Kittys Drawings

Hi All!
Hope you all had a happy Easter! I gorged on lots of food. Not much chocolate though surprisingly. I’m probably the biggest anti-traditionalist you’ll ever meet, so the standard “family” holidays aren’t my bag. Especially since I’m an “orphan” in that my folks live interstate. And so do my boyfriend’s folks.  So while most people chow down at family lunches around these times of year, I’m hanging out with friends or just The BF – which is awesome.
Family is great – and mine are particularly cool, but I never had the whole extended family thing – cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, you-know-the-drill, being an immigrant and all (does anyone else think that’s a funny word?)…so all my life the holiday seasons have been enjoyed with the special family you choose, friends! Yay!

ANYWAY – Onto the draw. I didn’t get many entries, and that’s okay! Means better chances to WIN. So thanks to Random.org I got these results:

Those winners are:

I will try and track down emails for you guys tomorrow, but if you want to speedy the process you can email me at kittysdrawings (at) gmail (dot) com – send me your address and I will post out the prizes ASAP. Yay!

Other things: I’ve been doing some sewing. Still mega behind on showing you my finished projects! I whipped up a gathered skirt yesterday which in terms of sewing skillz, is actually neatly done…BUT – I don’t think I like the style that much. It may have been the top I was trying it on with….Regardless, its casual and comfy enough for the Esz Resort Collection (teehee).
Two patterns also arrived today which will become part of the Collection, and I’ve started cutting one already. It’s a 50′s wrap dress which doesn’t look that tricky but there’s lots of pieces and lots of facings so it might take me a while.
I also finished a simple light purple round neck blouse. It’s quite nice…..but….I dont think I’ve got anything to match with purple yet. Must remedy that.

SO MUCH TO DO!
Ack! Better get back to it.

Byyyyeeeeee

Hi All

Okay so here is my mini giveaway.

I have two sets of Simple samples to give away. They consist of:

• Eye Make-Up remover 50ml
• Hydrating Light Moisturiser 50ml

Yay!
All you have to do to enter is leave a comment.

• One entry per person.
• If you share on Facebook or Twitter, leave me an extra comment with a link to your post and you get an extra entry.
• Open to Aussie residents only

So…whats the story? I’ve always done market research type things cos I love blabbering about stuff and getting paid for it. Or getting free stuff. I signed up for this promo a while ago and forgot about it pretty quickly. Then I got a slip in the mail saying I had a parcel to pick up and I was mightily confused since I wasn’t waiting on any packages. My bf picked the parcel up from the PO on Friday and says “Its pretty heavy what is it?”. Turns out, they sent me a big box of samples with a letter saying to share them. So share I will. It’s only fair

As for my opinions on the products. I tried them last night and this morning and they’re not too bad. They’re designed to be okay for sensitive skin which is a plus. My skin goes spazzo at the weirdest things and these have no perfumes or colours which is a good start. The eye-makeup remover did a pretty good job of getting rid of my gel eyeliner and mascara leaving no panda eyes in the morning. It’s not one of those oil based ones either. The moisturiser was light and quite nice but overall, I don’t think I’ll be replacing my Aesop with it as yet. Time will tell!

There it is – get your comments in and I will draw the winner in a week from now, on Saturday the 16th of April.

EDIT: Oh and don’t worry, I won’t be “selling out” on this blog hehe. I have extreme reservations about any kind of advertising – hence why I don’t have any ads here. This won’t become a frequent feature on here. Even now I’m having doubts about posting this as I don’t want people to think I’ll spruik anything just because I got it for free. Hmm…thoughts? Do you guys mind me posting this?

Seeyas!
