Giveaways

There are so many interesting things about makeup (dude, don’t even get me started on concealer ’cause we’ll be here FOR DAYS, I tell ya!), but one of my favorites is eyeshadow.

Eyeshadow.

I just love the stuff, and all forms of it, too. Powder, stick, cream — it’s all good. And fun.

Today’s giveaway takes us to the exciting World of Cream Stick Shadows.

Well, I think it’s exciting. When I think of all the layering possibilities — and all the combos! — I could do with this six-piece prize package of Neutrogena’s Crease Proof Eye Shadows, it boggles the mind. 🙂

Summer might seem like a zillion cold days away, but it’ll be here before ya know it.

At least that’s what I tell myself every time I put on that third outer layer before leaving the house…

Stepping outside lately involves an infinity scarf, a thick jacket, a zippered hoodie and a button-down sweater. It’s a process! 🙂

Barely a week into winter, and I’m already thinking about summer.

Yup, I can’t wait until it’s pool weather again, heading to the pool with just the essentials — ya know, a towel, sunscreen and a tube of my favorite poolside lipgloss by Neutrogena.

When the weather heats up I always — always have at least one of these moisturizing, lightweight and shiny glosses with me. They have SPF 20 (score!) and just the right amount of tint to add some color to my lips.

But that doesn’t mean they’re only for summer. I think they look just as cute this time of year, and I actually have a couple tubes in my purse right now.

Today’s giveaway features all nine of the MoistureShine Lip Soother shades by Neutrogena. Wouldn’t you (and your lips) love to be covered in glossy, hydrating color right meow? If so you’ll definitely want to enter today’s giveaway.

On the seventh day of giveaways,
Neutrogena gave to me,
Seven blush-es in a pear tree.

Allow me to clarify. For the winner of today’s giveaway, no, today’s prize package does not include a pear tree (the shipping would be a nightmare, LOL!), but I’m guessing you’d be cool with that because you’d be getting an entire wardrobe of Neutrogena blushes.

Yup, yup. 🙂

For natural-looking, pinch-your-cheeks color, look no further than today’s prize package of three Healthy Skin Blends blushes and four Healthy Skin Custom Glow Blush & Bronzers.

I recommend these to friends all the time. If you’re looking to wear a little color on your cheeks but don’t want it to compete with the rest of your look, give ’em a try. They’re some of my favorite drugstore products out there now.

Time to get cheeky in three, two, one…

The power of plants compels you… The power of plants compels you!

Did I ever tell you that I came *this close* to being a botany major? I always had a hard time putting the pieces together in my head when it came to chem and bio, but botany was the one thing that made total sense to me.

I think it was because plants are just everywhere, so I was always thinking about them. I’d pass a garden on the way to the library at school and think “Oooh… The Calvin Cycle!” or be eating pineapple slices at lunch and have the words “crassulacean acid metabolism” pop into my brain.

LOL! What a nerd…

I still think plants are super cool, and they’re the driving force behind today’s giveaway, which features products from the Neutrogena Naturals line.

Neutrogena Naturals is a line of cleansers, moisturizers and treatments made without chemical sulfates, parabens, petrolatum, dyes and phthalates. Powdered by the plants, products in the line are made from 94% plant-derived ingredients.

“We leveraged natural plant derived ingredients where possible and the average of our line is 94% natural. The remaining ingredients were thoughtfully chosen from a comprehensive array of safe and pure ingredients to ensure safety and accessibility. For example, we made the choice to use synthetic fragrances over natural fragrances because synthetic fragrances offer more hypoallergenic options which ensures that the final product will be safe and gentle. But we’re working everyday to improve our technologies to find even more natural ingredients we can use.”

It’s all about gentle, and it’s designed to be used at home (a lot less expensive than a spa).

Neutrogena says that after a single use, you’ll see softer, more luminous skin.
