1st Giveaway

Dun Dun Dun.....

I am so excited to be doing my first giveaway. I would love to do giveaways all the time if I could afford it :) This giveaway was for when I reached 40 followers, not much I know, but for 2013 I really want to dedicate more time into my blog and commenting/reading other blogs. For this giveaway I picked up one of my favorite Essie colors and an awesome Essie Luxe Effects. If you haven't tried the Luxe Effects they are awesome. They are a little different than glitter in that they are like pretty sparkly flecks on your nails.


To enter this giveaway is simple-all you have to do is be a follower and leave a comment naming your favorite nail polish shade. I will then pick a winner at random on Monday the 14th. I tried to be all schmancy fancy and use Rafflecopter, but apparently you have to pay for that ish...no thanks!

  1. LOVE the stripes!! I tried that once and it was all weird when I pulled them off. Yours are perfect!! I love them! And I think my fave polish of all time is a two-way tie between China Glaze For Audrey and OPI Russian Navy. Thanks for hosting a giveaway! They're so fun!

  6. There's no way I would have been able to pull off those lines on my own nails - love them!

    I'd say my favorite nail polish right now is Essie Stealing the Scene - it's a great color when you don't have a lot of time to be meticulous because it hides streaks really well. Plus it was perfect for NYE!

  8. Swinging by from the link-up... My favorite nail polish color is currently Essie Ballet Slippers (what can I say, I'm kind-of, sort-of a neutral, basic chick)... BUT, I'm excitedly awaiting the arrival of my new Zoya polishes (which is what I posted about today), I made a tad bit more interesting color choices this time ;) Wishing you a lovely weekend!

    2. They had an amazing promotion going on... just couldn't pass it up! And as a momma of two little ones, the fact that it was a natural, safe polish only validated my purchase! ;)
