One of two pharmacies in Dunmurry, it really begs the question (or rather, questions)…read more.. 1) Why are these two pharmacies so close together, separated only by a few shops? 2) Why is it called Irwin's Medical Hall? I think I have the answer to both. Bear with me. In answer to the first question, both pharmacies are very different. Irwin's is a much more traditional chemist, with cleaning products, a wider range of toiletries, and shelves filled with little bargainous goodies. Kingsway is a bit more like a discount pharmacy, but I'll let you read the review on it. In answer to the second, it's long, narrow and, well, hall-like really. Clever, huh? I thought so.* Picked up a couple of packets of makeup wipes (99p, but they're good...honestly), whilst my sister decided to nearly wreck the whole shop while hoking through a pile of makeup. The sales lady and I had a wee joke about it, and we escaped before the sis did any more damage. *Ps. I know it doesn't explain the Irwin's bit. That's beside the point.

I went in for hairspray. I very nearly left with the entire shop…read more It was cheap. Really cheap. Like, dirt cheap. And they had a little basket filled with wonderful make-up goodies. Oooh, I goodied too. It's at times like this that I realise how very similar my sister and I are (in some ways), as we were very nearly fighting over what we wanted. There was some really decent stuff - Bourjois eyeshadows and nail varnishes, eyeliners, Rimmel foundations, and all half price! I picked up a navy Bourjois nail varnish (price = £2.70) and automatically had to have it. My sister picked up a purple eyeliner, and the following conversation ensued: Sister: Ooooh, purple eyeliner! It's soooo cool! Me: Eh, are you really gonna wear that? Sister: Probably not. At this stage, we figured it was probably *not* a good idea to pursue any more makeup, so I took my nail varnish and hairspray to the till. Naturally, you'll want to keep Kingsway a secret. I'll never let on if you don't...
