George At Asda Gel Pro nail polish Review

Hey guys, 

So a little about these polishes at first. I have these in a few different colours, so that may let you in to how I feel about these wonders. I have noticed Gel formula polishes are becoming some what big news on the high street and every brand is doing their own version. I being the cosmetics junkie that I am, have made it my business to get at least one from every brand and try them out. It is bliming expensive, but I am begining to have such a massive nail polish collection again. Yaay? 


The Lowdown

These little beauties come in a range of shades, they are around £3 and can be bought in everyone's local supermarket. Asda and can be bought online on their website. 

The Good 
Cheap
Great opaqueness
Come in a variety of colours
Good consistancy


The Bad
The brush is horrible
chips easily ( could just be my jobs fault at this though!)

Summary
I love these, they are a great fairly cheap alternative and who needs a polish to last 14 days anyway. These last long enough for me, as I like switching my nail colour about so often. I don't tend to use a top coat, I don't know why, but I am too lazy to have to wait for a top coat to dry. 

Would I repurchase. 
Yes I would, I have 3 of these and plan on getting a nice blue and perhaps a green if they have them. They come in a great variety of colours, I have a dark maroon red colour and 2 peachy coral colours.

Some places to find some high street make up for £1

Hey Guys, 

As you should all be aware I love to get the most for my pounds. Lately I have been scouring the high street bargain shops, to check out what sort of beauty finds are out there. 

As I work in discount Uk, I have seen the likes of Revlon nail polish, rimmel nail polish and O.P.I nail crackle effects go for around a £1. Bargain, right. 

This has obviously spurred on this post. I have been to a few other bargain buys stores to see what I could find. Luckily I think my shop has the best bits in at the minute and since we get our delivery on a Wednesday, I can always have a wee look to see which brand of polish it is for the week. In the few weeks I've worked there I have seen Sally Hansen both the Instadry and the suger coat versions, Rimmel lasting finish Pro and Revlon scented and colourstay versions. There has also been a small selection of Wet n Wild products that have came in, mainly a mineral powder and some spoiled named nail polish. 

I have also spotted a large selection of eyelashes, both high street branded and some random brands I have never heard of. I have picked up some Katy Perry ones by Eyelure at my work. 

There is also a large selection of haircare, skincare and bodycare items available, from big named brands such as Naked (sold at boots), nivea, Garnier, clean and clear, the list is endless. 

I would say next time, you go past one of the well known discount stores, go in and have a look at the beauty aisle, you may just be surprised at what you may find. I will try do a weekly or bi-weekly post on the new beauty bits I find in discount Uk ( the name might be changing.)

Ps guys will be doing a haul in the next few days of the bits I have picked up from my work.
