The constant use of ‘chic’ has to be satire at this point

Jesus Christ Alex, just buy Cutex like the rest of us. It’s hardly like we have it on show like some bizarre bedroom decoration.

I don’t display my nail polish remover but if I really wanted to (as other said) I would reuse or buy a nice bottle and refil it

What on earth? I’ve literally never considered this. Mine is at the bottom of a box of nail polishes in a drawer. She’s literally got too much time on her hands

I do somewhat agree that it’s nice to have practical items that are also nice looking - chopping boards etc
But duck me nail polish remover? Who would display such an item? I am pretty extra when it comes to beauty storage and mine is stored alongside nail varnish, all in muji acrylic units within a bespoke built in beauty cabinet. I had mine designed that anything like that is on high shelves out of reach of my children. Why would you want that visible?

Why is she so weird??? She hates blow dries? Also she is literally the least frugal person I have on my Instagram. She buys things EVERY DAY and things she already has and doesn’t need. Buying lots of small cheap things that you don’t need is NOT frugality!!!

Alex firmly believes her not very interesting personality quirks (no blowdries! collects matches! eats Pot Noodles!) constitutes an actual personality.
Has she ever had an opinion on something cultural beyond “I went and it was great!” ?

And totally agree about "chic looking nail varnish remover" reading like a parody... but maybe when you have no actual storage in your bathroom (like a mirror cabinet or vanity unit) these things actually matter?

Beyond parody that anyone could give more than a passing thought to what their nail varnish remover looks like (or pay more than a couple of quid for one) - let alone have the time & energy to post about it and then provide updates on feedback received on the issue!!
Also I find the idea of refilling soap bottles etc with cheaper versions quite weird. Of course it’s fine to aspire to have nice things, but this just seems to be born from some desperation to keep up appearances. Certainly not in keeping with a genuinely frugal and considered approach to consumption.
And yes, as mentioned above, the amount of stuff she buys is ridiculous!! Almost every bloody day. That all being said, I do find it quite fascinating to watch it unfold and love the insightful commentary here
