Barry M Competition Win | Glamour Magazine Win & Freebie

The other day I got an email to say I'd won the salon Barry M game. It came by complete surprise and huge shock because I wasn't in the top ten high scores, I can barely make 3000 points on that game - only occasionally doing so. And the high score I believe by comments was almost 19,000 wowzer! When they emailed me asking for my address and that I had in fact won, I email back 'really?' I honestly didn't believe it. Turns out Barry M had changed the rules of the game, where everyone who had got over 1000 points was put into a prize draw and I just happened to be the person that came out as a winner. For me I'm really glad the rules have changed, it is a tough game and 1000 is manageable but before it was hard to be in the top ten with only a selected few being in now it gives everyone a fair chance. You can play the game over on the Barry M facebook where you will find the tab - be warned it is fun, addictive before it was highly frustrating but now it will just be fun due to the rule change. If you play which I now won't be I wish you luck. Well the prize came today and this is what I won. Be warned it is picture heavy.






















I feel extremely fortunate and lucky that have managed to win all these polishes and I really can't wait to share them with you and blog about them. You've probably seen more then half of them around the web and probably own most - I know just how popular Barry M is. I think I'm going to after buy a professional polish shelf/stand I already own 200 polishes and this is another 103 to add to that already big collection. 

I have been very fortunate to win four competitions in the past two weeks - I started my spending ban two weeks ago too so these four wins couldn't have come at a better time because the amount have won will keep me going until August. I was fortunate enough to win 1000euros of Kardashian Make-up including a set of acrylic drawers which will be coming in the next few weeks, due to the time scale the company are sending me some limited edition summer 13 products to due to a few unfortunate problems. I also won the body shop Body butter with Glamour magazine month then today I found this at the door. Instant tan from Collection 2000 another win from the may month of competitions with Glamour magazine. I'm really excited to share with you my thoughts on everything I receive.


I also wanted to share with you the Model Co eye liner pencil that is free with Glamour magazine - June issue. I won this subscription with Loreal Paris back in January so didn't get to choose the free gift because it came through the door but i believe there is 3 or 4 items available to choose from. 

Get ready to expect quite a few nail polish posts and NOTD.


Only 6 hours left to enter my raffle to be in with a chance of winning £50 worth of cosmetics. I'm only £7 away from the £100 mark and I will have doubled my target. Please, please, please help it's all for a good cause. I will be doing my bit and walking 8 miles tomorrow night starting at Midnight. Enter via the Pendleside Hospice tab on the right. Thank you x

I was just thinking I could of looked in last months magazine I have a collection piled up on the table of glamour magazine. I didn't need another eyeliner but oh well. I'm not going to go out and buy a copy for unnecessary stuff I don't need! Being good ;) So I can break my ban to treat myself to a Barry M lipstick. (Treat for completing the midnight walk) xx

    1. It's actually weird to win all these. Because I made a HUGE list before when asos had a sale on Barry M and how much I wanted them but couldn't really justify the costs then I go and win all the shades. I feel so lucky x
