Christmas list - appliances and gadgets

13 replies

CandyMcJingles · 29/09/2016 22:24

I'm pondering my Christmas list to give to Santa (DH).

What's the best beauty gadgets out there for £100 or so?

I fancy a gel nail set (uv lamp) - any recommendations.

I doubt I'll get an ipl hair removal system for that budget - I'm also fair skinned, fair haired so not sure if o e would be worth it even if he did splurge? I hate roils toes. I'm 42 and get the odd recurring random hairs on my face that I currently tweezer out.

Are there any other beauty gadgets I should consider for my list?

Dear Santa

I've been ever so good this year.

The years however have not been so good to my now careworn and saggy face, the lumps to my body, the sheen to my nails and the depth of my soul...

Send help.

Thank you,

Yours loyally,
Candy McJingles

I bought my DD this nail kit a couple of years ago - it has had a lot of use www.boots.com/en/SensatioNail-starter-kit-scarlet-red_1407047/

I might get this for myself

Candy yes, that's the one. Except I paid full price for that. Angry
Still worth it but at £39.99 it's a steal.

Thank you for the sensational link - I couldn't remember what it was called! I think it's has good reviews on MN before. When I looked on the boots app I could only see a Rio nail set.

Candy - we have been able to buy the nail varnishes for the set a lot cheaper at The Beauty Outlet at Cheshire Oaks. So if you google the nail colours you should be able to buy them a lot cheaper than the Boots price.

I'm asking Father Christmas for a sonic jewellery cleaner (proper one with a plug not those tinny little battery motors)

I've never even hard of those 70.

I've been on the Sensationail website and sent a link for the raspberry wine starter kit to Santa. DH will be bemused. I've asked for surprises with the rest of the budget. That could mean tea towels again.
