Barielle - Brown Sparkles

Hello! Hello!

Here is another fascinating Barielle shade in Brown Sparkles, Collection unknown (lol). I think the name is deceiving in so far as it's not a creative name but a descriptive one, but either way it's a beautiful shade in it's own right. I was worried that it was going to be very streaky but it was not too bad so I was very pleased with that. There is lots of sparkle in the polish as you can see in the picture with flash but without flash or sunshine it just looks like a cool slick metallic but under tungsten light it looks like the most beautiful rose champagne color. The formula is a little on the thin side for me (but for some reason I find this consistent with metallic shades in general. Not too many complaints, it's just a beautiful polish! Enjoy!

Barielle - Gotta Have Fate

Hello! Hello!

This is a nice Barielle shade, very creamy and quite opaque. This was only two coats and I could still see through the polish. It's described on the Barielle site as a creamy coral however I just don't see it. To me it look a lot more like red based orange (if such a color is possible). It looks more orange than red to me so I just don't see the coral at all. Hope you like! 

P.S. I don't know what happening with either my browser or blogger because all my pictures are originally facing one way and once I upload them they turn 'magically' cause I want them all to face in one direction but it just ain't happening. If anyone know how to fix that please let me know in the commets, I'd really apreaciate it!

Barielle - Blossom

Hello! Hello!

I've got a BEAUTIFUL color today. It's a very hard color to describe as it is to photograph but I did my best. The Barielle website describes it as a Peach color, whereas I feel that it's an almost neon peachy pink and if you're lucky in the right light it will look orange. The Barielle site claims that this is an opaque color but I got to disagree. It was a little streaky going on and I can see through the polish on to my finger on the same spot in [almost] every finger [about a millimeter and a half between the white and middle of the nail]. Knowing that I have 2 fairly thick coats of polish on and still being able to see through is one of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to polish but I still love Blossom because it's such a unique color and it's so beautiful that I can't hold a little sheerness against it.

P.S. Forgive the unevenness of my nails, they have been peeling and breaking on me a lot lately and I think it's because of the filing so I am trying an experiment and not filing my nails for a month to see if there's any improvement.

Barielle - U-Concrete-Me

Hello! Hello!

Here is a wonderful grey from Barielle. I own a couple different greys from OPI and I am sorry to say that by far I prefer this one. Because it's a grey it's a little bit of a difficult color to capture 'on film' so to speak, but very beautiful nonetheless. I actually wore this for a full week, which for me is rare.
