Text of the page (random words):
4 and a size 6 this is a massive necklace so id have probably been better ordering the smaller version as it just looks so cheap and tacky at the standard carrie size i gave up trying to polish the fingerprints off for the photograph as it was flexing too much and i didn t want it to break photograph taken with 5p peice next to it see how thin the gold is it seriously is the thickness of a piece of paper so what am i going to do yep return it now for the best part the 20 restocking fee by the time i ll have paid for special delivery i will be over 20 out of pocket for nothing i ll admit its all probably stupidity on my part for starters i ordered a 16 inch then changed my mind i would have been happy with the 16 inch but thought i should try and change it if i could so no big deal there but it did bring it to my attention just how dire their customer service department is so from that point on i already had a bad taste in my mouth about it all the restocking fee my stupidity again i guess ive ordered plenty in the past and returned unwanted unsuitable items and never paid a restocking fee so it didn t occur to me to check their policy regarding returns before ordering so learn from my mistake there and consider the restocking fee especially if ordering the more expensive gold necklaces i d also suggest you check out the reviews online re this company some people have had a terrible time trying to get their refunds and if my experience with their c s was anything to go by then i fully appreciate why on the other hand of course lots of people have been pretty happy with my name necklace for some it might be worth noting that the necklaces also come from israel i stupidly assumed it was an english company manufacturer because of the co uk website now im not bashing this company by any means i just want to give my opinion in the hopes it will help someone else avoid similar mistakes perhaps the lady i spoke to was a one off the rest of their team may be lovely ive also seen plenty of reviews of the necklaces and seen the photos of them being worn and they do look nice on other people but mine isn t what i thought it would be at all in person its just horrible and in most cases of the reviews ive read theres no re stocking issues because they were given a free necklace i hope this is helpful to someone posted by nikki at 05 26 30 comments friday 8 october 2010 chanel paradoxal nail polish dupe a few months ago everyone was rushing out to buy barry m mushroom when it was discovered it was pretty similar to chanel s particuliere but i think ive discovered another my blog post a few days ago which included the new barry m dusky mauve was actually the first time i d applied it properly but after seeing it on the nail something was bugging me now i don t own any chanel nail polish for me the barry m polishes are right up my street in terms of price but if you google chanels paradoxal or if you ve already seen it in some beauty blogs you ll probably see what i see just how similar they are paradoxal is a really pretty colour for autumn winter its a beautiful purple grey mauve yeah im terrible at descriptions so courtesy of google here it is and here is barry m s dusky mauve not bad eh i know paradoxal appears to be more purple toned where as the dusky mauve is more grey toned but its certainly not bad for 2 95 instead of the 16 50 price tag on the chanel what do you think try it for yourself posted by nikki at 03 00 6 comments wednesday 6 october 2010 liz earle cleanse polish about 2 weeks ago i was on my own my fiance was working i was bored out of my tree i had far too much time on my hands and there was nothing on tv but during my channel hopping i came across the beauty day on qvc yep the dreaded people there that could sell ice to an eskimo suckered me in i went for item 212054 the cleanse polish and tonic set this is priced at 24 52 and was spread out over 4 payments the set comprises of the cleanse polish 100ml and the skin tonic 200ml 2 muslin cloths and a waterproof bag picture taken from qvc com i apologise for the stock photo but a no one wants to see my manky muslin cloths and b well i ll get to that later in my defense i d been wanting to try the cleanse and polish for a long time probably even before i purchased my clarisonic but the easy pay option made it seem like a good idea to try it plus i thought about their 30 day money back guarantee i didn t have much to lose the first thing i noticed as do many was the smell notice how i said smell there rather than scent i hated it what i do like is that it smells of eucalyptus that always evokes thought of cleanliness and germ fighting but i really didn t care for the scent of any of the other ingredients the tonic does that smell any better to me that smells even worse i was expecting some uplifting fresh summer scent but instead i got something the smelled sort of old fashioned and ever so slightly musty i was really surprised that i didn t love the scent of this as so many people have raved about how lovely it is sadly i didn t find myself agreeing with them at all 0 did i see any results nope not any positive ones anyway i used it each night i took off the majority of my make up with a boots botanics cleanser then applied the cleanse polish did the whole hot cloth jobby patted my face dry then went ahead with the toner over time upon waking up i expected to see something maybe some brightening of the skin perhaps fewer blemishes maybe a more even tone smaller pores just something instead i woke up to more and more spots that got steadily worse over time now i know sometimes your skin will get worse before it gets better that was certainly the case with the clarisonic but what i consistently noticed was that the cleanse polish never got my skin totally clean this is probably the biggest factor in why i don t want to see it to the end of the bottle i switched cleansers in the hopes it would take off more makeup beforehand i applied two pumps of the c p instead of one i was more thorough with the muslin cloth nothing i tried got my face as clean as the clarisonic does each time i go over my skin with a cottol wool ball and toner i see my face is clean theres no residue or any trace of makeup but with the c p there was always some grime left behind ewww i hated that that and the fact it took lots of the toner to remove it what a pain i also dislike that i feel i have to run the muslin cloth through a wash cycle before each use thats just something i can t be doing with again with the clarisonic i just rinse off the soap after use then spritz with a dettol solution afterwards and bam clean for the next use op i don t like that theres cocoa butter in amongst the ingredients either i believe its the next ingredient after water i don t feel that most people with oily spot prone skin actually want or need something as rich as cocoa butter on their face i m not sure of the amount thats inside this but to me its a pretty heavy moisturizer for oily skins it makes me wonder if liz earle and her people are working on something lighter perhaps more deeper cleansing for us oily peeps i don t know if this is a marmite thing you either love it or you hate it but i definitely hate it with a passion i normally hate qvc too the rubbish they spout sometimes is truly laughable and im sure some of them live in la la land for example a 100 set of cotton sheets is a good teachers present to say thanks alrighty then but on this occasion i m glad i purchased it via qvc because i will be making full use of their 30 day returns policy on this one which brings me onto the other reason for the stock photo reason b that i don t have it to show you as its currently packaged up and ready to go back so sadly this didn t work for me and i really didn t get the hype about it at all 0 i still wouldn t advise anyone not to give it a go as always what doesn t work at all for one person may well work wonders for someone else have you tried it do you love it or hate it posted by nikki at 08 57 labels clarisonic cleanse and polish liz earle 2 comments tuesday 5 october 2010 nail paints for autumn winter i have many many barry m nail paints far too many infact i just think theyre incredible value for money as they come in really pretty colours they apply really well and can last for anywhere up to a week if applied properly if you dont get bored of it first that is i bought 3 from the ice cream collection the strawberry one looking suspiciously similar to the previous pale pink one but anyhoo i have to say i didn t touch any of them this summer i did however pick up the latest editions the instant nail effects at 3 95 and dusky mauve at 2 95 i love looking at all the pretty colours on people and i think that women with perfectly manicured nails look really well put together i on the other hand am just terrible at applying it i look at the pretty bottles in my case paw them then close the lid nail polish and blending eyeshadows are a very scary prospect for me but i have vowed to keep trying and hopefully get much better at it so i have picked out 5 colours for autumn winter left to right 293 grey 313 dusky mauve new 310 mushroom 115 red black 129 chocolate brown apologies in advance for a couple of these being out of focus it wasn t till the last few pictures that i figured out what i was doing wrong durrrr this is 293 grey i feel this is coming up more blue toned on the nails than it is in r l i m not sure what it will appear as on your computer screens but its a lovely true grey you can get away with one with this what i do find is that some of the nail paints seem thicker in consistency and ever so slightly harder to work with this is one of them this is dusky mauve only released about a fortnight ago on the website i believe hopefully you can see the purple shot through it its one from the mud family a lovely grey brown mauve it really is a beautiful multi toned polish i m pretty sure we all saw this weeks and weeks ago but i think its a nice colour for autumn esp if wearing the darker colours just aren t your thing this one will be a nice colour for dare i say it the christmas parties its a lovely deep red colour that with more coats 3 does turn to its namesake red black this is one of the more sheer easy to apply colours its not one of the one coat wonders a factor that i actually like because i find it easier to work with and last but not least perhaps one that doesn t stand out for most people is chocolate brown a lovely chocolate brown funny that again this is one of those that i find a little bit gloopy and harder to apply but on the plus side a one coat wonder all are priced at 2 95 each and can be purchased from the barry m website here what will you be wearing this autumn winter posted by nikki at 06 34 7 comments sunday 3 october 2010 live xxl color b4 hair dye disasters about 2 months ago i decided i just wanted a change with my hair did this come at a time when my hair wasn t doing as it was told or maybe at a time where the colour just looked horrible no so why oh why did i do it i have no idea i just decided one day that i wanted a change i was pretty happy with my hair at the time the dark brown had lifted to a summery light brown it was long enough to wear it wavy like i love to wear it i think what i was looking for was to lift it a little more or perhaps to add some highlights so one day whilst out shopping with my mr i began looking at the hair colour aisle i browsed the colours and just couldnt decide jokingly i pointed to a box of live color xxl with the brightest red id ever seen then a little voice piped up do it go on you should do it red never one to pass up on a challenge i picked it from the shelf worryingly asked are you sure then stuck it in the basket and paid that evening i applied it i figured if i waited i would no doubt chicken out the last time i dyed my hair red was when i was 18 i actually liked the look of red hair id been mahogany copper rich red any shade of red i no doubt tried back then but the one thing i always found was that it never really lasted it just faded so quick and in the end i got bored of re colouring every couple of weeks of course it was also pretty damaging to my hair another thing i found was that it never ever gave anything close to the colour on the box so i wasn t expecting anything different with the live xxl but actually i was wrong this came out the most brightest red i d ever been pretty close to the colour on the box the first 2 days of this my hair was a lovely vibrant red colour after that it all went downhill they aren t kidding when they say this is waterproofed the silicone in this baby was here to stay it was already fading on the ends but on the roots to mid lengths it just wasn t shifting so the top of my hair was a rich red shade the ends were orange yet nothing i did seemed to make it look ok even putting my hair up made it ovbious there was a bad home colour situation going on think orange ponytail against deep red roots yeah horrible i basically tried everything in the book lemon juice mixed with conditioner and left on my hair for an hour out of desperation i tried pure lemon juice i also tried vo5 hot oil treatment i tried washing with anti dandruff but none of these were shifting the colour the roots were red the rest was orange and thats just the way it was staying i started looking online for other suggestions then found the colour b4 i was worried about putting a colour stripper on my hair how damaging does that sound i d also read about the ginger tones that your hair was likely to be left with yet the more i thought about it the more i had to do it i wanted this orange gone and fast off to boots i toddled picked up the colour b4 in extra strength due to the silicone in the xxl and an ash blonde nice easy 24 wash dye in boots a big one at that the 24 washes was all they had there were no 8 wash dyes so i figured the 24 would have to do apparently theres no peroxide in the 8 wash dye and thats what you need so i never actually used the 24 wash one yet it was needed as a back up incase i was left with ronald mcdonald hair i followed the lengthly instructions on the colour b4 i spent an age in the bathroom that day unfortunately i have no pictures of my hair with the red or after the colour b4 so i guess you ll just have to trust me but what i was left with a gingery light brown blonde colour something i was prepared for infact i was prepared for it not to work at all so i was quite suprised that it had taken out all the red and some previous colours too when i spotted the gingery tones in the mirror i remembered i had a john frieda violet based conditioner somewhere in the depths of my bathroom cabinet i dug it out slapped a load on and left it on for about 15 20 mins this actually helped quite a bit in taking out some of the brassiness a few more applications over the next few days helped a lot too i did dash out...
