Fables in Fashion’s First Giveaway! – Closed!

Welcome to Fables in Fashion’s First ever Giveaway! 🙂 It was about one year ago that I decided to give Fables a real go by posting more frequently and becoming more involved with the beauty community in general, and admittedly it has been a very rewarding experience 🙂

For my first giveaway I wanted to kick off an “Essentials” series, giving away everyday products I personally recommend~ A good mix of high and low end products!

This give away is 100% sponsored by myself, I purchased everything with my own money (everything is brand new, untouched!) and am hoping to do more “Essential” giveaway in the future, maybe essential products from a particular brands, and maybe have each giveaway focus on different social media platforms, one for twitter, facebook, youtube etc.

Anyways! On to the products, the winner will get the following:

  • MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack
  • MAC 222 Mini Eyeliner Brush
  • Covergirl Lash Blast Fusion in Very Black
  • NYX Nude on Nude Palette
  • NYX Mosaic Powder – Highlighter
  • NYX Powder Blush – Natural
  • NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base
  • Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick in Pink Please
  • 1000 Hours individual false lashes
    • Competition is open internationally!
    • The winner will be announced on the 1st of May, 2011 by 5pm Australian Eastern Time
    • I will contact the winner once I have made the announcement on my blog, and they are required to respond with their postage address within 48 hours. Failure to do so will result in the picking of a new winner!
    • I will not be held responsible if the package is lost in the mail, once it leaves my hands it is no longer my responsibility.
    • You must remain a follower for the entirety of the competition to qualify.
    • One (1) winner will be selected at random, in the event the original winner does not meet eligibility requirements, the prize will be forfeited and another winner will be drawn at random.

    • On top of this, my good friend Sefie wanted to throw in a few skin care samples of the Artistry skin care line for all of you to try 🙂 They are not part of my personal essentials kit, but Sefie has reviewed the products a little while back. So hopefully you will enjoy them too!

    How to enter

    1. You must be a follower on my Google Friends Connect widget to the right. I only recently added this feature to the blog to give me a better idea on who reads my blog (because I know there are a ton of lurkers).

    2. Leave me a comment providing both your name and email address on this entry, recommending me one product that is part of your “essentials” kit. I love learning about new products and really want to know what product you are loving!

    Don’t worry if you don’t see your email address appear in the actual comments, so long as you’ve filled out the email address field I will receive it and only I will see it!

    That’s it! The winner will be chosen at random. The competition ends on the 29th of April, 2011 at 5pm Australian Eastern Time, at which point I’ll disable comments on this post so you’ll know.

    Some rules / notes to keep in mind:

    Sounds easy enough? I wanted to thank you guys for all the support over the past year <3 I truly appreciate it and depending how this goes, I’m hoping to do many more in the future 🙂 Thanks again guys, and good luck!

  1. Awesome giveaway, Celina!

    My product recommendation would probably be TheBalm’s Mary Lou-Manizer! It lasts forever, and it’s a great highlighter – so versatile!

  2. Yay on your first giveaway HT! Your blog is amazing so I wish you and Fables every success 😀

    One of my essential items would be Nars Albatross because I love glowy and Illuminated skin!

  3. Ohh..wow what a giveway and with such a different theme.
    My essential Item would be Dermalogica Skin Hydrating Booster …can’t live without this stuff.
    In makeup, my essential item would be NARS Bali eyeshadow…excellent for filling in the eyebrows.

  4. Very nice and generous giveaway you are doing.

    One of my beauty essentials currently now is the Bobbie Brown Shimmer Brick in Rose. After setting my make up I add this highlighter on my face. I love how this highlighter gives me a nice glow for the final touch.

  5. What a great giveaway! I love Nyx more than life itself.

    My essential is very boring and a bit weird. I LOVE Amolin for dry, cracked lips. You can find it dirt cheap in the baby aisle, because it’s NAPPY RASH CREAM. Don’t be disturbed. One tube will last your whole life and it’s great for ultra dry elbows and knees too.

  7. Great giveaway, so generous of you!
    My essential item would have to be plain old vaseline! I put it on my lips every night and it keeps my lips smooth. It’ s been around forever but it sure does the trick.

  8. Congratulations on your first giveaway, such awesome prizes too!

    Let’s see, my beauty essential: super cheap Daiso Q10 “Hand Creame” XD I use my hands so much between work and crafting so I’ve been trying to take better care of them. So far the hand cream that makes them feel the nicest is the cheap old $2.80 Daiso stuff in the orange tube 😀

  9. Nice giveaway Celina!

    My essential item would be Guerlain Les Meteorites Powder 01 Mythic. It gives my skin a luminous effect and the illusion of having flawless skin. Nice!

  10. Love reading everyone’s essentials!

    This won’t be too shocking but – Jurlique Herbal Recovery Gel and Rosewater Mist! Makes my skin very happy and smells DIVINE.

  11. love giveaways!

    one of my essentials is cetephil intensive moisturizer. my thirsty dry skin loves it, esp we’re approaching cold dry winter.

  12. i enjoy reading everyone’s essentials. just the thing is i don’t have one 🙁 i mean, yes i do need face cream, make up foundation, mascara. but i don’t have my favorite ones, or the same product i will buy over and over again when i finish the package. i don’t know if it is because i am not picky and everything is ok for me, or is it because i haven’t tried that many beauty products

  13. I’m a follower via GFC.

    My essential item would be Bobbi Brown’s Creamy Concealer Kit. Lifesaver for dark under eye circles!

  14. Fantastic giveaway, enter me please! I’m a new follower via GFC. I can’t live without my YSL Touche Eclat.

  15. Ah I’m so glad you added the widget so now I can finally stalk this blog automatically |D

    Cannot live without MAC Lip Conditioner SPF15. Really saved my lips and now I haven’t gone back!

  16. Hi. My name is Genevieve Dos Santos.

    email: genevieve1126@gmail.com

    I highly recommend Makeup Forever HD foundation. It makes you skin look absolutely flawless!

  17. I love Marcelle’s foundation and always use it. I’ve been dying to try some MAC- my sister uses tons of it!

    odebt at yahoo dot com

  18. Ohh how awesome, I’d love to be entered. The one thing that is a must and is in my “essentials” kit is Vaseline Lip Therapy…keeps my lips hydrated!

  19. Ooh, awesome giveaway. I love mascaras and at the moment I’m loving Maybelline’s Lash Stiletto…it gives your lashes some great length.

  21. Covergirl’s lashblast is my essential product. I’ve been using it for yonks and yonks definitely one of my favourite mascaras!

    Awesome giveaway btw!

    I really love my Avada Spot Acne treatment! 🙂

  25. I can’t live without my nivea rescue lotion, helps my dry cheeks and gives my face a glow.

  27. When I have make-up on, I will always use my Maybelline The Magnum Volum’ Express Waterproof Mascara together with a pair of false eyelashes.<3

    Awesome giveaway (I'm dying for all the stuff you listed ;_;) and may the best girl win!

  28. Hi Celina, thanks for running this awesome giveaway!

    My beauty essential would have to be the NARS velvet matte lip pencil in Dragon Girl: it’s a beautiful red. I think it brightens up my face (possibly because wearing it makes me feel so happy) and it makes me feel confident and happy enough to go without anything else, as long as I have this color.

    Thanks again. =)

  29. GFC: Jer

    My new favourite product is the FITME concealer~ It has great coverage ^^

    thanks for the giveaway~

  30. Just found your blog through Illamasqua. You do some amazing work! My essential product is Erase Paste by Benefit – covers those dark circles under the eyes beautifully. My beauty essential is Illamsqua’s Gleam Cream. It is a pearly/iridescent cream that totally brightens up my complexion that I often wear it by itself on the weekend.

    Can’t wait to see who the lucky winner is!

  31. Hi! I’m a new follower. Your looks are so interesting O_O Don’t have the time to look at them yet but I already saw the latest one. Awesome!

    One thing I use almost every time is my YSL Matt Touch primer as it keeps my face oil free for a longer time ^_^ Having combination skin and living in a country where it’s hot and humid, this is a treasure!

  32. gfc:hungrypumpkin
    enter me please :’D
    my current everyday msut have is my canmake waterproof concealer the foe foot is perfet for dabbing just the right amoung of product, the lightest shade is perfect and it is super pigmented!! not only that it contains spf and the pa++ so i’m hoping this will help keep my spot fro mgetting darker hee

  33. ^_^

    Bourjois blush is apart of my ‘essentials’! I use ‘Ambre D’or’ for a nice glow or ‘Rose Ambre’ in cooler weather. 🙂

  34. Hooray! I absolutely love your blog and I love this giveaway <3
    I don't know how I can choose just one product.
    But the one thing that I absolutely cant live without in my makeup bag that goes in my purse is Wet & Wild volume mascara! Less than $2 a tube (perfect price for a purse makeup bag item) and gives my lashes mega volume when they need a boost during the day! I absolutely love this mascara!

  35. I think one of the cheapest things that I love to maintain is to polish my nails. I great way to accesorize, to get a pop of color, and you can easily adjust it to your mood or whatever your are wearing. You can give off different vibes-sexy, sweet, playfyl….
    LOVE NAIL POLISH!!!!!!!!!!:)

  36. My essential item is absolutely Fyrinnae’s Velvet Gel Silica Primer.

  37. I love burt’s bees lip balm.
    Following!

  38. What an amazing giveaway!
    My essential product would be a good primer. At the moment I’m loving Napoleon Perdis Auto Pilot Primer. It’s amazing and essential to a good face of makeup.

  39. Hello dear,great giveaway you have~!

    anyway,i would love to join!

    I’m your GFC follower : Mia

    My essential product would be Skin Food Aloe BB Cream #02.That also my holy grail.I do wear it everyday and it have great scent and looks natural too~!

  40. My Missha matte BB cream. :3

  41. Im a Google Connect Follower. One of the best products that I’ve used for my face is Almay Clear Complexion Concealer.

  42. Hi celina,

    You pushed me out of the ‘follower/creeper ether’ with this giveaway.

    Awesome blog… thanks for introducing me to the creativity and expression of cosplay 🙂

    I guess right now my essential is Kiss My Face Upper Management Styling Gel to reign in my unruly hair… though I’m hoping these products will become my own essentials. 🙂
    Thanks for the giveaway!

  43. Nothing like a fantastic giveaway to smoke us lurkers out of the woodworks 🙂

    My essential product is the Bobbi Brown Skin foundation. It’s lightweight and as I’m not very diligent with applying sunscreen, the SPF15 offers some protection.

  44. I follow but I live in the United States so I am not sure if I qualify.

    One of my esentials is Q-tips of all things. They help me clean up any messes I make with my makeup (especially with my eyes) and help me shape the lines better if I need to.

  45. Awesome Giveaway

    My GFC name is: Chique and Glam

    One of my essential is my MAC Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation
    That’s the best powder foundation I had so far and it’s a MUST have in my collection

  46. Following through GFC. 🙂

    The most obvious one for me is sleep – a good night’s sleep works wonders for the skin and overall well being. Otherwise, I’ve been enjoying the combination of Lush’s light pink colour supplement and their ‘Gorgeous’ moisturizer. Oh so wonderful on the skin and it gives a lovely soft glow~

  48. Am I last…? lol
    I am following on GFC. My essential product has to be sunscreen! At the moment I’m using Biore Bright face.. milk? I can’t remember exactly what it’s called, but it’s the pink bottle. But I’m going to try Sunkiller next, because the alcohol content in the Biore one is pretty high, and I’m not really liking that.
