So after a rocky start I now pronounce my 1000 follower giveaway OPEN!*hands round balloons, snacks and drinks*When I started my blog back in late 2010 I never thought anyone would read it, let alone over 1000 of you subscribe to it, it honestly makes me look in wonder every day, and I really want to say thank you to you all! I wish I could come give you all a piece of cake and say thank you but sadly that wouldn’t be possible, so I’ve put together this little giveaway, which I hope you will enjoy.I have 3 prizes up for grabs! 1st prize is:

I asked a while back what colour Fox Bag people would like to win, the top colour was red! So first prize gets to walk away with a gorgeous red foxy bag, the second prize in the line-up is some personalised shoes (you won’t be getting the ones in the photo those are mine ALL MINE!!).I came across Buzzy Bee Designs a few weeks back and ordered myself some Doctor Who shoes, I also decided to order another pair which will be made to the winners design, they can be made in any size child or adult, and can feature whatever picture your heart desires, maybe you want to show your love for Harry Potter, Make Up or even have shoes on your shoes! The choice is yours. Have a look at these beauties or check out Buzzy Bee Designs Facebook Page for more ideas.
Plus let them know you are coming from this competition and you can pick up a pair for the special offer price of £18 posted!! (or £15 collected).

Lastly is a surprise, even I’m not sure what it will be yet – only time will tell.2nd prize is:

The second favourite colour was green! So of course my lucky 2nd prize winner will find the amazing green beauty flying towards them, along with a surprise! 3rd Prize is:

Who knows only when it arrives through your letter box will you know.So how can you get your hands on one of these prizes I hear you cry! Well it’s simple. I want you to answer me 2 questions:1. What would you have on your shoes, should you win 1st prize?2. What would you like the surprise to be? Now please don’t be silly with the 2nd question, I don’t want and won’t allow anyone who answers something silly like an Ipad, David Tennant or a trip to the moon. Keep it realistic something it REALLY could be, perhaps your lipsticks running low so you want a new one? A movie is coming out soon that you really want to see so maybe you would like a DVD? Or maybe music or reading is more your style. Because your surprise might include what you have asked for IF you keep it real.Once you have answered the above you will open some other entries you do NOT have to do any of these, they are just there in case you fancy bagging yourself some more tries.Remember to check the T&C before entering, other than that HAVE FUN!

Tanatomicals: The Stick it Where the Sun Does Shine Lip Protector Review.

Posted on August 30, 2012 by Sarah-Louise Bailey

The sun hasn’t been around so much this summer, but that doesn’t mean we don’t need to protect ourselves from those damaging UV Rays, most of us use a moisturiser or foundation that contains an SPF but what about our lips? I know I for one don’t really think about making sure they are protected, even though they are also at risk from the damaging effects. I do however think about keeping them hydrated, soft and supple. So like a moisturiser made for daytime use why can’t we have it all in one?Enter Tanatomicals: The Stick it where the Sun Does Shine – Lip Protector.

Tanatomicals The Stick it where the Sun Does Shine Lip Protector

Containing beeswax and jojoba oil this lip protector helps to protect against the elements while moisturising leaving your lips safe and soft, and with an SPF 30 included you know you are going to be covered in every possible way.As you can probably guess from the tongue in cheek name of this item, Tanatomicals is part of Anatomicals, with products that all have fantastic names (always bound to put a smile on your face), brilliant prices and work superbly they are a brand I go back to over and over again. And I think this lip protector will be one I add to the re-buy list, I love having this type of applicator in my bag, they are easy and quick to use, stay clean and can fit into even the smallest of bags, or even a pocket if need be. It’s kept my lips soft as can be in the daytime, and I can’t praise that fact it includes such a great SPF enough. And how much does it cost for all this protection? Just £3! (5.5g) To grab yourself this little ray of sunshine hop, skip and jump your way over to ASOS now.Do you protect your lips?

*I was sent a product free of charge to try – this however does not effect my opinions which are as always 100% honest.
