2015 Summary

It's the end of the year and time for my yearly summary! This year has been pretty disappointing on the whole, I've not won very much and I'm feeling pretty disheartened. I don't want to sound ungrateful because I have had some lovely wins, but it does feel like a lot of the year has been a bit of wasted effort given the amount of time it takes every evening. I might cut back a bit next year - life is for living after all!

2015 Total: £1341.91
Lifetime Total: £14,972.76

La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo

My second advent win - a bottle of La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo. It's a lovely moisturiser, really soft and glides on nicely.

Value: £15.50
2015 Total: £1341.91

Etrala Sweatshirt

One of my only wins in the advents this year - a sweatshirt from London designer Etrala. It's gorgeously soft, so cosy, but it's quite a weird shape - it's short but not cropped, and very baggy in places, so you end up looking sort of...triangular. I think it will end up being a wear-round-the-house type top rather than something I would feel confident going out in. 

Stock photo because as ever I am terrible at taking photos of clothes.

Value: £50
2015 Total: £1326.41

The Duff DVD

I was very confused when the post arrived the other day, containing a second copy of the Duff on DVD! I entered a few comps for this at the same time but only had one winning email so this was a strange surprise!

Value: £6.99

Beauty Gifts

I can't believe it's been over a month since my last update! My wins have been so infrequent of late I've lost my mojo to blog even when I do win something. I forgot to take a photo of these so I've used the photo the company posted when they advertised the comp. A selection of chocolates and beauty bits - there was a little more included than in the pic, some extra chocs and nail varnish.

Value: Approx £20
