The Excitement of Winning a Beauty Giveaway!

I am one of those people who never wins anything or if I do, it would be one of those contests where almost everyone wins! LOL Maybe I just don’t have the luck that everyone else has. But I guess my lucky stars were working overtime a few weeks ago because I actually won my very first beauty giveaway! The excitement that I felt when I received Dawnmichelle’s email informing me about this rather thrilling news is priceless! I guess it’s a normal reaction for one who rarely wins anything!

Today I want to share the excitement that I felt and so I’ll share a peek of the items that’s included on the giveaway. But before we move on I want to say thank you again to Dawnmichelle for these beautiful items! You can check her blog called Makeup or Breakup Blog. She shares beauty reviews, hauls and beauty box unboxing!

Now on to the exciting part!

Colourpop Take Me Home Eyeshadow Palette

These shades are so me so I see myself using this palette on a daily basis. I also love that it’s so handy so I can bring it anywhere.

E.L.F. Cosmetics

This set is such a blessing because it contained my favorite Lip Exfoliator! LOL I did a review about it a few months ago and I’ve mentioned how effective this is so I can’t imagine my lips without it. The lip exfoliator in this set is in “Brown Sugar” which I’ve been wanting to try for a while. Other items from ELF are the Tapered Highlighting Brush, Matte Lip Color in Tea Rose and Berry Sorbet and lastly the Lip Lacquer in Clear.

BH Cosmetics Blushed To go Blush Palette

I haven’t tried any of BH Cosmetics’ makeup so I am excited for this palette. All of the shades are very wearable and would probably match my skin tone.

35M Metal Eyeshadow Palette from CROWN

This is the very first time for me to encounter this brand so I’m really curious about this palette. The shades are again wearable and most are my preferred colors which is really great. I’ve been actually wanting to add a large eyeshadow palette in my collection so now I finally have it! If you noticed, the palette looks dirty mainly because one of the pans broke I believe during transit. Dawnmichelle did a good job on protecting the product by wrapping it up with bubble wrap but it wasn’t probably handled well causing one of the pans to break. I tried to clean it properly but the tiny spaces in between each pans made it a bit difficult.

Sugar & Spice Mini Liquid Lip Trio from Colourpop

This kit contains three shades- Weho which has a glossy finish, Love Bug which has a matte finish and Tough Cookie which has a satin finish.Real Technique’s Makeup Sponge

I am actually using the same sponge right now and I find it very useful so I’m glad I now have a spare sponge!

I also find it so nice and sweet that she included a card! This I guess added a more personal touch to it.

Do you remember the first time you won a beauty giveaway?

xoxo,
