Zoya Giveaway Winner!

I love having giveaways, hence the recent slew of the them. Besides actually giving something away I enjoy the whole process...

Compiling the names, checking to make sure that those who enter are in fact following my blog, and finally checking tweets. Once that is done I put everyone's name on a list and print it out. Then,  I get to cut out all the names and fold them up--I *really* do love this part, it is something about the soothing monotony of it all. Finally, I throw all the folded names in a glass jar, toss them up, and have the hubby pull a name (I feel that it's all a bit more fair that way). 


Congratulations to our winner:


Thank you to everyone who entered! 


Coming up this week: 
Swatches and reviews of the China Glaze Halloween Collection and a giveaway for their Haunting set!
Also, I'll be having a twitter giveaway coming up this week. Follow me @szuchnic and enter when I tweet about it!

***CLOSED*** Zoya Color Lock System Giveaway! (winner announced Monday)

This system from Zoya is still pretty new to me but it has been quite impressive. The 'Color Lock System' comes with everything you need to keep your nail polish drying faster, staying longer, and perfecting your overall nail look. This kit includes:



1 - 8oz Zoya Remove Plus in the Big Flipper Container
1 - 0.5oz Zoya Anchor Base Coat
1 - 0.5oz Zoya Get Even Ridge Filling Base Coat
1 - 0.5oz Zoya Zoya Armor Top Coat
1 - 0.5oz Zoya Fast Drops Polish Drying Drops
1 - 0.5oz Zoya Renew Nail Polish Rejuvinator

The kit comes in a zip-lock handle bag with instructions on its use.
Value: $48 USD

My favorite product in this kit is the Remove Plus and it's Big Flipper container--if you've ever used it you know what I mean! The scent is unlike any nail polish remover and it is both gentle and effective. The other product from this kit that I find invaluable is the Fast Drops; perfect for when you need to get out the door.
