I got lucky, twice! + 5 newbies in my nail polish collection.

So in the space of three days, I've won two competitions! With great prizes may I add.

So Wednesday, Sleek held a 'Get It First' competition on Facebook. You had to answer a few questions and the first 20 won something. I came second and won a 21 piece brush set and roll. This will be out in September to buy and Sleek will be announcing how much it will cost in a few weeks. Up until this year, I never used make up brushes. & now I only use a powder brush and blush brush (From ELF) so I'm excited to use these!
(The word tools is not on the roll)


The second competition I won was today. Accessorize held a RT competition on Twitter and 20 had the chance to win this:

A beautiful bandeau dress worth £30. I was one of the first to RT but I think the winners were selected randomly. 100+ people entered so I wasn't expecting to win. They announced the first 15.. nada, but my name was in the last 5!

And these are what arrived for me in the post today:

17 sent me some nail polishes. They said I could choose some colours I liked and I didn't want to be greedy so chose two: Firecracker and Sea Breeze. The light blue in the picture is the new Catwalk Couture instead of Sea Breeze. They are very similar in colour. They also sent me three more: True Blue, Ruby Dazzle and Royal Indigo. They're all gorgeous!
I gave half of my collection away the other week so was lacking an orange, navy, purple and red so I'm glad I received these colours.

As you can see, most competitions are easy to enter; you only need to click a button on Twitter! so it's definitely worth entering :)

  15. I'm not a huge brush fan and would rather have the contour kit haha but I know a lot of people wanted to win it so I'll definitely be grateful.
