GIVEAWAYS / CONTESTS
The AIPAS 1st Birthday Giveaway was drawn, winners notified, addresses confirmed and it is now largely in the hands of the Postal Gods. We have had one prize haul photo in the group so far, and we hope there are many others over the coming weeks.
AIPAS would like to thank everyone who sponsored a prize, or donated towards postage costs. Without you, our giveaway would not have happened, and your generosity was greatly appreciated. Also a thank you to everyone who entered the giveaway, and showed your support for our Aussie Indie polish industry.
WHO IS AIPAS
The Australian Indie Polish Appreciation Society was created with a simple goal, to help promote and share the love of Aussie Indie polish brands.
AIPAS is a Facebook group of brands and fans that have come together to share the love of Australian Indie Polish. If you're only stumbling across this newsletter from the web, please drop by and check out our Facebook group for shared swatches, up to date release previews and our weekly challenge. If a community isn't your style, you can always follow this blog using GFC or Bloglovin and get some of the highlights.
The AIPAS Mod team comprises of Nicole Wearmouth, Relle Kins (Lazy Lacquerista) and Teneil Masters (Shades of Phoenix/Shades of Teebee).
You can email the mod team at aussieindiemods@gmail.com or send any of us a private FB message.
GLITTER FOR ALL!
