The £1 Wonder: Primark's Nail Varnish Remover Twist Pot

Always being one to try out the latest beauty hype or gizmo, I was especially grateful to be greeted by a little nail varnish remover pot sitting in my room when I returned back to High Wycombe for a visit. My mum, knowing my deep-running nail varnish obsession, had lovingly bought it for me to try out. Not having tried much of Primark's 'P.S Love' beauty range, I was sceptical about the quality of the product but definitely couldn't argue with the £1 price.

The twist pot consists of a sponge pre-soaked with nail varnish remover. You simply dip your finger into the pot, twist and wiggle it around a bit, and the nail varnish comes straight off. It really is as simple as that; it takes off your nail varnish within a few seconds, and doesn't leave your nails stained at all (something I was worried about for a product so cheap).

The remover is quite harsh, but does not dry your nails, cuticles or fingers out any more than your regular nail varnish remover. I have also tested this little pot with glitter nail varnish too; while it does take a little longer, it still works a treat. In fact, it's probably the easiest and least time-consuming way of taking off glitter varnish I have found so far; there's no waiting around with tin-foil on your fingers (the classic trick), or getting cotton wool stuck on your nail!

I was worried that I'd love this product just because it's so cheap, but it is genuinely something worth picking up. It's quick, efficient, and quite simply, a great product. Plus, the all-in-one pot is incredibly handy if you're off on any travels; it can be used over again with no worries of it spilling. Primark have truly created a winner with this twist pot, and is definitely something from their beauty range that is worth getting (even if other products seem dubious).

Would you give this nail varnish remover pot a go? What else do you like from the Primark beauty range?
