Samples Received/Redeemed: 12 Sept - 20 Sept 2012

Hello to my beautiful readers, you may wonder why there wasn't a blog posting yesterday. Don't worry just yet, I was taking the time to edit photographs snapped in order to upload them for today. As you can see from the blog post title, this is for samples that I have received, redeemed and won throughout the timeframe from 12 September till 20 September (2012). Included are links on how to get them, and if possible, links on contests to join them in winning your own prize too. So, sit back, read all about it and have a wonderful weekend and upcoming week :)

At first I was like o.o, then I was like ^_^. The sample I requested from Pets Place Purina finally came, and it's actually for the stray cat near this provision stall where I frequently wobbled to in order to get my occasional coca cola drink fix.

Even pet food can look so 'posh', don't you think?

Comes with 2 packets of kitty food sample, namely:

• Seabream, Surimi, Sole & Snapper x 1
• Tuna, Surimi & Prawns

Cats sure have good life, even their pet food comes in broth version...

Another card with a tantalizing image of the broth. I'm already feeling tempted to nom on it instead of feeding it to the cat..

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: I got this when their ad was flashing on the right side of my Facebook wall, however, I think the link/redemption is over. Instead, there's another new complimentary link.

Go to Pets Place Purina Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/PetsPlacePurina, Like the page. Next click on the link that says Purina ONE WORLD and look for the next link called Take The 30 Day Challenge within the app and join it in order to receive a complimentary pack of Purina ONE. (This Purina ONE is meant for man's best friend, so if you have a kitty pet instead of a tail-waggly version, my apologies ^^)

More mail from Heroine Make and Hada Labo.

Just kinda lucked out on this one, I supposed. The competition was going on for quite a while and only managed to know about this. The catch is that I must vote for my favorite photo to receive a free Heroine Make Limited Edition Facial Blotter. And the voter must be within the first 300 as well. Glad my friend and I made it :)

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: Currently, the voting competition is over, however, I would suggest to Like Heroine Make Singapore Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/HeroineMakeSingapore to be notified of future contest(s) and giveaway(s).

The latest giveaway from Hada Labo Singapore, where the freebie is a Limited Edition Travel Size Hada Labo Hydrating Milk.

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: Go to Hada Labo Singapore Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/hadalabosg, Like the page. Next, click on the link that says Free Sample!. However, unlike previous sample giveaway, this is a little tricky to "maneuver" in order to get your hands on it.

For starters, this new giveaway requires you to get at least 2 friends to register for a FREE Hada Labo Hydrating Lotion sample, and only then you can get a FREE Limited Edition Hada Labo Hydrating Milk (20g). Once a min of 2 friends have redeemed it successfully, you will get the FREE Limited Edition Hada Labo Hydrating Milk (20g) from them to thank you for sharing.

For the catch, mine that arrived wasn't the FREE Limited Edition Hada Labo Hydrating Milk (20g), instead, it was the travel size Hada Labo SHA Hydrating Lotion...

Sample set comes with a pouch in the shape of a water drop. And you can imagined my surprise when I received an email from SaSa Singapore announcing that I had won, although I couldn't seem to find that particular post or winner announcement post to share D:

A Super Aquasis Moisture Gel Cream. Super moisturizing and refreshing effects (18ml).

A Super Aquasis Moisture Seed Ample Kit. A moisture-rich ample of Crystal Moisture Seed (1ml x 4 pieces).

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: I won this DR.G Super Aquasis set from one of SaSa Singapore Facebook contest. If you would like to try your chance at their various Facebook page contest, it's not that hard to do so.

I saw this giveaway at the usual place on my Facebook page, and I requested for Mixed Berries Mask. Although I was happy when I finally received the sample, I didn't feel that thrilled after I found out what it was.

I requested for Mixed Berries Mask, but they claimed it's "Out of Stock" and mailed me a Arbutin Whitening Mask instead <.< And the note that accompanied the mask claimed that it was chosen to be sent to me based on "closest to my request".

Honestly, I have uneven skin tone a little here and there. And this will probably make my even skin tone even paler and my uneven skin tone areas look even more uneven instead. If you get my hint -_-" I personally think it's more of "We sent you whatever we can get our hands on" instead of "We sent you based on the request closest to my initial choice".

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: If you are feeling lucky and think you may get a sample of the choice you have chosen, go over to My Beauty Diary SG Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/MyBeautyDiarySg, Like their page.

Next, click on the link that says Redeem Free Sample!. If they sent you what you chose, good luck and stay as a fan. if they don't, then it's up to you XD

As usual, Venus Beauty Singapore conducted their second giveaway, I quoted the phrase needed for the giveaway and got to redeem this NOPS Egg White Bubble Cleanser.

This NOPS Egg White Bubble Cleanser comes with a nozzle dispenser for easy use and hygiene as well.

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: Go to Venus Beauty Singapore Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/venusbeauty.sg, Like their page. New fans will have to wait for the next giveaway that is announced on their wall, however, existing fans can redeem ongoing giveaways.

This current NOPS Egg White Foam Cleanser will be on until 01 October for existing fans. Therefore, next giveaway should be announced on 02 October, I wonder what goodie will these generous folks give out next :D

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: Go to this CozyCot website at http://www.cozycot.com/vaseline-uv-ligthening/, click on the link that says Click here for FREE 120ml sample!.

Next, a new pop-up window will appear. Fill in your particulars/answer a short questionnaire and go over to CozyCot's retail store at Orchard Central (Level 2) and present your NRIC to redeem it. Initially, I thought 120ml must be uber small, until I realized it was bigger than the previous Vaseline sample I redeemed before.

(Saw the previous Vaseline sample tube being sold at Guardian Pharmacy for S$1.00 per tube, so was rather hesitant, but was proved wrong!) Quickly go get yours!!

Well, a good friend (Irene) asked if I was going down the next day to her workplace. And since I was popping by to pick up my various samples (ahem! They're free, it's a waste if I don't ask for them), I decided to pop by her workplace and try the much-anticipated Manhattan Pizza Company as well. (Love them for non-oily pizzas!)

And was presented with uber stuffs that I fell in love with. There were Nando vouchers (which was promptly "looted" by my brother...), a retail-size bottle of Hada Labo SHA Hydrating Lotion (she said she won quite a few and had some give as gifts, so she gib me one, so sweet ♥♥♥ ), a packet of facial mask that can be used with the Hada Labo SHA Hydrating Lotion if I don't feel like applying with my fingers/hands instead.

And not forgetting, an EcoPure that consists of a bottle of Moisture Toner and Moisture Emulsion.

Felt a little paiseh to receive such wonderful goodies, I decided to gib back some of my favorite products from TBS too. Hope she will like them as well ^^

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

So, I got a mail from Welcome the World and wondered what was it?

Turns out I joined one of their Match & Win contest and this lanyard was a token of appreciation. Actually, I hoped to win at least a Kinokuniya voucher ^^ Don't mind buying some beauty-related books to read.

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: Go over to Welcome the World Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/WelcometheWorld, Like their page. If the Match & Win contest can still be played, go ahead and do so for a shot of winning one of the voucher prize. If not, you can still be notified of future contest and giveaways.

And lastly, not forgetting our (my specifically) BFF in beauty products, Nezon Marketing a.k.a My Scheming!! I won't reveal why they are so generous with a box of facial mask, but it'll be revealed in due time, so stay tuned to this blog for it ^^

So, the delivery post-woman arrived at 10ish in the morning and I was still snoozing since I was trying to play this new MMO game called Forsaken World. The town area wasn't that "forsaken", but other questing area seemed to be so :P

Was kinda expecting her (the same post-woman from my previous SingPost delivery for winning the the T-Zone contest) to yell out a new name for another pooch species, since she already yelled "Poodle!". Too bad she didn't, however, she yelled out something else that I simply cannot decipher.. o.o Definitely not "chihuahua", I assure you.

And as usual, it was well "sealed" but I knew who the sender was, looking at how my address was printed out XD

Opens box and squeals happily!!

I just love the letter they sent along, just to re-confirm how and why I got it ^^ Yeah, I'm weird but hey, it does bring another nice element of happiness and surprise knowing that you won/got something and the letter re-affirmed that as well!

Heh heh~ It's not that hard to guess what this is for.

Got another complimentary mask (Bird's Nest Collagen Hydrating Mask) from the wonderful folks at "Nezon Marketing: My Scheming to test out ^^

And at the same time, won one of their facebook contest as well. This makes it 2 pieces of Milk Extract Brightening Mask that I can use, try and review here too ^^ Awesome!!

Ahhhhh~ An entire box of Deep Cleansing Pore Minimizing Mask (x 10 pieces at 30 ml each) to look pretty. *squeals again*

WHERE TO REDEEM SAMPLE: My Scheming (by Nezon Marketing) occasionally has facebook contest where you can win a facial mask to try and use. To join and stand a chance at winnng their awesome product, it's not that hard too.
