NARS I WANT YOU LIP GLOSS SET GIVE-A-WAY-CLOSED

5 Mini Lip Glosses in Striptease, Greek Holiday, Turkish Delight, Orgasm, and Dolce Vita

This has a $76 value but can be found for a limited time at Sephora for $45. I think this is a pretty awesome give-a-way prize, so if you don't mind, I'm going to make you work a little for this! So here's what I would like for you to do:

1. Be a follower, of course!

2. Repost this in your side bar or do a post about my contest.

3. This is a biggie---go to my archives and pick two of my product reviews. I want you to pick two products that you have actually tried--loved or hated--and share your experience! You must post the links (meaning post YOUR review as a comment to that product, not in your comment to enter) in your entry post!! Please, no one line responses! I really want you to get involved!!
I apologize for not being clear on what I wanted here. Please go to two of my reviews and comment. In your comment, I'd like you to tell me your experience on that product. That way, when readers go to my reviews, they can see your opinion too! More helpful for everyone that way!
 Please don't post your review under the comments for the give-a-way!! Post them under the comment section of the product you are talking about!!

4. Followers who have commented on my blog, prior to this posting, at least three times have three extra entries!
Also, to be more clear, I'd like two new comments, prior comments don't count! =D

I will count previous sumbissions because I was unclear, but from now on, all entries must be done this way! Thanks! =)

***IF YOU DON'T MEET ALL REQUIREMENTS, YOU WILL BE DISQUALIFIED***

Open to international followers as well! Good luck to all! I will announce an closing date later!

i am a follower already dear^^

the product reviews that i also tried are True Color Eyeshadow quad in Sandy Corals and Smooth Mineral Powder Foundation. I love the eyeshadow quad and its in neutral colors and about the foundation its ok to set it after i put my liquid foundie but i mostly used the pressed powder one in their simply pretty line(i think it is only available here in Philippines).and also our version of mineral powder has a brush on the top.^^

i am also an Avon Representative here in my country and i also get discounts on their products^^

Jenni said...

hi !
1) I'm a follower :)
thanks for having this great giveaway :)

2) I blogged about it here:
http://lifeandlensofbeauty.blogspot.com/2010/02/giveaways-this-month.html

3)I picked your reivew of NARS Orgasm blush here (http://nvbeauty.blogspot.com/search/label/NARS). I owned one but then i swapped away, realizing that I love it so I swap it back again on MUA :) I love the pigmentation it gives, and the versatile looks you can pair it with! The only complaint I have, is not about this shade/blush though, I absolutely HATE NARS packaging, the black plastic rubber will turn sticky after a while (I heard many others who have the same happening to their blush compact etc). And the black rubber makes it very difficult to clean, i hate it so much i probably won't repurchase NARS products anymore, and the packaging feels cheap. :(

The other product review I picked is UDPP (Urban decay primer potion) here: http://nvbeauty.blogspot.com/2009/12/urban-decay-primer-potion.html
I like this primer because it gives vibrancy to my eyeshadows and liners, helps them to stay on well, love it so much :)! the downside is the packaging makes it hard to determine how much is left and it will make much product wastage with a non-transparent tube. Oh well, I'll repuchase anyway i guess! coz this stuff is amazing.

p.s. some international readers might not be so lucky to have their hands on /tried /heard of some of the brands you reviewed, some products arent' available outside the US. i.e. some might not have the opportunity to actually try the products you reviewed :)

Nicole said...

Thank you to everyone who has entered so far. I want to make sure everyone understands what I mean about when I ask you to comment on the reviews I've done, as I'm not sure everyone does. =)

Please go to the review you'd like to comment on. Make a comment ON THAT comments page. NOT the comment section for this give-a-way. That way, others can read your reviews and will be more helpful. If you've made comments in the give-a-way section or posted them on your blog (which is way awesome!) I do urge you to go back and post them on my review as well!

@Jennifer, you make a good point about not all the products I've reviewed not being available to international readers. I guess I figured with online shopping being as big as it is today and with AVON being sold almost everywhere, I thought everyone should be able to do this. If you can't find two things, let me know and you can comment on another type of post, example The Threes of Me. Cool?

3. I picked this 2 products: BH cosmetics 28 neutral palette (http://nvbeauty.blogspot.com/2010/02/bh-cosmetics-28-neutral-palette.html) and Rimmel London Smokey eye Palette (http://nvbeauty.blogspot.com/2010/01/rimmel-london-smokey-eye-palette.html)
My neutral palette is from Ebay, but it's the same thing. I <3LOVE<3 this palette. The colors are great for a natural look, just what I use most of the days. I always use this eyeshadows with a primer; like that the staying power and the color payoff are great.
I don't really like the Rimmel London Palette... The color payoff is horrible!

Thank you for this opportunity! =D
