my favourite brand. Their cremes are so creamy! I recently bought the gold foil from the luxe effects and its just lovely!<br /><br />I've been eyeing up some of their glitter polishes as well, the only thing that puts me off is how awkward glitters are to remove!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1284518741560285552.post-34282501885248104262012-06-26T17:56:47.989+01:002012-06-26T17:56:47.989+01:00I suspect the only 'retro' thing really is...I suspect the only 'retro' thing really is the packaging. And the adverts, that are all 80s style. Barry M is apparently 30 this year! I got red, it looks like a shiny metallic.

Not silly are they! <br /><br />I want to get my hands on that green glitter though.Allie Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02012341511058372451noreply@blogger.com
