The secretjewellz jewelry is a lot more vintage style than I usually go for but I did come across 2 I really liked: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16455346 (Chained Flower Bronze Necklace) & http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=15155336 (Lacy Flowers @ Midnight Earrings).
Hana: Just to let you know that you can actually increase your chances of winning by entering the products you found in two different comments since you found two you’ve liked. But no worries. This comment is still valid as an entry.

I’m really liking the first site you mentioned – Secret Jewellz, because I LOVE filigree jewelry! The Honey Dew Vintage Brass Filigree Necklace caught my eye (http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16037753). It kinda reminded me of this necklace a cartoon character used to play, and she was like, Mother Earth or something. Gives a very ethereal look to it
December 7th, 2008 at 4:34 pm
I love the idea of the brush guards! If I don’t win any ): I would go and order my own!
Qian: Yes, it’s a great beauty tool. I reviewed it recently. And I have another set to give away after this one too.
December 7th, 2008 at 4:46 pm
I think the brush guards at The Brush Guard store are a great idea. I’m thinking of getting the medium-size ones for travelling.
December 7th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
I love the color of “Kiss Me I’m Single” at Express Effects Cosmetics.
December 7th, 2008 at 4:53 pm
I love the Cute Hoota Brass Necklace at Secret Jewellz.

The Ever Changing Purple and Green Iridescent Dragonfly czech glass button Necklace is so pretty and unique!
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=16417450
December 7th, 2008 at 5:23 pm
the brush guard is a really interesting concept and sounds like it’ll be great for my makeup brushes- for use when travelling and to maintain the shape when i wash them (now theres even less excuse to not wash them regularly)
December 7th, 2008 at 5:26 pm
i love Secret Jewell’s “On A Moonlit Night Filigree Necklace No 2″. the design is romantic and charming, and it would be a great match for my a couple of tops i own
December 7th, 2008 at 5:28 pm
the gloss from Express Effects Cosmetics looks promising- I am always on the lookout for lip glosses that are non-sticky yet have good lasting power and provide enough shine
December 7th, 2008 at 6:33 pm
WOw… Where do you find all these vintage sites? THe stuffs are lovely…
I went to secretjewellz, and I saw the On A Moonlit Night Filigree Necklace No 2. So lovely. when the light hits it, the sparkles are so… pretty… [saves link next to toolbar] Lol….

The Marie Antoinette Paris Dual Bracelet / Necklace from Secret Jewellz evoke the memories of summer days spent in idyllic France. Love the gorgeous design to bits!
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17364745
December 7th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
The Brush Guard can protect my brushes whenever I’m travelling with them! Super handy tool!
December 7th, 2008 at 9:42 pm
ohmygosh I really like the brush guard especially the Variety Pack. I even can put my kabuki in it! It seems very helpfull! some of my brushes (kabuki’s or synthetic brushes) need veeery long time to dry, so the brush guard sounds great!
December 7th, 2008 at 9:44 pm

Thanks for a great giveaway.
December 8th, 2008 at 3:38 am
From Secret Jewellz I like this one
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11726125
December 8th, 2008 at 3:39 am
From Thin Gloss the color Kiss Me, I’m Single would be absolutely perfect, the other one is too brownish for me
December 8th, 2008 at 3:40 am
And from the Brush guard the Variety Pack is of course best, something for every brush. Very nice idea btw!
December 8th, 2008 at 3:46 am
Secret Jewellz has such a nice old fashion feel to it! I love Bella Flower Bronze Hoop Earrings!
December 8th, 2008 at 3:50 am
I think it is impressive for the founder of Express Effects Cosmetics. She is quite talented! I wish to be inspired and make my own business!
December 8th, 2008 at 3:52 am
Wow, Brush Guard seems to be really cool. I never thought that you can keep your brush strong like that. Such an innovative idea!
December 8th, 2008 at 5:44 am
Oh I love fellow Etsy shops!
I really love the Secret Jewellz shop, and my very favorite item is the On a Moonlit Night Filigree Necklace No 2. Thanks for the chance to win!
December 8th, 2008 at 6:08 am
This was a really hard choice to make. I went over to all three sites and found that I liked almost everything I saw. But I really found myself drooling at secretjewellz.com! All the designs are so unique and gorgeous that it was almost too hard to choose only one! I finally decided that my absolute favorite is the Victorian Lantern Filagree Earrings. For one thing, they actually look like heirloom pieces, which is a great personal weakness of mine, and they also look as if they were made of encased jewels. Thanks for introducing us to this beautiful site!
December 8th, 2008 at 6:22 am
those bruch guards are quite innovative. i sent the link to my friend who does hair/makeup b/c i know that she’ll love them!
December 8th, 2008 at 6:23 am
Love the dragon fly locket from secretjewellz. That’s such a classic design, perfect for all ages of customers.
December 8th, 2008 at 6:30 am
it is so inspirational that April Morris, founder of Express Effects, Inc. is a single mom!!!
December 8th, 2008 at 6:33 am
I just love the The Joy Of Amethyst Filigree Earrings at the Secret Jewellz store. Those are really beautiful.
December 8th, 2008 at 8:57 am
I explored the Express Effects Cosmetic store. No doubt in my mind I would love the lipgloss because it is all natural. I have thin lips so I liked the idea of cinamon in it for plumping. I’d love the Hottie color! Thanks for the giveawa.
December 8th, 2008 at 9:07 am
I love the Old World Charm White Jade Earrings from SecretJewellz; they are so lovely and light and somehow still Baroque.
December 8th, 2008 at 9:08 am
I think the Whole Wheat color of the THINgloss is lovely, and I like that the product has vitamin E.
December 8th, 2008 at 9:17 am
Wow, Secretjewellz is amazing! I love Sweet Voilet Flights. Really evokes Spring!
December 8th, 2008 at 11:12 am
The brush guard ..
super awesome product that can preven the flyaway of my brush and maintain them in long term usage..
December 8th, 2008 at 12:12 pm
I visited the Express Effects Cometics website and I’m wowed. I’ve not in my life heard of a lip gloss that could suppress one’s appetite, uplift your moods and yet make your lips sexy and plump! That what you could call multitasking!
December 8th, 2008 at 12:21 pm
Secret Jewellz sells such gorgeous jewellery! the On a moonlight night filigree is really beautiful among the others there. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=15989327
December 8th, 2008 at 12:24 pm
The people who invented the Brush Guards are genuises! The Variety Pack is what I need for all my makeup brushes.
December 8th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
The Secret Jewellz site is fantastic for vintage jewellery!
While browsing, I found this gem of a necklace:
On A Moonlit Night Filigree Necklace No 2
http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=15989327
It looks like something out of a fairytale – what an elf queen would wear, containing mystical powers
December 8th, 2008 at 12:30 pm
I never knew that wearing makeup could enhance both my inner & outer beauty!
Express Effects utilize the Science of Emotional Makeup and infuses their products with “vibrational healing energies” – just what I need after a gruelling day at work!
December 8th, 2008 at 12:35 pm
I’ve been lemming the Brush Guards ever since I read about this nifty invention on jojoba’s website
It’s good for protecting my makeup brushes while drying (bristles stay in perfect shape & I can dry them upside down as recommended), in storage, & on the move (no snags or squashing, yay!)
The perfect accompaniment to well-loved makeup brushes
December 8th, 2008 at 12:45 pm
I instantly fell in love with the Amethyst Dragonfly Vintage Brass Earrings at Secret Jewellz: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=17430930.
December 8th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
Pure genius those Brush Guards! Seems like a must for anyone who wants to protect and preserve their cosmetic brush collection.
And by sliding the Brush Guard over your brushes’ handles while you’re using them, handles stay clean and new while letting you keep a good grip.
December 8th, 2008 at 1:14 pm
I absolutly love the When You Stand Alone Stand Tall – Clear Quartz Brass Necklace
December 8th, 2008 at 4:07 pm

December 8th, 2008 at 6:14 pm

December 8th, 2008 at 6:15 pm
i really like these earrings from secret jewellz! http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=14911157
they’re vintage and i like the colours!
December 8th, 2008 at 6:44 pm
Arh i want the brush guards! so that my kabuki doesnt have to suffer the fate like yours. :s and so that i can chuck those pathetic plastic/paper sheets i use to wrap my brushes!
December 8th, 2008 at 7:28 pm
I love the shade of Kiss Me I’m Single + it helps to suppress appetite and enhance a person’s emotions through the use of aromatherapy! amazing!!
December 8th, 2008 at 9:58 pm
