Barry M Moisturising Lip Paint - shade 161

Hi guys. You will probably already know that I'm a massive fan of Barry M, and also a bit of a lipstick addict. Put those two things together and you get quite the dangerous cocktail, especially when Barry M have brought out a reworked formula for their Lip Paints which is allegedly more moisturising..

The packaging for the Moisturising Lip Paints is bright fuschia, but otherwise exactly the same as the usual black Barry M Lip Paints.. I picked up shade 161, a beautiful coral shade. 

This was the stand out shade of the range for me, it just seemed so perfect for Spring and such a pretty coral pink shade! I was so excited to try it for the first time, I popped it on as soon as I got home! It's quite difficult to apply and does drag on the lips, but if you persevere you can get a really good coverage. I imagine this is quite difficult to apply with a lip brush.

Here's the colour on my lips - I love it and have been wearing it on the weekends ever since I bought it! It lasts for hours without fading, doesn't dry out my lips in the slightest (and I have quite dry lips naturally) and doesn't bleed. It's genuinely a winner for me, and I'm quite keen to try some of the other shades! For the price this is by far the best value for money lipstick I've come across in a while.

Barry M Moisturising Lip Paints are £4.49 available from Superdrug online (HERE) or in store from Boots or Superdrug.

Have you tried the Barry M Moisturising Lip Paints yet? Which shade is your favourite?

Combined Haul - Barry M & Topshop Nails

Hi everyone. So today is a Tuesday and that means it should be time for a Tuesday Tales post, however I had real troubles uploading the photos for the post I had planned so it will have to be postponed until next week I'm afraid! Instead please enjoy this haul post that I've brought forward a couple of days!

On my lunch break a few weeks ago, I could not resist the unexplainable urge to hop on a tube and head to Oxford Street for some extreme impulse shopping.. I'd seen that Topshop Nails polishes were on two for £8 and I knew I had to have at least a couple!

I ended up grabbing these beauties - I actually got two of the blue polish and gave one to a friend as a gift. It's such a beautiful colour, I think it may be a Nails Inc Baker Street dupe!

Left > right Varsity, Tingle and Mannequin. They are usually £5 each but as I said I bought them on offer, 2 for £8. My previous experience with Topshop Nails isn't great but I'm hoping it will be better this time around! You can buy these polishes from Topshop in store or online HERE.

I then tottered down to Boots to indulge in some serious Barry M loving - lucky for me I was just before the end of the 3 for the price of 2 make up event.

I treated myself to two Gelly Hi Shine polishes in Papaya and Prickly Pear, and one of the new(ish) Moisturising Lip Paints in shade 161. I am mega excited to try out this lip colour as it looked like the perfect Spring shade when I swatched it in store! The Gelly Hi Shine polishes are £3.99 available direct from Barry M HERE or buy them from Boots in store or online HERE. The Lip Paint is £4.49 again available from Barry M online HERE or in store from Boots.

Have you had any impulse buys recently? What do you think of my lunchtime purchases?
