GIVEAWAY! Besame Classic Color Lipstick in Merlot [CLOSED]

NOTE: This giveaway is open to both the US and Canada.

It's no secret that I've become a bit of a Besame stan over the past year, and now I want to share the joy with you. I capitalized on the Black Friday sales and bought a brand new tube of 1933 Merlot, a brick red shade in Besame's trademark formula that should flatter the majority of skintones. The open tube in this picture is mine; yours will be the brand new one nestled in the beautiful Besame box.

As always, there are some rules for this contest:

• You must be at least 18 years old and located in the US or Canada to enter.
• Canadian entrants must remember that I pay for my giveaways out of my own pocket and it is more expensive and intensive to ship to Canada. If you are a Canadian winner, you will likely have to be patient until I can find the time and money to ship out.
• You must be prepared to provide me with your full name and address if you win.
• You may only enter once. Using multiple accounts to enter is cheating and will result in immediate disqualification.
• Comment on this post to enter. Your blog post comment must describe your favorite vintage (pre-1980) film or book to qualify.
  
• Entries will be finalized on January 12th at 11:59pm EST. I will use Random.com to pick a winner.
• You do NOT have to be subscribed to this blog to enter, but I will announce the winner in a blog post, so it might help to bookmark BOGL for the next month if you've entered. If you do not respond to that blog post within 48 hours, I will draw a new winner.
• Please be aware that I have comment moderation turned on to avoid spam comments. Your comment may not appear right away. Do not submit multiple comments.

Best of luck, and thank you for supporting Bad Outfit, Great Lipstick!

A Giveaway for the Winter Break!

My brother and partner will be visiting us this month, so I'll be taking a brief hiatus from the blog to spend as much time as possible with them. I'll keep posting on my other social media (ReneesAnatomy on Instagram, Snapchat, and Twitter), and I'll be back to the blog in January when my men have returned to their respective jobs. In the meantime, I thought it'd be great to have another giveaway as a thank you for all of your continued support!

This time, I'm giving away some of my personal favorite products: the Shu Uemura Hard 9 Formula brow pencil in Seal Brown, Glossier's Coconut Balm Dot Calm, and a mini-tube of the original MAC Strobe Cream. Obviously, everything you'll receive is brand new; I just used my pencil for this photograph because I didn't want to take the new one out of  the packaging.

As always, there are some rules for this contest:

• You must be at least 18 years old and located in the US to enter.
• You must be prepared to provide me with your full name and address if you win.
• You may only enter once.
• Entries will be finalized on December 31st at 11:59pm EST. I will use Random.com to pick a winner.
• You do NOT have to be subscribed to this blog to enter, but I will announce the winner in a blog post, so it might help to bookmark BOGL for the next month if you've entered. If you do not respond to that blog post within a week, I will draw a new winner.

This will be the first time I try to use Rafflecopter, so please bear with me in case I make any mistakes. Beyond that, good luck, and I'll see you in 2017!

Glossier Three Prize Giveaway WINNERS!

The winners of the Glossier Three Prize Giveaway have been found, thanks to Excel and Random.org. Congrats, everyone! You have one week to email me at the address listed on the blog sidebar.

 Winner of the Haloscope in Quartz: Clementine

Winner of the Haloscope in Topaz: Kerry

Winner of the Balm dot Com trio: lvp8779

Unfortunately, there are a few sobering notes for this giveaway. First, I saw an unusually high amount of cheating, slash, not following the giveaway rules. It should go without saying, but: if you did not follow the rules or you tried to enter multiple times, you were immediately disqualified. Also, I hope you will all be patient with me as I try to ship out these prizes, since this is an especially busy time of the year for me.

Thank you again to everyone who participated and/or continues to read BOGL. I am truly blessed to have you here! Keep me posted on what you'd love to see as a giveaway prize, and I'll try to remember it for future giveaways.

[CLOSED] Three Prize Glossier GIVEAWAY!

This giveaway is open to both the US and Canada.

The winners from my last Glossier giveaway are still waiting for their prizes thanks to the restocking issues. So this time, I decided to learn from my mistakes and just buy the products ahead of time. I really wanted to give away Glossier's newest product, Haloscope...but one shade does not fit all. So I decided to buy both. Then I remembered that Haloscope contains a few oils that some readers cannot use on their skin, so I decided to get an additional prize: two tubes of the newer Balm Dot Com flavors.

So here's the giveaway prizes! You can enter to win one of three prizes:

1. Glossier Haloscope in Quartz

2. Glossier Haloscope in Topaz

3. Glossier Balm Dot Com in Cherry and Rose

Entering is, as always, super-simple: tell me about your go-to summer makeup look. Make sure your name is on the comment, because that's how I'll announce the winner. (I don't recommend just typing up your e-mail; you're asking for spam.) At the end of your comment, please add a line that says, "I'm entering for ______" so I know which of the three prizes you're trying to win. You must pick one of the three options.

Please be aware that there are some rules for this contest:

• You must be at least 18 years old and located in the US or Canada to enter.
• You must be prepared to provide me with your full name and address if you win.
• You may only enter once.
• Entries will be finalized on August 5th, 2016 at 11:59pm EST. I will use Random.com to pick a winner.
• You do NOT have to be subscribed to this blog to enter, but I will announce the winner in a blog post, so it might help to bookmark BOGL for the next two months if you've entered. If you do not respond to that blog post within a week, I will draw a new winner.

Also, I want to remind everyone that I pay for these giveaways out of my own pocket. That's not me trying to guilt you, that's just me saying that I have to have the money available to send the products out. Hence, it may take me a week or two to get the goodies sent to you after you win. This is especially true if you end up being a Canadian winner, because customs = not fun. But they will be sent! :)

Best of luck, and thank you for supporting Bad Outfit, Great Lipstick!

[CLOSED] GIVEAWAY! Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint

The Glossier Perfecting Skin Tint has become my go-to base for work. Easy to apply, incredibly sheer and natural, and undetectable on my skin, it helps me feel more like a human being without the fuss. I know a lot of people are dying to try this product out, so I thought I'd give a bottle away! The bottle in this photo is mine, but you'll obviously get a brand new bottle in the shade of your choice.

Entering is, as always, super-simple: comment on this blog post and tell me when you think you'd wear a product like this. Make sure your name is on the comment, because that's how I'll announce the winner. (I don't recommend just typing up your e-mail; you're asking for spam.)

Please be aware that there are some rules for this contest:

• You must be at least 18 years old and located in the US to enter.
• You must be prepared to provide me with your full name and address if you win.
• You may only enter once.
• Entries will be finalized on April 15th, 2016 at 11:59pm EST. I will use Random.com to pick a winner.
• You do NOT have to be subscribed to this blog to enter, but I will announce the winner in a blog post, so it might help to bookmark BOGL for the next month if you've entered. If you do not respond to that blog post within a week, I will draw a new winner.

Also, I want to remind everyone that I pay for these giveaways out of my own pocket. That's not me trying to guilt you, that's just me saying that I have to have the money available to send the products out. And because I have to wait until a winner is selected to order the appropriate shade, there's a chance the product will be out of stock for a bit. Hence, it may take me a few weeks to get the goodies sent to you after you win. But they will be sent! :)

Best of luck, and thank you for supporting Bad Outfit, Great Lipstick!
