Barry M make some of my favourite nail polishes that I wear all the time, however, they have launched two adorable little palettes to expand their face makeup range. So far nothing from the Barry M makeup range has made it’s way into my daily makeup routine, but fingers crossed….
Each palette is £5.99, making them super affordable. The packaging of both is sturdy and feels very good quality. The colours look pretty, all in all a good start.
Barry M Concealer Palette – Light/Medium
This palette comes with 6 concealer shades, four with yellow undertones and two more on the pink undertone. I’m normally not keen on these types of concealers (except the Benefit Boing concealer, which I lost…), but I’m always willing to give them a go. First things first, I feel like there is only one shade that I really get on with, meaning most of the palette is completely redundant. The formula is a little waxy, and I would say it is a light-medium coverage formula, but essentially it’s not a bad concealer… I just think there’s many better.
Barry M Blusher Quad Palette
This palette comes with 4 blusher shades, each with completely different undertones, but all very flattering. The blushers are pigmented, but blend well, they last fairly well on the skin, and the shimmer behind them makes your skin look very alive and healthy. I actually like the bronzy-toned blushes, they look really pretty for a night out look, and the two shades at the bottom are pretty for everyday. I really like this palette.
I feel like drugstore do blushes so well, and I rarely see the need to ever spend more on blushes than the £3-8 mark.
Have you tried these products? If so, what were your thoughts?

I haven’t seen these is store yet. I’d give the concealer palette a miss but I like the look of the blush palette.
It’s so pretty 😍 and superdrug stock them 😊
The blush looks super pretty and I love how those shades compliment each other. xx
I know, you can layer them really well 😊
Those palettes look great! I have to give Barry M a try! What are your favorite products from that brand?
Definitely the nail polishes! Their lip liners are also lovely. Their eyeshadow formula is quite nice, and their lipsticks are pretty but a tad drying. I haven’t actually tried their foundations/concealers/mascaras I’m afriad
