Good morning all! I hope you are having a fantastic day. I’ve been trying to sit down and plan out posts and some days it’s working out and some days it hasn’t. The life with 3 kids, 1 husband, 3 cats, and other chaotic happenings. But today I have two polishes from Barielle‘s new Prosina line: Cherish and Black Rose.
Cherish is a gorgeous baby pink creme polish. This is 2 coats and no top coat. I wanted to love this polish so much, but unfortunately the formula was just no bueno. It applied unevenly and bubbled, AND took forever to dry (I was going to do nail art with Black Rose). So I thought, “Hmm maybe it’s the conditions in my house right now.” So I tried again the next day and it did the same thing. 😦
Black Rose is a beautiful blackened cherry creme polish. (It reminds me of a Flathead cherry.) This is 2 coats and no top coat. No complaints on formula at all! I am in serious like with the color. But as I was going to do nail art with Cherish, I didn’t apply top coat and without it, my nails chipped within an hour. 😦
As I said, I was planning on doing nail art with the both polishes so I could do a wear test, but I just got so frustrated with the formula of Cherish that I gave up. Have you ever been so exasperated with a polish that you just threw in the towel?
I have never seen Barielle in the wild.
Me neither! Actually I take that back, I’ve seen it at Big Lots maybe? Or was that another brand. LOL
That’s correct, the majority of our sales are online. Luckily, if you follow us on Facebook, we often have sales that are exclusively for our followers, so keep an eye out & take advantage!
Both colors are nice and are staple shades too. Its too bad Cherish had such a difficult formula to work with though.
Ugh. With so many great polishes out there, it’s just not worth struggling with a formula like this!
Agreed, I have had a few that are just not worth the hassle, the new Wet n Wild was the most recent
The second polish is a really gorgeous color, and I actually don’t think I have anything like it in my collection. I’m in the same boat as Nichole though, and have never actually seen Barielle sold anywhere /:
Sucks about the formula with the pink, but my fave is the blackened red. I’m glad that one was better.
I had never heard about this line from Barielle and I’ll honestly stay away from it!
It’s so new and I appreciate they are trying out new things but I wished it performed better.
I looooove that soft pink!
