Oh My Gooooddddd I am so excited to be presenting this giveaway to you my followers you have been good to me and I love so many of your blogs and enjoy supporting ya'll the way have supported me!

but now it's our chance to give back,

I love seeing the giveaways that are like good for the soul and I think that donating to this foundation is definantly going to be good for the soul!!!

I chose the Vh1 Save the Music Foundation because I love music being one of my followers you would know that by my random music/nail posts but I think one of the most important types of music is the music they teach to the kids in schools and slowly but surely the music and arts are being cut from schools.

Well, now we can do our part to fight back!!!

I played the viola and Chello in school and have a brother who played the clarinet and I would hate for kids today not to be able to have that same escape and emotional outlet I had when I was younger.

So, Here's the details

My giveaway is going to consist of 2 seperate prizes. The set of 3 Flakies, Black Expressionism, and 1Gram of Spectraflair will be one lucky winner out of ALL my followers you know what that means it will be International  (YaY)!!

The 2nd Prize is for those who donate ONE lucky donator chosen at random by rafflecopter so I need you to say yes on that option and I will need you to either forward me the confirmation email or a screenshot of the confirmed payment to my email

Now your probably wondering why does she have a crock pot and food on a nail polish blog well what had happen was I recieved a text message from my lovely polish gilfriend Heather last Wednesday asking me if I was awake well at noon Im not awake lol... but I got up and checked the mail to my surprise there were 2 huge boxes  whis is the top picture you see with the crock pot so to my *tear filled surprise* yes I cried Heather and about 16 other girls got together and pitched in for everything you see here I have to maintain a strict gluten free diet and they were so nice and surprised me with things I need and really can't get my hands on

**FLAKIES* *COMPARISON* *POST** Essie GOSH and FingerPaints

I am rather excited for today's post I am in love with flakies and my biggest flakie lemming is Inglot 204 but thats not what we're here for tonight tonight I have for you a comparison post on 

Essie Shine of The Times, GOSH Rainbow, and FingerPaints Flashy 

Shine of The Times is on my forefinger

Rainbow is on my middlefinger

and 

Flashy is on my ringfinger

and for right now I will let the pictures speak for them selves

 Flashy, Rainbow Shine of The Times

  Flashy, Rainbow Shine of The Times

 Top: Shine of The Times

Middle: Rainbow

Bottom: Flashy

 Shine of The Times, Rainbow, Flashy

So if you notice Flashy isn't as dense as Rainbow or Shine of The Times but as far as color change goes and being amazing on the nail they are al the same I took all these pictures with no flash because I could catch the full beauty of each of these polishes like I said previously I looove flakies so I don't mind owning all of them I also added my Hard Cand Matte-ly in Love top coat and I have to admit I love flakies even more when they have been mattefied even the gilded glitter from Nyx girls I have on my nails now is Mattefied =0D

So now that you have indulged in all their glory let me know what you think

and guess what....

oh hell don't guess I'll just tell you

ENROUTE TO ME ARE SOME SPECIAL POLISHES AND OTHER AMAZINGNESS FOR A GIVEAWAY!!!

Now this is going to be a very special giveaway hopefully everything follows through like I am planning so that I can help with something that means most to me so 

STAY TUNED EVERYBODY!!!

All colors were opaque in 2 coats except for Daddy's Girl it still had slight VNL but the color is such a beautiful purple it's they are all generally very opaque and and 2 coaters and they have Nail Art Stripers also I love the 2 I have here and plan to purchase more
