Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Blackberry

I got this polish for Christmas from a lovely friend, and I'm really impressed with it! It's a Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine polish - supposedly they're very shiny without topcoat. It's true, they are very shiny, but I can't do without topcoat...

Please excuse my glittery cuticles! I'm dangerously low on nail polish remover. Anyway, this is two coats of the Barry M polish, over Essie basecoat, with Seche Vite topcoat.

I've begun to tire of my Seche Vite thickening so ridiculously, though. I have got Seche Restore, but it's just not the same. What do you all recommend for a high shine, quick dry topcoat that doesn't go all gungy in the bottle?


Thanks for reading!

Nails Inc Chalk Farm!

Tonight's nails are another manicure with one of my favourite colours - I need some new polishes!

What I used:

• Sally Hansen Nailgrowth Miracle
• Nails Inc Chalk Farm (2 coats)
• Konad Special Pink Polish and plate M59
• Seche Vite topcoat (Wahooo! I have new Seche!!)

As well as getting new Seche Vite, I also got a bottle of Seche Restore - I've got two old bottles of Seche that have gone thick - you know, I don't think I ever get to use the last third because of this. I used about 10 drops of the Restore on one of them, and rolled the bottle for a while, and it seems to have brought it back! Good stuff. I'll let you know when I try it out.
