Haul!

I always forget to post up my hauls, but I did take a picture of my winnings from the giveaway that I won from Nail Addicts Anonymous

How fun is that?? Some lemmings fulfilled right here folks: Shower Together and Tree Hugger are now mine, Jade is the New Black, oh yeah. Sno Cone? You betcha! The Essies are all so pretty, I wouldn't have picked them myself, but now that I have them, wow...so pretty! And Awaken? Sweet! Lemon Fizz? Almost a complete set of Up and Away. Mint Mojito is pretty too as are the other two blues from ChG who's names escape as I type this.

I have already swatched a couple of the Essies, so you'll see those in a few posts.

I love Giveaways and I'm currently putting together a rather large one in honor of my 200 follower mark.
I have a question: Any one have an issue with a combined winnings package including new and never used polish as well as one time swatched? (usually just on one nail...I've been swatching and culling to reduce my overgrown stash and my polishes need a happy home.

Let me know your thoughts PLEASE!

I Feel Good, dununununununuh!

Thanks for the well wishes, I'm better now, not completely, but on the upswing most definitely.

Goodness! I have so much catching up to do!!! Where to start???
I know, Hauls!
I won the Zoya haul giveaway from Scandalously Polished and when it arrived, in my excitement of checking out the colors and finding room in my stash box, I neglected to take a photo so click HERE to see what I won there. Unfortunately, a couple of the bottles broke prior to shipping so I got some other polishes instead...and since I didn't photograph it on arrival...I don't remember. I am so sorry Ange-Marie, but I thank you so much for increasing my Zoya supply! I don't know if you've read some of the tips for Zoya lately, but after searching madly for the last 40 mins to link to them here, I cannot find them. *sigh*

Shortly after that win, I won April and Ashley's first follower giveaway over at Concrete and Nail Polish and you can see their photo of it here or just looky here:

I haven't used anything but the eyeshadows so far, but they'll get used in due time. I've got so much to go thru before I get to my winnings! Thank you April and Ashley and Ange-Marie! I'm on a bit of a contest/giveaway hiatus while I go through what I have and reduce my collection...I have way too many right now. (I am aware that many of you consider that blasphemy, but I have a very limited space and have completely outgrown the small, then expanded and expanded again space I gave myself...time to rein it in!)

I had some fun at a friends a couple weekends ago, I took my entire stash to her place and after she went through about 20+ polishes she finally decided on Zoya Anaka for her toes. I did my best, which wasn't too great, and then I did a little nail art, at her request...and I must say, I need PRACTICE!!! (You can click the pics to make them bigger.)

 

I don't know how many of you remember a while back I was having a polishing party with my co-workers and the lady who's toes you see above... After the party, one of the ladies had to head back to South Carolina (she works for us remotely, VERY remotely), but before she left, I took her to the Del Sol Store where we purchased some polish for her and her daughter to play with when she arrived home. A few days later, I received these:

That's one happy little girl. :) And I'm happy to have been a small part of that. :) Look at that smile!

Well, that's all I have for now, stay tuned, so much more to come!
