Barry M Lip Paint #154


Barry M is a brand that we all know and adore - particularly for their bright nail varnishes and their in-your-face eyeshadows. I personally have lusted after Barry M but have never purchased anything from them as I had always shopped at another brand. But I can now proudly say that I have lost my Barry M virginity as I received this for my birthday. 

Barry M added a number of new editions to their ever expanding cosmetics range, with fresh shades really for Spring/Summer 2012. Shade #154 is another new edition to their Lip Paint (Lipsticks really!) section and has been making it's way around the blogging world.
BARRY M LIP PAINT IN 154 "PALE NUDE" RRP: £4.49 FROM BOOTS, SUPERDRUG OR ONLINE.

The first thing that I noticed about this lipstick lip paint is how sturdy and elegant it looks in its matte black packaging which twists up to reveal the coloured bullet.

 Without flash.

Shade #154 "Pale Nude" is a peachy nude which is quite a warm shade depending on your skin tone. This doesn't really wash you out with it's peachy undertones so it mean's that you don't end up with foundation/concealer lips like what many nude lipsticks out there do.

This has quite a glossy finish to it which mean's that it's rather moisturising. However, I would definitely advice applying a lip balm before and/or after application as the staying power for this is verging on three hours.

I can definitely see myself wearing this when I don't want too much colour on my lips, so for my first Barry M lip product, it's a definite win!

Have you tried this or any of their other lip paints?

    1. Thanks for the heads up Sophia! I'll stay clear of their bright colours and stick with their nudes + light pinks xo

    1. I haven't tried any No17's lipsticks at all - only a mascara + bb cream. Will definitely swatch a few in Boots when I'm in there next! Same here - I love lipsticks atm too! xox
