Whaaaaaaaaaaat is this?

It can be effective but it can also seem low quality and spammy. Really depends on who your audience is, and what kind of reputation you have as an Instagram.

Red bathing suit was amazing.

This thing https://www.instagram.com/p/BTmsykflZzx/...coclothing I used to run giveaways and get amazing response but after that thing went viral it almost seems like instagram limits reach for keywords like "win" "giveaway" "contest"

Well that's true but I saw it first hand limit reach and engagement as opposed to the same giveaway a month ago.

It's all about context, really. 

Giveaways can work well or they can work not well. Like I said already depends on your audience and what sort of reputation you have. GIveaways aren't a new concept, people have been using them to grow socials for a long time now. Just depends on whether or not the person running the growth campaign knows what they're doing or not.
