Tried and Tested: Barry M Nail Corrector Pen

Today I'd like to have a little talk about a certain nail-related product which, ever since the day I discovered it, may have just changed my life. Too far?

I always used to struggle with the fact I was a very, very messy nail painter. Perhaps not so much on my left hand - anyone else get that? - but on my right, more often than not I was left with my talons looking like I lacquered them up drunk at 2am in the dark. Seriously. However, when browsing the aisles of Boots maybe last year or so I came across a product that claimed to restore everything back to its perfectly manicured self. And naturally, I was sold.

Introducing, the Barry M Nail Corrector Pen. This comes with a nib already built into one end, a couple of spares in the other and some nail polish remover liquidy-y stuff floating in between. In summary, it makes tidying up your nails when you've gone a bit overboard a whole lot easier. Simply use the already soaked nib to draw round any mistakes and voila - they're gone. Each nib is double-ended so when you've got as many uses out of one end as you can, simply pull it out and do some switching about and you're good to go again. As I said I've had mine for quite some time, use it regularly (I told you I always make a mess) and have only just repurchased another so, I think that speaks for itself about its longevity. The smell is also one which doesn't immediately conjure up the thought of 'nail polish remover' so that too gets the thumbs up from me. Can you tell I like this, a lot? I did tell you it's changed my life.

Do you too have issues applying nail polish? Have you tried this product or anything similar? LETS BOND OVER THIS. (P.S. I feel like I've said the word 'nib' far too many times in this post. I apologise.)
