Twist & Out - Instant nail polish remover.

Hey Girlies,

I've been seeing the bourjois nail polish remover thing everywhere on the blogisphere, but i usually just use paton's nail polish remover in either the liquid or the pads and i've been using it for years, absolute years and it's still only 69p absolute bargain if you ask me.
But i was up the street a few days back and decided to go a wander around my local Poundland.... and i found this wee beaut.  "Twist & Out" nail polish remover, and the tub is really similar to that of Bourjois, so i thought well for only £1 i'm not losing anything if it's crap and to be honest i did expect it to be absolute nonsense.
However it is not, it's actually really good!

So it looks like this.

It's pretty similar all round to the Bourjois one, it's the same size and does the same thing really.  Inside there is a sponge with a little slit and you push your finger in and twist until all the nail polish is removed, it is literally that simple.  It's genuis why has no-one came up with it sooner.  It saves the mess of using cotton pads etc, and to be honest it doesn't smell horrendous either and youf fingers don't drip or anything once you remove them from the sponge if anything they are dry in an instant.  Once your finished you just pop the lid back down and put it away.  It does work, and it's not at all difficult to use, i'd fefinitely recommend it to anyone, especially good when you are in a hurry.

This is how it worked:

Painted nails. ^

Dip in and twist, one finger at a time. ^

Ta Dah....All polish gone. ^

 

Defo worth a purchase girls, specially at £1 and especially if you change your nail polish a lot, saves you time, hassel and mess!

 

Little Gem :)

 

 

Employment Luck!!

Can't believe my luck today, after being so happy at having gotten a Christmas job at Debenhams, i now have another interview. Yey.  This time it's for the Royal Mail again only temporary to cover the Christmas period!

Actually cannot believe my luck as last year i applied for everything going and got absolutely nowhere with it.  But now i have an interview for Next Wednesday! I know i already have my job at debenhams, butit's only 16 hours which is 4 hours/over 4 days and to be honest with birthday and christmas coming up i could use more, so i thought why not just go to the interview.  The royal mail interview is for night work and this would be perfect as it wouldn't interfere with my job at debenhams and i could use the extra money to get my family and best friend much nicer presents!! :)

so happy to have another interview, fingers crossed it goes well and i soon will have two jobs and some extra pennies!

Yey.

anyway go give me some monies for christmas presents!

Catch-up!

Hey Girlies!!

Thought i'd have a quick catch up with the blogisphere.
Been slightly awol recently, so thought i'd you all a wee update on what was happening.

So anyway what have you's all been up to anything exciting??

I've a had slightly mixed time of it lately.

The end of september was pretty disasterous, my cousin's partner had a sudden cardiac arrest and he didn't make it, it was a total shock, honestly never seen it coming what so ever, so that was my september weekend stuffed, i just lay in my bed for a week and spoke to no one and honestly i just felt lost i honestly don't know how my cousin coped, anyay had to travel down to Manchester for the funeral and it was honestly heartbreaking. But the funeral was lovely, really lovely and i hope she gets on okay and i hope she comes up here soon!!  :)  SO i done the driving to give my dad a break and it was quite an experience, spcially with all the artic lorries, they guys just don't care!

After returning home i kinda stayed home for another week just to get myself together, then it's just been a mish mash of stuff.  Been hanging out with my best friend and helping her with uni work, also been at the job centre as well.

On a totally brighter note i got a job! yey. Debenhams for christams, but honestly i would have taken anything just to get out of the job centre, the place is a joke!

Then i went to see Kevin Bridges with my brother at the SECC Glasgow and he was hilarious, absolutely hilarious, honestly never laughed so much in the space of 2 hours, some of his jokes were just so true like i done the same things at school it was so funny!

Also done some more baking too! Cupcakes & Shortbread haha.

so yeah been a total mixed bag, anyway here's some snaps of my time out from the blogisphere.

Also started my Christmas shopping, almost got my mum's sorted, got her big things anyway, looking forward to my first wage so i can get more in, although i need inspiration, totally don't know what to get for my dad or Kirsty, Dilema!!

Also as a quick note, my best friend Kirsty over at The Style Khalessi, is starting up a bookclub blog so if you like books then check out her book blog (The Bloggers Library)

Collective Haul.

Hey Girlies,

Seems likes ages ago since i last posted, which it was haha, but i'm back with some posts before i start working!!

So anyway thought i'd share with you some of the things i've picked up in a little collective haul of everything.  This is just stuff i;ve picked up and that my mum has bought for me in like the last 3 weeks! :)

First up my mum bought me a new quilt for my bed :) oh man it's so warm and cosy and i love it already, so brighten up the terribly dreary eather i put a nice bright bed cover on it :).  I got the quilt for £15 and for silent night that's pretty sweet!!  

Kirsty picked this up for me from Body care, i think they were on offer for like 2 for £2 or something.  It smells soooooo nice, i've half used it already and shall defo re-purchase next time i'm at a bodycare! :)

This was a mask sheet thing i got 10 from ebay for £1.25 and i use them for like soaking in toner and for putting my face mask on, they are actually really good.  Although you look a bit like a ghost they do work well.

I also bought this facial steamer, i got this for when i'm using my face masks, becuase instead of only using them in the bath, i can just steam my face and that will open my pores up and i can use my face masks that way too! get more use out of them.  this was £10 from Argos. Bargain.

More face wipes! they never go wrong and i go through them like they are going out of fashion, they were on offer in boots on 3 for £3 so i just picked up 3 packs.

Bought this mud pack, instead of buying the individual pack, for £1 each i bought the bigger pack for only £5 and i'll get quite a few uses out of this so it's definitely worth the money.

This is just like a cheap version of Zovirax lol.  I got it because i cut my lip right at the corner on a piece of paper and it just started to crack and wasn't getting better so i bought this for £1 from bodycare to help dry it and heal it up, it does work, all be it.. it takes abit longer, but at £6 for a small tube zovirax just wasn't an option.  But this done the trick!

This is this nail polish thing that everyone is going on about, and this is the £1 shop version, i've no idea if it works as i haven't used it yet, but i shall review it and let you know.

This as a pack of little dotting tools that i bought off ebay.  It's 5 little tools with different sized balls at the bottom that leave a small or large dot.  I got the set for £1.36 which is a gooooodie.

This is a No7 nail polish that i picked up with a boots voucher, but beware it's all changed, the bottles are different, and the voucher is only £3 off now instead of 5 but they have brought the price of the nail polish down to £5.50 instead of £8 so you still get your nail polish for £2.50. Lovely colour and as good as the No7 stuff always is.

Picked these tights from Primark, they were each £1, the first ones (left) nude ith little darker nude spots.  The other ones are black and in the middle they have little nude bits ith black bows.  They are cute and i love tights!

This cardigan i picked up from Primark on the sale rack, it's black with a pink diamond chain like design, super cute and super cosy!! :) i got it for £4 instead of £14 Yey. Bargain.

This was just a "work" outfit pick up lol. Black trousers from primark, they were only £5 and they will totally do the business.

Plain white vest top, who doesn't need one of those?
haha, i find that when you buy a white vest top and wear it a few times, after a few washes it's not white anymore, so this was only £2 and i needed another one but i also was looking for a longer one.

also picked up this super cute bag, it's a good size and is studded with silver studs and it can be a clutch bag or it can be an over the body bag as the strap is totally removable!  this was only £6 and i'll use it for both everyday/work/and nights out!
total best all rounder type bag.

 I've been eyeing this up for ages!!!!! And then today i found it on the sale rack, it was without the belt so i got more money off the sale price, haha yey!  It's a little playsuit with little white rabbits all over it, has a little peter pan collar and the collar is connected by a little chain and has two little pockets, it's honestly the cutest wee thing, and i'll rock it up with tights and that'll be that.  It was originally £15, down to £5 but i got it for £3 because the belt as missing. bargain!!

This is my absolute Favourite little dress.  Found it in the sale rack, tucked aay in amongst lots of other clothes, and it was a total gem of a find, i love love LOVE it.  The colour is so nice and i think the little polka dot collar and pockets just sets it off competely, it's so nice and i love shift dresses. So Cute!!!  This was only £5 :) best purchase soooooo far!

These 3 are new leggings.
First ones (top left)  i got these from the new look sale, they are lovely, they are like a metallic sheen material with an all over animal print, they are navy blue and really different and pretty they also have a high waist. They ere £20, down to £9 and i got 20% off using a code thingy so i got them for just over £7, really good price, and i really like them :).

The second ones (top right) were a random purchase from Tesco, seen them on the sale rack and i'm loving the burgundy colour trend right now so these were perfect plus they are thick material perfect for winter. £5.

and lastly << These are just another everyday pair of black thick leggings from H&M. £7

These were purchased only last week as i already have the grey ones.  These are the ultra soft jeans, they are almost like jeggings but a bit better, they were £11 but cmpared to £40 odd from topshop they were a pretty good bargain.  they are super comfy as well. So hopefully they will bring out more colours and i'll be picking up some more!

this was just a little crop top from Primark, £2 and i'll wear it over a long vest top or with my disco pants!! :)

just a wee top from h&m for £6, i love grey and i love that all the grey tones are coming back out again, this is just an everyday top!

Another wee H&M purchase, i got this again as a sort of everyday top, but i also like the sleeves are longer too and the longer hem line at the back is good too! longer tops are needed for winter coming in. £10

Another casual grey top (haha can you see a pattern emerging), it was a sale purchase from Dorothy Perkins!, just plain and has little buttons on the shoulders.  Plus longer sleeves are a must for winter so here's my winter wardrobe starting.  £5 

little transparent cream shirt, has long sleeves but they can be tied up or left long.  really nice little shirt, perfect for causl but also for dressing up too! Primark £6.

Sorry girlies i just realised how long this is haha, apologies!

So happy, it's only debenhams and it's only the home department for 16 hours a week but i honestly don't even care it beats having to go to the job centre that's for sure!
