Leighton Denny QVC 20th Anniversary Crystal Nail File*

When I was contacted about sampling some special edition nail products that QVC and brands have created to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the shopping channel, I jumped at the chance!  The first of these products I have to review is a very special Leighton Denny Crystal Nail File (currently £15.48).  I've already said in the past on my blog, the small crystal nail file is my absolute favourite nail file and I won't use anything else.

This special edition file is a whopping 19.5cm (! the original one is 13.5cm) - so it does feel quite different from the smaller one, but it still works beautifully at filing nails smoothly (you can file both ways, unlike with a traditional file where you should just file one way).  It comes in a protective case (because the file is glass, you don't want to drop it!) which is a little plasticy on the inside and can be a bit tricky to get the file out, but this didn't bother me too much as the file is lovely - and I love the pretty purple end (purple because QVC's colour is purple).  Whereas I like to keep a small one (I have two!) in my handbag so I have one at all times, I'll be keeping this one at home because it's a bit on the big side for portability, but it's definitely a welcome addition to my nail care routine.
