Happy Friday lovelies! Today’s post is all about a competition I won over on Instagram last month and I wanted to share my experience with you all!
Back in June I spotted a post Dannii Minogue made on her Tumblr account about a 25 year anniversary competition celebrating the release of her debut single ‘Love & Kisses’. She was asking fans to either make a video or take an image inspired by Love & Kisses. You simply had to upload your creation to Instagram, tag Dannii and include the hashtag #Disco25.
For my entry I decided to upload a video of me singing Love & Kisses. I was pretty nervous as I’ve never uploaded a video of myself before but thankfully it paid off. I took inspiration from Dannii’s style in the Love & Kisses video for my outfit and makeup. I wore a black jacket and went for a red lip and fresh faced look.
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in 081 Ivory
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer – 15 Fair
Thin Lizzy 6 in 1 Professional Powder – Light
Chi Chi Billion Dollar Wallet ‘Heiress’
Rimmel Scandaleyes Lycra Flex Mascara in Black
Thin Lizzy Precision Liquid Eyeliner*
Dainty Doll Powder Blush 004 You Are My Sunshine
Revlon Fire & Ice Lipstick
*I hardly ever wear eyeliner and I spent so long trying to get it perfect that after applying it and cleaning it up numerous times my eyes had enough product on from doing that.
All made up and time to start filming!
My winning entry!
Dannii liked my video and commented on it to notify me I had won. I had no idea what the prize was but I was incredibly shocked and happy to be chosen.
Last Wednesday I came home from work to a package from Australia. I couldn’t contain my excitement and opened it straight away. Inside was a Love & Kisses vinyl record made out to me as well as a card with a personalised handwritten message. The card from Dannii was such a beautiful touch and this prize is something I’ll treasure forever!
Hope you enjoyed reading this post and let me know what you think of my #Disco25 makeup look! Have you won any competitions of your own lately?
Amazing, congrats Chanelle! 🙂
