Pretty Pretty Secret Santas?

November 24th, 2009

Hi lovelies,

I reckon that we’ve all got different ideas about what’s pretty but we also have a lot in common and we all have ideas about what’s nice. How would you all like to play Secret Santa to each other? I’m thinking it would be swell to receive a lovely gift in the mail and to send one out to someone you haven’t met before. The way it would work is that you’d leave a comment here saying you’re committed to playing nicely and to buying something lovely for around $10-$15 for another lovely reader and that you promise to send them the gift before Xmas. In return, your name would be secretly assigned to someone else who would send you something lovely. I love gift-buying and while I’m financially in big doo doo right now, I could still stretch to that amount of money – or make something homemade and charming. Who’s with me? I’ll take names until Dec 1 when I’ll email you all for addresses and assign you someone else to play with. This is only open to NZers, sorry because of postage costs and shipping delays and all that stuff.

You smell delicious and other good lines

November 24th, 2008

deliciousThe lovely Lou from Delicious has sent us some more goodies to try. Remember how we were in the pink and we wondered what it would be like to get the blues? Well, we’ve got the aquas now, and so can you.

Two out of two people in a blind smell test have said that the aqua hand balm would be for boys and the pink would be for girls, but Amy reckons it would be nice as a bodywash for girls too – and the site agrees, calling Aqua Delicious “fresh, clean and unisex”.  One person described the scent as similar to that of Davidoff Cool Water, while someone else said it was a little generic-Lynxy. I say that it smells manly, but you can decide for yourself because that’s right – we’ve got another giveaway! We have the awesome-feeling hand-balm, some fragrance mist and the body exfoliator, and if you want it, you’ve gotta work for it.

In keeping with the manly theme, gentlemen and ladies, we want you to chat us up. Leave us your best pick-up line in the comments before next Monday, and we’ll choose a winner based on whatever we like the most on that day (so personalised compliments could be a go).

Prize will be sent to NZ addressees only, unless you want to stump up for packaging or send us reciprocal products.
