Do my survey and enter to win 8 polishes!

4:05PM, May 9th: SURVEY ERROR HAS BEEN CORRECTED. Those who have done it once can do it again if they really want to. Those who stopped in between, please start it again from the following URL: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/M2RPQHL. The link has been corrected.

For all those wondering what to get me for my birthday, here's something to consider: do my survey and help me out with my research! ;)

(No, really, I seriously need your help. This survey is to help me finish up my second-year project, which is due in about 18 days...)

And in return, I am offering up eight pretty lil polishes! Namely, these...

Color Club Gossip Column, Color Club She's So Glam, Nubar Essence, Nubar Jewel

Quirius OK is Me, Quirius Sweet Mimosa, Barielle Shades, Barielle Night Moves

How to enter:
  1. Read these instructions first. :)
  2. Complete my 15-20 minute survey, located here.
  3. AFTER YOU ARE DONE WITH THE SURVEY, enter yourself in the ContestMachine widget below:
  4. To get more chances to win, please pass on the survey URL https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/M2RPQHL on to your friends and family (especially guys because most of you are female and I need some male data too). For every person you get to participate, you will get an extra chance to win these wonderful polishes! Email polishorperish@gmail.com or comment in this entry with your email address and the number of people you have been able to recruit for the survey. They MUST, however, finish the survey before you claim your extra chances. Please let me know ONLY after you are assured that they have finished the survey. Otherwise, it's not playing fair.
  5. To get three extra chances to win, post this on your blog or Tweet about it. You don't even have to mention to promote Polish or Perish in any way; just be sure to give people the survey's link: hhttps://www.surveymonkey.com/s/M2RPQHL. Email polishorperish@gmail.com or comment in this entry with your email address and a link so I can see you have indeed posted about the survey.
  6. GIVEAWAY CLOSES ON MAY 14th, 2010 @ 11:59PM EST.
Unlike the last survey giveaway I did, I have NO way of knowing whether you have completed the survey or not before entering the giveaway. PLEASE don't enter unless you've done the survey: it's not fair to the other people who have taken the time to help me out. There will be at least one giveaway coming up this summer (to celebrate the blog's first anniversary) so it's not your only chance to win something from this blog! So if you don't want to do the survey, that's fine... just don't enter the giveaway. :)

Please let me know ASAP if there are any problems with the survey. I checked it a couple of times but I've been staring at it for hours and hours and my eyes have blurred over.

Thank you SO MUCH for your help, everyone! There was a phenomenal response to the last survey I did and that helped me so greatly (and it has shaped some of the research which I will be pursuing this summer). I am extremely grateful to have such a wonderful and generous readership for our blog.


...now, I will continue writing my second year paper. Because that's what birthdays are about. :(
