Wail: Mini Haul!

Hey everyone!
You better be having a good week (if not then hopefully the rest of the week will be a lot better)!
I decided to have a last minute post-reshuffle... Today's post will be showing a mini-haul, and Friday's post will reveal my pink mani!


Shopping Receipt:
Models Own "Shades" - £5 from Superdrug
Maybelline Express Finish "Khaki Green" - £1 from Poundland
Sally Hansen Magnetic Nail Colour "Kinetic Copper" - £1 from Poundland
Sally Hansen Sugar Coat "Sweetie" - £1 from Poundland
Total: £8! Bargain! :)

So, yes... Poundland has been a rather large hit today! I was pretty chuffed to find some decent polishes in there, so make sure you all keep your eyes peeled when you're around your local Poundland store.

Let's start with a closer look at the Maybelline polish then!


The "express finish 40" part on the bottle is suggesting to me that it's a speed dry polish- exciting!


As for the colour, it's looking like a very satisfying army-camouflage green, and I can't wait to try it!


Moving on, I present to you a magnetic Sally Hansen polish! Remember when magnetic polishes were all-the-rage? Ahhh, good times.


This colour looks so amazing, I just can't wait to give it a try. It's reminding me of Autumn, so will definitely be a colour to pull out more in that time of year.


I'm hoping the magnetic effect will be pretty awesome, but we shall just have to wait and see, won't we? :)


That brings us to the next Sally Hansen polish, which is a pastel-looking yellow, which is actually a little split in the bottle, so I'm not entirely sure how well it'll work out, but since it was only £1, I'm willing to take the risk!


This cute, fun colour is called "Sweetie" and I think the Sally Hansen "Sugar Coat" polishes are textured polishes, so this will be a cute mani when I get round to trying the polish!



That leaves one more polish for us to cover then, and that is... this one!


Behold the bright glory of Models Own's "Shades" (which may be required for this polish), from their Polish for Tans collection.


This bright pink shade will be the perfect addition for the rest of the Summer days, and maybe even a nice cheerful shade to brighten up those Winter months. I can't wait to try this!


 Now before you disappear, I actually made one more purchase today that I wouldn't mind featuring on the blog... Introducing Rimmel's new mascara- it's "Wonder'full" (no really, that's the name of it...)

It's got a wonderful (...oops) new formula containing Argan oil, which is a moisturising oil, that's supposed to be able to moisturise and therefore help to strengthen your lashes- yay!


The shape of the packaging is adorable... I love it so much! And the mascara wand has lots of comb-like bristles which are perfect for grasping all of those lashes. Yet another thing that I can't wait to try, so I will keep you updated on this via twitter/facebook :) 


You can find this mascara in Superdrug/Boots for the currently discounted price of £5.99, though the discount can't last forever and will return to the original price of £7.99, so if you want it, snap it up fast!


And I do believe that covers all products, so I shall bid you farewell for now, and catch up with you all on Friday!
Also, if you're getting A2 or AS results tomorrow (Thursday), then Good Luck to you!! Feel free to share how you do- I'm sure you'll have done great!! 


See ya!

  1. Kinetic Copper is a lovely colour and I believe (from memory) that the effect is also great. Sweetie is a really pretty colour and another polish I already! The poundshops are a favourite of mine for polish, especially if you have a good rummage for the hidden gems. :)

    1. Ooo awesome! I can't wait to try them, I'll have to make sure I do soon before they get forgotten about :') I think poundshops may be my new favourite bargain place hehe, though they had a lot of extremely split polishes, but I'm up for digging!

Insta'd... Shopping!

Hey everyone! So whilst exams are underway, I'm gonna be posting some random updates showing my recent instagram pics and writing some text-only posts. Today I'm grouping up my last week-or-so's shopping items! First of all, I ordered some pretty little MoYou London  stamping plates and an XL stamper... And I'm loving them all. You'll hear loads more about these post-exams!

Wiki'd Nails: Tesla

Hey everyone! Today's "Wiki'd Nails" Challenge subject is "Tesla"... of the Nikola Tesla variety. I must say, I recognised the name when I first read it but wasn't sure what he did. Apparently he's best known for the AC system in electricity, which sparked a few ideas to transfer onto nails. My first plan was going to be some lightning strike nails, but then I remembered about a new stamping plate I got...

Happy New Year! (Have a quick update~)

Happy New Year! I hope all of you had a lovely 2014, and have an even better 2015!
