Being Just Melody, Hauls

I Made Partner + Other Randomness

Thanks to all my lovely subscribers, I hit 2 milestones in the past week.

I have over 1,000 subbies now and I made partner with YouTube. What does making partner on YouTube mean? Not THAT much but there are some perks, like ad revenue sharing, adding a banner to my channel, and choosing my own thumbnail.

It was just back in November that I had 500 subbies, so to get to 1,000 so quickly is awesome! I appreciate everyone that is subbed and if you’re not… Just do it! It’s free 🙂

As for the other randomness in this video, I have 2 small hauls from Zoya and Ulta. I also announce the winner of the Fire & Ice giveaway, and tell you how I fixed my NARS blush that broke!

Also, you have a chance to win 2 CDs… Log on to PopCultureFix.comto win a copy of Keri Hilson’s new album No Boys Allowed.

PLUS a special giveaway for just my subbies, I have a copy of Keyshia Cole’s new album Calling All Hearts for TWO lucky winners. To enter leave a comment on this video. (Only comments on the video page will qualify, must be subscribed.)

GOOD LUCK!
