Ooooh pressies!

As a present for surviving exams and starting my new job, my boyfriend ordered me some goodies from Sick for Cute! I love this site, its full of cute goodies to buy. This is my little present haul below :)

A dino magnet, a pretty pink rose headband, a pink cherry necklace and a pair of hair grips (apple and cherry). The mermaid magnet was free with my order. :)

ASOS sent out an email yesterday that there was free next day delivery until 6pm. I had had my eye on the pastel pink Models Own nail polish for awhile and was going to nip to Boots this weekend, but I thought free next day delivery and an excuse not to raid town on a horrible Saturday sounded good! I bought the Models Own polish in Pastel Pink, Batiste dry shampoo in brunette and a cute little bow ring. I used the dry shampoo this morning and I was very pleasantly surprised. I’ve never used any dry shampoo before and I just thought I’d give it a go as I normally have to wash my hair every morning. I sprayed it all over, brushed it out, instant non greasy hair, very happy, especially for in the summer!

On top of all this I had one of those dreaded red “Sorry you weren’t in” cards from the postman, so I had to do the horrible trip to the post sorting centre. I hate that journey, it’s hot, polluted and frankly, depression to look at! I also had no idea what the parcel was. I am expecting my full sized Meow order soon, but I thought it was too quick to be that. I was handed a mysterious brown, podgy envelope and when I opened it I remembered I’ll order some cuticle remover. I had seen a voucher code for free delivery on Nails Etc blog and ordered some and completely forgot I’d done it. Aren’t the Nfu.Oh bottles cute though?!

I have never used a cuticle remover before and I’m a bit of a scaredy cat about it. I won’t have a manicure at the beauticians, and I sit cringing when I have a pedicure and she gets out the cuticle pusher. I have to closed my eyes and pretend it’s not happening! I don’t know what it is about it, but it really grates on me :s I’m going to build myself up to it today though and paint my nails with my new pastel pink…if I ever work up enough courage!

Update: I’m annoyed! My Models Own polish has no brush! :/ I used the cuticle remover, it was easy and not at all scary! I put on a dvd, put on base coat, opened my pink…no brush! Bah! :(

  1. I love free delivery. It’s starting to become more widespread and I applaud that trend. Would love me some Fuoh. Not cuticle remover though. ;o)

  2. I saw some lovely reviews of Nfu-Oh polishes (holos/opals esp.), but when I was ordering there was hardly anything left in stock apart from the really boring standard colours, maybe it was the last day of the sale. They have more lovely colours in now though, but I must behave! :)
