Congratulations to Dlori! A long-time reader won this lovely gloss!
To celebrate the Academy Awards, I decided to give away one of Angelina Jolie's favorite lip glosses, Chantecaille's Brilliant Gloss in Love. I have an extra one, and it seemed appropriate to share the love.As I mentioned earlier today (see this link), Angelina did a quick lip gloss touch-up with Love during the Golden Globes. It was the television shot seen around the world as she used this elegant gloss on her amazing lips. Immediately, Love sold out. The demand was that great!
Brilliant Gloss is made from a hydrating and enriching formula that imparts long-lasting color and brilliant shine. An exclusive "jellified" system creates long-lasting wear; it almost has the look of jelly, with its sheer, colorful movement. Microspheres of organic wheat protein-linked sugars create soft, supple, and plumped lips (without any tingling feeling) for a perfect pout. Among the ingredients, Brilliant Gloss lists green tea extract and vegetal-linked polysaccharides to protect the delicate skin on our lips. Like other Chantecaille makeup, it's fabulous.
Here's a swatch of Love on my arm. It's a light, petal pink. Don't you think it's a perfect color for spring?
How can you enter to win? Just leave a comment here once. After you comment, feel free to send me an e-mail at bestthingsinbeautycontests@gmail.com and identify your comment. You can never be too careful about sharing an e-mail address you care about on a blog, so feel free to follow this step (an alternative is to code your e-mail, e.g., myname at gmail dot com, in your comment).
You can "earn" a second entry by tweeting this contest. Just make sure to include "@BTiBeauty" (without the quotes) in your tweet. I will tweet the contest this evening, and you can simply retweet it to earn that second entry. You can earn a third entry by following the blog - either here or on Twitter (any entrant who is already a follower will automatically earn the follower point, but you can save me time by telling me you're a follower in your comment). I can't track followers through a third-party service, so you need to be on Google's list for me to verify the entry.
The deadline for entries will be Saturday, March 5, at midnight. The next morning, I will use a random number generator (random.org) to select the winner. I will e-mail the winner at that time. The winner will have 48 hours to reply to my message and provide a shipping address. After 48 hours, the prize will be forfeited, and another winner will be selected. Make sure to check your e-mail - and look in your spam folder - when the contest ends.
This contest will be open to anyone anywhere in the world. I will ship the gloss uninsured (the insurance costs as much as the lip gloss, and I can't insure a small Priority box - rules, annoying USPS rules). I will also provide proof of shipping, if necessary. I am going to take a chance that both mail systems will deliver the box - yours and mine - without loss, theft, or destruction! Let's see how it works if we have an "international winner." So far, my luck with international shipping hasn't been very good.
Good luck!
P.S. Don't forget I have another giveaway contest active until Monday night (February 28) at midnight. You can enter to win Tarte's Provocateur Amazonian Clay Shimmering Powder.
