To be honest, I'm not impressed with these polishes at all. It's been a long time since I've had to give a polish a bad review but I think these deserve it.
These are about £2.79 from Boots, I think. (I don't know exactly as these were a birthday present, and the Superdrug website is plain stupid - for some reason, these aren't listed even though I know they stock them -.-). So up there with Barry M, price wise. The slightly higher end of the cheap spectrum, anyway.
The handle feels cheap and weak. It's also too small for my hands, which is hard to do as I have quite small hands anyway. The formula bubbled really easily and I had to take the whole thing off and begin application again.
I usually don't mention the brush in my reviews, but this one was a very square shape and really weak and flimsy. It felt like there weren't enough bristles in the brush and it seemed to be a tad too short.
I do like the colour, though. It's a bright orange toned red that probably has a million lipstick dupes you could wear it with, so if you like coordinating your lipstick with your nail polish by all means, go ahead.
I'm just not impressed. I hear good things about Collection 2000's glitter eyeliners, for example, all over the place and many of their products seem to be well loved so this is just a bit of a disappointment really.

Barry M Swatch
Hey! The gorgeous Raspberry colour by Barry M is what I was going to talk about today. As you guys may have guessed, I'm a total Barry M lover (even though I don't have that many colours, haha, I'm saving for more) because you get very good quality and a large colour range for only £2.95, and I've heard good things about their Dazzle Dusts. Anyway, have a look.
This was the old bottle so inside is 13ml of product, which isn't bad. Nowadays, though, they've reduced it to 10ml. Which is still more than Miss Sporty which gives you a miserly 7ml.
By the way, that Boots Hot Pink was a complete PITA to remove. Ach.
