Good colour but I always find that Barry m nail paint chips after only a day so I'm looking into other brands with the same range of colours but with better chip-resistance.

well to be honest, i dont know why i purchased this in the first place, i already have colours very similar but what i did notice is that its not very pigmented you need a few coats to get a solid colour. The colour was fine but i do really like barry m polishes as they have a nice consistency. would recommend but i would not purchase again as i have better ones in this colour.

Although the name is 'Mint Green' I found it to be more of a Green Apple colour, but this suited me fine as although it has a slightly darker tone it is still a pastel green. I have loads of Barry M nail paint and this is just as good as any other, it doesn't dry very quickly, but only takes about 2 coats and the colour pigment is definitely worth waiting for! The price is also brilliant, as a student I never want to spend too much on makeup so Barry M's range is perfect for a cheap colour pop look.

I'm sure there's slightly better quality mint-green nail varnishes, but you really cannot beat the price. It needs a couple of quotes and a bit of patience while it dries but Barry M is near impossible to beat in terms of nail varnish.

Very sheer so 3+ coats needed for full coverage, and takes too long to dry compared to other Barry M polishes.

A beautiful colour - very appropriate for St Patrick's day which I bought it for. However the formula takes AGES to dry and although it looked great once I applied my base coat and 2 layers of the polish followed by top coat, this only lasted for one day. Even after all that prepping it still chipped! I love Barry M's range of colours but the formula's just takes too long for me to dry!

Great colour for the spring. For a completely opaque nail you need 2/3 coats of this stuff. Very sheer and of a very runny consistency. O.K for the money but it doesn't cut the custard for me. Also takes around 15 minutes for it to dry.

This has fast become one of my favourite colours in the Barry M range, mainly because it's an almost perfect dupe of Macs Peppermint Patti, at a fraction of the price. Takes two coats for full opacity and lasts up to a week depending on the topcoat used. The only problem I have with it, and most other Barry M polishes, is the drying time. This is definitely one to apply when you have an hour or two free, and don't apply any time too close to bedtime or it's almost guaranteed you'll end up with sheet imprints.

As with all Barry M nail paints, this is a great nail varnish. Barry M has such a wide variety of colulors and this is such a great summer colour. I have repurchced it around 3/4 times now because it is my go to summer colour! The price is very cheap (£2.99 in boots) and it has a great, thick consistancy, you only need to do 1-2 coats for it to become opaque. I would definitely recommend this product.

I got a sample of this with a magazine and fell in love with it! I was already a big fan of Barry M, especially their nail polishes. Such a beautiful colour that works all year round, very easy to apply and I can't get over just how grat they make my nails look. I've had so many lovely comments from my friends and family on my nails! I shall definately buy again.

I'm always on the lookout for nice minty-green polishes and had high hopes for this one by Barry M. However, I just do not like the colour. It's much more of a darker green than I was expecting and doesn't flatter my NC37 skin nicely. My bestfriend actually asked me why I was wearing such a nasty nail colour...formula isn't as good as other Barry M polishes I've tried either, more streaky and chips faster.

Mint Green is a really lovely color - great for Spring and Summer! Like most pastels, the application was a bit difficult. It was runny and streaky, and needed three coats to be opaque. Barry M makes superb pastels, and this is definitely something I would purchase again.

Super fun seafoam-y mint green creme! It applies reasonably well for a pastel-ish kind of shade (I find pale, chalky, pastel shades from most any brand apply unevenly). I used three thin coats and it is pretty good with nary a bald spot to be seen. I love this green for Easter, as well.

Love this! Perfect colour, exactly what I've been searching for. Hasn't chipped yet but will update if it doesn't last too long. It's been 2 days so far though :) Will definitely be repurchasing more of these! x

My HG for mint green polish! I bought this after seeing a photo of Alexa Chung on Garancedore.fr and finding out it was this exact shade. It was dirt cheap and the formula is still amazing even having it for over a year. I've gotten a lot of compliments on it as well, it would look great on all skin types (I'm NC44). Will definitely buy again!

I brought this after so long, I heard people rave about it expessically it being a dupe for a chanel nail varnish! (which seeing dusky mauve barry m have a habit for) I finally bit the bullet afetr buying so many barry m nail polishes and I have never looked back :D Its is completely amazing and at £2.95 its completely amazing!

This is my first Barry M nail varnish. I know how popular they are so decided to buy one but I was disappointed. I tried so hard to like it and tried several times to apply this but the formula is so thin and streaky. I had to apply about 4 coats before it resembled the colour in the bottle. Yet by then it felt thick and still looked streaky. I don't know if this was a bad one or maybe other Barry M nail polishes are better. Unfortunately won't be repurchasing.

I really like the colour (a blue based green) but I wish the finish wasn't so...shiny? It looks like I've applied a top coat on when I haven't and I'm not really a fan of the overly shiny finish. Holds up well without chipping for 4 days or so and applies with minimal streaking.

Great colour, extremely vibrant without looking tacky. Polish doesn't chip, it lasts on the nails for 4-5 days BUT this colour will stain your nails horribly without a base coat. The polish also went thick on me after 6 months
