Giveaway - Senna Cosmetics

Hold on to your seats ladies... I am giving away the BEST Lip Lacquer money can buy! Senna Cosmetics is a leader in the cosmetic industry for good reason. Not only has the founder and creative director Eugenia Weston been a make up artist to celebrities such as Bette Midler for years, she was even nominated for an Emmy award for her work with Bette on the TV movie Gypsy in 1993. Eugenia Weston has worked with the best fashion and beauty photographers of all time, such as Herb Ritts and Helmut Newton. Kevyn Aucoin even cited Ms. Weston as an inspiration in his best selling book, Making Faces.

Celebrity fans of Eugenia Weston's Senna Cosmetics include: Tori Spelling, Angelina Jolie, Jessica Simpson, Lesley Ann Warren, and Jennifer Anniston. Senna Cosmetics are also regularly featured in blockbuster films and popular television shows including Heroes, and Ugly Betty.

I am so grateful that Eugenia Weston has graced the world with her one of a kind cosmetics. They have made a difference in my life, both as a professional makeup artist and as a women who simply loves the natural, unique looks that Senna gives me. It is the only brand of cosmetic that I have used consistently for over 20 years, both professionally and personally.

Senna Cosmetics are not tested on animals, and for my gluten intolerant readers you will be thrilled to know that most items are gluten free (including the Lip Lacquers in this giveaway!)

Senna Cosmetics has pioneered such innovative products as:

- The Form-a-Brow eyebrow stenciling kit that can help any woman perfectly shape and fill in her eyebrows in seconds.


- Lip Lacquers that have the look of a super shiny lip gloss but STAY ON like a lipstick (Have mercy! Just wait until you see the gorgeous shades they come in!).


- Silky Primer - The ultimate skin corrector and under make up primer! It is weightless and
invisible yet it instantly refines the look of enlarged pores and skin imperfections. Uneven skin tone and redness are dramatically lessened and make up stays put all day. Be on the lookout... I will be giving a bottle of Silky Primer away in an upcoming Freebie Fairy giveaway!


- Mineral Mix "Cover & Finish" Foundation - the most natural looking, luminous mineral makeup on the market. Trust me on this one!


- Eye Colors - Senna has perfected the art of super refining their eye shadow powders. The result is intense pigment that can produce a broad range of color depth depending on how
much color you apply. There is zero streaking and colors go on velvety smooth. I will be giving away a Senna Eye Color Trio in an upcoming Freebie Fairy giveaway!


There are SO many other one of a kind Senna products that you really need to browse the Senna website to take it all in. On the Senna website you can purchase all of your favorite items and they will ship them directly to your home! You can also check the website and see if you live near a Senna make-up Studio or a salon that carries Senna Cosmetics. Shop NBC regularly features Senna Cosmetics as well.


Friends, I am a Senna Lip Lacquer groupie. No joke! It is the only lip color I wear. I love the high shine, sparkle, gorgeous shade selection, and long wear-ability (the pleasant vanilla flavor is also a plus!).


In honor of my beloved Senna Lip Lacquer I am proud to host a giveaway for:


Senna Lip Pics - a specially made collection of pocket size lip lacquers tucked into an adorable quilted bag that has a special place to display photos in it. Show off pictures of your favorite people every time you gloss your lips!

Giveaway - Automatic Ice Cream Maker from Cookware.com

As much as I try not to think about it, I can't deny the fact that the warm and wonderful days of summer are quickly fading. All winter long we wait for summer, and once it is here we try to grasp it's magic in every way possible. Barbeques, vacations, gardening, kids playing in sprinklers, outdoor dining with a good bottle of wine, and numerous other activities that define summer are savored in an attempt to preserve the summer season.

One tradition that my family observes every summer is making homemade ice cream. My mother made homemade ice cream for me during my childhood summers, and now I make it for my family. What better way to bask in the final days of sunshine than with a creamy, delicious bowl of homemade ice cream? Not only is the flavor and texture wonderful, it is made with only a few simple ingredients and no added preservatives. In the past making homemade ice cream was a real undertaking involving hours of cranking, and requiring loads of salt and ice. Luckily ice cream makers have come a long way since then, now automatic ice cream makers do all the work for you in no time!

After cooling down with your homemade ice cream during the day, it is so relaxing to wind down and watch the stars at night. My husband and I make it a point pour a nice glass of wine and enjoy the summer evenings outdoors. Recently we even purchased some lovely wine glasses to commemorate this summer ritual. No matter what you do, be sure to say farewell to summer in style!

Now, for the Giveaway! The kind people at Cookware.com have generously allowed me to giveaway a Deni 5205 Automatic Ice Cream Maker with a Candy Crusher to one of my lucky readers. Cookware.com is part of a large family of fantastic internet stores under the name of CSN Stores. In addition to Cookware.com some of my favorite CSN stores are: CSNLighting.com, TeakWickerandMore.com and AllChildrensFurniture.com.

Now you can prolong the remaining days of summer, whether it be by enjoying homemade cream by day or choosing a bottle of wine from your wine racks to share with your favorite person by night. I hope this fun giveaway will make your farewell to summer a little easier!
