Another nail review from Primark...
These little babies cost just £1 from Primark! After the last set of perfect nails which I also reviewed I decided to give these a pop. These are slightly shorter which is a bit more comfortable for me, means I can type and use my phone as normal, not to mention change my sons nappy without scratching or eye loss on his part...
Here is how they look:
Upon close inspection I have noticed a few imperfections, which I am guessing is why they are £1 but it really is on close inspection and I doubt anyone else would notice; such as a smudge on one of the black lines but I challenge you to find which one on the picture!
All in all I think they are great value nails, I'm not sure how long they will last as just had them done so will update this post when they come off, but I suspect a while as they are on nice and tight and the previous pair were fab.
Another great Primark product, rush out and bulk buy!
UPDATE: They lasted 8 days! 8 days for a pound, WOW!

Sure Crystal Clear Pure
One of the products I use on a daily basis without fail has to be deodorant. I worry if I'm not wearing and feel self conscious. This is by far my favourite deodorant to wear and here is why.
It claims 48hr protection, even for the most active women and I definately agree with it. I apply it in the morning when I get out of the shower and that's it until my next shower, I never smell or feel sticky under my arms. Infact, (TMI) when I do actually start to sweat the deodarant kicks in and smells really nice. I cant quite place the scent of it but it is a very powdery smell almost like baby powder. It also boasts white mark protection like most deodorants these days, and I have never had a problem with white marks on black clothing while using it. One bottle tends to last me about 2 weeks of using every day so I do think its great value for money, it retails at around £2.10 for 150ml.

If you are after a very nice smelling deodorant that's long lasting I would definately buy this! Its normally on 3 for 2 in boots, or just this week I managed to pick up 3 for £5 at Asda. ;)

St Moriz Fake Tan Mousse
I will admit it to you all now, I don't general wear fake tan very often. I am happy with my skin tone and when the sun comes out I am blessed with a nice tanned glow. However, when the sun doesn't come out for a while I get a sickly pallor which would make even the Cullen's feel queasy. So when the time comes, I reach for St Moriz.
I haven't used this product in a while, the last bottle I purchased myself was from TJ Hughes for £1.99 and since the closure in Plymouth I thought I was doomed. But hooray for Bargain stores, its now on sale for £2.99 at Savers for 200ml.
Heres how it looks:

If you wear fake tan, certainly reach for this product, seriously. I get the best results when I ex foliate and moisturise the day before, but its up to you... Its a mousse texture that you just rub on to your skin, you don't have to worry about being too even with it as long as its all over and there are no marks. Go to bed, or wait at least 8 hours, then jump in the shower. While in the shower you will notice any of the nastiness coming off and leaving a lovely sun kissed glow. I only like a little sun kissed glow so one application is fine for me and last a good week or so, great for those nights out. I find it doesn't leave you looking like a baked bean, orange, or any other variant of Katie Price skin tone you can think of.
In all, its a great product just be careful once its open to leave the product upright or you may end up with a nasty leak on your carpet ;)
Suddenly Madame Glamour
Well, I was in need of a new perfume. My favourite bottles were all empty and my Mum is an avid Chanel wearer. She heard about this perfume on a YouTube video promoting the perfume. It is claimed that the perfume smells just like Chanel and you are even challenged to smell the difference!
The best part of it, it retails at £3.99 for 50ml which is an absolute bargain but not only that we managed to get it on offer for £1.99! Arghhhhhhh!
Here is how it looks:
Im not going to lie, the packaging doesn't make me wet my pants in anticipation. It looks like a standard sort of perfume you can pick up in Wilkinson's...
Now for the smell, I personally cant tell the difference between this and Chanel Coco Mademoiselle. No seriously. At all. My Mum however can tell the difference but only just, and to be fair she's been wearing the perfume steady now since we bought it...
The only down side I can see is that the perfume doesn't really have lasting power, at the end of a long day of wearing it it does get a sort of stale-ish smell. Not noticeable to someone who isn't sitting on your lap but still, stale perfume isn't great.
All in all, a really great find, its an amazing product for the price, especially if you want a designer smelling product for less than a tenth of the price. Amazing. ;)

Dove Go Fresh Revive Body Wash Pomegranate
Empty product review coming up!
I actually love this product so much, it smells absolutely divine. It retails at around £1.20 for 250ml which I think is a fairly reasonable price. The packaging is synonymous with Dove, the standard shaped white bottle with a picture on the front that explains what is inside. Simple.

Now I dont generally buy into the hype about moisturising body wash, I just want a body wash that washes me and makes me smell as good as I look (eye roll) but I really did notice a difference with this body wash. It made my skin smooth and silky and made me feel like it was doing my skin good. The colour of the product itself is a slightly pinkish purple colour which I thought was lovely.
But the thing I loved the most about this product... the smell! It made me instantly fall in love with it. Its a lovely fruity scent that isn't too over powering, its just perfect. Ill be getting another bottle soon!
To sum up its a great product and I think Dove have done fantastic. The smell is amazing, the price is great. ;)
