If you didn't know already I have been hosting a giveaway due to me reaching 150 followers. Thank you to all of you who read JollyBeachAng. The fact that people enjoy reading my rambles makes my day!

xAllDolledUp
Congratulations xAllDolledUp. I shall be emailing you soon for your mailing address. I'm sorry for those of you who didn't win this time... there will be another give away in the near future - perhaps when I reach 400 followers?
Thanks again for being brilliant, loyal jolly followers :-)
What a good way to start the new year... like the title suggests I'm holding a giveaway.
To do a giveaway reaching only 150 followers some might think is a little odd. But for me personally it's a mile stone. 2012 has been the year of the blog, as I have posted more than I ever have since I started in 2010. I had always said to myself when I got to 150, to celebrate I would host a giveaway. And here it is.
So if you enter and your name is picked, you'll win all of this...
Wow!!!!
The Batiste Wild Party Trio and the Nails Inc In the Spot Light Trio are pretty self-explanatory, however it's what is inside the Victoria's Secret Makeup bag that is the amazing part.
Lots of pink inside!
.
All these goodies inside the bag are items I've used and blogged about (with the exception of one).
So like what you see and would like to win all of this... keep reading to find out how!
The rules and how to enter:
1... Leave a comment below and say what you'd like to see more of in 2013. You can only do that once... (just to be fair)
2... You have to follow my blog via GFC
3... You'll have more chances of winning if you tweet about the giveaway. Just make sure you mention me (@jollybeachang) in the tweet itself so I know you've done so.
4... Leave a twitter/email address so I can contact you
5... International giveaway
You have until 8pm Sunday 27 January 2013 to enter. A winner will be chosen at random using random.org and the goodies will be mailed on the following Monday.
Congratulation, sorry to those of you who didn’t win but better luck next time.I’ve always said when I reach 100 followers I’d have a give away then :-D I'm slowing getting there!
Sugarpuffish I’ll be sending you an email and a Tweet shortly.
If you read back on my previous post you'll know I accidentally picked up two of the same polish at a recent event. So to share the Nails Inc love I'm going to give away!
If you win you receive a brand new bottle of Porchester Road which is worth £11. It is simply the best colour ever.
This is my bottle, yours will be untouched
The give away will end on Sunday 20th May. I will contact you that day requesting your details of where to send the polish. Don't be scared to enter . . . it doesn't matter where you live, if you win I will send to you. But the moon is a little to far to send this :-D
The rules:
You have to follow me by GFC on my blog and enter a comment and tell me what your favourite polish is.
Leave your twitter/email info. so if you win I can contact you.
You can only comment once, however if you tweet about the giveaway (be sure to include @jollybeachang so I know) or mention it on your blog - let me know you have done so because that will enter you again.
As you know I attended an Nails Inc event last week. The lovely people there let us choose 10 polishes to take away with us. This is what I picked up.
Notice anything odd in this picture . . .?
I picked up some fabulous shades which I'm really happy about, there isn't one polish here I don't like. The Neon polishes are so funky and fresh. Great colours for summer . . . whenever it arrives!
Blue: Kensington Park Road, Pink: Notting Hill Gate,
Orange/Yellow: Westbourne Grove and Purple: Holland Park.
The Neon Collection is so much fun, especially for spring/summer. Which is slightly more fun with these neon colours are they react under neon lighting, so you will truly be glowing. So if your off clubbing you will talk of the evening with your nails.
The swatches are beautiful I achieved these by just two coats. However on Kensington Park Road (blue) I've added the Nails Inc Jewellery polish Royal Arcade which is a cool. A very summery combo indeed.
Nail Jewellery Royal Arcade and Black Taxi
Following the Royal Arcade combination above, I also teamed it with Black Taxi. This turns a plain boring black into something more stylish.
Royal Arcade alone, Royal Arcade over Black Taxi and Black Taxi alone
Now I show above that I picked up a Magnetic polish in the shade Soho, but I'm going to do a separate post on that. I also managed to bag these two below, which are my favourites. I love everything I got but these are just something special.
Porchester Square and Haymarket
Porchester Square has been given Hero Shade stamp approval. Hero Shade literally means one of Nails Inc's best selling polishes. The muted mushroom beige-gray-taupe is something every girl should own. Every girl should also own Haymarket which is basically a Tiffany box squeezed into a bottle.
I love duck egg blue colours I think they are so lovely. Both these shades are so fashionable.
Porchester Square on the nails
Now if you noticed in my group photo at the beginning of the post I had two of the Porchester Square polishes. Yes I overly keen and accidentally picked up two. . .doh! Now I could keep it for myself, but I thought I would share the Porchester love and give it away. My next post shall explain all the details.
So the results are in for my Eyeko give away!! So sorry they are late.
Up for grabs were some great goodies...T-Shirt, Eye Liners, Lip Glosses Nail Polish to mention a few!
I had 14 entries! Thank you all so much for entering. So the winner picked at random with the help of Random.Org is.....
Drum roll please......
Heather!!!
Congratulations to you!! I’ll send you an email soon asking for your address to send the goodies.
One thing I failed to mention when I posted the original blog post about this give away is that i was given quite a few goodies! So much so that I secretly decided without telling you all that there’d be a second prize winner!!! Yes really!!
So second place goes to......
Sarah!!!!!
Well done to you both, emails will be sent soon!!!!
Last Saturday I had the privilege to be invited to Eyeko’s 10 Year Birthday Party. I have to admit when I got the call at work about this, I was completely in ‘work zone/mood’ and my first thoughts were; who, what, when??? Then my brain eventually got in gear. I said yes, as I’ve never been given the opportunity of attending a Blogger/YouTube event before.
So on a wet miserable Saturday evening i made my way to Islington’s Wentlock & Essex Bar on the Essex Road. I admit walking into a place where I’d know no one, was kind a like the first day of school or at a new job. When people got there you you're given a super cute canvas goodie bag containing Eyeko products. But before you get let in any further your asked to sign a giant canvas. I signed 'I heart Eyeko, love Ang'. Seemed the right thing to write :-)
The venue was super cute, just the right atmosphere for this kind of gathering. The dance area had lighting up squares...
All in all it was a great night. I got my nails painted in Rain polish and my Tarot cards got read. I had a chance to talk to some of the Eyeko creators and staff. Nina, Ling, Larissa. The worst thing about the night, i never had a Lola cupcake. They were all eaten while I was with the Tarot lady :-)
This is the makeup/hair and nail painting area and right at the back was a lovely lady reading Tarot!
So my goodie bag wasn’t over flowing, the canvas bag is far too big to get filled to the brim. I did get some super cool bits, their new nail polishes, mascara, liners, glosses. Some of the bits in the bag I already owned so I thought I might as well do a give away and share the Eyeko love. I did intend to do my first give away when I reached 50 followers, which is a little far off.... but 30 followers isn’t too bad!!!!
The rules are; you must be a follower of my blog and you must comment to this post. Simple as really! Please don’t forget to post you name and email so I can contact you if you win. Winners will be chosen at random on www.random.org. The give away will run for one month, so the winner will be announced on Thursday 11th November at 12.30 GMT. Any one from any country can enter, if you're living in the North Pole or on the Moon...I will ship to you :-)
So if you are lucky enough to win, what will you win?? One lucky person will win this..
T-Shirt, stickers, nail polish, 3 x glosses, 2 x pencil and 2 x graffti liners, 2 x makeup wipes
The T-Shirt is a bit small, I would have kept it for myself but since I have a boobage getting in the way I couldn't really wear it. So as I couldn't model it for you I asked someone very special to help. Introducing my Hubby!
You'll be winning the T-Shirt only, model not included. Sorry!
So thats it everyone, good luck. If you want to spread the word on your blog please do :-) If you make a Eyeko purchase please enter my Ambassador code E10322 you'll get a free gift if you spend over a certain amount.
