remover

Advantages: gets it off
Disadvantages: slowly

...This nail polish remover costs just over £1 which i suppose isnt bad for a large bottle like this but i dont think it is very good, dont get me wrong it will remove your nail varnish but it realy does struggle. My nails were painted a dark plum colour, it had began to chip a bit at the ends of the nails and looked horrid so i brought this nail polish remover to get the rest of it off. The bottle has a screw on lid which obviously you have to open, then i put a piece of cotton wool on the top of the bottle and tiped it quickly upside down and then right side up again there was a circle of nail polish remover on my cotton wool. I rubbed the coton wool up and down my thumb nail and could see the plum colour coming off onto the cotton wool, it was removing it. After doing this the coton wool was covered i plum nail varnish but...

Review of Sainsburys Nail Polish Remover

Removes the stains, allgedly

Advantages: easy to use
Disadvantages: only works 50% of the time...

...dust was removed. I can only assume the two differences are down to the type of stain or the type of carpet. The carpet which didn't work is shortpile and quite thin compared to the one which worked very well. I can't really work out whether I like this product or not. It has definitely worked on one of my carpets and it was easier to use than sprays which take lots of effort to keep pumping the lever and then having to use a separate cloth to scrub into the carpet. It was however quite messy and not very easy to use for someone with small hands. I have given this product 3 stars as it has definitely done the job it said it would on one of the two carpets at least and I did prefer it to other brands I have used. I am, however, disappointed that it didn't work on both. I paid £4.99 for this and I'm not sure how long it will...

Nair Hair Removal

Advantages: Removes some hair, leaves your skin soft
Disadvantages: Doesnt remove all hairs, Smells bad, Costs alot for one hair removal session

...About I absolutely hate having to take the time to shave my legs, but like almost every other girl in this country its a job that needs to be done, because of my lazyness towards this task I decided to try Nair Sensitive Hair Removal Cream. Price It wasn't cheap to buy at around £6 per bottle which if you think about it is £6 for one shave compared to shaving cream and razors which will last you many shaves. The Smell This cream didn't smell very nice and when I had applied it I was hesitant to keep it on for any longer than the recommended time. Applying Applying this cream wasn't hard and didn't take a long time. You simply apply it to your skin and follow the simple instructions contained that are inside the box. The Results Ok so this cream worked on the thinner hairs of my legs, but the courser ones, which...

Review of Nair Sensitive Hair Remover

Hair removal heaven!

Advantages: Smooth legs, no pain like when shaving, cheap!
Disadvantages: Can take a while to do.

...I unfortunately suffer with extremely sensitive skin and to just shave my legs can be dreadfully painful and leave them red raw; not very attractive to be honest, therefore I have been in search of a hair removal method that isn't quite so painful and that doesn't make my legs look as blotchy. So when I came across the Silkymit gloves I was pretty much willing to try anything and bought a pack to test out. Now I came across these in a Wilkinsons store for just 79p, but I have seen them in plenty of other shops, such as Boots, Superdrug and most leading supermarkets, but obviously the price varies for each one and I think that Wilkinsons has been the cheapest so far. They come in sets of 3 in packaging roughly about the size of a CD case and have instructions printed clearly on the back. Each Silkymit fits on your hand like a glove...

A Wart Remover For Wimps!

Advantages: Removes Warts Painlessly
Disadvantages: Quite Expensive, Can Take Several Weeks To Work

...? Compound W is a specially formulated solution used to treat Warts. It comes in a small plastic bottle containing 6.5ml of liquid, with an applicator that looks a bit like an eye drop. Warts are areas of hard, dry growths on the skin. They are usually harmless but can be quite itchy and they are very unsightly. They can also spread quite easily too, to other areas of the skin or onto other people. These type of Warts on the Skin are known as Plantar Warts and they are caused by a virus called "Papiloma" which is the same virus that causes Genital Warts and has also been linked to Cervical Cancer. Compound W should only ever be used on Plantar Warts, it must never be used on Genital Warts. The Compound W solution is a thick yellow coloured liquid with a very strong smell. Acetone, which is one of main ingredients in Nail Varnish remover...

Dettol Mould & Mildew Remover - It really works!!

Advantages: No scrubbing involved and it really works!
Disadvantages: None

...Every now and then a product comes along that actually does what it promises to do - unlike Cillit bang in my opinion! Dettol Mould and Mildew remover is one of these products that really does work. I first bought this a couple of years back when after spending ages scrubbing small mould marks from my bathroom using various products, I came across this on the supermarket shelves, and bought a bottle. I was so impressed, I have continued to buy it ever since. The price varies as it is sometimes on offer, but I have just paid £2.79 in Morrisons for a large 750ml bottle. I have bought 500ml bottles for under £2.00 previously, but not sure if they are still making these as only the large bottle was on the shelf and it states 'Bigger pack, better value' on the front of the bottle. Dettol Mould & Mildew Remover comes in a plastic bottle...

Bio Tex - remove stubborn stains on clothes

Advantages: Removes tough stains from clothes

...While cooking dinner I managed to get grease stains on my trouser`s there was about four very noticeable stains down one leg, my intention was to throw them out. However while I was doing my weekly shop at the Mace I came across a stain remover called Bio Tex which was in the washing powder aisle, the item cost £1.69, although it could be purchased cheaper elsewhere. About the product The product comes in a 500ml turquoise coloured spray bottle with a yellow and clear coloured spray nozzle, on the front of the bottle it says Bio Tex super spray . This is a Bleach free product and promises to remove ground in dirt and grime. So I decided to buy it in hope that I could remove the stains from my trousers.

Stain Removal Made Easy

Advantages: Easy to use. Cheap. Effective.
Disadvantages: Not available in all shops.

...My boyfriend is a postman and on quite a few occasions he has little accidents! The most recent one ended with blood on his shirt. He trapped his finger in a letterbox and took a chunk of skin off. It wouldn?t stop bleeding and so doing the typical man thing; he wiped it all over his shirt! He then sent me off into town to find a stain-removing product, as my normal washing powder faded it, but never removed it! I headed off to my local Wilkinson?s store and that is were I found this product. It was cheap and one of the stains it can remove that was listed was blood! **********************PACKAGING********************** This product comes in a small plastic bottle. The bottle is white in colour with a pastel green label, all the way around it. It has a green screw on lid. The label that covers this bottle gives you all...

Review of Dylon Stain Remover

Cutex Nail Polish Remover... kind to your nails not nasty!

Advantages: Kind to nails, quick and easy to use, not to harsh a smell comes off!
Disadvantages: None that I have found

...When it comes to taking my nail varnish off I have a few ?must haves?. The nail varnish remove must be quick, when I say quickly what I mean is I need the nail varnish to be removed with easy, rather than having to scrub away at my nails. I also like the nail varnish remover to be kind to my nails. I appreciate that nail varnish remover will have to contain certain chemicals to be able to remove the nail varnish but not so that is damages my nails in the process. With all of these factors in mind I am very careful over what nail varnish removers I buy. I have seen shops own brands before and because the price is low I must admit to be being tempted but I always end up being loyal to the Cutex brand I think Cutex is one of the most well known brands on nail varnish remover, I remember my mum using it to remove her nail varnish so I...

Review of Cutex Nail Polish Remover

hair remover

Advantages: none
Disadvantages: didnt work

...Boots hair removing cream is packaged in a cardboard box which has full instructions on it and inside you have a tube containing the cream, It cost me about £2 and as i have used a lot of creams in the past i thought why not. You are supposed to spread the cream over the area you want the hair removing from in a even layer, not too thick but not too thin, about 1.5 cm thick will do nicely, i didnt try too hard to get the cream even and smooth as this is near impossible but just made certain i had a good coverage of it all over my legs. You have to leave it on for 5 minutes according to the box, i used the sensative cream as my skin is very sensative, a bit like me. After 5 minutes i removed a small area of the cream to make certain that it had worked, no it hadnt, my hairs were still there. This is the problem i have you see...
