NPC's The Great Polish Giveaway of 2014

Nail POlish Canada is hosting a huge nail polish giveaway (up to 200 shades to one person) sponsored by Cirque Colors, NCLA, and Picture Polish! The prize starts at zero, and every blog that participates gets to nominate one polish to be added to the prize, so of course I agreed to take part. The polish that I chose to be included in the prize is piCture pOlish Tiffany. You can find more details about the giveaway and see the current list of prizes on Nail Polish Canada's giveaway page.

This is my first time using Rafflecopter, so I hope it all goes smoothly!

Here are the badges to share for extra entries!  :)

And The Winner Is...

It's time to announce the winner of my first giveaway!  I felt like having some fun this morning, so instead of a random number generator (boring) I wrote down all the entries, put them in a hat, shook 'em up, and had my sister close her eyes and pick one....

And the winner is....

Congratulations!! I'll be emailing the winner in a few minutes, and she'll have 48 hours to get back to me before I pick another winner.  

I'd say my first giveaway was a success and a lot of fun, and I hope to do more in the future!! :)

100 Follower Giveaway! CLOSED

Yesterday I hit 100 followers and this morning I passed 3000 pageviews, so it's time for a little giveaway! :)

One winner will receive one new bottle of Revlon Whimsical and one new bottle of Revlon Sparkling.  Rules below.  It is open from now until Sunday, July 8th, to followers in Canada and the continental United States!

To enter, just comment below with your email so I can contact the winner.  You must be a follower of my blog (I'll check!).  The giveaway will be open from now until Sunday, July 8th.  At that point I will assign each entry a number based on the order in which you commented, and will use a random number generator to pick the winner.  I will email the winner and they will then have 48 hours to get back to me before I pick another winner.

There will be two entries available per person; you will be given one (1) entry just for commenting and providing your email, and you can gain an additional (1) entry by sharing this giveaway on your Facebook, Twitter, blog, or Instagram.  If you share this giveaway, be sure to include a link  in your comment with your email so that I can verify it.  If you share via Instagram, tag me with @emmaclarem on the photo.

Sorry to all my international followers, but since this is my first giveaway it is only open to Canada and the continental United States.  I hope I can have international giveaways in the future.

I think that's everything, but if you have a question or something isn't clear, send me an email at ecm.dancer@gmail.com.  Good luck! :)

This giveaway is not sponsored and the products were purchased by me specifically for this giveaway.
