Simple, right? I know!

Giveaway Numero Cinco

Mememaker.net

Horses and Bayonets totally loves the General!

With that being said, Dos Equis should give me a lifetime supply of this ballistic, bayonet-supporting beverage. Just so you know, a bayonet could technically be thrown or launched into what one would call a ballistic missile...


Anyway...
As long as you la la la la la la la love Q-tips, read on my darlings!

Q-tips Precision Tips, $3.29
Get them here from Walgreens.

The first person to comment below this blog post or tweet to @makeupthebay with #qtips gets a pack of Precision Tips as well as a purse pack of Q-tips. 

Q-tips Purse Pack around $.99
Mostly found in-store @ major retailers

Precision Tips are awesome for manicures because they're more precise & less cottony at the tip. The purse packs are awesome for traveling, purses in general and especially on-location makeup artists.



If I said your smokey makeup look could look better by way of Q-tips, would you hold it against me?
(I think not.)

Giveaway Numero Cuatro

And I was like...

Baby, baby, baby, oooh! NOOOO, you didn't!

The Makeup Guard Card, $8.95
Get it here.

It's fairly easy to mess up a cat eye winged eyeliner look. It's also really hard when working with dark eye shadows to ensure that you don't end up looking like a raccoon by the end of the application.

Today's giveaway is for The Makeup Guard Card! YES!

The first person to comment right below this post or tweet to @makeupthebay with #makeupguardcard gets it.

Hit me up, baby... just one time!

Giveaway Numero Tres

If this nail art was your boyfriend, he'd never let you go!

Amika teamed up with Dashing Diva to make this awesomeness you're soon to call your fingernails! This pattern is Amika's Obliphica design.This is a hot print I got at the Premiere Beauty Show that are fairly hard to find. You can purchase them here through Amika, but you have to buy the entire kit for $39.95... but it's quite fabulous for $39.95, might I add.


Any who, comment below or tweet me with #amika to enter the giveaway for this awesome nail art.

Amika Ceramic Styler, $135
Get it here.

If you like blingy and colorful hairdryers, straighteners, or etc you go get you some Amika. For real. I've got dibs on the giraffe print. They also have a popular Cynthia Rowley that's really hot right now.






Pieces of Amika art all over my bathroom,

I mean, even Taylor Swift loves them. Read about it here. Heck, we even used them to light up Battle of the Strands at the Premiere Orlando Beauty Show! (We totally rocked it, by the way. Also, stay tuned about the Battle of the Strands Finals in Vegas. Either we're the favorite of the 1st runners up or you can help vote us to go. Did I mention I love my readers lately?!)

Prices start at $3.99 for these babies.

Giveaway Numero Uno!

Giveaway Numero Uno on Britney Spears & Justin Week is Extrashade!

We can't say enough good things about this product. Not only is it capable of shielding SPF 30 rays, this company also supports cancer awareness & support initiatives.



We were lucky enough to speak to the owner & score some Extrashade swag that even Justin Bieber would be proud of.

What's nice about Extrashade is that it works for all ethnicities, but keeps the multicultural shades in mind with all it's non-ashy & good for hyperpigmention qualities in tow. 

WE JUST WANT SOME SUNSCREEN TO LOVE... OOOH!

Signed,

The Sensitive Skin Complected

Comment below or tweet to @makeupthebay for your chance to win a bottle. We love the comments! Keep them coming!

The general public knows that the sun's toxic...

Avoid the hyperpigmentation on your face. You'll spend months to years correcting it...
Trust me.

Luv,
~J.~

Thee Premiere Beauty Show Giveaway

In honor of the Premiere Beauty Show Orlando wrapping up,
I feel extremely generous.
Giveaway Time!

Did I mention our team placed in the Battle of the Strands Orlando qualifier?! The Fabulous Hair Team is sooo excited that we're still in contention for Vegas. All of the first runners up from all the cities are now competing in an online vote to be announced.

Personally, we'd like to go gangbusters on the Internets, just stated George Bush.

Help us get there, baby! Keep your eye out & we'll let you know when you can vote for us to get the final seat.




Anyway, if you don't vote for us, we are soo going to sick Michelle Obama's Arms on you. The butt whooping you'll receive by her left and right army combined bench press will indeed be covered up by her now lengthy, yet still inanimate bangs.

Let's not forget that Lady Obama also rolls with cabinets full of men who are protected by her binders full of men.





We've also got some cavalry kickin' in the form of horses and bayonets, but her husband would like to point out that the state of the military has in fact changed in nature.

We have these things called aircraft carriers...

... and ships that go underwater and stuff...

Forgive my camera insolence which my cell phone can't apologize for, since it's also inanimate.

Even though these are quite possibly the worst resolution pics known to man, included in the giveaway is:



1- Bottle of SPF30 ExtraShade, dries clear &
     moisturizes all at once. Great for darker skin
     tones, which are also susceptible to melanoma.
1- Life's A Beach Sign, to remind you of Florida &
    The Premiere Beauty Show 2013
1- Collapsible Kid's Water Bottle, with a hook you
    can attach anywhere (great for theme parks)
3- Elemis Samples including Shower Cream, Lime
    & Ginger Body Lotion as well as
    Visible Brilliance (great for traveling)
2- Samples of Just Being Sexy Body Bronzer / Self Tanner
1- St. Ive's deluxe sample Fresh Skin Apricot Scrub

Want to enter? Simply comment below to this post on my blog & we will announce the winner tomorrow at 12:00 noon PST. By the way, the contest ends at noon, also...

Enjoy, my lovelies!
