Saying that, the smell isn't extra strong like some nail polishes, it's just normal smelling, and the smell goes as soon as it dries, as usual. Hi, I am a 25 year old graduate from the University of Southampton now living and working in live entertainment in London. The Super Mani and Iron Man treatments can be used on their own or as a base coat to help protect and improve your nails. Honestly, it's awesome, and to be honest even with two coats it makes an amazing base coat, but the lazy mo-fo in me loves it even more because if I decide half way through doing my nails I don't want to (can't be bothered to) finish off my nails, they still look great.

And if they were marketed as a base coat, or given a little extra pigmentation, I would be – instead – singing their praises.each , they are worth it just for the pretty soft matte effect alone, but if your nails aren't in the best state I'd definitely recommend checking them out. With an innovative blend of PHA and AHA to help promote nail plate regeneration, strengthening and repairing thin or weak nails. I’ve now started to use them as a base coat, applying a thin layer of this and then another layer of a more opaque nude nail polish on top. It’s a really interesting product that really does flatter, with a slightly translucent, semi-matte finish. I used it as a base coat and it sat very well under polish, whilst making my weather-beaten nails feel and look stronger.

I didn't find my nails were as dry or flaky as usual, and I didn't find myself wanting to peel more and more of it off as it flaked (as I usually do.This is the first ever range of nail treatments from Barry M and it features 4 lovely products, all designed to condition and strengthen nails which need a little TLC.

They are formulated to condition and strengthen weak nails whilst adding a hint of colour, and have be labelled as a "tinted moisturiser for the nails". They deliver a treatment that’s good for your nails, whilst also lightly disguising any flaws and adding a hint of complimentary colour – it’s safe to say I’m a fan!

The two shades available are Bashful (pink) and Birthday Suit (nude), and you can see me wearing Bashful here.

Bashful is slightly more opaque and bright, if either you're on the fairer side or that's just your preference, but I think I prefer Birthday Suit on myself. It’s designed like a treatment that you use twice a week as either a base coat or standalone product, and results are obvious from the first use. And honestly, it's perfect for those times you want to have something on your nails but can't be bothered with the whole routine, base coat, colour, second coat, (Third coat?The ‘semi-matte’ finish is nice, and if these nail polishes had a little more pigmentation I think they would work really nicely as a nail polish. The polish dries down to a semi matte finish, which I think looks really sophisticated, and the sheer hint of colour gives that barely there look, perfect for those days when you want your nails to look "done", but not with an obvious wash of colour.
