Wednesday Wants #20 + Spending Ban Update

Hello!
My spending ban has been hard this week...for some reason, there are so many lovely products around that I have wanted to buy! I am only 40 days in (not even half way through!) , and I am hoping that by making this wishlist, it will get rid of my temptations to buy them! Not sure how that will work, but fingers crossed ;)

First up, OPI's Nail Envy. This is on the pricy side, at £18.65 from Boots, but I know alot of people say this has saved their nails. My nails tend to get to a certain length, stop growing, get really weak, then start peeling and breaking! It's not great. 
Next, Collection (not collection 2000 anymore!), Cream Puff's. These look like lipglosses, but have a more moisturising, cream texture, and they dry quite matte. I particularly like the colour of Angel delight, but they're all lovely, and smell delicious. I first heard about these through reading Jennie's blog, and they look gorgeous on her :) These are £2.99 (bargain!) from Boots.

Lastly, the River Island 'black high shine tube pants'. I've been really lusting after a pair of AA Disco Pants, but I just can't stretch to that much (£70!!) on one pair of trousers! I've heard from a few people that these are a good dupe, and the £30 price tag makes them all the more attractive :)

So that's what I've been lusting after this week! Anyone have any of these things? 
Also, does anyone have any Disco Pant type trousers?! I'm not sure what kind of thing I would be able to wear with them..any suggestions welcome! 
Thanks for reading! :)

  1. I really want to try nail envy but I just can't justify the price. Good luck with the rest of your spending ban :) x

  2. I have Nail Envy, got it on Ebay as a twin pack with a topcoat for £18, so have a look there cos you'll probs find it cheaper.
    I use it everyday on the tips of my nails & it keeps them strong& less likely to snap/break.
    I also have the bright pink Cream Puff lip thingy! it's gorgeous, my favourite lip product atm :)
    annd I really wanna try those RI pants on! I sound like I'm sucking up don't I haha good choice though lovely!
