I just had to tell you guys about the new 5 colours added to the Gelly Nail Paint line! As you may already know, I'm obsessed with them. The new colours came out a while ago but when I went into Boots to buy them all (obviously) they only had one colour in, Guava. But thanks to Leeds Bradford International Airport for their Superdrug in Departures, I managed to snag the other four colours! So here they are, soooo preeeettttttyyyyyyyy... (I said it like Natalie Portman when she was in the Black Swan and her mum just bought her that cake for getting the role as Swan Queen, god I love that film! Why do I always use brackets to digress...)
from left to right - Blue Grape, Guava, Key Lime, Mango and Passion Fruit


An electric blue shade - Blue Grape 

A camo/lime green shade - Key Lime

A soft bright orange shade - Mango

A minty teal shade - Guava 

A deep bright pink - Passion Fruit



These irresistible summer shades are a must to add to my collection (a daunting  104, oopsies). I'm not reviewing them seen as I've already done it here, and they haven't changed they're just new colours so there'd be no point!

Barry M are well known for their Nail Paints, but in 2012 they released their Gelly edition, promising a hi-shine finish and long-lasting pigmented colour. I have tried many 'high-end' nail polish brands, from Nails Inc to Orly and I must say, this nail polish beats them all. I work in a hairdressers as a Saturday girl and I find that when I finish work, most of my nail polish has come off due to all the jobs my nails have to endure. I applied the nail polish on Thursday (a base coat, one coat of the Blueberry polish and No7 top coat) and it is still looking shiny and chip-free, even after an 8-hour shift yesterday. I purchased the Blueberry, Prickly Pear and Watermelon shades after I saw one of my favourite beauty vloggers rave about them, and as they were on 3 for 2 at £9 altogether, I thought it was worth a try and at £3 each they were a fraction of the price of what I would normally pay. I have received so many complements with people thinking I had a Shellac manicure, including the nail technician at work! Amazing product and I intend on buying all the colours!

                          


I love these polishes so much that I bought 13 of the colours - Lychee (cream/grey), Papaya (salmon pink), Satsuma (bright orange), Blood Orange (bright red), Pomegranate (raspberry pink), Grapefruit (bright pink), Dragonfruit (pale pink), Prickly Pear (lilac), Blueberry (pale blue), Greenberry (mint green), Watermelon (dark green), Blackberry (dark blue), Plum (dark purple).
