Beauty by Krystal Giveaway Winnings!

Beauty by Krystal was hosting a giveaway on her blog in celebration of receiving 1,000 likes on her Facebook page.   With the giveaway she was awarding one lucky winner $100 in beauty products! I entered using the Rafflecopter app not really anticipating winning.  My luck isn’t always the greatest with giveaways or raffles, but I will say lately my online luck has been changing with online giveaways and raffles.

Anyway, I entered the giveaway and a few weeks later I received an e-mail from Krystal letting me know that I had actually won the giveaway.  It was great and I was excited because the products she was giving away were a lot of items I’d like to try out but had yet to, with the exception of a small few that I had tried.  She also graciously provided a few beauty samples as well.

I have been a longstanding follower of Krystal’s blog – it all started back in the early days of LUUUX where I followed Krystal’s beauty posts and then began following her with Google Friend Connect.  If you haven’t checked out her blog, I highly suggest you do!

Once again - thank you Krystal!

Jordana Giveaway Winnings - Blues

A while back Jordana was offering a giveaway both on their Facebook and Twitter page. It was, I believe a month long giveaway, where every day different color combinations of products were being given away.  I signed up for the giveaway and received notification on Twitter that I had won.  Interestingly enough I won the blue shades which was coincidental because I have a minor obsession with blue nail polish.  Not sure why, but it’s just a shade of polish I’ve always liked.

I have tried some Jordana products in the past and I have enjoyed what I’ve tried.  I do own the easyliner so I’ll end up giving this back-up away at some point.  But here’s what I won!

-          Jordana Glitters nail polish in Carnival

-          Jordana Color Effects Eye Shadow in Twice the Fun

-          Jordana Easyliner for Eyes in Denim Blue

QUESTION:

Have you tried out any Jordana products?

CVS Beauty Club Rimmel Twitter Giveaway

I entered a Twitter giveaway through CVS Beauty Club.  In order to be entered to win, all I had to do was re-tweet CVS Beauty tweet about the giveaway. After the giveaway ended, I was sent a direct message from CVS Beauty Club and I’ll be honest I was completely surprised!

I was advised I would receive my prize within 4-6 weeks.  That timeframe had actually passed by a few weeks, so I sent a direct message back asking if perhaps it was sent out and got delivered to the incorrect address.  A few days later, I received a next-day air package from CVS Beauty Club containing my goodies.

Here’s what I received:

-          Rimmel BB Cream 9-in-1 Skin Perfecting Super Makeup w/ SPF25 in Medium

-          Rimmel Stay Glossy in 160 Stay My Rose

-          Rimmel Scandaleyes Shadow Stick in 004 Guilty Grey

-          Rimmel Scandaleyes Sow Off Mascara in Extreme Black

QUESTION:

Have you tried any of these Rimmel products?

Shannon’s HED (Hair Education Defined) Giveaway Winnings!

About a month or so ago, a beauty blogger, StephsBeauty was hosting a giveaway on her blog hosted by HED (Hair Education Defined).  She tested out some of their products and hosted a giveaway featuring the three products she enjoyed the most.  I believe the products retail for about $100 for the three that I received.  The package was shipped direct from HED and included the three bottles of product, a packing list and an information card on their line.  I’m really excited to try the items out to see how they do for my hair.

Here’s what I received:

HED-Overdirect Shine Serum

According to the brochure this product is “A shining star in the new collection, this lightweight designer hair ‘exlier’ works in sync with the cut to create maximum body, shine and fabulous finish.  What’s the message in this bottle? Pure magic! pH 4.5”

HED-Depth Deep Conditioning Mask

According to the brochure this product can “Achieve a deeper level of added care and repair for dry, damaged or chemically-treated hair in need of a more therapeutic treatment.  Rich with antioxidants, grape seed oil and green leaf help to repair and protect the hair.  pH 4.5.”
