I’m reopening this contest since our previous winner was outside of the United States.
As a reminder – Winners must be in the USA. The weight plus two aerosole products makes shipping outside the US too expensive (particularly for the value of the products.) I’m sorry!
New end date:
OPI nail polish 20 Candles on My Cake swatch is what we’re kicking swatch sundays off with. It’s a basic cream berry shade.
Alright – since I’ve got a lot of content and I’m having a hard time finding time to get some of this online I’ve decided I’m going to start with something simple and start posting “swatch sundays” posts.
I have a LOT of old OPI nail polished swatched and prepped …
…so I’m going to start off with those and hopefully get some other things into the mix as well. They’ll likely be fairly simple posts primarily made of photos.
Zoya is again running their “3 Free” promo, this time with a twist, they will have an additional personalized promo code for …. something… that they’ll send out on the 15th if you use the three free promo code. Details on the extra something: http://zoyanailpolish.blogspot.com/2014/01/color-your-world-bonus.html
I’m a sucker for this deal and have taken advantage of it before in 2011, and 2013 so this time I ordered Coco, Brigitte and Normani.
I’m in the mood for some good neutral shades. Since Brigitte and Normani are part of their “Zoya Naturel Collection” it might take a little extra time for me to get my order (as these gave me warnings in the shopping cart about being backordered.)
If anyone is curious which Zoya Nail Polishes I already own (Loredana and Poppy are missing from this list because they no longer sell these shades):

Remember how I mentioned that I give away the items that I get that I know I can’t use? There are things I’m allergic or react to so I can’t try them even so I simply leave them sealed and give them away. I’ve filled another Birchbox box full of goodies so it’s that time again. Since a lot of the items had to do with winter skin care or a healthy glow, I decided to call this one winter warrior.
