This marks my 150th post and my second blog anniversary!
First of all, thank you. Thank you all for your continuous support, your encouragements and critics – because there’s always room for improvement ;).
Thank you to everyone who reads here, from the one-time visitors to the loyal readers.
Thank you to to all the fellow green bloggers and the entire green community for being such a nutrturing and kind community, contributing to making blogging a haven of peace. It’s a pleasure to work in such a thriving and intelligent environment, where people are so supportive, funny and empathetic.
Thank you to the artisans, makers, creators for their hard work and dedication, and their conscious decision to offer a safer and gentler alterative to mainstream cosmetics.
Thank you to the green beauty shops for broadening the shopping possibilites and sharing their expertise.
Via this little blog of mine, I have met (both online and in real life), inspiring and extraordinary people and I couldn’t be more grateful for that.
Finally, thank you to all the wonderful sponsors who participated in making this giveway extra special, it’s an honor to have you on board.
Now let’s celebrate, shall we? 🙂
There are 5 different giveaways – all reunited in one page – and you can take part in several if you want. Some are international, some are strictly limited to Europe, but all the details are below.
1. Beauty By Britanie Bohemian Collection x Modern Minerals x Lotus Wei
As soon as it was available online, I put one in the shopping basket for the giveaway, then I cheekily included another kit for myself, because I just couldn’t resist. Plus, it counts as a birthday gift, right? It feels even more special on my second blog anniversary to give away Britanie’s products because she was the very first green blogger I came accross, and it was an eye-opening experience. Being naturally shy, I was very hesitant in starting my own blog, but reading Britanie’s wonderful blog encouraged me to come out of my shell and give blogging a try. Britanie is working on many exciting projects and I couldn’t be happier for her. Her collaboration with Modern Minerals and Lotus Wei is incredible. It’s at the image of Britanie: beautiful, bright and bohemian. The color is a deep fuchsia pink that will look good on everyone. Aside from the gorgeous color, the floral scent is swoon-worthy and incredibly uplifting. I never thought that wearing makeup would help you feel more zen, yet Britanie achieved that. I’ll do a review soon but trust me, it’s a magical kit <3

What a fabulous giveaway and collection of discount codes! And have you only been blogging for 2 years? I thought it was much longer from your deep knowledge of brands and ingredients. You will always have a special place in my heart lovely Liz, because you were the one who first truly welcomed me into the green beauty fold…and for that I am forever and deeply grateful. From that a beautiful friendship has grown and I look forward to the day when we get to hang out in person. Thank YOU for being such a huge contribution to this loving and supporting community…and for being my lipstick guru! You rock! And to the giveaway I have entered, where do I start with saying why I want to try Britanie's collection! We all know I adore pink and the fact that she teamed up with Lotus Wei and Modern Minerals is enough to make any green beauty swoon. I saw this being released (from afar!) at the Indie Beauty Expo and I've been lusting for it ever since. Fingers and toes crossed!! xoxox
Aaaaand for the Axiology lippies I would love to try Attitude and Intrinsic and get another Noble that I love so much. From Amazingy it would have to be a Yüli product, most likely Cocoon =) Thanks again for this amazing giveaway Liz. Bisous! xxx
Waaaw!
Your Giveaways are georgous *o*
Thanks a lot! It's amazing!!! ♥
wow what an amazing giveaway!! I have been eyeing Britanie's MM collab because Britanie has beautiful taste and I love her makeup looks. Plus who doesn't want makeup with flower essences that smells wonderful?
First of all- what an amazing giveaway and congratulations of your 2-year anniversary! I started this green beauty journey earlier this year and have so much to learn 🙂
Beauty by Britanie – I've been reading so many rave reviews of this debut collection and I am in love with the beautiful pink shade she has created! Plus it is a collab with one of my favorite people in green beauty Katie Heiss, whom I know puts a lot of love into all her creations 🙂
Balm Balm – One thing I've been struggling to replace has been an effective dedorant for my husband that will last him all day. We've tried three brands and they've all left him very unimpressed 🙁
Axiology – Again, another green beauty brand I’ve been wanting to try. I’d love to try Worth, Fundamental and Dimension for something a bit more daring 😉
Thank you for your generous spirit!
Congratulations on your 2 year blog anniversary! 🙂 I've only recently stumbled across your blog and I adore it.
I would love to try the Beauty By Britanie Collection because she's a total babe and the collection looks awesome! The pink shades are right up my street <3
A green beauty item which I have been struggling to replace is a contour product. I'm a makeup junkie however, have not found a contour product which rivals mainstream contour products as of yet e.g. Anastasia Beverly Hills etc.
I've been wanting to try out some lipsticks from Axiology for forever! The packaging is absolutely lush. I'd love to try out Bad, Attitude and Elusive – so hard to choose but with the winter months up and coming, I think that these 3 shades would look amazing.
Fingers crossed xx
Congratulations lovely 🙂 . I admire you so so much .
I’m happy for you, you’ve created an amazing blog which I adore reading. Hope to read more great stuff !
There's something about Britanie Bohemian Collection .I can't explain but it evoke positive feelings in me.I'm totally captivated by the descriptions,swatches + unique ingredients.Also i adore Pink,purple and fuchsia.
and from Amazingy,i wish Axiology lippies were available ..i am so dying to try them but still there's so much to choose from. I want to try yuli, something to treat my acne.I'll definitely take your suggestion if i win 🙂
oops i forgot to answer regarding love lula question..i dont think there is anything that i am struggling to replace but i am yet to find a good eye cream/ serum for my under eye puffiness.I have tried few luxurious green beauty brands but am not satisfied 🙁 but My love for green beauty brands is eternal
Wow, congratulations on 2 years! These are incredible giveaways and deals. I'd love to try the Beauty by Britanie x Modern Minerals collection as it is so feminine and pretty and I love supporting green beauty bloggers. As for the Amazingy giftcard, I'd probably use it to try some of the Ilia Beauty lip products that I've been coveting or to fuel my lust for the miracle-working brand, YÜLI.
I would choose the shades Revenge and Attitude from Axiology. So gorgeous!
I stumbled upon green beauty spontaneously when I picked up Paige Padgett's book at the library. I was searching for new makeup looks and ideas but I came upon something even greater and better than I could have hoped for. I am now a green beauty mua and I am desperately trying to show my clients that green beauty can be just as glamorous as all of the high end makeup brands! 🙂 I think this collection is sultry and glam and think it would make a "pop" in my kit! I love what you guys stand for and you are all beautiful inside and out! 😉 xoxo LayLayMakeup
I'd love to win Beauty By Britanie Bohemian Collection because I've never tried these products.

I would you get with the Amazingy gift certifcate some Ilia makeup or kahina product.
I would love to try Britanie's collection because I love the vibrant pink color and I'm super interested in how it is infused with gemstones. 😮 I've also followed Britanie for a while (she's one of the first green beauty bloggers I followed) and would love to try something created by her!
This means so much to me!!! 🙂 <3
It's so hard to choose what I would get at Amazingy if I won, but I know for sure I want to finally try the RMS Living Luminizer and an Ilia Tinted Lip Conditioner. 🙂
Congratulations on 2 years.
I'm realizing now that I should have tried to group all my comments for the giveaways together. Sorry about that. 🙁 Anyway, I've been struggling to replace foundation/bb cream and mascara with more natural options.
Axiology: elusive, philosophy, and worth
Oh, this is an incredible big contest! 🙂 Axiologyand Alima Pure I want to try for a long time and a voucher to Amazingy – yes, yes, yes !!!
