Ahh yes lovelies, it's that time of the year again, time to celebrate another year of kats colourings. This week my little blog turns five years old. FIVE! Can't believe I'm still prattling away in this little corner of the blogosphere lol. Mind you work concerns over the last few months have limited me to a solitary post per week, but I wouldn't miss that opportunity for the world - my one chance to rave on about colour and beauty, jewellery and fragrance, skincare and makeup, and of course, LIPPIES! Believe me, I'm grateful to any of you who stop by for a quick read, and my old ticker skips a beat if you leave a comment, so to thank all you fabulous friends and faithful followers, I've rummaged through my stockpile of loot and come up with this bundle of goodies. It's my biggest giveaway EVER, and worth around $400 ♥...
Up for grabs is...
Here's a closeup of the bling, which doesn't do it justice at all - it's so gorgeous and sparkly...
And a closeup of the Michael Hill ring - try as I might I haven't been able to get my camera to capture the colour of the stone accurately. It's a light pink, but brighter than this and more lolly pink rather than rose, if that makes any sense...
All items were purchased by me, apart from the jewellery everything is sealed, and 'cos this is such a major giveaway, I'll keep it running for several weeks, and will have to limit it to...

ReplyDeleteHi Stella, I'm so happy you've entered! The ring is pretty - I would have kept it but I already have something similar ♥
DeleteI didn't want to enter, because I won a big prize from you not long ago; but I wanted to say congratulations on your five years in the Blogiverse!
ReplyDeleteAww thanks hon, that's so kind of you - in case you change your mind, everyone is welcome to enter each and every giveaway, someone has to win it!

ReplyDeleteHey girlfriend, thanks heaps! I never imagined I'd last this long lol ♥
DeleteI forgot to add that the brushes take my fancy as a lady can never have enough of them.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely agree with you Mandy - these ones are excellent quality too. I already have a set, but I picked these up on special ages ago ♥
DeleteCongratulations Kats on your 5 year blog anniversary, that’s a huge achievement xx
ReplyDeleteI would love to try the Glow Lab set, looks like a great way to try a few products in the range and who doesn’t want radiant glowing skin. Claire F
Claire thank you lovely lady! I'm currently trying out the Glow Lab night cream, and I'm really quite impressed with how effective it is, plus it doesn't contain any of the usual nasty chemicals ♥
Delete5 years....massive congrats Kats. I love your blog.
ReplyDeleteI love the Olay Miracle Essence...its amazing and I have 2 bottles of it with me here in the US.
But ....I must say I really do love that ring...the pink stone is divine....I love pink.
Thanks so much Fawn - you've been such a wonderful supporter of my little bit of nonsense over the years, and I so appreciate all your comments. Will be forever in your debt for introducing me to the Olay Essence, it's a can't live without now! ♥

ReplyDeleteTa Amy - I wouldn't have you as a far away friend if it wasn't for blogging! ♥♥♥
DeleteCongratulations on 5 blogging years Kat!! :) You are the one who really deserves all the prizes! <3
ReplyDeleteEverything looks so good and I would love to try it all. However that Micheal Hill ring is so up my ally that I cannot stop sharing at it! It is definitely my kinda style and if I won I'd wear it everyday! :D (Seriously!)
Well done again Kat, I am so delighted for you and hope you never stop with your posts, they are a joy to read! xoxo
Hi Candy girl! You're such a sweetheart, and I'm not surprised you like the ring, after all it's so pretty and sparkly, just like you ♥ Loving your new look blog, and big hugs as you count the days till your new little angel arrives ♥
DeleteCongrats on your 5th Bloggiversary! Been following you since you started posting eye looks on Beautyheaven forum. I might not comment much on your general blog posts but I read every one of them! I'd love to try the Olay set, I haven't tried many Olay products, but I do like the very few ones that I have used.
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh the bh EOTD thread, now that takes me back stackcats! You're one of my original supporters, and I thank you for still being here hon. The Olay products are beaut, I've tried them all and can highly recommend them, especially the Essence, it's my latest love ♥
DeleteCongratulations Kats on 5 years of blogging. It takes great dedication and generosity to share your knowledge with us. I’ve only been following you for the last six months (I think) but I have already purchased one product you have recommended (Australis ready set go) and have ordered the Nutrimetics cleansing balm with cloth. Your review was so good I just had to have it!
ReplyDeleteWhere to start with what excites me the most? The ring is stunning, my size and might just match the earrings I won in one of your giveaways earlier this year, or it could be the Olay as I love their affordable youth pre-essence, or the eyeshadow brushes so I can experiment more with my eyeshadow. It’s all pretty and exciting. It’s pretty exciting!
My dear Okatko, yes we connected not that long ago, but you've been so generous and consistent with your comments, and I thank you for your support. Hope you love the balm as much as I do, and I'm delighted you're excited about the prize - it was fun putting the pack together!
DeleteThe ring looks amazing, it's a sparkler!
ReplyDeleteThe above comment was cut short because my baby was trying to type!
DeleteCongratulations Kat, what an achievement and a milestone. That's truly amazing!
My goodness Elly, you're starting her early! Ha ha just kidding - thank you for your lovely comment hon ♥
DeleteCongrats on 5 years Kats!! And such a lovely blog it is! My fave item is the Real Techniques brush set x
ReplyDeleteAngela thanks for your kind words hon, can hardly believe I've been at it for this long lol! Ah yes there's nothing quite like Real Techniques brushes ♥
DeleteI’m the most excited about that necklace. It’s absolutely stunning!! Good luck everyone xx
ReplyDeleteIt's definitely a statement piece Jo - actually I'm regretting giving it away!
DeleteI have no idea where my comment went. Everything looks awesome. Another generous giveaway as always. The jewellery looks stunning.
ReplyDeleteNo worries Lauren - I've had trouble entering blog comments myself from time to time. I can see your entries in the giveaway though so all good - glad you like the prize! xxx
DeleteLove the look of that necklace! I love your quarterly lip posts - I really find it helpful to view so many different colours in the one compact area - so much more convenient than having to scroll through a long page and not being able to compare them so easily. Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteThanks Lina, so glad you like the LOTD posts - they're fun for me to put together too xxx
DeleteCongratulations Kats on 5 years anniversary. Can't believe it. You are one inspiring amazing beautiful generous lady i have ever met. So youthful and love how you dedicate time to your blog even if you are busy. Love your pictures as well as all your makeup creations. It was so nice to chat with you the other week. Here is to more years. Paying for your success and I know your generosity will be rewarded big time.
ReplyDeleteMoonlight I'm so touched by what you've written, thank you lovely, you're an absolute sweetheart ♥ I'm so happy we had time to actually talk at the after-party - it was indeed a great pleasure to get to know you more, and I so look forward to catching up with you again whenever we can! ♥♥♥
DeleteCongratulations on your 5 year bloggiversary Kats! You create the most colourful, fun and attractive looks and so eloquent in your writing. Wishing you many more blogging years to come (for our entertainment)...!
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Stella aka skincarejunkie on her gorgeous win :)
Aww thanks a bunch Tigerlily - that's kind of you, and I really appreciate your feedback hon ♥♥♥
