Apothica.com $50 Gift Card Giveaway!

Hello ladies!  I am super-thrilled to bring you this awesome giveaway, by my blog sponsor, Apothica.com!  See that pretty little box to the right of my blog with the pretty "Too Faced" makeup picture?  That's my awesome sponsor who has been on my blog for several months now.

Apothica.com is an online beauty boutique, which carries the finest selection of skin care, body care, aromatherapy, and cosmetic products--- including the most natural, organic products available.

They carry several of my favorite brands, including Too Faced, Smashbox, Deborah Lippmann (the "happy birthday" glitter nailpolish is on my wish list!), Yves Saint Laurent (their Touche Eclat! is my holy grail under-eye concealer/highlighter!) and my BELOVED Bobbi Brown (the brand that makes my "I would die if they ever discontinued it" peony blush that I wear nearly 365 days a year!)

So, when Apothica asked me to host a giveaway for a gift card to their site, of course I jumped on the chance to have one of you lucky ladies win a little beauty spree (and, if you need advice on which products to pick, I'm happy to help!)

Before I get to the giveaway, I want to share a little love for Too Faced.  I have purchased several Too Faced products before---but their eye shadow palettes are really taking the cake in their product line!  They are beautiful and the colors are so perfect for creating any look---from smokey eyes, to the sultry winged-out liner look, to a pop of color on the lower lash line.  I am just loving these kits! They carry a Natural Eye Kit, Romantic Eye Kit and a Soft & Sexy Eye Kit.  I recently got to experience a taste of all three kits with a promo kit I got that features a few colors from each kit:


How pretty are those colors!?  They are pigmented and have just the right amount of shimmer.  For daytime, I love to use the color "Like a Virgin" on my lower lash line.  It's kind of a brownish/gray color and it gives soft definition---a lovely alternative to liner (you ladies know I've been lining my lower lashes with eye shadow for a long time now, so it's fun to try new shades).

Alright, now to the giveaway!  Here are the rules. PLEASE READ THESE CAREFULLY:

You have 3 ways to enter (and there are 3 bonuses too!  so potentially you can enter 6 times!!!)---each way gives you ONE entry---but please tell me all of the ways you've entered in ONE comment.

This way, I will know to count your entry as 1, 2 or 3 entries based on what you tell me in your comment!  (for example, if you did the Facebook, Twitter AND blog option, please tell me that in ONE comment and I will count it as 3 entries---and don't forget to leave your email address with your comment!)


Here are your entry options!

Option 1: Facebook
1. Visit Apothica.com
2. Write on Apothica’s Facebook wall about what you think of Apothica
Bonus: Opt in to Apothica’s Newsletter

Option 2: Twitter

PLEASE LEAVE ME AN EMAIL ADDRESS IN YOUR COMMENT SO I CAN CONTACT YOU IF YOU WIN. ENTRIES WITHOUT AN EMAIL ADDRESS WILL BE DISQUALIFIED.

More Details...
1) Apothica will contact the winner to verify information is correct
2) After verification, Apothica will email the a code for the gift card to be used at SkinCareRx.com, Apothica.com, and SkinBotanica.com
3) The contest is open internationally, but Apothica does not ship to all countries

xoxo,

Veronika.

I am so excited about this giveaway! Thank you for doing this! I love Apothica!

Two Faced is my favorite make up brand ever! Shadow Insurance is the best eye shadow primer you will ever try. I've had the same tube of it for over 2 years and it's still not gone. I use it almost every day! My eye shadow stays on really well!

I have been admiring the Apothica logo for ages on your blog but never clicked on it until today...and I feel like I'm going to have a new obsession. I find it really hard to find brands such as La Roche-Posay here in the States (originally from Toronto) and so it's nice to be able to order them online! Also, I love your blog it's a fun entertaining read :)

I liked Apothica on Facebook and tweeted them along with you as well!

And for some reason my blogger isn’t letting me post but I do follow you publically as SoniaS!
