30 Days, 30 Ways I Did This Contest!

30 days, all in order!

I've spent the past month creating different looks, one each day, and submitting them for Orglamix's 30 days, 30 Ways Contest". This blog post was going to start out with "Vote for ME"...

But I couldn't do that. I tend to think of the big picture. I haven't cast my vote yet for anyone, but I have a good idea who I'll be rooting for. It will not be myself. That's not only unfair, but I don't think it's right to do. So there's another contestant who I really enjoyed seeing create eye looks- and that girl will receive my vote!

There were so many beautiful, unique and very creative eye looks created by many of us girls- and to think we stuck it out for a whole 30 days! I can't, in good conscience, say "just pick ME because I deserve it"... I think all us gals do. However, there's only one Grand Prize winner.

In an effort to be fair to all the contestants, I ask you to please vote by clicking here.

Be it for me, or any of the other 15 girls... Take a minute, look at the pictures, and cast a vote for one of us! Of course, I want to win. I'd love to! I won't lie.... I want it so bad I can taste it! Well, not literally of course. I imagine eating minerals would be quite chalky.

But... The other girls want to win as well!

While you're at it... Don't forget to enter the Happy New Year Moi Minerals Giveaway for your chance to win a goodie basket jam-packed with $50-$100 worth of mineral makeup! Kick off your New Year with some awesome, highly pigmented, long lasting mineral makeup! Check out the blog post link for all the details on how to get as many entries into the contest as possible!

Treasured- Again!

Wow, this is incredible!

I'm firmly convinced that the new pictures I've taken are helping in the fact that I've been having my items included in some absolutely gorgeous treasuries! This time, purple is featured. It's one of my favorite colors to wear on my blue eyes since it makes them pop!! I favor purple in a lot of my wardrobe choices as well- so many different colors, so many different ways!

It really perked me up today finding out I was included in this Treasury- the snow is falling, outside our little "Guido Tree" (as my Dad has dubbed him! Besides, we're Italians that make fun of ourselves!) is bespeckled with snow on it's little limbs and it's little LED multicolor lights glowing nicely. To top it off, we're watching Phantom of the Opera!

A Christmas Treasury

It's a rough morning... But they need to be faced sometimes.

I woke up pretty sore, lo and behold... There's a dusting of snow on the ground! Immediately... I know why I'm feeling the way I do. Whenever the barometric pressure changes, I feel it. Sometimes it's good, most times it's not. When I wake up to find I've been included in a beautiful Christmas Treasury, it makes me feel a little better. Ok, ok, a lot better!

So take a peek and peruse some of the other beautiful items that are included!
