One week left to enter my Giveaway!

That's right, just one more week left!

The original giveaway post is here with rules and prizes and all that kind of shizz.

Please do enter, whether you're brand new to my blog or one of my older followers it'd be great to have some more entries :)

Eep! A ramble, and a giveaway reminder!

I know I've been a little quiet lately, I've been having trouble getting excited enough about any of the posts I had lined up to write you a decent one ;)

Anyway, I just had a quick look on statcounter and was so excited to see that the amount of page views I'm getting on days when I don't post, is now at the level that I considered a really great day (with 2 posts!) just a couple of weeks ago! Lovely to have some more of you reading!

I have a NOTD post for you tomorrow, I have to wait for the natural light to get a decent photo, it's my first time with a nail art brush and so I'm still getting used to it.. Am sure it'll improve in time! I wanted to try these out before going for the nail art/striping set from ebay to make sure I'd use them, no point having them around taking up space if I don't use them! See what I mean about having a wishlist/plan... for the month and then totally ignoring it ;)

Anyway, enough of my rambling, new post up for you tomorrow lovelies!

Don't forget that my giveaway ends on the 9th July which is 2 weeks time.. I've gained lots of followers since I put it up but surprisingly few entries, I'd love to see more of you entering, especially those of you who are old time followers :)

Giveaway reminder!

A week in from when I first announced my giveaway I've had over 20 new followers (thank youuu lovely girlies!) and 13 entries, very few are from new followers so if you're interested then the picture on the left will take you to my giveaway post to enter... Nothing complex ;)

A little giveaway for youu!

To celebrate having reached 50 lovely followers I'm having a giveaway :)

The rules differ slightly from the usual as I don't want this to be something that makes people follow me with no intention of reading again, but just cos of the FREE STUFF! ;)
You're most welcome (and I will of course appreciate it hugely!) to follow me if you like my blog though! It just won't affect whether you can enter or not.

1. You do not have to be a follower to enter this giveaway. HOWEVER, I will not be accepting entries from anyone who I suspect has created their account purely for the purpose of entering giveaways and my decisions will be final regarding this :)

2. To enter the giveaway once leave me a comment that includes "enter me" in it! 

3. To gain two entries tweet about my giveaway on Twitter, don't forget to @ me so I can see it, and a comment saying that you've done that would be great!

4. To get three entries link to my blog using the picture below in your sidebar, or blog about my giveaway. Once you've done this please leave me a comment saying so, with a link to your blog.

5. Yes, I'll be checking that all the above are complied with, I'm not a total numpty! ;)

6. The giveaway ends in 4 weeks time, at 12am (midnight!) on Friday the 9th of July. Entries posted after this time won't be counted. The winner will be chosen using Random.Org (unless I decide I can't work out how to do that.. In which case I'll pull names out of a hat... Or something like a hat.) and will be announced either on the 10th or 11th.

7. It may take up to 2 weeks for me to get the prizes posted out to you as I don't always find it very easy to get out and about, but I'll try my very hardest to get them to you as soon as possible, they'll most likely be in your grubby paws within a week or so  :)

8. Open to those in the UK only, sorry!

Onto the prizes! The winner of the giveaway will receive:

*L'Oreal Telescopic mascara in very dark brown, I LOVE this, so I thought it was only right I put it in here!*

*ELF Studio Eyebrow Kit in medium (I reckon this would suit most eyebrows, you'd have to apply with a lighter or heavier hand if you're they're not medium eyebrows!) If you tell me that you're willing to wait for your prizes then you can choose the colour yourself, as I like to try and only buy when they have free delivery codes (it's £3 extra in the giveaway fund!)*

*ELF duo eyeshadow in Olive... or, if you tell me that you're willing to wait then you can choose the colour.*

*Sweet Loveheart plasters*

*Polka Dot Bangle set from Dorothy Perkins!*

*Your choice of up to 2 nail polishes (from Boots or Superdrug!) up to a total value of £7. You're welcome to mix and match from different brands, or have just one more expensive one, however you want to do it! If you're chosen as the winner I'll need your top three colour choices in case they're sold out or unavailable, so get thinking!*

*Your choice of three items from the Make Up Academy from Superdrug*

Obviously anything that's your choice I haven't bought yet, so I've used products I own myself in the picture!

I don't need colour choices from you just yet, that's something I'll be robbing from the winner when I announce it!

Good luck to you all, and thank you so much to all my amazing followers :)
