Primark Black Silver and Pink Nails

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!

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 ;)
