The winner is...

I almost forgot that I had a giveaway going on, but I finally picked a winner. :party Something less than 100 entries, some didn't read simple rules so their entries were invalid.. Oh well. :i The winner of BPS $18 Gift Card is...

You were lucky #35. ^_^

I'll send you an e-mail right now, so please check your e-mails, you have 48 hours to respond or I'll have to pick another winner. :)

2nd Blogoversary Giveaway *CLOSED*

First I'd like to tell that my keyboard is broken atm, so my next posts will probably be short as possible, because this screen keypad I'm using now is time-consuming. :/

Second, I'd like to thank you for following me here, leaving comments and showing all the support. It means so much to me and I can't believe I'm running this blog for almost 2 years. :e I didn't make a giveaway for a long time, because I want you to be here because you like what I'm showing and not because of the prize. :) And from what I experienced before and saw arround, I think I made the best decision.

 

Since my BPS coupon was used more than 10 times, they decided to sponsor a giveaway I decided to keep it simple. There's just 2 simple obligatory rules - follow me and BPS Official Blog via GFC and no extra entries.
 Edit: You have to follow both to enter not just me. I'm sorry but that's BPS's rule.

The winner will get $18 Gift Card to spend at Born Pretty Store.

All details you need to know are written down in Rafflecopter Google form. Open internationally. Ends on 20 22th June, when my 2nd blogoversary actually is. :party Please fill the Google form to enter. If you have any problems or questions, leave a comment below or send me an e-mail.


Edit: Due to this malware problem I had last two days, I'm extending this giveaway for 2 days. Also I changed Rafflecopter form to Google Form, but all who already entered, I have your entries so you don't need to enter again.

Giveaway is now closed.

Good luck! :)
Xoxo,

Sigma Miss Taylor Kabuki

I almost forgot that my tiny giveaway ended on Monday. Thanks for participating and for your sweet comments. :) It's good to hear from you that you like my blog. :h Some of you didn't left GFC or e-mail, so I thought you didn't want to enter. I had 49 entries, winner's picked by random.org and the winner is:

Anja :party

Congrats dear! :k I already send you e-mail. I know it's summer time and some of you might be on vacation, so I'm giving you a lot of time to reply. :)

Here's what Anja will get, Miss Taylor Retractable Flat Top Kabuki. I got it a while ago and till then I'm using it all the time, when I apply my make up. That's not everyday because I don't like wearing make up on these hot days, usually I wear just mascara and blush. :)

I'm using this brush for applying mineral, liquid and cream foundation. Works great with all! If I'm wearing liquid foundation, I usually apply it with foundation brush or fingers and then I blend it with this flat top kabuki. It gives me such a flawless and smooth application. It's great for mineral foundations too. It picks enough of powder and blend it well. I think I found a favorite brush for foundation. :)
It can be used for bronzer, blush, translucent powder,... but at the moment I use it just for foundation.

I love the purple metallic packaging :L - it's so practical and tiny. :) When I'm on my way to BF's I usually don't take my brushes with me, because I don't want to ruin them in my small cosmetic bag. But with this case you can't ruin the bristles at all. Talking about bristles... They're soooooo soft and very dense, not scratching your face at all.

I washed it quite a few times and it's not sheeding for now, it took some time to dry because bristles are very dense. :)

I didn't try any flat top kabukis till now so I can't compare them with others, but I really love this one and would recommend it to anyone. :)

Which brushes are you using for you make up? I own some from Essence, Bellapiere, Elite and only this one ffom Sigma. :)

Xoxo,

Ivana :k

~* Happy Birthday *~

I can't believe it's one year since I start my blog. :o That's quick though. When I look back - I don't like anything - shape of my nails, pictures, nothing. :) At least I improved my photo skills till today and I'm still improving them. I hope I'll get one decent camera soon. :i

Anyway, 1 year - 110.365 views & 617 followers. All I can say is THANK YOU! Every comment I get makes my day and when I see that new follower joined my blog - it means me a lot. :h

From time to time someone unfollow me, it feels strange, I always think what did I do wrong but hey, I can't be interesting for everyone. :P That's why I'd like to thank all you girls who're staying with me. :)

Joining the blogsphere change my life a bit - of course the number of my nail polishes increased a lot... But I meet so many kind people, who are so friendly, kind and nice to me from all over the world. :) 

  

~*Happy Birthday*~ :party

I didn't make a happy birthday manicure but I've a surprise for you, I'll keep it simple, more after a click. :party

Winner is...

Finally! I worked extra hard to check all entries till now. :D I had 358 valid entries! I love Excel so it wasn't hard to organise all the entries by color too. :D

Some tips: Be precisely when you're entering your GFC name, if you have/don't have a space in your name or dots and everything like this... Why? I usually copy the name you wrote down in form and search with browser's order to check if you're my follower. If you miss anything, names don't mach. But for all entries I didn't found for the first time, I checked one by one if I can find anything similar. :) I don't mind getting double entries just because I'm sure I've entered more than once in lots of giveaway just because I can't remember if I already fill the form. :D So, that's just fine.

I used Random.org to pick the winner. Enough talking, the winner of my 2nd tiny miny giveaway is #5:

TINCHI
