Baby Blue and Turquoise

I got my hands on Dior Saint-Tropez (401) but unfortunately can’t do a swatch – the wheather is still cloudy and thus, it’s a bit dark in the flat too. However, the shade is a beautiful turquoise, and I did a quick bottle comparison.

Chanel Riva, Chanel Nouvelle Vague, Dior Saint-Tropez, Barry M Pure Turquoise.

Saint-Tropez has a slightly bigger proportion of green in direct comparison with Nouvelle Vague, but it is as creamy as Pure Turquoise, while both Chanels have this subtle shimmer, which becomes nearly invisible after application.

[Barry M] Cyan Blue

It’s a medium blue.

One coat. I’m pretty much into this summery blue

[Barry M] Pure Turquoise

In my opinion, more a light blue than turquoise, but nice anyway.

Two coats.

[Barry M] Red Black

This is actually more red than black; I’d say a burgundy red with a bit of a jelly base.

Two coats (three on the index since I messed it up).

[Barry M] Block Orange

A bright opaque orange.

[Barry M] Lemon Ice Cream

A pastel cream yellow. Sweet. Photo taken outside.

That’s a salad someone had given to me.

[Barry M] Grey

Grey matter. Medium grey.

Two coats. This looks darker than it actually is.

[Barry M] Cobalt Blue

Creamy royal blue.

Unfortunately, this is not very colour authentic. Actually the blue is much more vibrant.

[Barry M] Chocolate Brown

A yummy medium milk chocolate brown.

Two coats (yes, I bumped the index and middle fingers…).

[Barry M] Berry Ice Cream

A creamy lilac.

Two coats.

Just to show you how Berry Ice Cream (on the left) compares to Lilac (Eyeko). Lilac is a bit darker.
