Sadly, my nail caught and broke. I'm thankful that it wasn't a clean break as this gives me a very slight chance of saving it.I was happy to find that I had some left over nail glue and managed a temporary fix. However, what I'm asking...

Yardley isn't a brand  I'd normal go for but I'm glad I had the chance to try them out. I am a big fan of Yardley's packaging - very British and luxurious. They look great in my bathroom! I think this brand is very much associated with older women, I have to admit that this shouldn't...
