Barry M cosmetics was founded in 1982 by Mr. Barry Mero, and what a blast from the past these coloured mascaras truely are! Harking back to the 80's, blue mascara was a must (along with leg warmers and sweatbands) in the height of fashion, and Barry M certainly delivers the modern day goods for the recent 80's revival in the current fashion scene. The 'coloured mascara' from the Barry M range comes with a RRP of £4.95 on the high street, which can seem a little pricey, but compared to plain black, everyday wear, non-fashion mascaras that can cost upwards of £8, this tube of vibrance is a bargain!

I chose sky blue originally which was clearly visable through the packaging. The product Sadly the mascara met my expectations, the consistancy is gooey and doesn't glide onto your ...  Read the complete review

I have been a fan of Barry M products for about a year now. They've always had variety and been a little more experimental with colours and textures than a lot of other brands on the market. So when I found myself embracing the 80's revival I headed straight to the nearest Barry M stockist to perfect the makeup look. I chose the sky blue version of the lengthening mascara for true authenticity! On using the product, I expected the results to be a little less intense than the colour featured on the tube.
