Feel Like A Mermaid!

So Barry M (my all time fav highstreet Nail Polish) has brought out a beautiful, Aquarium collection. With two tone polishes, and perfect glitter polish!

The tones of teals, blues, golds, pinks are just to perfect for words. If you're looking for a cool alternative this Spring for your nails, check out the Aquarium collection.

I treated myself to two polishes from the collection, as I couldn't resist the 3 for 2 offer currently on Barry M cosmetics in Superdrug. (slaps wrist) I just cannot resist a good bargain.


The little fish-like scale design on the neck of the bottle adds a cute little detail to the collection. I picked these two colours, a two tone teal/silver Nail Paint and a similar coloured Glitter polish. 

Layer these two on top of each other, and start feeling like a Mermaid. 

Colours from left to right :
Aquarium - Pacific, Aquarium - Mermaid.

Mermaid Magic

Inspired by the new Aquatics range by Barry M I decided to have a go at creating a mermaid look nail art design myself.

Simply grab a mid blue colour as a base - here I use Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Blueberry add a triangle of minty teal green from the cuticle with the end of the triangle stopping mid nail. Here I used Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Greenberry then add a golden shimmer preferably with iridescent glitter chunks in the polish like my Maybelline Colour Show Brocades in Knitted Gold.

Add the glitter polish until the blue and green look faded together and the design looks cohesive. And enjoy your Mermaid style nails!
