Could Ice Cream and Nail Varnish be an Odder Combo?

Never has there been an odder juxtaposition than video rental and tanning booths - hello Chartbuster. Whoever thought of that one was either a) a marketing genius or b) eh, not a marketing genius.

Now those diet-wrecking folks at Magnum are on a mission to top good auld Chartbusters' long reign of head-scratchingly odd things-that-don't-work-together-in-one-shop, and have teamed up with hip London nail brand nails inc to create a limited edition polish shade. Called, what else? Yup - Magnum. The reasoning? To celebrate their current on-pack promotion to win VIP holliers to swanky places like St Tropez and Monaco. Right so.

While the polish might not be good enough to eat, it's certainly nice enough to adorn my nails. Sparkly, brown and bang on trend, it'll set you back €14 at Brown Thomas Dublin, Cork, Limerick, BT2 Dundrum and www.nailsinc.com, plus, check after the cut for some more special offer info.
