The first Giveaway/Nail Art Competition I won!

I am so so so glad that my random nail art had scored it’s place in the competition.

I am refering to the Giveaway cum Nail Art competition with the the of Mothers Day in the month of May by Nikita from little green heart.

She wanted to have a giveaway for her blog, and since Mother’s Day was just around the corner, she decided to have a contest as well.

Refer here: http://lilgreenheart.blogspot.com/2012/04/giveaway-mothers-day-theme-nail-art.html

I decided to join, just randomly, without having any hope of winning. I did a pink gradient nail art with pink heart stones. It is so not me to do pink nails, as I am not a person who favors pink.

Nevertheless, this is what I did:

p20120423-163837  which won the CONSOLATION price. I must say, at first there was not a place/prize for consolation, but hey, Nikita changed her mind and decided to give me a consolation prize!

Thanks a lot Nikita!!

Anyway, let’s get to the prizes!

Nikita generously sent me some wonderful nail polishes, neatly packed in a see-through container.

I am mad at the postman though. According to my mum ( I was not around when the parcel arrived, I am currently based in Penang), the postman just chucked/dumped or better still ‘baling’ the parcel! Thank God nothing was broken, just the container was dented quite badly. When my mum told me bout that irresponsible postman, I was worried bout the package, and the moment I saw that everything was in a tip top condition, I was just more that happy!

That’s how it came, and there was a sweet little piece of note attached together with the cute stuff. Can you see the damage on the container and it’s cover?

The sweet little note from dearest Nikita :)

And now the content! That’s the most exciting part, don’t we all agree?

The array of the content. I had the same feeling as you guys, what’s that inside the napkin, beautifully wrapped and secured with pink ribbons?

The first one had this:

A forest green nail polish with shimmery finish. It reminds me a lot of Maybelline Eyestudio Vivid and Smooth Eye Liner in Forest Green. Isn’t the tiny stone detail on the bottle makes it look glamour-ish?

The second one, held my favourite color of all! Plus, it’s from Etude House!

I never shopped in Etude House before, thinking that they have products only for fair-skinned people. I never knew that they have this kind of ah-may-zing colors! I am definitely checking out their store the next time I hit Berjaya Times Square in KL. I am yet to try any of the nail polishes, but I can bet I am going to super-love this particular polish!! <3

I received this gradient nail polish set in silver+black. It comes with the instruction on how to get it done. I did gradient nails before using the sponging technique, and this time I can get shimmery gradient nails from this set without much hassle :)

The instruction.

Next,

A whole set of purple nail colors. I am not sure if this is the crack nail polish set or just a normal nail polish set, but the timely arrival of this parcel saved my cash actually, since I am actually eyeing to get a nice purple nail polish :D

The best part of this color combo?

It comes with a toe-separator! Awesome combo!

 

Again, I’d like to thank Nikita for her lovely giveaway and this oh-so-awesome gifts!

I’d like Nikita to know that I had been reading her blog since I first joined the blogging world.

My first post which I actually ‘borrowed’ her picture from her blog :

Much hearts and love!
