1st Blogaversary! Minnie's Giveaway :)



Giveaway! To celebrate my 1st year at Polish or Perish and to show my appreciation :) Keeping in mind that I am but a student, the prizes aren't very imaginative, but this is the kind of gift I love the most (where I can personally pick, I love gift cards!) so it goes along with what I'd like either way! First, though, a small announcement:


And now the prizes... there are 3 prizes! Instead of doing one grand prize, I decided to go for 3 equal prizes of $25 from Llarowe. Since Llarowe ships internationally and this is in gift certificate form, this is open both domestically and internationally. I may add more later on, so keep tuned!


a Rafflecopter giveaway

End date to enter the giveaway will be May 16, the last day of my finals, and I will post winners on May 17!

Thank you for your support this past year and I hope to continue for many more :)

<3 minnie

  6. Happy blogiversary.

    Not sure if it counts as an "indie" anymore, but I love A England. For another it has to be Dollish Polish, purely due to the Big Bang Theory range!

    ReplyDelete

  36. Thank you for the giveaway! I've only tried two indie brands, KBShimmer and Pretty & Polished. I love them both but KBShimmer is probably my favorite.

    ReplyDelete
  37. I'm not yet a happy Indie owner - I cannot choose the best (they're all so gorgeous), and having only a small amount of money to spend on "beauty equipment", I need to be very picky - If you get the idea ;-)

    I've looked at http://shop.llarowe.com - and price money might be used on "CrowsToes - Her Goose Got Cooked" or one of the Dollish Polish "Big Bang Theory Collection" (I loooove BBT *LOL*)

    Thanks for inspiring me to remember, that beautiful nails is a girls best business card <3

    ReplyDelete
  38. Happy blogaversary!

    My favorite indie right now is HARE polish, but I'd love to try Pahlish, too. :)

    ReplyDelete
  39. I HAVE to choose? :D Ok, if I had to pick just one, it would be Picture Polish. The colors are just so delicious!

    ReplyDelete
  40. Hmmm, tough question! I adore my bottle of Expecto Patronum from Dollish Polish, but I think I have the most from AEngland, so I have to call it a tie :)

    ReplyDelete
  41. My favorite indie brand is Hare

    ReplyDelete
  42. Happy Bloggiversary! And thank you for the giveaway. My favourite indie brand is KBShimmer; I don't think one of their polishes has been a dud. (^_^)

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  44. Happy blogversary ^^

    Unfortunately I have to say that I don't own any indie polishes, so I can't say which one is my favorite. All I know is that I am craving for "Lush Laquers"

    Greetings
    Sarah

    ReplyDelete
  52. Thanks for the generous giveaway and a year of great posts! My fave indie is DifferentDimension. :)

    ReplyDelete

  61. Thanks a lot for hosting the giveaway! I love Llarowe, it's the only place I can find some int'l polishes. My fav indy so far is Cirque, but not sure if they count as "indy" <:/ so also going with Contrary Polish :)

    ReplyDelete
  62. I haven't tried a lot of indies, but the Girly Bits polishes I have are very nice!

    ReplyDelete
  63. I love Darling Diva :D

    Congratulations on the anniversary!!! Thank you for this giveaway!!

    ReplyDelete
  64. I'm sure I'm in the minority but I actually don't care for indies. I feel like they're all just variations on a theme (glitter bombs) and I'm not a huge fan of glitter bombs in general.
    That being said, and I'm not sure these count as indie, I think cirque and picture polish have some absolutely BEAUTIFUL shades.

    thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  65. Sorry but I can't just choose one! A-England, Mentality and Nailnation is my top 3 at the moment!

    ReplyDelete
  66. Thanks for the giveaway!
    Happy Blogiversary!!!

    I love Pahlish, Girly Bits, Smitten and A England, just to name a few ;)

    Thanks again!!!

    ReplyDelete
  67. Thank you for having this giveaway! I love all of your nail pictures! I love Pahlish & KBShimmer & more!

    ReplyDelete
  68. I guess Cult would be my favorite indie polish company, since it's the only one I've tried and I did like most of the polish I got from them.

    ReplyDelete
  69. Happy Blog Anniversary! OMGH! YAY! & I like Tilly Nail Polish.

  70. okay I am going to be totally honest here, out of my nailpolish stash which counts approx 700 bottles,( I have built that collection over the last 15 years) have zero indie polishes...time to give them a try I guess?

    ReplyDelete
  71. Happy blogaversary!

    I love indies, and if I have to highlight a few (can't do just one, sorry) it'd be Elevation, Enchanted, Girly Bits, Dollish Polish and Foxy Paws/WellNails :D

    ReplyDelete
  72. Thanks so much for hosting this giveaway! I only have 3 indie polish brands in my stash so far and have only tried two of those brands, so I'd say that my favourite indies are A England so far; as well as Cult Nails Wicked Fast top coat!

    ReplyDelete
  73. Hummm... hard to tell, I would say Jindie Nails

    ReplyDelete
  74. I only own one Indie so I guess my favorite is Love Land Nail Paint :-)

    ReplyDelete
  75. I'm an indie polish virgin! ;-)

    ReplyDelete
  76. I don't have a lot of indies! Congrats on your blogaversary!!!

    ReplyDelete
  77. I love a-england if that counts as an indie brand. Otherwise, I really love looking (don't own any) at Contrary Polish's handmade polishes on the web.

    ReplyDelete
  78. I've heard about a lot of indies, but I haven't personally experienced any myself!

    ReplyDelete
  79. Happy Blogiversary! It's hard to pick my favorite indie brand, but if I had to, I'd say Enchanted Polish.

    I'm not sure I can choose a favourite, but being a huge Doctor Who fan I'm really enamoured with some of the Nerd Lacquer shades. :)

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  90. Love your blog! And great great giveaway. How do I choose a favorite Indie? I just made a purchase at KB Shimmer, so today I guess it is KB Shimmer.

    ReplyDelete
  91. I've never tried an indie but I am just dying to try one

    ReplyDelete
  92. Haven't tried any indie polishes yet since I'm fairly new to nail polish. Happy Blogiversary!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete
  99. I don't have any, but I've been really intrigued by Picture Polish! Thanks for a great giveaway!

    ReplyDelete
  100. I am hopelessly in love with Lynnderella, they are hard to get over the ocean though!

    ReplyDelete
  101. My favorite indie at the moment is Candeo Colors Deep Space. It lasted a whole week on my nails without chips, and I work in a preschool .. so you can only imagine the kind of wear and tear it stood up to.

    ReplyDelete
  102. I don't own any indies yet! I have my eye on a lot of them though.

    ReplyDelete
  103. NerdLacquer is definitely one of my favorites. Enchanted Polish is up there as well. xD

    Of those two brands my favorite colors are Octopus' Garden by Enchanted and Decidedly Unlike Tea by Nerd.

    ReplyDelete
  104. I'm really new to this, but A-England has such beautiful colors.

    ReplyDelete
  105. Thanks for the giveaway chance!

    Wow hard to pick.. Gloss n Sparkle, Femme Fatale Cosmetics and NerdLacquer are among my favourites (: dying to get my hands on their creations!

    ReplyDelete
  106. Thanks for giveaway! My favorite indie brand is Contrary Polish.

    ReplyDelete
  107. My favorite indie... I think if you twisted my arm to pick just one, it'd be Pretty & Polished!

    ReplyDelete
  108. Congrats on the blogaversary! And thanks for hosting this giveaway. :)

    ReplyDelete
  109. Oh gosh, I don't know if I can choose a single brand as my favorite indie! Off the top of my head maybe Enchanted Polish, since I think they have the most polishes that I want to buy (in other words, every single one of them).

    ReplyDelete
  110. Wonderful giveaway! Congrats and thank you very much!

    ReplyDelete
  111. I love Happy Hands' Motherboy. Chockful of pastel satin glitters in green, aqua, baby blue, pink, and lavender and it's perfect over any color :]

    ReplyDelete
  112. Although I don't own any indie polishes right now, if I had to jump on the bandwagon, I would choose Lynnderellas!

    ReplyDelete
  113. It's so hard to choose just 1 fave indie, but.. mine would have to be D & R Apothecary. I own like 40 of her polishes (but to be fair most of them are minis)! Thanks for having this excellent giveaway!! :)

    ReplyDelete
  114. My favorite indie is Dollish Polish Expecto Patronum. :)

    ReplyDelete
  115. My favorite indie brand is probably either A England or piCture pOlish =)

    ReplyDelete
  116. Other than my own indie brand (Pirate Polish), I'd have to say Nerd Lacquer and Dollish Polish- those were the very first indies I ordered, and I immediately fell in love. They also inspired me to start making my own lacquers!

    ReplyDelete
  117. KBShimmer is my fav. Thanks for the opportunity!

    ReplyDelete
  118. I think Rainbow Honey is my favorite indie brand. :)

  124. Great giveaway! I'm always disappointed when I get excited for a giveaway then find out at the bottom it's not open internationally, so thank you! My favorite indie brand of polish is always changing but right now it's probably jindie nails.

  151. Thanks for such a great giveaway!

    I've only tried 2 indies so far- Hare and kb shimmer. I love them both. My bank account is not happy that I've caught the bug...

    ReplyDelete
  152. Oof hard question! I probably have the most bottles be Palish, though I love the ones I have from Lush Lacquer, too!

    ReplyDelete
  153. I especially like A-England (holos!), though I'm not sure if they even count as indie - the glitter concoctions of true indie brands very rarely catch my interest, gotta be a stellar combo ;)

    ReplyDelete
  154. It's a toss up between Enchanted Polish and Pretty & Polished.

    ReplyDelete
  155. I love lush lacquer and KB nails

    Adriannasmommy26@yahoo.com

  156. I only have a few indies, so I don't really have a favorite... A lot of them are really beautiful though.

    ReplyDelete
  157. My favourite indie.. that's a hard one! I'd probably have to say HARE polish.

    ReplyDelete
  158. I think my fave is Lucky 13 Lacquer! It's so hard to pick though!

    ReplyDelete
  159. I haven't tried Jinsoon, but really want to, is that an indie polish? :)

    ReplyDelete
  160. My favourite indie would be A-England...unfortunately they don't have free worldwide shipping anymore. :(

    ReplyDelete
