CLOSED - 100 Follower Giveaway MUA Undressed Palette and Lip Booms!

Wow I can't believe I have 100 followers! 
Thank you so much for reading my little blog and I hope you enjoy reading my posts.

My giveaway prizes are;

The new 12 shade Undressed Palette from MUA.

 This newly released palette is a great dupe for the Urban Decay Naked Palette (love the cheeky spin on the name!)

 A fabulous addition to the MUA palette family, this one is the ultimate must have.  It has a great combination of nude shimmers and mattes and the colour selection is great for creating this season's clean, natural look with highly pigmented colours.  Undressed is bang on trend with the spring summer runway filled with nude makeup looks.



 2 Lip Booms - OK (top) and OMG

Created with Alexandra Burke by MUA!!

Lipstick and highlighting gloss that creates fuller curvaceous lips for a dramatic illusion of volume.

There are 4 amazing ways to transform your lips and give them some Boom!
1. Lipstick alone for a matte look.
2. Lipstick with highlighter applied just to the centre of your lips to create a full volume illusion.
3. Lipstick with highlighter all over for a super-glossy look.
4. Highlighter alone for a sheer pearl finish.

Rules:

You must follow my blog by using either Hello Cotton or GFC
This giveway is only open to residents of the UK
Please comment with tips on how I could improve my blog - your comment is your entry into the giveaway.
Please add your email address to your comment so that I can contact you if you are the lucky winner!

    I would suggest making your background fixed when scrolling, as when you scroll it is a little distracting!

    Hi Jo! How about a 'top 3' series? E.g. your top 3 lipsticks, shadows, foundations etc. if you don't have masses of make up you could do a best of series with just one item in each category? Fab prizes! Mez :) x

    Hey :) I'm new to your blog but having a look around the only thing I can think of as an improvement is the colour of your labels against the background. They don't stand at out as well as they could :).
    Thankyou for the giveaway and good luck everyone

    *fingers crossed*

    Fab blog too... maybe, as others have suggested, book reviews would be a good idea... especially as I know you're a book worm. Maybe The Pickle Book could be your first!!! ;)

    My tips to improve would be to consistently add prices on all the products mentions in each blogpost because in some of them, they are not stated. It would also be wonderful if there were pictures of swatches so the reader can have a better idea of the colours if they are interested. The giveaway is amazingg btw!

    this is such a lovely giveaway!:') i've only recently started following your blog, on bloglovin though but i do now follow on gfc too(a), and i do really enjoy reading it:) i love how there's a total range of posts, like not just cosmetics so it makes to even more interesting to read. to improve maybe do more individual product reviews as i think its always nice to hear what others think before you go and buy it yourself, and then maybe a monthly favourite post?
    thanks for the opportunity!
