I recently heard a compliment from my friend that I am the friend that everyone needs. Reminds her of things which she mentioned to me, such as an important event or her closed ones’ birthday, be there for her when she needs someone to confide in. I guess this makes me a gift to her? :)
My gift to all my friends and family is the everlasting friendship and closeness that I can offer to them. :) However, they are a much bigger gift to me because without them, I will have noone to share my gift with! <3
Thank you!
A silent reader I am, but makeupstash is a gift to me just simply because:
– I read it for updates on latest makeup trends
– I’m always inspired by the latest makeup musings that I’ll try to create similar looks
– I’ll come by to see reviews of certain products whenever I’m in need of one
my lovely niece! i smile whenever i think of her and her laugh brings me back to a time when we were innocent and happy :)
I’m a gift to my husband because everyday I’m thankful and appreciative of everything he has done and how he works hard to give my son and I indulgences.
Happy Holidays!!!!
My best friend has been a gift to me by being there for me.
My friends and family are the biggest gift to me! :) and thank you for having this awesome giveaway!
From the very day that we came to this world, we are the gift to our parents. Every single people that came into our life are a gift to matter how in the people treats you. There always a learning point and an experience in every encountered.
My friends are my greatest gift. They support me through the tough times and are always there for me when I was at a low point in my life. Couldn’t have asked for a greater gift from God.
God bless Mag! And Merry Christmas!
Love,
Emily
i consider my parents a gift to me because without them I wont be able to experience the wonders of life :)
To me, my parents are a gift that God has sent me. Without them i would not have been able to be here, it was their hard work that allowed me to be able to live comfortably. That is why to me my parents are an invaluable gift.
Thanks for the giveaway!
My mom and my cat are definitely the best gifts in my life! They’re the two loves of my life and they’re always there for me, whether rain or shine :) and I know that at the same time, I am also a gift to them! for they love me with all they’ve got despite my imperfections, I feel so blessed to have been given these gifts in my life! :)
i just got married this year and my husband has been an absolute gift by being the best whether it’s supporting what I want to do or listening to me when I am down. never felt happier in my whole life before!
thanks for the giveaway <3
My mum is one of greatest gift to me. She has been always there for me since Day 1. Selfless, motivating and I will never forget the life lessons and cooking lessons she gives me :)
Thanks for this awesome giveaway!! Happy holiday!!
My best friend and i stood by each other when we realised we were cheated of money by a scam. We went to the police station together and texted all night to discuss what we can do. She was supportive of all my crazy ideas to make sure we get the scammer to face the crimes made :) friends through thick and thin make friendship sweeter.
Everytime I smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.
My parents are a gift to me. They always go the extra mile to make sure I am well taken care of and give me the best I could ever ask for. Thankful for them every single day! Them being healthy and with me everyday is the best gift I could ever ask for.
My parents are gifts to me for they are ever so supportive and encouraging to me! I am extremely grateful to them for bringing me up and providing me with life’s necessities.
Hi Mag!
What an exciting Xmas giveaway!
My husband is a gift to me as he is the best thing that has happened to me :) I love him very much and am very glad to have his support in many aspects of my life. He is my pillar and my strength. We are having a baby next May and I am very excited and looking forward to his arrival! He will be so precious and loved by both our families :)
I hope to win the Penhaligon’s Minature Fragrance Collection for Ladies :) Because I’ve read so much about these fragrances from your blog since their arrival! But they are so expensive… hopefully I can win this set and try out the miniatures! :)
Have a great Christmas, Mag!
You will be a gift if you pick me as one of the winner <3
Okay seriously. I love making people laugh with my jokes and having fun with my friends. I would never leave my friends in the lurch.
Would love to win Philosophy Winter Escape Christmas Set.
I’d say that my husband is a special gift from GOD to me. Like our marriage vow, he has been always there for me, sharing the good times and lending his support in bad times, especially so during this year when times were really tough for me.
Thanks for the giveaway and Merry Christmas in advance!
How someone is a gift to me:
I have a friend that I message every day and most of the time we just say “Good morning” and “good night” (sometimes without any other messages during the day haha!) But knowing that I can wake up to someone else’s greeting and knowing that the person is thinking of me before that person sleeps makes me happy :D In that way, my friend is a gift to me.
Hey Mag!
I’d like to think that my 3 older brothers are a huge gift to me. They’ve been there whenever I needed someone to talk to. They’re my playmates, my punching bags and my comforting ears. I can never imagine having any brother less. Older brothers are a gift indeed.
Have a great Christmas Mag and wishing you all the very best for the coming year! More bountiful makeup!
My mother is a gift to me!
Most parents would say that their children are gifts from god, this is nevertheless true. However to me, rather being the gift to my mother, my mother is the gift to me. Without my mother, I will definitely not exist. And even if I existed, I will not be able to grow up strong without her. And to be a gift to her, I would like to give her cosmetics to pamper herself and make her happy about being pretty & fabulous :)
Hi Mag!
Thank you for holding the 2012 Christmas Giveaways!!! :)
My mom is definitely the biggest gift I can ever ask for. No matter how busy she is, she will always be there for me, showering me with her unconditional love. She may be naggy at times, but I know, it is because she cares for me. :)
My family is one of the greatest gift for me because they give me abundant love and support me when no one really cares about me. Really thankful for this lovely family!
my mom is truly a heaven-sent gift to me. she is someone who is always there for me through my best and my worst times. even when i treat her horribly due to anger, she will always think about what’s best for me :) love my mom!
My late mum is a gift to me and I am forever grateful to her. If not for her, I won’t be here today. She stayed strong and worked hard to take care of me and my siblings single handledly after my dad passed away. She is selfless and is willing to sacrifice to provide for the family. She is the best mum one could ever have.
What an exciting giveaway!!!
I am a gift to my soon to be born son as I have taken care of him through all the pregnancy complications and my husband is a gift to me as he has taken great care of me through this challenging time! :o)
On to the important part! I would like to say that my FAMILY is the someone that is a gift to me. I personally think that am very lucky to be born into a large, loving and close knitted family. Throughout my entire life, my fam has served as a constant source of encouragement, advice, comfort and love. I owe my achievements in life to them as they are truly the ones who have stood behind me all the way. I know some people in this world are not as fortunate as I am. Hence, I really appreciate this gift and thank God daily for it.
So Lady Luck, shine on me! This poor student here on a budget wants to win something nice for her mum for Christmas!
Thank you, Mag!
Have a Merry, Merry Christmas!
How I am a gift to someone: I help my parents take care of my younger brothers at home! :) I cook their meals, clean up after them and even bring them to school when it’s raining or if their bags are heavy.
How someone is a gift to me: My mom is an absolute treasure because she’s very supportive in all my endeavors and encourages me to make the best of opportunities. She’s also a good role model to me because she doesn’t compromise her values and works very hard in he job.
P.S. If I were ever soo lucky, I would love to win the Burberry Body Rose Gold Eau de Parfum – Limited Edition or the Benefit She’s So…Jetset! <3 Couldn't resist telling you my faves! :) Have been lusting after them since I saw them in stores :D
I am always generous to the others, informing them of the latest contest and giveaway. This is because I sincerely believe in the spirit of giving and taking unconditionally. Sometimes, when you take a step back, you will experience some miracles, as in the others giving back to you unexpectedly
We are all gifts to other people – My boyfriend is definitely a gift to me. I always wondered how someone who isn’t blood related to me can tolerate all my nonsense that sometimes even blood related family can’t. So the first person I think of as a gift to me is him. :)
Thanks so much! :)
my little cousins are a gift to me as they always bring joy and laughter whenever they come to my house during the weekends.
Thank you for the giveaway
I believe my most precious cat is a gift to me. She has light up my life with fun, laughter, love and I can’t live without her.
Dear Mag, thank you for this awesome giveaway!
My twin sister is the biggest gift to me, because we are really very similar in many ways and share common interests (shopping & makeup for example!). We know each other’s thoughts just by exchanging glances. Really thankful for my sister/bff!
a personal chef, a listening ear, a always-available hug, a loving kiss, a best friend, a wonderful father… my husband is a gift to me that’s beyond anything else I’ve ever had. I can’t imagine life without him and hope I’m as good a gift to him as he is to me.
Mag, I’m on all three social media platforms… I’m sure you know how to find me *grins*
I go by the quote by Mother Tersa who say that “Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.”
To be able to give is always a blessing, always a pleasure to be able to do so.. Blessed xmas :)
Wee… awesome giveaways ^__^ <3
Hmm… I think living in this world is a gift itself…
My parents give me my life… (The grestest gift ever)
I gift my parents a daughter …. (kekkeee)
My dogs give me joys and love…
I give them(my doggies) love, shelter, foods and being their slave.
It's a wonderful life full of gifts ^_^
hi mag,
this year is a very special year. my dearest baby boy is the best gift i have ever received. i wake up everyday in awe of the little human that i have created. i am in awe of the little things he learn everyday. things that may seem so simple to us yet such a huge step/milestone for them. i thank God everyday, for blessing me with this lovely boy. my days seem shorter, life seems happier. may your 2013 filled with extra joy and awesome blessings!
All my girlfriends are a gift to me! Being the youngest in the group, I feel their love for me ALL the time!! I always thank god for putting them in my life and appreciate all the times they’ve been around for me! This is the most precious gift anyone could have!
My bubby is definitely the best gift to me. He’s kind, caring, understand and loving to me.
I’m the gift to my parents. They are married for 10 years and after I was born. That’s why I’m treated specially.
Awesome giveway!!! You are a gift yourself- sharing so much fab news and updates.
My students are the greatest gift to me so far. I’m in a job that doesn’t pay as well as a full fledged teacher. But every year when the PSLE results are out. The teary thankful eyes that look at your or some shun away from you is what pushes us on. And every little positive change a child makes, be it in terms of behaviour or results, motivates us to carry on.
Thanks Mag, for this giveaway!
How someone is a gift to me: My bestfriend is a godsend because she has been a true friend despite the distance (now that I live overseas). She has been my no. 1 fan in all that I do and it’s truly the little things i.e.like how she still sends me snail mail despite her being very busy at university. I love her to death and I am thankful everyday that I have her in my life <3
It would absolutely make my day if I win the Kiehl's set or the Laura Mercier set. I have been wanting to try them so thanks for this lovely giveaway and the opportunity to do so. Will be crossing my fingers! :)
My best friend is a gift to me for she showed me how to accept myself for who I am, to dare to pursue my passions and dreams without fear and she is always there for me at every stage of my life so I know I will never walk alone.
Hi Mag,
Thanks for organizing this!
Being the only child to my parents, I would shamelessly say that I am the best gift to my parents! Haha! Merry Xmas to you”
I’ve recently found out about your blog from the Mandom Singapore post you did about a year ago :) To be honest, I have been then browsing and reading through your reviews about a few make-up products that I would love to try but they’re all unaffordable to me (as of now).
Sharing a story of being a gift to someone. I just realized that I have been so important to the one special person that makes me look forward to my day every morning. Even he, himself is really a gift for me as well. Having told that just yesterday morning, his day was not so good as he had gotten back his results from his lecturer. The other thing that worsen his mood was this other girl from his classmate (who used to hit on him) just gives him the vibe of feeling disgusted. When I came to look for him, he told me his day got better afterwards. My smile made him smile throughout the whole day. It’s like saying that I’m his source of energy. Every single day without fail, telling me that I’m pretty as of natural beauty. Having to hear it coming from a whole-heartedly person, I really felt blessed, touched and gifted to have someone like him.
P/s. I would really be thankful and grateful and really, REALLY appreciate it if I were chosen! I haven’t had a perfume in my whole entire life. It would be really nice if a perfume was gifted to me. I would love to share my lovely scent to that special someone. Thank you for sharing this giveaway :) Merry X’mas and may God bless you!
