Giveaway! - Kat Von D True Romance Palette in Ladybird, Charcoal Brown Sormeh, Clinique High Impact Mascara!!!


It's time for another giveaway!  I wasn't planning to start this until next Friday, but I am SO excited about the prizes that I just couldn't wait!

This giveaway is sponsored in part by Mosha Katani!  As you know, I love her Sormeh, and it goes perfectly with the Ladybird palette.  I'm so thrilled to have her support!



The Grand Prize is:
1 (one) - Kat Von D True Romance Palette in Ladybird
1 (one)- Charcoal Brown Sormeh
1 (one)- Clinique High Impact Mascara in Black
















AND a chance for one of your friends to win:
1 (one)- Kat Von D True Romance Palette in Ladybird








DISCLAIMER: Please note that each winner will receive ONE palette.  I included two photos of the palettes, so you could see what the outside looks like, and what the colors are.  EACH WINNER ONLY GETS ONE PALETTE!

Ok, so now that's out of the way... How do you enter?

Well, it's pretty darn EASY!

You get one entry by liking Sugarpot Beauty's Facebook page.

You get one entry by liking Mosha Queen of Kohl's Facebook page.

You get LOTS of entries by getting your friends to like Sugarpot Beauty's Facebook page!

Here is the best part; when a winner is drawn, if the winning entry is a "Be A Friend" entry, then the friend you have listed in that entry will win the second prize!  If not, then I'll draw another name to win the second prize.  So there you have it, you get an entry for referring a friend, and they get an entry for taking you up on it! 

Rafflecopter will only let you enter one friend's name per day, so if a bunch of your friends take you up on it at once, you may have to space out the entries.  Sorry for that inconvenience, but I didn't see a way to get around it.


GOOD LUCK!!!!

Review! Clinique High Impact Mascara


Clinique's website says this about their High Impact Mascara:

Kicks up the volume and length of each and every lash for a look that's lusher, plusher, bolder. Pure, deep colour only adds to the impact. Wear it once and you'll feel naked without it. Ophthalmologist Tested.

After trying out several of the Rimmel mascaras, I decided to try out some higher-end brands.  When my lashes were super-short (before Latisse), mascara was usually an afterthought.  I hardly ever wore it, and when I did wear it, I didn't expect much out of it.  Now that my lashes are so long, I want them to be emphasized... A lot.

So, rather than buying a bunch of full-sized mascaras, I took advantage of Sephora's mascara package, Lash Stash.  For $45, I got 10 mascaras, a lash primer, a set of falsies and some lash glue.  I think that's a pretty good deal!

Anyway, the first thing out of the box was Clinique's High Impact Mascara in 01 Black. 

The Good:
- This goes on smoothly, without clumping.  It does tend to stick my lashes together, but brushing the wand through the lashes a few times separates them out nicely.
- It wears all day, and doesn't flake unless I rubbed my eyes.
- It's a nice daytime mascara.  It gets a good coat on each lash, and adds definition and color, like you would expect.
- I like that it isn't waterproof.  I want to be able to gently clean my lashes at night, and tugging at waterproof mascara is not my idea of a gentle cleaning.

The Bad:
- Nothing!

The Neutral:
- It's not very dramatic.  This isn't a mascara I would choose to wear for a daring, nighttime look.  Since I've been infatuated with my lashes after using Latisse, I want them to look daring and crazy-long and crazy-full all the time, so I would prefer a mascara that makes my lashes look very dramatic.  Like I said earlier, this mascara gives a nicely defined day time look, and I don't think this should count as a "bad thing".

The Verdict:
If you are looking for a good, not-to-subtle-but-not-too-dramatic mascara, I would recommend this one.
