I have owned all of the Barry M lip liners at one point or another except for Peony, Sugar, Blush, and Coral as I thought they were either too light or too bright in a way that wouldn’t suit my skin tone. I had to let go of enormous amounts of makeup, and I turned my knowledge as a makeup artist into a full-time blogging job. I’m happy I spent years perfecting my makeup artistry, in the end, even if that period of my life was probably one of the hardest I had to go through (ah, the joys of being a freelancer, and the joys of being an artist). The first time I got the Barry M lip liners, I think it just took me a few weeks to bag them all except one or two shades, which I thought were way too light for me or any model I’d use them on.

Under a clear lip gloss, all the Barry M lip liners look absolutely stunning, but the Rose lip liner is both more colored and more muted than Russet and Toast in my opinion. If you’ve been eyeing the MAC Soar lip pencil, which is indeed one of the best MAC lip liners for fair skin and don’t want to splurge just now, Rose is the perfect everyday lip pencil to wear on its own. There are currently 15 different Barry M lip liner shades, which I’ll tell you about below; today is a full review of the colors I deem to be the best Barry M lip liners; Russet, Rose, and Toast.Don’t laugh when I say that, but the makeup stores in London are a big part of why I moved to London in the first place. I’ve always been addicted to color, and when I saw all the stunning drugstore makeup brands at Superdrug and Boots, I was over the moon. If you have a medium to medium-dark skin tone, the Barry M Russet lip liner is what I’d get if I wanted the perfect Barry M nude lip pencil. If you’re darker, I would get Chocolate, Mulberry or Minx. Delivery is on a selected date, you can choose a delivery day of your choice, up to 10 days in advance (Excluding next day delivery.

The Toast Lip liner glides very easily on the lips, and I have found it to be slightly drying – as would any matte lipliner be when worn on its own.

PS. There are three of the Barry M lip liner shades I won’t mention here today; Sugar, Peony, and Coral. I’m guessing Sugar and Peony could be MAC lip liner dupes for shades like Boldly Bare, Subculture, and/or Edge to Edge. Yet, you’ll find that it’s got this really warm, almost reddish tone to it that makes it perfect if you’re fair-skinned and looking for a new color for evening looks, for instance.I’ve been a great fan of the Barry M products for quite a long time, and I’ve found that some of the best MAC lip liner dupes actually come from this British makeup brand. I just wear a lip balm that I blend out with a tissue so it’s not too oily under the lip liner and it can stay on all day. It’s very similar to the MAC Spice lip liner, a bit of a neutral lip liner color with a slightly warm undertone. But for now, we’re going to talk about all the best Barry M dupes for MAC lip liners, and while they’re super affordable, I can promise you that you’ll never overlook them again!
