Barry MCosmetics Gelly Hi Shine Gel Nail Paint, Shade Green, Jalapeño

‘Jalapeño’ is a from the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine collection.The name ‘jalapeño’ is perfectly suited to this rich green shade of nail paint. It has a highly pigmented formula that applied like a dream and was fully opaque in just 1 coat. The wide flat, slightly curved edged brush meant that I was able to apply the polish quickly and precisely using less strokes and even with unsteady hands I was still able to achieve a neat result.It dried incredibly quickly and looked fab as it was - which is handy when I’m in a rush - but as my nails aren’t in perfect condition and they have quite prominent ridges, i applied a 2nd coat as I always prefer the appearance that this gives. The 2nd coat built the colour intensity, smoothed out the appearance of my ridges and gave a beautiful glossy hi shine result.I finished with a coat of  Green Origin topcoat & basecoat  and 3 days on I am just beginning to see a little wear on the tips of my nails. It may be worth noting that without the basecoat & topcoat, this nail paint did begin to chip within hours of application.Overall, for £3.99, I can’t fault this nail paint. From it’s gorgeous colour to the intensely shiny finish, it is just stunning. It is easy to see why Barry M’s affordable award winning quality products are still going strong after nearly 40 years. Best of all, they are a completely cruelty free company!👌🐇💘

Love this colour. Its such an inbetween colour, its not too dark and its not too light. And as always barry m is the best to apply (at home)

I’m not a fan of Barry M at all, however wanted a green nail polish in a hurry. Honestly can’t fault it

I’m love this brand of nail varnish. Long lasting, looks great and funky colours too. Great.

Amazing colour, wonderful cover- am absolutely chuffed to bits!!

I’m a pretty girl

Stained nails four weeks post halloween costume! Doesn't chip so early, slightly cautious about purchasing this product again in the future.

Love Barry m nail colours! Always good colour and easy to paint nails. Doesn’t chip so easily as others
