<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The blogger world has gone mad for Instant Nail Effects, it is the cheapest, simplest way of doing nail art!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">But don't just listen to me tell you how amazing it is, here are some reviews on it:</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.vexinthecity.com/2010/10/you-need-this-barry-m-instant-nail.html">http://www.vexinthecity.com/2010/10/you-need-this-barry-m-instant-nail.html</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.donotrefreeze.com/2010/10/finally-instant-nail-effects.html">http://www.donotrefreeze.com/2010/10/finally-instant-nail-effects.html </a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="http://www.facebook.com/notes/beauty-begins-blog/barry-m-dusky-mauve-and-instant-nail-effects/485078895341">http://www.facebook.com/notes/beauty-begins-blog/barry-m-dusky-mauve-and-instant-nail-effects/485078895341</a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

And despite fluffing her lines not once, but twice, the Madonna-inspired singer made it into the final 12. But while Katie’s quirky retro style might not be for everyone, here's how to create a much more toned down, wearable version of her make-up.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">For a start, ditch the humongous circus-like false lashes - who knows how Katie got through the day at the judges’ houses with those unsightly things weighing her down. Instead, opt for a thickening mascara like our 3 in 1 to lengthen, add volume and separate the lashes. Elsewhere, Katie keeps her eye make-up pretty simple, with neutral eye shadows and well groomed eyebrows.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">Katie opts for a matte foundation finish with a subtle rosy blush. Try a light to medium coverage foundation or a tinted moisturiser and sweep a smidgen of our Pink Orchard onto the apples of your cheeks.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">The lips tend to be the focal point of Katie’s look (apart from the aforementioned lashes, of course) and at the judges' houses, she went for a girly baby pink shade. A far cry from the bright orange/red she went for on her first audition, the pale pink complemented Katie’s complexion and was well in line with the 60s little white dress look she sported. Achieve a similar look with our lip paint in Sheer Pink.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">Finally, add a dramatic bow or hair piece to a quiffed barnet, and a coat or two of black nail polish and you’re ready to go!<br />

First up, hip hop princess, Cher Lloyd - there’s no mistaking the 16-year-old singer’s distinctive look. And while we may not all want to rush out and purchase a pair of baggy ghetto pants or sky-high boots, there are tons of make up junkies who’d happily sport Cher’s heavy smokey eyes and dramatic black brows.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">Here’s how to do it: get hold of a black or dark brown kohl eyeliner and fill in the brows, accentuating the arches by building up colour gradually. Or soft kohl pencil in black is a mere snip at just £2.95. If you’re blessed with thicker, more defined brows, use a thin shadow brush and a dark eyeshadow shade to gently fill them in.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">Create Cher’s stunning smokey eyes by blending a dark eyeliner under the waterline and in the inner corners of the eyes our Super Soft Eyes Crayons are great for creating a smudgy, smoky effect. If you prefer to use a liquid eyeliner, our black will do the trick.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">For the eyeshadow, blend a dark shade like Dazzle Dust in Petrol Black on the lid. For a much more wearable daytime look, you can tone it down with Charcoal or even a navy blue shade.</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />
</div><div class="MsoPlainText">On the cheeks, Cher’s rosy glow is down to a well chosen blush like our Pink Orchid, at £4.50. Finally - the lips! Never mind those who say dramatic eyes should be worn with neutral lips - and vice versa. Cher is usually seen wearing a coral/pink, perfectly suited to her pale skin tone which you can get with our Peachy Pink Lip Paint. And you’re done!</div><div class="MsoPlainText"><br />

You will start to see these in Superdrug now but if you can't get hold of them then they are always available on our <a href="http://www.barrym.com/products/product.asp?id=154">website</a>.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br />
Personally I am loving Golden Goddess which is the first one, it makes creating a bronzed smokey look for summer so easy. And the pink and brown one, called Delicious Diva, gives a similar look but puts a pink twist on it for that extra girliness - how can you go wrong!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/TGKFRqsqOgI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/pilH0XCHRC8/s1600/TES7+029+closed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/TGKFRqsqOgI/AAAAAAAAAIQ/pilH0XCHRC8/s320/TES7+029+closed.jpg" /></a></div>You get an applicator in the pallet, with a brush and a sponge end. Personally I always prefer to use my own brushes but they are great to use for touching up when I am out.<br />

<br />
Summer's mere weeks away and we'll soon be digging out our bikinis and passports in search of some much-needed sun.<br />
<br />
Make sure you have everything you need for a day on the beach by following Barry M's handy guide. Here's our top handbag essentials to take you from beach to bar.<br />
<br />
<b>* Lip service</b><br />
Keep lips soft, smooth and kissably soft in time for that beach holiday romance this summer. Smooth a generous slick of Barry M's Vitamin E and peppermint oil lip balm before applying your usual lippy. Choose from cherry or strawberry scented lip balm and finish with a quick application of Barry M's peachy pink lip paint to complement your golden tan. Pale faced beauties can opt for Barry M's Pale Pink Sparkle or Palest Lavender to set off a porcelain English rose complexion.<br />
<br />
<b>*Want tasty beach-ready tootsies?</b><br />
I scream, you scream, we all scream for Barry M's new Ice Cream nail paints. And nothing says summer quite like ice cream! With any one of Barry M's four tasty Ice Cream nail paints, you'll have cutesy, girly hands or tootsies in no time. Choose from Strawberry, Berry, Lemon or Blueberry ice cream-inspired nail paints - yum! Barry M's lilac (Berry Ice Cream) shade has been disappearing off shop shelves faster than you can say strawberry sauce and chocolate sprinkles - it really is that delicious.<br />
<b><br />
* Dazzle day or night</b><br />
Instantly jazz up your daytime beach make-up with Barry M's famous Dazzle Dust. Bronzed babes can enhance their summer tans with a subtle dusting of Barry M's Burnt Orange eyeshadow combined with Marigold or Bronze. Brilliant brunettes can go all out and embrace vibrant tropical inspired shades with a summery cocktail of colours. Opt for Parrot Green, Kingfisher or Aqua Gold Dazzle Dusts for a stunning beach-ready look.<br />
<br />
And that's it - all that's left do do now is pack those sunnies and sun cream and board the plane!

np307 is Lemon Ice Cream<br />

Don't forget our Mint Green from last year which is the perfect compliment to this range and a cheap way to copy Chanel's infamous Jade. <br />
<br />
Go get yours now, I will defintiely be sporting the lilac, apparently it is going to be huge this summer and I love to follow a trend! Sad I know! But why not get all of them at only £2.95 each! Here is a clearer (but nowhere near as fun!) picture of the range:<br />

I know, I was one of those before I started working here - hopefully I have learnt something!</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/S4zgEEKjGPI/AAAAAAAAAFg/GDKq7vmYBQ4/s1600-h/GLASS.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; cssfloat: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" kt="true" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/S4zgEEKjGPI/AAAAAAAAAFg/GDKq7vmYBQ4/s320/GLASS.jpg" /></a>So we have partnered with our friends at The Glass Slipper to do a competition for you to win a FREE make-up lesson for you and 3 friends. It is a brilliant package! Basically, an expert make-up artist from The Glass Slipper will visit you and advise on how to apply the best Barry M make-up to suit your colouring. Check out more info on The Glass Slipper and exclusive discounts they are offering Barry M customers: <a href="http://www.barrym.com/lookz/the-glass-slipper.asp">http://www.barrym.com/lookz/the-glass-slipper.asp</a> </div><br />
Not only that, you will each get a free Barry M make-up kit worth £50 to recreate those fabulous looks you have been shown! This prize is seriously amazing - it's worth £500!!!<br />
<br />
So enter now on our website, it's just a simple multiple choice question: <a href="http://www.barrym.com/fun/competition.asp">http://www.barrym.com/fun/competition.asp</a> <br />

Also, we are in the process of creating simple video tutorials of how to use all of our products which we will put on the website. I learnt a lot just from editing them!

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/S0sPzl87HBI/AAAAAAAAAEg/JjZghqd-pU8/s1600-h/Lip+Lacquer+Groups.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; cssfloat: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/S0sPzl87HBI/AAAAAAAAAEg/JjZghqd-pU8/s320/Lip+Lacquer+Groups.jpg" /></a><br />
</div>So, here is the first new product of the year and I can't get across how excited I am to tell you about these!<br />
<br />
These are our new Lip Lacquer Crayons. Literally a jumbo sized crayon to apply directly to your lips. They are so fun and glide on so smoothly. The colour is so intense and glossy - hence the name lacquer. <br />
<br />
I have done a swatch on my arm so you can see what the colours are like. Honestly amazing for nights out, esp because they are so easy to reapply. Although I wear Ballet Pink in the day - the advantages of my job is I have been testing them and finding my favourite shades for a while now!<br />
<br />
The colours are:<br />
1 - Scarlett Red<br />
2 - Cherry Red<br />
3 - Mandarin<br />
4 - Party Pink<br />
5 - Ballet Pink<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/S0sTwSOxZsI/AAAAAAAAAEo/BrJwcJOHez8/s1600-h/Lip+Lacquer+swatch+-+no+flash.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" ps="true" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/S0sTwSOxZsI/AAAAAAAAAEo/BrJwcJOHez8/s320/Lip+Lacquer+swatch+-+no+flash.jpg" /></a><br />

</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">I do have an iPhone, and as you all know, I'm not that experienced at applying make-up but want to learn to be better so I use this App all the time. It has loads of 60 second video tutorials on how to create a certain look on your eyes. There are loads of styles on there, all categorised by the type of look, eg celebrity, clubbing, bollywood etc. <br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Some of the looks are crazy and fun to play around with but I like some of the more day-to-day looks. Some of them are even filmed being done on my eye which is weird when I watch the make-up being put on my own eye in the video and there I am trying to recreate it!! <br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">We have also just added nail art lookz, which give you ideas for some fun designs that are easy to recreate on your nails. There are some fab festive ones worth checking out!<br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><br />
</div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">We have got a few of the looks on our website so you can get a taster but we add about 4 a month to our App. <a href="http://www.barrym.com/lookz/iphone-app/">http://www.barrym.com/lookz/iphone-app/</a> <br />

</div>Hope you are all well and not to weather beaten by this awful rain (i'd advise to start work on your ark!).<br />
<br />
Well, brace yourselves for this one....We all know that bold lips have been a key trend this year but now blue and green are set to be the latest colours to adorn your lips, so when Barry M say we are the most colourful name in cosmetics, we mean it! How could we refuse to bow to fashion and make up these two little beauties? We couldn't so, Lip Paint 148 (Blue) and Lip Paint 149 (green) were born!<br />
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/SxZkqK-McJI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/oGrgR_fQzPY/s1600-h/greenlips.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/SxZkqK-McJI/AAAAAAAAAEQ/oGrgR_fQzPY/s320/greenlips.jpg" /></a><br />
So, whats the verdict? True blues as seen on Prada or are you keen on green aka Paul Smith? Love it or hate it, its on the catwalks and they know their business! If you want to give it a go, they are now in stock and on our <a href="http://www.barrym.com/products/product.asp?id=82">website</a> for a bargainous £4.25!<br />

My sister moved to Canada this year so I need to be really organised and have her pressies posted in about a week to make sure they get there on time! Got to admit I do like Christmas shopping (who doesn't love shopping??) so I don't mind having a legitimate excuse to start early, I just need to focus on buying stuff for other people and not myself!<br />
<br />
My lovely friends have already started dropping hints about wanting Barry M make-up as their presents which is great because I love going down to the warehouse, with it's rows and rows of colourful, glittery products, it is like being in the best, girliest sweet shop ever! The guys who work down there do not appreciate how lucky they are!!<br />
<br />
So what will I get them?? Well some of them read this blog so I can't give too much away, but, hypothetically speaking, if I was a great friend I would get them our Get the Look gift sets. Firstly because it is such a good deal to get 3 products for £9.95, secondly because it looks fab in a great gift box and thirdly because it comes with instructions on how to apply the make-up which might stop them asking me for a while!<br />
<br />
There is a pink set (incl 3 Dazzle Dusts and an eyeshadow brush) and a green set (incl 2 Dazzle Dusts and a Glitter Liquid Eyeliner). Both contain limited edition colours which we will never sell separately so get yours quickly (last year's sold before Christmas)! <a href="http://www.barrym.com/products/product.asp?id=145">Click here to see them on our website.</a><br />
<br />
Now I just need to decide what to get my house mate James?! Boys are so much more difficult and he hasn't quite caught onto the guyliner trend yet!Barry M Cosmeticshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17634675340554110077noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7150336698285258272.post-54425017441051829242009-11-03T10:47:00.002+00:002009-11-03T11:37:37.016+00:00New Product Update - Glitter Lashes<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/SvAJ4KYSZeI/AAAAAAAAADU/rwJZqM-wpCM/s1600-h/Glitter+Lashes+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/SvAJ4KYSZeI/AAAAAAAAADU/rwJZqM-wpCM/s320/Glitter+Lashes+2.jpg" /></a>Hey everyone,<br />
<br />
Hope everyone had a good halloween!<br />
<br />
Well, here at Barry M towers we have been churning out the glitter lately because, lets face it, everything looks that little bit prettier when it sparkles right?! And why not apply this theory to your lashes giving you extra oomph when you flutter them at any lucky admirer! If this sounds up your street then Glitter Lashes is the answer to your prayers! A glittery top coat for lashes, it is designed to go on top of your mascara and is so easy to apply in a simple twist brush pen (so you don't end up clumping your lashes in gel before you get to the good stuff - the glitter!). It comes in six colours - Gold, Silver, Blue, Green, Pink and Purple, costs £4.95 and is out in your local Boots and Superdrug now! Alternatively you can buy online on our website <a href="http://www.barrym.com/products/product.asp?id=146">here</a>. <br />
<br />
So what do we think? I have used the purple in my picture but I am equally in love with the silver and can't wait to wear the gold at the weekend! Are you a bit of a magpie when it comes to make up or do you prefer the more subtle look? Either way you can't deny that this will definately allow your eyes to do the talking!<br />

So the girls at HQ thought we would do a regular feature where we swatch requested shades. This week on Facebook and Twitter these were the ones you wanted to see, so...<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/Sumxykyit-I/AAAAAAAAADE/K7IvGskZsRE/s1600-h/DD_29oct.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_nph3a2UfZVs/Sumxykyit-I/AAAAAAAAADE/K7IvGskZsRE/s320/DD_29oct.jpg" vr="true" /></a><br />
</div><div class="" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;">Mushroom is a lovely shimmery colour that could be suitable day or night - I have still got it on now and will be wearing it on my date tonight - woohoo!<br />
</div><div class="" style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Block Blue is very matt but such a vibrant colour, it really stands out but doesn't look tacky! I would probably only wear it on a night out or to a party though.<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Petrol Black - the picture speaks for itself! So good we had to show it on Emily's eye open and closed. It is a sort of black colour with glittery bits of turquoise, it is everyone here's favourite!<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Neon Pink was tried on by Marlene, again it is quite matt but not completely and VERY vibrant - the pic doesn't do it justice. This looks great on darker skin tones but how can you go wrong with pink?!<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Silvery Black is great for a smoky eye look and worn all over like Emily has, it has got a great shimmer but not too much. And looks great on just about every skin tone, what more could you want?!<br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Hope you liked this, write in the comments what Dazzle Dusts you want us to swatch next.<br />

Me, Emily and Joanna worked at Salon International at the Excel, here is a pic of us setting up our stand - it looked great! Sorry the pic is a bit blurry - it was ridiculously early on a Saturday morning!!<br />
<br />
The stand was packed, we literally didnt have time to have a break! But it was great to meet lots of customers and see what they were buying and hear really great comments about how much they love Barry M. And Barry himself was there but I;m not sure if people realised it was him!<br />
<br />
Not sure if you are all thinking about Halloween yet but MakeupAdikt has created a tutorial on YouTube for a Twilight Vampire or Witch look that you could easily recreate: <a href="http://www.youtube.com/ilovebarrym">http://www.youtube.com/ilovebarrym</a><br />
<br />
Anyway got to get back to my painting my nails - the chemist has just come up with her first ideas for our new Spring colours!! Amazing!!Barry M Cosmeticshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17634675340554110077noreply@blogger.com5
