Stylfile: very gimmicky.  Sorry SurAlan, you didn't nail this one

When I first set eyes on the Stylfile I was a little confused.  "What the frickety frack is that?" I thought.  Of course I phrased it differently in my head.

It's a new nailfile from the winner of the UK Apprentice, Tom Pellereau.  Curved in shape it looked intriguing and I eagerly took it out of its package to have a go.  I scraped it up and down my nails (cos that's what this yoke does - scrape, not gently file) and still remained confused as to its wonders.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong I thought.  Yes, that must be it.  And I returned to You Tube to get a (silent) tutorial on how to work the thing.

But no, I wasn't.  I am actually amazed that this thing won The Apprentice. AMAZED.  It's nothing more than a curvy nailfile.  SurAlan obviously loves it - but does he have long nails that he needs to file on a regular basis?  Or did he just think, "Amazing gimmick, women will go out and buy this in their thousands.  I can get it made in China for 1p and sell it on for £4.99. Ca -ching."  I'm inclined to think the latter.

For more info (and to buy if you want although I beg you not to bother) go to stylfile.com.

If any of you have this already tell me what you think!  Or if you don't have it would you consider buying?
