wouldn't it be more cost effective to place an order with fragrance direct?

Theoretically, but there's that sad muppet in me that gets a just a little bit excited a few steps from the Poundland entrance in anticipation of what treasures might, just might, be only minutes from discovery and a long and happy future in my possession.... Laughing

I was like that in B&M shop today. Couldn't wait to get to the beauty aisle. Unfortunately they'd already sold out of the cheap rimmel polishes. They did have LOADS of Sally Hansen's but they were crappy colours.

I'm with you there Loola, I just love the treasure hunt. Wink

In Poundland yesterday I bought a bottle of 'Pretty' clear polish with silver holo hearts. This looks to be a cheapie brand probably produced purely for pound/99p shops and the glitters are fairly sparse but I've been after a starting point to pimp from for a while. I reckon with some of the holo glitters from eBay I could end up with something unique and wearable Laughing

. Or a totally hideous mess.
They also had red hearts and pink hearts (non holo), thought it might be useful info for you frankenmeisters!! Very Happy

My local Poundland are selling two polishes in a pack now, I'm guessing the stock they couldn't clear. My mum just came back with about £10 worth, bless her. Very Happy

I have two of these, a red glitter and a black glitter, they're both quite nice.

They have just got the Sally Hansen twin packs in my local but they must be very old stock as most of them had seperated really badly Neutral

I've seen a couple of nice Sally Hansen colours in Boots & Superdrug, but is it really sad of me to begrudge paying £6.99 a bottle?

I really keep hoping the colours I like will turn up in poundland! Razz

Babafette Thu Oct 10, 2013 6:03 am

I did get two Revlons today, but there was nothing much in either store I tried.

My Mum bought me a beautiful Sally Hansen complete salon manicure polish in a dark teal, for full price. Couldn't help thinking "that could have got 6 polishes in Poundland".

Not that I need six new polishes!

Babafette Sat Oct 19, 2013 8:20 am

I think that's half my problem with Poundland - I buy loads of polishes I don't need because I just think 'oh well, it's only a quid...........' geek

Sam Sat Oct 19, 2013 8:38 am

I do that...I'm sure sure I've ever actually used a polish I've bought from there...

TattyScone Wed Nov 06, 2013 11:29 pm

Hmm, so I noticed that my local poundland had the new Revlon Chroma Chameleon polishes in Shocked

I noticed that too. They had loads of colours, but I was restrained and only bought 4. The blue is gorgeous, not very duochrome, but a striking metallic.

SueD Sun Nov 10, 2013 3:52 am

Sod all in my nearest one as per usual! But I don't think I'd wear them so probably just as well!

I would definitely wear them so I'm gutted mine has none. Sad

I've not managed to find any of the Revlon Chroma Chameleons in Poundland yet either. Crying or Very sad

I haven't seen them again - so glad I got all the ones I liked when I had the chance! There have been LLLOOOOOAAADS of the opi shatters in every poundshop I've been in recently though - and even a couple of china glaze shatters in the 99p shop (didn't bother as they were identical to the opi ones that I haven't got round to using yet Smile

)

Has anyone else spotted the Revlon Nail Art French Mix polishes in their Poundland. I got these two: http://twitpic.com/dkztl7 and was chuffed to bits. I'd ogled them a number of times at full price, but thought they were a bit dear. Poundland had loads of different colours in stock.

Haven't seen them in the poundshop, but I've seen them on the market for a couple of quid. Somehow haven't actually bought any...
