Softsole Foot Peel





I am currently trying out the Softisole Foot Peel. Well not technically trying. I started the process last night! I did the patch test 48 hrs before. If you haven't heard about it. Its a foot peel to remove dry cracked skin and soften calluses. I don't have bad feet but I was dying to try it out since my feet hadn't being the best since wearing wellie's during the summer. I thought I would give them a treat!!

1st step is wash feet and take off nail polish
2nd step apply Softsole foot wraps (its like a foot shaped plastic bag) and there is socks to use to keep the wraps on and that if you need to walk.
3rd step wait 120 Mins (stick on a good film because it can get boring)
4th step wash feet and in 3-7 days peeling will start to happen, It says that it take around 2 weeks for the peeling to completely stop. After that time they included a After peel Moisturiser.

I can't wait to see the results. But hate hate flaky skin. Will report back with my results.
Price wise its not too cheap €19.99 and I got mine in Hickeys Pharmacy in Henry street. I haven't seen it in any other pharmacies or even boots.

Hope ya have a great night

NOTD: Bourjois so laque in Rouge Casino


Sorry for the messy paint job I painted them last night at 2 in the morning. This is my 1st time painting all my nails in this colour. It's more of red orange I thought it was gonna be more blood red. No chips so far I did some cleaning today (ok so just checked and have 2 chips) It says that it should last 7 days!! not a chance of this.

I did a couple of colour's on my nails for when I went to Oxegen. I couldn't decide what to wear and its not that easy to keep changing your nails every day. I did find it chipped on the one finger as well.

It wouldn't be a polish that would last a whole week so just for how easy it chips I wouldn't recommend it.

Bargain of Today

I popped into Boots on Henry street today for something for my sister and I stopped a stand beside the till with some things on Clearance. I had a look though the stuff and found these. A Boots Floral Berry shower cap for 50 Cent and a bottle of Vichy 3 in 1 Calming Cleansing Micellar Solution For €1.50 ( I know couldn't believe it).

It can be used to 1. Cleanse, 2. Removes Make up, 3. Soothes. I haven't used any Vichy products before but for that price you cant go wrong. I came home and took off my make up to give it a try ;-). Instructions are just to use a cotton pad and no need to rinse off. So that's what I did. I used 3 pads back and front and it took off my mascara as well. I would probably need more pads for a night time make up. So far happy with my bargains.

Some pics to show you, Hope the pads aren't too bad but just for examples :-)

Rimmel 60 second Vinyl Shine Nail Polish


I have this nail polish years we have to be talking 10 yrs or more. It has being sitting with my other nail polish for ages and I opened it look inside it and it had got a bit thick so I put a couple of drops of nail polish remover and ta da. I could use it again. I have it on the past 3 days and its not chipped yet. Very surprised as it was just a quick 2 coats and one clear coat. did I mention that it dries in 60 seconds!! The Colour is 808 shocker.I would recommend this nail polish for the coverage and for the speed it dries. Must check out more of these polishes.

Garnier ultra lift challenge


I had sent away for the Garnier ultra lift challenge a couple of weeks ago and completely forgot about it. It arrived in the post yesterday. Included in the little pack is 14 sachets of the Ultra lift Anti-wrinkle firming cream for Day, a wrinkle reader and a £1/€1 off Coupon off any Ultra lift products .

I have to say at the age of 27 I'm not very wrinkly only when I smile I get some lines under my eye's. I decided that I would try it at night instead of day because I use sun cream and foundation on my face every day and I would feel like I have too much on. The wrinkle reader doesn't really work for me so thought I would show you my eye Day 1.

I use the cream last night and it was nice. I did feel like it gave my face a warm feeling at first but that didn't last long. It didn't make my face shiny either so that was good.

I will let you know when I'm finished. Has anyone else tried it.


p.s please excuse the terrible looking eyes brows I'm waiting to wax them.
