Update (Monday June 22 at 11:46 pm EDT): Unfortunately, since I haven’t heard from Rhonda, I had to use Rafflecopter to randomly draw a new winner, as per the official giveaway rules. CONGRATULATIONS, MANNY! You’ve won! Please reply to my e-mail within 48 hours to claim your prize.
Update (Monday June 22): I sent another e-mail to Rhonda as a reminder to claim her prize. Rhonda, please reply to that e-mail by tonight at 11:30 pm EDT. As per the rules, if I don’t hear from you by then, unfortunately, I’ll have to choose a new winner.
Edit: Congratulations, Rhonda! You’ve won my China Glaze Baby Beats Micro Mini Set worldwide giveaway! (Please reply to my email within 48 hours to claim your prize.) Thanks to everyone for participating, and stay tuned for more fun giveaways coming soon!
Surprise!
A while back, I purchased the China Glaze Baby Beats Micro Mini Set. Actually, I purchased two sets – one for myself, and one for a giveaway, so that one lucky winner and I could be nail-polish twinsies! 🙂
Not only are the mini bottles really adorable, but I find that the brush is perfect for painting toenails. (Since Sandal Season is right around the corner, it’s the ideal time to experiment with bright shades. But, really, dare to wear loud colours whenever you want. Lacquer is about having fun!)
Since I’m a fan of bold colours, I had to share this cute, collectible set with you. It features six mini bottles of colours from the China Glaze Electric Nights Collection.
I’m opening up the giveaway worldwide this time, so hopefully more of my readers can enter.
Please carefully read the rest of this post because it contains the specifics on how to ensure that your entry qualifies.

I can’t work due to disability, but I do a volunteering thing at one of the local charity shops, and I just found out that I can keep doing it for a while longer! Will be good because everyone that works there are great, and I won’t have to sit around doing nothing at home 🙂
I’m not actually entering the giveaway (I like the colors but I have a feeling other people want this sent more than I do so I’m not going to decrease their chances) but I’m going to share some positive news anyway! I was contacted for the very first time by the PR of a major nail polish company, and they are sending me an entire collection to review! I haven’t actually been marketing my blog very hard lately since I’ve been focusing more on my indie stuff, so this was really exciting and unexpected!
