Happy Birthday To Us! And Mega GIVEAWAY!

Myself and Rachelle have been on blog holliers this week; Rach is lounging on some sunny beach in Crete and I was doing the headless chicken trying to keep up with work without her! But we couldn’t let this week go by without marking a particularly important milestone in Dolly Rouge history. This week, Dolly Rouge turned 1!

Happy 1st Birthday, Kokosanka! :)
I can’t believe it’s been a year already. While it feels like just the other day we were tentatively putting up our first posts hoping for a good reception (or any reception at all!), we’ve managed to rack up 334 posts, nearly 2,000 comments and 30,000 words. We’ve had the pleasure of being recognised by brands and PR agents, receiving event invitations and products for review. But most of all, we’ve had the honour of being welcomed into a community of witty, encouraging, intelligent, inspirational, like-minded women. Thank you ladies, you’ve given us more than you realise.

So, it’s time to give something back. To celebrate our bloggiversary we have a bumper giveaway in store. We’ve pulled together some of our favourite products of the past year to pass on to you. We hope you like!


Everything you need from Soap and Glory to pamper yourself from top to toe – Clean On Me, The Righteous Butter, Mist You Madly, Heel Genius, Hand Food and a bunny shower puff!


A selection of 9 items from the limited edition Coolibri Collection: Eyeshadow Pens in 01 Precious Nectar, 02 Birds Flying High, 03 Virgin Forest, 04 Exotica; Nectar Gloss in 01 Birds Flying High and 03 Gorgeous Blossom; Colour Refreshing Lip Balm and Ultimate Nail Lacquer in 02 A Twist of Lemon and Jelly Cheek Tint in 01 Abloom.

Enliven limp locks with our favourite volumising tools: Hair Tools Snooze Rollers (kinda dupe of the infamous Sleep In Rollers, but with varied sizes), Schwarzkopf got2b Powder’ful Volumising Powder and a Head Jog pintail comb.
