Super Fantastic Stila Giveaway Part Deux
By Glinda
With a record-breaking 238 entries, it will soon be time to announce the winner of the first Stila prize package.
But first…
If you didn’t win, don’t fret, I’ve got more! Two more prize packages, to be exact. There will be a Grand Prize filled to the brim with Stila products, retailing for over $175. Also, a runner-up will be awarded another prize package with over $100 in yummy Stila goodness, all provided by the lovely folks at Stila Cosmetics.
The runner-up package includes: Vintage Shadow Pot, Eye Shadow Duo, High Shine Lip Color, Lip Glaze Stick, and a Smoky Eye Palette.
The Grand Prize consists of: Eye Shadow Trio, a gorgeous Mazatlan Eye Shadow Trio, Smoky Eye Palette, SPF 15 Illuminating Tinted Moisturizer, High Shine Lip Color, Glitter Eye Liner and a Lip Glaze.
And how do you win such fabulous stuff?
By penning a winning haiku, of course! The subject of the haiku must be somehow related to beauty/makeup. It can be funny, serious, outrageous, whatever kind of haiku you do best. You will be using the classic 5/7/5 format, with five syllables in the first line, seven in the second, and five again in the last line. An example has kindly been written for you by raincoaster:
Stila will be mine
Ain’t no two ways about it.
No three-ways neither.
Assisting me with the judging will be my esteemed colleague raincoaster, as well as El Jefe, The Manolo himself.
So, here are the official rules, blabbity blah…
1. One entry per person.
2. Haiku not adhering to the subject matter outlined above will be disqualified.
3. Contest open to residents of the US and Canada.
4. Contest ends at midnight (Pacifc) August 29, 2008.
And now, the moment you have all been waiting for, the winner of the first prize package from the first giveaway!
Danielle of Elle in Wonderland, you have just made 237 people extremely jealous!
And the rest of you, come up with your best haiku and leave it below in the comments! Good luck and good haiku-ing!
Also, while you are here, why not add Teeny Manolo to your RSS feed? I promise you won’t regret it!
