Superdrug have a couple of the Barry M textures online now.....

Just sems to be the yellow and pink at the mo, £3.99 each but they're not 3 for 2. Still free delivery though, but I think I'm going to hold out for the blue one!

(Not technically a grabbit, but I know some of you were very keen to get hold of them).
There doesn't seem to be a lot of info on these but I found this:

I'd pick the crap out of those

I've been using the liquid sands as lip exfoliators

Shame they aren't on 3 for 2!

Shame they're only doing pastels! I much prefer darks - can't be doing with anything too girlie

It took me a few minutes to work that out, i thought you were putting the polish on your lips

I'm more excited to get my grubby mitts on the gellys than the textured cos I can make textured polish myself, but I bet I succumb by the end of the week and buy them!

Trouble is, if I thought it would make me look gorgeous I probably would!!!!!

I find it veeeerrry relaaaaaxing to rub the sands on my nail across my lips, and it reminded me of the lipscuff from Body Shop!

I really dont like the colours of those or the new gellys as they are just too pale for me and I dont really do pastels.

They are quite vibrant on the nail but not that great at stamping, the previous batch seemed better.
Had a failed mani earlier so had to change it again

I did post it on my blog thread, but 17 have released some of these too, and the colours are more suited I think. I have got the Barry M ones and I don't think I like them as much, the colours are too girly with the effect I think.

Thanks Sossidge, I agree that these create a better overall effect - the black in particular. Off to the town at the weekend then.......sigh...

I quite like 17 blue - but agreed how would you use these for nail art...that needs some thought.

The 17 ones are much more like it! Might get just one...

Studs or diamantes or skulls like the over priced nails inc

I think I actually prefer the Barry M pastel colours just because it is an unexpected combination with the effect.

You could make just paint on a heart or something in the textured polish, or do half moons of a normal polish with the textured one over the rest of the nail?

All four textured polish colours are now online on 2 for £6 with free delivery. I must admit I'm tempted!

I caved and bought two if the Gellys and one textured one! I'm glad I did but now I want the other shades!

I went into Superdrug today and bought Ridley Road and Atlantic Road.

I got Ridley Road too, it's so pretty!

Yes, I think it looks a bit like China Glaze For Audrey - reminds me of the Tiffany boxes.

Me too! I have so many ideas how to use it for nail art!

I bought the pink and green yesterday. I don't know why I did it...I didn't like the look of them from swatches, and I think they're even uglier in real life lol. Oh well! More free nail polish for my sister.
