Hi guys!

Sorry I havent posted in long! Im in school right now so im super busy! like crazy busy! I have been able to squeeze in swapping over at MUA: MAKEUPALLEY! its awesome! So far Ive been able to swap with 2 beautiful awesome ladies! =) I should be receiving :China Glaze:Papaya Punch, Essie: Dive Bar, and Maybelline Fierce and Tangy tattoo eyeshadow!!!

Then a wickedly awesome lady from the UK offered to find me HTF polishes in the UK in exchange for sending her items she cannot get in the UK! Pretty stoked because she was able to get me the Twins collection by Essence. Well she was able to find BELLA and CHUCK! Im so excited IVe been wanting those!!!! She looked everywhere for me! I cant wait to have them in on my tips!

Now on to the NOTD! So lately Ive been into blue. Ive been telling myself that I dont want blue but must have blue! I hauled the other day so a review on that coming up but last week I went to Sephora and got Nails Inc: Baker St! Its an unbelievably beautiful cobalt blue! It truly compliments my skin! Im in love with my nails! You can find Nails Inc at Sephora.com and at the stores. Sephora now has a new format where you can check to see if they have the item at the stores which is awesome because saves you time from hoping back and forth from store to store

Here it is!

Raspberry Rouge Chanel Giveaway!

Hello My loves!

Forgive my absence, Ive been away on vacation to SoCal. I have tons of pictures to post of my nails in a segment Id like to introduce called "My Nails Doing This"which is a showcase of my manicure in action! That will be posted shortly.

Right now I wanted to tell you guys about a giveaway from Raspberry Rouge. The lacquers are by Chanel!! yay! who doesnt love Chanel. Below is more information from her site! Im want Orange Fizz, I can see it now applying like a dream! Come on lacquer lovers and join the fun!

 

 

Chanel Giveaway!

To celebrate Raspberry Rouge being a year old and to apologise for being away for quite a large chunk of that year, I thought I'd have a little giveaway. Chanel seemed to be a popular choice last time, so I thought I'd offer something along the same lines. As with last time, I thought it would also be a good idea to let the winner pick their own choice of colour. So, here's what you can win....


A Chanel Nail Colour in the shade of your choice!


If you'd like to enter, please make sure you're following via Google friend Connect, and please leave a comment below telling me which shade you'd choose if you win (you can view the colour choices here). And don't forget to leave an e-mail address so I can contact you if you win.

You can gain an extra entry by posting about the giveaway on your blog, or by tweeting about it. (Please let me know if you do either).

The giveaway is international, so everyone's welcome to enter and the winner will be chosen a month from now on the 23rd of April using random.org.

A big thank you to all of you who take the time to read my ramblings, and thank you for sticking around when I was gone.
