ReplyDeleteThanks so much for these wonderful contests you guys have. Can't get points for Twitter because I don't do Twitter. Sorry
ReplyDeleteMy favorite posts is the one about the nail polishes you loved most this year.
ReplyDeleteYour Halloween spiders are a hit with me! I love them! :)
ReplyDeleteI loved your holiday plaid tutorial
ReplyDeleteWow, I love so many of your posts, it's hard to chose one. Off the top (and after a quick refresher search) I'll say this one: http://www.lacquerologist.com/2012/07/zoya-nyfw-2012-comparisons.html (comparisons)
ReplyDeleteI chose it because I always like when bloggers do comparisons between different brands. It really helps so I don't get a bunch of the same (or very similar) colors in my stash, and gives us ideas for cheaper or easier-to-find options. But I do love all your nail art ideas! Thanks!
Really nice prizes!!! I never tried BB Couture or Barielle.
ReplyDeletesuch a great giveaway!
ReplyDeletethank you for this giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI like summer neons splatter tutorial :)

ReplyDeleteMy favorite is your favorite manicures for 2012!!! Also Thanks so much for this fabulous giveaway. Your products are awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteI am so excited for you! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteAs for a favorite... ooh, how do you choose. There are numerous, but the color club halo hues was fantastic, and the 2012 faces was awesome. You have been a great source of info, tutorials, techniques and polish colors that work.
I'm a big fan of the kaviar manis from 4-13-12. That whole ordeal was absolutely ridiculous on the part of the "inventing company" and I absolutely LOVE how the nail community rose against them and had their own day. (Plus, your nails looked awesome.)

All you nail arts are so fabulous! And since I can't even do a simple French mani, I'm fascinated by how you do it! And so neatly too. Choosing one favourite post is a really tough task...but if I had to select it would be a tie between the red Christmas sweater, snowflakes and Christmas plaid.
ReplyDeleteI love all of your tutorials, but my favorite is the summer neon splatter ones!
