Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover

Being a nail varnish addict unfortunately does have its disadvantages. For example, when the time comes to take the varnish off I usually find myself searching the house looking for cotton pads. Then, once I've found the cotton pads, it is more than like I've forgotten to buy some more nail polish remover and so the chipped nails have to stay till I venture to the shops.

When I heard about the new launch from Bourjois I was left feeling excited, maybe my frequent nuisances were about to disappear. The Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover is a little gem!


The little pink pot contains a black sponge with a hole in the middle; the pot is filled with an acetone and paraben free nail varnish remover. You simply stick your finger in the hole and twist it a few times for a few seconds; your nail varnish will have then disappeared. It's quick and easy to do!


Usually, nail polish removers have a very strong and overpowering smell to them. However, this one smells fruity; this leaves your fingers smelling sweet.

The one thing that attracted me to the product was that you don't need to use cotton pads; this is a major plus for me. This removes nail polish a lot quicker than most nail polish removers do, plus I find that with dark colours it can get a little messy. With this product it doesn't!

Obviously glitter polishes are hard to get off anyway, but just spending a few extra seconds removing and the nail is clear of all polish.

This magic product is available from Boots and Superdrug for just £3.99 - an affordable price! This product looks set to last me around three months, not bad for the price.

Will you be purchasing this magic product? Can you recommend any other good nail polish removers?

Nail Jewellery From Nails Inc.

Have you ever wanted to adorn your nails with varnish that looks just like jewels?

Now you can, thanks to the invention of 'nail jewellery'. 


This revolutionary formula comes from the brand Nails Inc, internationally known for creating the hottest colours every season.

Nail jewellery is a nail varnish created with hand cut particles which create faceted fragments, creating an effect reminiscent of little jewels.

I purchased the Burlington Arcade Nail Jewellery, which is the silver version from the nail jewellery range. The other shades available include Royal Arcade (bright blue), Princes Arcade (hot pink) and Piccadilly Arcade (emerald green).

As far as I aware, this product is unique. Although, I'm sure cheaper versions will begin to appear on the market soon.

This product is simple to use and has the ability to create an interesting finish to any plain nail varnish. For a striking and dramatic effect apply a coat of the Burlington Arcade Nail Jewellery to dark colours, as I did. Or, for a more muted design apply to neutral colours. The key to this product is experimenting and finding what works best for you.


Similar to any nail polish, this will begin to chip after a few days. Admittedly, the staying power is better than a normal nail varnish but not as long-lasting as glitter.


Burlington Arcade Nail Jewellery is available online and in selected department stores for £11, which I believe is a small price to pay for a  product that is so versatile, creates an impression and is able to change the look of any outfit.

Do you like this look?
