Weekend Nail Haul and Nail Mail

Hey Lovelies!

Well the inevitable has finally happened - I broke my middle nail right down below the smile line on my right hand this morning :( so today I bring you a new type of post other than swatches I am going to show you what I bought at the weekend and what I received in today's mail.

So late last week and this weekend I ventured to Poundland after a tip-off that they had been selling Sally Hansen Salon Manicure polishes in the newer bottles. I was desperate to locate some and am so glad I did, look what I found ...


L-R - Casting Call, Eel Skin, Barracuda, Camelia, Delphinium, First Kiss and Model Behaviour. They are all cremes and I cannot wait to try them out - I am still in shock at how cheap they are as they are usually about £6.99 each!

Also, whilst in Poundland I also stumbled across these little beauties ...


L-R - Revlon Top Speed Metallic 860, Revlon Topspeed Stormy 820, Revlon Touch of Mauve 100 and Revlon Craving Coral 902. What a bargain considering Revlon's usually retail at £6.99 too!

Also, at the weekend I bought H&M's "Blue My Mind" which looks so gorgeous in the bottle and from swatches online, Blue My Mind cost £2.99 and I think I shall be wearing this very soon! Also, today I received my Pretty&Polished polishes that I bought from the store on Etsy. These are custom franken polishes and the ones I chose were "Jawbreaker", Chelsea Chelsea Bling Bling" and "Party on my Yacht". I cannot tell you how excited I am try these out they look so amazing!! The bottles are so cute!


Ok, so last but not least ... once I heard about the new Nails Inc gift and then once I saw it I thought it was just too cute to pass up. I knew I wanted a back up bottle of Baker Street so took the plunge and placed an order. I also purchased a trio gift set and some other gifts for swaps
(not shown). The free gift consisted of a cute neon skull cosmetic bag which is also neon orange lined and I really like the quality too! Also, a Skull nail file and two full size polishes:- "Sumner Place" and "Wellington Square". On the bottom row pictured are:- "Baker Street", "Henrietta Street", "Eagle Street" and "Chalk Farm". I had to spend £35 to qualify for the free gift and there were a few other options to choose from.



After collecting all of these polishes together to take photos I never realised I had bought so many in such a short space of time and now I am presented with a dilemma of which one to try first? Any help or preference of which ones you would like to see?

Do you like to see nail haul posts as I am considering whether to post more in future? x

  7. I was quite disappointed with my last trip to £land. I managed to pick up Delphinium and Revlon Emerald City but for the most part the polishes looked like they'd been lying on their side for about 5 years!
