hi beauties!

not one to waste any time, i'm giving away hard candy's newest item for spring/summer '08 - the peace palette. this bright pink compact is the size of a glasses case - so it can easily fit in your purse - but it contains something way better than glasses! there are four shimmering shadows (including a lavender - the "in" spring shadow shade), 4 glosses, a shimmery bronzer, and a shimmery highlight.

to enter send an email to makeuplovesmecontests [at] gmail [dot] com. in your email, tell me what's your favorite thing about makeup loves me (it can be a specific feature, a type of coverage, or anything else!), that way i'll know what to bring you more of! and be sure to enter by sunday (3/30/08), beauties!

the catch? whoever wins must submit some feedback for other mlm readers! after you receive you palette and have a chance to test it out, send me an email with your likes and dislikes so that other makeup lovers will benefit from your experience.

ps - even if you aren't the winner, this fun little set is incredibly reasonably priced at just $22! click here to check out this steal!
