Fragrance Direct Revlon Nail Polish Haul

Hi guys! Those of you who are followers of Bee's Knees will know that I am a complete and utter nail polish addict. I love the stuff, and have plenty of it. But that doesn't stop me from buying more... oh no! Quite the opposite - I'm sometimes a bit compulsive about having to 'complete' my nail polish collection! So when I had a little bit of time on my hands last week I found myself perusing Fragrance Direct for beauty bargains, and here's what I bought!

As you can see I ended up with quite a few new polishes! I adore the formula of Revlon's nail varnish, and couldn't resist adding these beauties to my collection because they were only 99p each!

I picked up two Top Speed formulas in the world's most beautiful royal blue (Royal) and a unique orange/red metallic shade. You can treat yourself to these too for 99p HERE.

I also got three of the regular Revlon formulas, Stunning is a glitter top coat that looks amazing with large silver/white glitter pieces. Charismatic is a pretty pastel orange that reminds me of one of my all time favourites, Collection Hot Looks Fruit Loop. And Blue Lagoon looks like a dupe for Essie's popular Bikini So Teeny with its tiny shimmery particles and gorgeous baby blue shade. Again these were a mere 99p each and you can find them all HERE.

Whilst I was browsing I came across this fast try base coat from Sally Hansen for £1.50. It's no secret that I adore the Sally Hansen Insta Dri top coat and since my base coat is on it's last legs I popped this in my basket to try. Stay tuned for my thoughts! If you want to give this a go too you can find it HERE.

Fabulous Nails #49

Hi everyone! Today's nail look is a beautiful pastel lilac - lilac is a nail shade favoured among lots of bloggers I follow, and I love it too! I know one of the more popular shades is Essie's Lilacism, but today's choice offers a more purse-friendly option.

This is Revlon Top Speed Nail Enamel in the shade Cloud. I bought this for only 99p from Fragrance Direct (link HERE) which makes it one of the cheapest nail polishes I own! I really like Revlon polishes anyway, but when you can buy them for a fraction of the price online it definitely makes the brand more accessible for everyone (these are £6.99 in store at Boots or Superdrug).

This took three coats to become completely opaque, which isn't good or bad really. The polish dries quite quickly but I always use Sally Hansen Insta Dri top coat anyway just to be on the safe side. This nail look lasted a few days without any chips at all, which is good going by my standards as my nails are in quite bad condition! It's such a pretty shade I always get complimented on it, and I'd imagine it would look amazing with a tan!

Overall I'd recommend this polish to anyone looking for a sweet, simple and pretty polish that is easy to apply and stays put.

Are you a fan of Revlon polishes? Which is your favourite?

Fragrance Direct haul

So a couple of weeks ago I placed an order with Fragrance Direct for the first time - this was prompted by two things! First, the 10% off voucher code I found when I was putting together a weekly Spendthrift Saturday post, and second the excellent quality of the Dainty Doll products I picked up from TK Maxx (post HERE) - I knew there were some more items on FD and placed an order pronto!

Here's what I got:

Sally Hansen Maximum Growth Cuticle Pen - an oldie but a goodie (which I've never reviewed, so review coming soon!) I usually buy this from Boots but it was £1.50 from FD! Click!

I had been lusting after Revlon Top Speed in Cloud for a long, long time - before Christmas I think! I spotted this Matte Suede colour at the same time and because they were only 99p each I couldn't resist picking up both. I haven't worn either yet but Cloud was featured in my Spring Pastels post HERE. FD link for Ruby Ribbon HERE and Cloud HERE.

The two Dainty Doll blushes I picked up were Orange County Girl and Hippy Shake. Since they arrived I've been using both religiously and love them, I'm hoping to get a review up soon! Click HERE to purchase for a crazy £1.99 (while you still can as they keep selling out!)

I picked up Saucy Sailor and It's My Party lipsticks - I've not worn these out yet but swatched they're beautiful, and again only £1.99. Click!

Finally I picked up a black eyeliner pencil (Proud Mary) for 99p!- I've used this and it's not earth shattering but good quality so far. Click.
