I hinted at a contest a few videos back and when I was on Blog TV the other week and have thought of a good idea for a contest, finally. So here it is:
It's called "10 out of 10". Yeah, it's a weird title but I guess it needed one! It's a contest based on the idea that less is more and I'd like you to design and show me a look using only
10 products!
Here are the Rules, Contest Description and Frequently Asked Questions which I will update if I receive any sensible questions that I haven't thought of:
Rules:
- You must only use 10 products in your finished look, not as easy as you might think - generally one of my looks uses about 15 products! I counted and was amazed by that statistic.
- A palette is not one product - each thing that you use from the palette (e.g eye shadows etc) are single items and count as one of your 10 products. A pair of false lashes is one product. Use your best judgement!
- Submit a video entry via my YouTube Channel to the following video which is just a more animated version of this Blog entry!
- You must have subscribed to my YouTube Channel for your chance to win
- You may submit more than one entry but it has to be a new entry and not an old video from your channel, don't make me check!
- Closing Date: September 20th 2009 - 19:00 UK time (check the world clock to see what your time is when it's 19:00 UK time)
- You don't have to submit a live or tutorial style video, photos videos will be fine.
- Make sure that you show the final look and products that you have used to create your look.
- There is an element of trust that you will only use 10 products, after all we can't check but other contestants and I may detect something and call you on it!
- Your 10 products do not have to include your brushes/cleanser/toner/moisturiser, just your make up.
- Yes this is a GLOBAL contest, it does not matter where you hail from, if you receive post I will send you your prize should you win!

ReplyDeleteDoes an eyelash curler count as a product or as a tool?
ReplyDeleteI hope I can do this, good luck everyone, thanks Jazzy Jasmine xx
ReplyDeleteCarissa, eye lash curler is definitely a tool and not a make up product.
ReplyDeleteoh my goodness, i'm so excited by this contest! I am going to start planning straght away :)
ReplyDeleteprobably a really silly question, but is a concealer palette one or more than one products? i.e. the graftobian palette (i mix 2 of the colours together)
ReplyDeletethank you!!
killer_curves - I am being strict :) Every item used from a palette is separate product! Your two concealers mixed together is two products!
ReplyDeleteno problem jasmine! and also, is benefit a cruelty-free brand?
ReplyDelete@killer curves - 'fraid Benefit isn't cruelty free - Boi ing went in the naughty box!
