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.

George At Asda Nail Paint.
Hey Guys,
I have had a recent addiction to buying nail polish. This is just a little post on my new recent favourites from a recent trip to Asdas.
I went in Asda's just meaning to browse the clothes and beauty bits they have. I was quickly drawn to the George at Asda beauty line. I'm a sucker for trying new things and I have never tried anything from this brand. So I picked up a lipstick (Blog to follow) and 3 of the nail polishes.
I got the inky gray nail varnish, which is in the cheaper range of nail polish. This cost me just £1.75. They have nearly every colour in every shade of the rainbow. I am in love with this colour. It last really well, without a top and base coat. I am too lazy and like to get my nails done quickly, so rarely use top and base coats. This one dries very quickly and lasts a long time, I always chip my nails fairly quick. But once this bad boy sets, its on for a long time. I will definitely be picking up a few more of the colours.
The next one I got to try, was the 3D glitter range, which was around £2.50. I got the gold shade in this line, after 2 coats, my nails are super sparkly and opaque. This for me didn't last very long and it seemed to be like the kids peel off nail polish. I'm hoping if I top and base coat this baby, it will hopefully last a lot longer. ( Pic to follow)
The final one I got, was their version of the gel polishes. I got this as I have heard a lot about gel polishes recently. So I decided when I seen it I had to pick it up and try it.I got a gorgeous maroon shade. I done 2 thin layer of this and it looked great. It doesn't dry very quickly though. But I do like the glossy finish that it gives off. I have already got one of my fellow bloggers to pick me up another bottle.
I have to admit, although sceptical at first about these polishes, they are a great buy for the budget beauty buyer. I love them.
Until next time, my lovelies

Blog Haul #2
Hey Guys and Dolls,
I have been out again this week and picked a few things.
Firstly I picked up a few nail polishes from the George at Asda range. I picked up one of their normal range of polish, that costs £1.75 and I also grabbed one of their take on gel polish which was £3. I also picked up whilst in Asda a collection deluxe lipstick in the Red colour, I think I got it for around £2.50, I also picked up a George at Asda lipstick, I got a pink one, that cost £3.50.
Also that day I received a package of two Wet and Wild lipsticks from the states.I got 2 of the Matte lipsticks in an orange shade and a dark purple. In the same order I got a Lime Crime Pink Velvet Velvetine. I can't remember how much these were, but they are all gorgeous.
Then yesterday I decided to go into Tesco's for a little browse and pick my dad up a birthday card. But I got dragged into the make aisle. I got sucked into the 3 for 2 offer on Barbara Daly make up range that Tesco's do. I picked up a a gel eyeliner, that cost £4, a eyeshadow crayon in the colour bronze gold, for £3 (reduced from £7). I also picked up something called helping hands that was reduced to £3.50, I have no clue what I do with it but I shall learn.
I also recently bought the Garnier Miscellar Water, for £3.33, I look forward to using all of these products and there might be a few cheeky review coming your way.
Until next time guys.
