Giveaway Winner and some cat pictures!

Hey!

I've just picked a winner for my giveaway that I did here.

Before I tell you who's won, here are some pictures of me picking the name -

Maz is away this weekend so I had to draft in some different invigilators :)


Barnaby checking I hadn't missed anyone out.


Bobo overseeing me folding the names into a box.


Both getting distracted briefly.... big wrestling match ensued!


Barnaby double checking that they're all there.


Bobo getting a bit bored of the whole thing.


Distracted again.... 2nd wrestling match ensues....


Ok, they're back to being sensible and ready to find out who has won!


.....and the winner is......


Yay!


Now they can relax and get back to that wrestling....

So the winner is chocaddict! Congratulations! Chocaddict writes a fab blog that you can visit here.
I will be sending the prize to her very soon!

Thank you to everyone who entered!
I will be holding another giveaway very soon. I was going to wait for 300 followers but according to feedburner I've actually gone past that so I can do one whenever now!

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Small Giveaway! *CLOSED*

Hello again! This is my 3rd post today after not posting anything for over a week!

I have been meaning to do this giveaway for ages but various factors have stopped me until now!

It's only a small giveaway but I plan to have a bigger one in the next month or so that will be more of a contest than a giveaway!

A while ago I ordered the first Eyeko nail polish collection. Eyeko very kindly included 3 extra bottles in my order for me to give away.

Here they are -


(L-R) Eyeko Pastel Polish, Saucy Red Polish and Vamp Polish

I personally love them because they are just too cute!! The Vamp polish is actually a very dark blue rather than the black it looks in the picture.

Also along with that I thought I'd chuck in a bottle of Rimmel's Blue Me Away -



I have 2 bottles of it so why not let someone else have it! Personally I think it's more of a purple than a blue...

None of the polishes have been opened or used at all.

Anyone can enter but you must be a follower and answer the following question -

What are the names of my 2 cats? I mention them all the time in my posts so it shouldn't be too difficult to find out :)

Just leave the answer along with your email address in the comments box and I will do a random draw on the 22nd February. If you prefer not to leave your email address in the comments then you can email me your entry to glittermillie@ymail.com.

Good luck and don't forget to keep an eye out for another contest coming up soon!

EDIT: I've just realised that asking the question is a bit pointless when only the first commenter needs to answer it and everyone else can copy!! Hahahah! Duh! Oh well might as well carry on now :)

Winner Announcement!

Hi!


My giveaway is now at an end. I had SO many entries. Thank you so much to everyone who entered and to everyone who spread the word. I hope all my new followers will enjoy reading my blog :)

So on to who has won!

I originally wrote out all the entries and was going to pick one out of a hat but before I started cutting names up I thought I'd have a quick look online to see if their was a 'pick out of a hat' application and there was! So I used that instead.

Here's what happened -

First I entered everyone's name into the program


Then I went to the hat -


Clicked on pick


and got my winner!

So there we have it. Brooke from Getcha Nails Did is the winner! On her entry she said that she'd like the Barry M option so I will be going shopping soon to get those for her! Congratulations Brooke :)

I wish I could give you all a prize but I will definitely be holding some more giveaways soon as I've really enjoyed doing this one and can't wait for Brooke to get her package!

Swatches - Collection 2000 Hot Looks

Hey!

I have been quiet for a few days and that's because I'm giving my nails a break from the constant applying and removing of nail polish! They need to recuperate for a while :)

I didn't want to not post anything for a few days though so I thought I'd show you the swatches of all the new Collection 2000 Hot Looks I own. I've shown you a couple of the colours before but here they all are together -


(L-R) Vixen, Hoola Hoop, Dynasty, BMX Bandit, Button Moon, Show Off, Ninja and Hip Hop.

With flash -


Some close ups-


My personal favourites are Show Off and Vixen but I love all of them really! The only one that I doubt I'd wear out is Hip Hop and that's because I don't think it really suit's my skin tone.

They all apply well in 2 coats apart from Button Moon for some reason! Button Moon needs 3 coats.

I think I'm going to swatch all my Barry M nail paints next to show you all! Maybe whoever win's my giveaway may see a colour or 2 that they particularly like ;)

Speaking of my giveaway, I'm amazed at how many entries I've had so far! There was a part of me that was worried that no-one would enter! I'm so happy that so many have and I hope whovever wins loves the prize!

Doing the giveaway has gained me lots more followers so hi to you guys and I hope you continue to read and enjoy my blog once the giveaway is over.
I am loving the giveaway so far so I will definitely be doing more in the future!

That's all from me today! Hope everyone is having a good weekend. I'm off to cook roast chicken for dinner! YUM! :)

50+ Followers Giveaway! CLOSED


Hey!

Finally here is the giveaway post :)

There is only one rule - you must be a follower of this blog and leave a comment below.

I've thought a lot about the prizes and as I've said previously, I can't get too many things but I hope some of you will want what I've come up with :)

Originally I was going to buy the items to giveaway first but then I thought it might be nicer to give people more of a choice so the prize is as follows -

5 x Barry M Nail Paints plus a few extra bits and bobs

OR

1 x Illamasqua Nail Polish plus a few extra bits and bobs

The reason I've given 2 options is that I wanted to give an option that might appeal to my fellow UK bloggers more than the Barry M as obviously it's easy to get here! Of course if you're an international follower and would prefer the Illamasqua then that's fine too!

If you win then I will contact you asking what your favourite colours are and I will choose your prize based on that. I'd like to say that you can choose specific things but I can't guarantee that they'd be available in the shops when I go.

I hope I haven't made this too complicated....

To enter please leave a comment below telling me which option you would choose for a prize.

To get an extra entry follow me on twitter and tweet about this giveaway.

To get 3 extra entries mention this giveaway in your blog.

I will do a random draw on 9th September to pick the winner.

Good Luck and I hope you like this giveaway!
