[CLOSED] Calling All Malibu Barbies! (300,000 Follower Makeup Giveaway Part 1 of 3)
—
I’m delighted to announce that the 2nd part of the 300,000 Follower giveaway includes not one, not two… but THREE themed sets of Lime Crime makeup products! Each themed set contains completely different products and will create different looks.
I’d also like to thank the amazing team (and shout out to Cassie) for the incredible generosity and actually letting me put together sets of items for the giveaway.
Without further ado, here’s the first themed set…

The Malibu Barbie kit!
So what if you don’t have platinum blonde locks, a wasp waste and a caramel-colored tan? You can still channel a little Barbie-style. The Malibu Barbie kit includes the following 3 items:
Reason Uniliner: I picked Reason because unlike most silver liners, it is actually made up of very fine little silver flecks so you have the option of both wearing it in a concentrated line or sheering it out like a sparkly cream/liquid shadow. (Tutorial here.) Perfect foil for bright pink lips when you want to go over the top!
Great Pink Planet (link to demo for lipstick and powder-pigment heart below): I’ve used and repurchased this baby-pink lipstick multiple times. It is like an ever-so-slightly warmer version of MAC’s Saint Germain (some people consider it an exact dupe, but while it looks very close once on the lips, Saint Germain is a touch more cool-toned). Goes on creamy and sets to more of a satin finish. Pale lipsticks can accentuate flakes and cracks though, so make sure your lips are well-conditioned.
Countessa Fluorescent (below): Highlighter pink. If you know what MAC’s Candy Yum Yum or Barry M Shocking Pink looks like, this is similarly bright but more of a straight neon pink instead of magenta. Absolutely, ridiculously fun, this is another of those traffic-stopping pinks that no self-respecting Barbie would be without! (Does leave a pink stain on the lips after wearing, due to the pigments used.)

![[CLOSED] 300,000 Follower Giveaway - Part 1 (Skincare)
(Update) Stay posted for the winner announcement and don’t forget a makeup giveaway coming up soon!
It’s Amazing!!! The Makeup Box will be 2 in February 2013, and seems like we’ll be hitting 300,000 followers at around the same time. Of course, I HAD to have something great planned as a thank you to everyone, and I’ve decided to work with a couple of sponsors for a dual giveaway (one skincare, one makeup).
Since I ALWAYS get questions on skincare, blemishes, etc, I felt it would make sense for me to look for not just any random product but a company that has helped with a lot of my own skincare woes and is one of my absolute favorites. MARIO BADESCU.
Mario Badescu products are a constant fixture in beauty magazines and the brand is loved by a whole passel of A-listers such as Charlize Theron, Liv Tyler, Natalie Portman, Rachel Bilson, Eva Longoria, Kate Moss, Gwyneth Paltrow, Queen Latifajh, Ashley Judd, (the list REALLY goes on and on)…
While it’s probably most famous for its acne-care products like the Drying Lotion (absolute can’t-live-without for me), MB also has a host of products customized for sensitive, combo, dry, and mature skins.
Because we have no idea of knowing exactly what skin type the winner of this contest will have, MB has offered to give away a whole LIST of MB’s best-sellers. (As floored as me? Uh, huh. I almost wish I could win it…)
The prize will include:
Drying Lotion - dries out nasty spots fast (link above)
Enzyme Cleansing Gel - non-drying cleanser that removes dead cells gently
Hyaluronic Eye Cream - locks in moisture for the delicate eye area without heavy oils
Almond and Honey Face Scrub - exfoliates and conditions without being too harsh
Whitening Mask - fades dark spots from old acne/scars, and evens overall skintone
Hydro Moisturizer w/ Vitamin C - lightweight antioxidant facial moisturizer
