Sorry guys, I thought this was on here already.
I won one of these this week, tomorrow is the last day.

https://twitter.com/Benefit_UK_IRE

Between 12 and 2, tweet @Benefit_UK_IRE with the hashtag #hervanaversary - they will retweet 20 messages. If your message is retweeted they will follow you so you can DM them your address to get a gorgeous Benefit Umbrella.

You can send as many as you like, I must have sent 15 messages and my last one was retweeted.

Examples of tweets that have won are "winning a @Benefit_UK_IRE umbrella would definitly make being ill today feel a whole lot better #NoPressure :) xxx" and "@Benefit_UK_IRE stunning umbrella, I would love one. Happy #hervanaversary"

Sorry I didn't post it before :o

    Also just to say, try and send a message once they have retweeted the first person as they seem to tend to look at incoming messages then. (obviously they split it up betweent the 2 hours)

    They only retweet people who have sent them them a message with the hashtag and something along side it. Snow/Rain/I've entered all week.... type of tweets seem to win.

    I won with ''Fingers crossed!!! I'd love one!!!'' Make sure you are using the daily hashtag as it changes every day too :) GL all x

    Well done! Wait until they follow you, (I could only DM them 15 minutes after being followed) and then type Benefit (next to the egg) and it will come up, pop in your name and address, and send :)
