Pearl Giveaway!!!!! CLOSED

It's been quite a while since I've done a giveaway and I do believe y'all deserve one!!

A couple of weeks ago I attended my first Premier Designs party. Have y'all ever been to one or seen their jewelry?? I wasn't expecting much...but the minute I saw the beautiful jewelry I was in LOVE! The best thing about their jewelry is how you can change the necklaces around and get about 10 designs out of them! You can add things, twist them, clip them...etc. Of course I hosted my own party the next week and it was so much fun!

Here are a couple of my favorite items from them!

Main Event Necklace

{regular}

{twisted}

{extended with Pearls Night Out pinned on it}

Opening Night Necklace

{90" long pearl strand...endless possibilities. Okay not endless...but there's a lot!)

{folded in half, twisted and clipped in the back}

{doubled with Pearls Night Out pinned on it}

Okay now for the giveaway!!!!! I'm giving away Alpha, a beautiful pearl bracelet from Premier Designs. It's 7 1/2" with a tounge-in-box closure.

Booty Butter Tanning Lotion

Good morning sweet friends!! I hope y'all are having a great week so far!! I had almost forgot to even tell y'all about this product!! Colleen from Bikini Kitchen contacted me back in June about a product called Booty Butter Tanning Lotion. She sent me 2 small bottles. One to try out and review and one to give away to a reader! I was super excited to try it out!! Here is what she had to say about this product:

We guarantee your readers will see a noticeable difference in their tan in just one hour. Your readers will not only be getting a rocking tan, but they also won't have to spend countless hours to achieve it! Our tanning lotion is so superior that even fairer beach babes can use Booty Butter in conjunction with any type of SPF lotion (highly recommended), and they'll still see amazing results. Say goodbye to fake bake, orange skin and say hello to a natural glow regardless of skin tone.

Booty Butter contains all-natural ingredients from the islands of Hawaii. Its special Hawaiian Kukui Nut Oil speeds up the tanning process, and Kona Coffee extract gives Booty Butter its mouth-watering aroma. Our perfect recipe also includes Macadamia Nut Oil, light mineral oil and Aloe Vera, which blend to create the perfect mix that keep your skin moisturized long after leaving the sun.
 
 
 
 
 

I wished that I had this product when I spent a few days at the beach this summer but it arrived about a week after I got back. I don't spend a whole lot of time in the sun because I'm pretty fair and of course there's that pesky skin cancer...so the next chance I got was while I was in Alabama for the Jimmy Buffett concert. I decided to slather it on before heading to the pool.

 

First of all, it smells SO GOOD!!!!!! I almost wanted to eat it. ALMOST.

 

You have to use quite a bit of it. I don't know if it soaks into my skin fast or what but I kept having to squeeze more and more out to get where I felt I hadn't missed any spots. This isn't a dark tanning lotion at all. I think it's meant to give you a nice natural glow and that's exactly what it did!! I felt good about using it because it was all natural. After a couple hours in the sun I had a very pretty glow. The glow is very natural looking and just made me look healthier. I loved it!! It was perfect for my fair skin.

 

My skin also felt very soft after using it. It wasn't oily or sticky at all. It pretty much disappeared after being rubbed in.

 
 
 
 

I'd love for you to try it for yourself!! You can go to their website to check out their products http://www.bikinikitchen.com/.

 

 

 

Also, I am giving away a free bottle of the Booty Butter Tanning Lotion!! 

 
 
 

I didn't want to do a huge extensive giveaway process for just a little bottle so I figured I would just play a guessing game! The first person to guess the correct answer by leaving me a comment will win! Good luck guys!! :)

What year did I graduate high school?

****The correct year was already guessed! It was 2001. Congratulations Shannon!!! :) Thanks for trying everyone! Make sure to visit their website and check out all of their other natural products!****

I'm in awe of how many wonderful people I have met and great friends I have made. Thank you all so much for being so sweet!!! Of course this calls for a CELEBRATION!! A celebration in the form of a giveaway!! I put a lot of thought into what to give away and I needed a little help from a friend.
