'Tis the season to be jolly! So, who’s up for a Festive Giveaway?

THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED - THANKS TO EVERYONE WHO ENTERED!!!!

Fa la la la la, la la la la!  Howdy everyone. :-h  Yes, I really do think 'It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go' they’re counting down each day and waiting for the magical sleigh, with Santa Claus and his jolly ho, ho!.  ;)  I’m well and truly into the Festive spirit this year and I LOVE  :x  the joy that generosity sparks when it comes to gift-giving.  With that in mind, I decided to incorporate the good-will tradition into my blog and offer a Festive Giveaway.  *-:)   This way I can do my bit to help spread some ‘holiday cheer’ and ‘share the love’ with one lucky reader.  >:D<  It’s also the ideal opportunity to divulge how eternally grateful and humbled I am for the overwhelming support I have been given since I started my blog this year.  On that note, I believe a Giveaway is the perfect celebration to wrap up 2011, while we speculate on the brighter prospects and goals that we're aspiring toward as we go forth into 2012!  <:-P

My Christmas Tree

So, what's included in the Festive Giveaway?

I have a cupboard literally bursting at the seams with loads of brand spanking new, unopened and unused beauty products that were screaming out to go to a good home.  :-O  I personally hand picked the best of the best from this stash, so I could proffer a variety of mixed beauty booty, which I think should, favourably, appeal to the majority of my audience; all of YOU guys!  ;)  Then, eventually, I hope my Festive Giveaway serves the purpose I had in mind, to spoil someone special and lavish them with an array of gifts that aim to kindle a bit of joy and happiness, along with the reassurance in knowing they are equip with a selection of popular and useful beauty items to kick-start the New Year!  :D
