Prettymaking's First Giveaway!

*The giveaway is closed! The winner has been contacted!*

Hi everybody! Well, I am an impatient person and instead of waiting to hit 200 followers (Edit: I have hit 200! Yay!) (Edit#2: I have hit 300!! Wow!), I decided to just get started with my blog's first ever giveaway. First you will see what is being given away, then the rules to enter! (Oh--and yes, this is open internationally!)


*The items being given away:

• First, all items are never opened, still in original packaging.
• Second, these are items that I have hand-picked myself. I tried to choose items that any person could use--items that aren't dependent on skin-type or color, and are versatile for anyone, no matter their style.

We start with two "mini" sizes of products I love:

- Boscia's MakeUp-BreakUp Cool Cleansing Oil, 1.86 fl oz: I love this cleansing oil. This how I use it: I use the oil first to break up my makeup, so my normal cleanser can cleanse my skin and not have a barrier of makeup in the way!

- Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray, .51 fl oz: I use this makeup setting spray every day before I leave my apartment.

Second set of items: a universally flattering lip color and an amazing eyeliner.

- Clinique Almost Lipstick in "Black Honey", full-sized: If you haven't heard of Black Honey, you just need to Google it. This is always in my purse, and more than likely whoever wins this giveaway will end up loving this just as much as I do.

- Make Up For Ever Aqua Liner in #14, full-sized: Not familiar with these Aqua Liners? They are amazing. Color #14 (Diamond Multicolor Black) is a gorgeous black that has beautiful multicolored sparkle throughout. Not convinced? Go to Sephora, and swatch it. You will love it.

Finally! The "Big Kahuna" of the giveaway:

- Urban Decay Naked Palette, full-sized: This palette is coveted by many makeup lovers. Not only does it have 12 beautiful colors, it comes with a travel size of Urban Decay's Primer Potion Original (seen in first picture of this post), as well as Urban Decay's Good Karma Eyeshadow Brush (it is in the palette). This product is always in high-demand.

*Rules & details for entering:

Now that we have the fun stuff (aka: the prizes) out of the way, it's time to get down to the rules for how you can enter & have a chance to win this giveaway.

MANDATORY (1 ENTRY):

1. You must be a public follower of this blog, via Google Friend Connect.
2. You must leave one comment on this post letting me know that you are a follower. Leave your first name, your GFC name, and a valid email address. This way, if you win, I can verify you do follow my blog and I have a way to contact you to let you know if you have won.

OPTIONAL (EXTRA ENTRIES):

You can get "extra entries" into this giveaway by doing any of the following:

1. Follow me on Twitter! If you do this, leave your Twitter name in your mandatory comment. (+1)

Everyone has a chance to have a maximum of 6 entries into this giveaway by doing all the optional entries. If you do any extra entries, please include what you have done in your mandatory comment on this post. There is no need to post multiple comments for each entry you submit. One is fine. :-)

I will check each and every comment and the entries submitted to make sure they are valid entries.

* If you have not done the mandatory entry, then your entire entry is null and void. 

* If you submitted a valid mandatory entry, and said you did an optional entry as well, but I find the optional entry is not valid--the optional entry will be null and void, but the valid mandatory entry will still be valid.

This is open internationally to those who have reached the age of majority according to their local laws. If you are under that age, make sure you have parental permission to enter this giveaway. If you win, I will contact you via email to obtain information where I can ship the prize package to. If I do not receive a response within 48 hours of contacting you, then I will select a different winner.

The winner will be selected randomly using random.org on August 14th 2011. That should give you plenty of time to enter this giveaway! ;-)

Good luck to all who participate!
