Share Yourself!
Looking to show off your awesome mani, eye look or hot lips to people across the world? Look no further!
I am starting a new series called Share Yourself. These posts will be a way for you to show off your skills and maybe get your name out there. I’ll feature 3-6 people per post, depending on how many submissions I get (hopefully a lot!) and will link back to your site.
Rules for submission
- The photos must be at least 500 pixels wide and only two photos max per submission.
- Photos must be clear and color accurate. By clear I mean no pics from a camera phone, no blurriness, but it doesn’t have to be HD or anything. By color accurate I just mean try taking the photo in the best light you can. Nothing washed out or so dark you can’t see it.
- No Photoshopped photos please. You can use it for very minor things like a eliminating piece of stray cat hair *ahem* but I prefer “as is” photos.
- No watermarks or any writing on your photos please.
- I would like photos that haven’t already been showcased already on your blog or elsewhere.
- Include a list of products used and if relevant, how you used them for the look.
- If you have a blog or YouTube channel, etc., please let me know what it is so I can link back to it.
- Tell me three things about yourself that you want people to know. Can be anything!
- Please be aware that I only feature cruelty-free brands (and brands not owned by companies who do test). See the list here if you are unsure.
- Please submit to me by the 20th of each month for posting the following week.
- Submissions should be sent to me in one email at: kelly@vampyvarnish.com.
Thanks for participating, I look forward to your photos!
-Kelly
Welcome! My name is Kelly and Vampy Varnish is a animal friendly beauty blog.
This is a very gracious idea of yours to give a boost to newbies and less-established bloggers. Very generous.
This is a great new feature. I’m looking forward to seeing what other people share, and I’m definitely going to share a manicure.
Thanks for the opportunity, Kelly.
wow! Sounds so much fun!! I am sooo participating!!! Nice serie Kelly!!! You are so nice!!!
This is great idea!
“By clear I mean no camera photos”
What?
Hi Em,
Whoops should have said camera phone, it’s fixed now!
Thanks for the clarification!
Oh awesome! This is so exciting! I’ll definitely be submitting!
What a great and generous idea! I hope to attend this month, I’ll try again the next one, eventually. Thank you, this is a big chance for nrwbies like me ^___^
Sent my entry, yay! ;D
Wow Kelly! What a nice gesture
I will have to work on something to submit 
Absolutely love this idea! I can’t wait to see what your readers will send.
This is a great idea, but I’m curious about one thing: why do you not want photos that have been posted on our blogs or elsewhere?
Hi Chris,
I prefer that new pics that people haven’t already seen be featured.
Ohh, now I get what you mean!
This is a really neat idea! I look forward to seeing what others submit. ^_^
Ooooh!!! I’m so excited!! This is such an amazing opportunity and so very generous of you!!
Just sent mine in! Super excited… what a great idea!
