125 Fantastic Years and Going

Hey there!

Although the start of my year was rather shaky (school stuff and personal matters), it was immediately replaced by a very big smile on my face (I mean, a really BIG smile on my face). I won in Avon's 11-1-11 contest! How cool is that! Actually, I never expected that I'd win (there were thousands of other girls who tried their luck), so imagine my joy when I learned about it. My friend Pol (also my competition buddy LOL) was the first one who informed me about it, because I do not regularly check updates in Facebook. As it turns out, Pol also won in said contest :)

Anyhow, here is an image of the contest of Avon in celebration of their 125 years of making women feel worth it:

The contest's mechanics were pretty simple; just share to Avon what is your New Year's Resolution is. Then viola! You've got a golden ticket in your hand. You also have to include what lipstick color would you want to win (this part saddened me a little though).

Here are the pics from my lovely prize:

THE Prize

L-R: Lava Love, Knock-out Pink and Barely There

Mocha Goddess

As of the moment, I have yet to use the eyeshadow ( I am still beginning to love eye make-up). But for the lipstick, IT WAS LOVE AT FIRST TRY! The funny thing is, the color I indicated for my entry was not included in the prize (I picked Island Glow), and the same thing goes for Pol (Coral Fantasy). I was a little disappointed because I was really expecting to have Island Glow. Especially since I read at Project Vanity that Island Glow is comparable to NYX's Fig. But, over-all, the experience of owning these products is beyond words (I always wear Avon UMR).

Thank you Avon for hosting such a wonderful contest! 

I pray for more Avon goodies :D

'til next post!

Ciao,


Maddie
