Haul

February 2013 Nail Polish Haul Part 1

Oh dear… I thought my January Haul was bad…!! I have decided to split this into two posts as I was extremely lucky last month – a  lady who was closing up her beauty business was selling all her OPIs and China Glazes, and she ever so kindly let me have them for an absolute steal… anyway, more on that in part 2! In this post are the polishes I bought individually throughout the month. There are a couple that I actually ordered in January but which didn’t arrive until February so I included them here. 🙂

January 2013 Nail Polish Haul

I’m a little bit ashamed of the amount of money I’ve spent on nail polishes this month… but I thought I should share my shameful purchases because they are all SO pretty 🙂

Cheapie Clothes Haul!

Ok so I know this is a bit different to my usual nail posts haha but I recently stocked up on several staple tops (and skirts) which really didn’t cost a lot, so I thought I’d draw your attentions to it while the sales are still on! And before you laugh 😛 yes I did get most of it from Tesco, but they are actually decent quality and very standard, if you didn’t see the label they could have come from anywhere. Tesco’s sale has a lot of items that are 70% off so it’s worth a nosey.

Oh and I wouldn’t click on the photos as they are utterly crap, I’m no clothes photographer, I’m sorry!

Top left: £2
Top right: £4
Bottom right: £1.60
Top right*: £2.50
Bottom left* & right*: 2 for £8
Bottom right*: £12
Skirt: M&S; £12
Skirt: M&S; £25
Top: QS £5
Scarf: Tesco £5

So really all of these have been fab bargains, very standard clothes but I’ll need a lot of them for uni. UCAS Track finally updated which is such a relief as it kind of makes it feel official whereas before I only had the admissions lady’s word for it, which didn’t feel as convincing haha. So now I have to fork out on lots of lovely expensive books haha. I’m also considering getting a netbook, does anyone have any suggestions?

Nails Inc. Lucky Dip Haul!

I feel a bit bad posting this since the Lucky Dip offer is over, and these polishes seem to be mostly discontinued. However most of them are available on eBay, some of them cheaper than the RRP for Nails Inc. polishes.

Just over a week ago I was about to go out for dinner and spotted the Nails Inc. Twitter update about the Lucky Dip, which was essentially the A+E Treatment Base Coat plus four random polishes, for the grand total of just £10. And I mean, this is a huge saving, considering Nails Inc. polishes usually retail at £11 and the A+E basecoat is usually £12. All in all it was a saving of £46. Postage was nearly £4 but for once I won’t complain as this really was still a good deal.

My thinking was that even if I hated all 4 polishes, I would still have the basecoat (which is much needed) for less than the RRP.

So here is what I received!

If you can’t read these please click on the photo for a bigger image – sorry!
I have already worn all of them except Battersea Power Station which is a bit icky, but maybe it could work with some nail art? Lol… I can see why it was part of a lucky dip, they must have had a hard time shifting it!
Anyway, thank you Nails Inc. for this lovely lovely deal, I would never normally buy Nails Inc. as they are just too expensive for me, but as usual I always have my eye on certain ones 😉
I know they’ve done lucky dips before and several other unmissably good deals so keep a lookout! I’m looking forward to showing you all of these in due course 🙂
Sorry for this slightly non-useful post, but as I say they can be found on eBay!
