So I recently entered this Superdrug competition on a whim and actually won. This competition wasn't broadcast as much as you'd think otherwise I wouldn't have won because I actually entered after the deadline but I'm assuming that they didn't have their targeted amount so I was invited. When I got the email, I was really confused, reading it and immediately I sent a screenshot to my friend. My head was reeling in with the fact that I actually won. It was a weird out of body experience. The date was for two days after I received it at West field in London. I was able to invite a friend along so she came with me. I actually had university that day however it turned out to be a half day so I managed to get to Westfield at 4pm which gave me an hour to relax before I had to meet them. I was nervous. When it was 5pm, I went to the superdrug store and found there to be only 5 winners waiting and I had already found out that there were 25 winners, plus 25 friends who were invited too. I was in line, just behind 5 people when I was told to wait outside for my friend who was running late.
At this point, it was already 5.30pm and Tanya and Zoe were also running late, but a lot more winners were there so we had a good 20 people who were in front of us. It took forever for us to meet them plus it was really hot in the store so people were getting restless. I think the first 10 people got a good 5-10 minutes with them and after that, it was much more fast paced and we were only given a few minutes with them.
When I finally did meet them, I said, Hi and hugged them both. Tanya asked 'Sorry, what's your name?' and I told them. After that, I got Tanya to sign her Candy Glam Palette and Zoe to sign her Blissful Mistful spray and I told her that it was my favourite product of hers and she 'awwed' and said 'that's so sweet' to me. Tanya asked 'how my day went' and I told them about university, and said that I have a blog and it's all thanks to them'. I was a mess and I was so shy to even look at them but I did get a selfie with them. I was disappointed that I didn't get to put them on my snapchat story or even get to ask them any questions but that was all down to me because I was nervous.
They're both gorgeous and I still cannot believe that I met them. It's funny because I remember when I first started watching them on youtube which was at least 3 years ago and thinking they were so relatable and were like a sister I never had. I only have brothers so a lot of my favourite female youtubers have kind of taken the role as my sister and I take what they say or have said as serious advice. I would like to thank Superdrug for holding this competition, and thank Nicole who sent me that very email saying I had won. I also want to that all the members that were there helping out with the event for trying to make it as smooth as possible. Thank you Tanya Burr and Zoe for meeting me and I hope we can be friends.
Oh yeah, and I got a gift from Zoe which had some of her Christmas Range in it, so thanks for that. I did try to get a better image of the Christmas grotto that they had but I wasn't allowed to plus, my friend wasn't allowed to film me meeting them which is disappointing as I would have loved that as something to look back on.
Thanks for reading and see you soon!
