WOOT, homies! I can practically *taste* the weekend on my tongue. I’m out here counting down the minutes to Saturday! My plan is to spend part of the day straight-up playing with makeup — what I call good old fashioned “me” time. 🙂

I’m thinking about doing a colorful eye and just wearing it around the house while I play. Maybe something blue, green or pink (!)? Do you ever do that? — get dolled up even though you aren’t going out?

If you do, the prizes in today’s giveaway should make for great home-based (or otherwise) beauty fun.

The prize

Seven lucky ladies will each win a prize package ($65 value each) with the following drama-inducing goodies from COVERGIRL’s Blast Collection of bold makeup for lids, lashes and lips:

  • Smoky ShadowBlast DIY Kit ($48): COVERGIRL’s double-sided Smoky ShadowBlast sticks are great for bold, colorful smokey eyes, and this kit comes with all six of them, along with a drugstore coupon and a bunch of wicked smokey eye tips ( here’s a cool video that shows ShadowBlast in action)
  • LashBlast Fusion Mascara ($9): When it comes to thickness and length, Fusion, the newest member of Team LashBlast, delivers (even with a single layer)
  • ShineBlast Gloss ($8): This light-reflecting gloss packs plenty of shimmer and mirror-like shine

How to enter…

2ways2enterEntering is easy. There are two different ways, and you can do both of them for two chances to win.

First, you can enter by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post, a comment about anything at all! Dish about the freaky dream you had the other night, what your plans are for the weekend, the annoying thing your SO does with his/her toes, what your pet looks like, or wax philosophic about your favorite pair of shoes.

I share a condominium with my husband and a tabby cat named Tabs. Both of them have low-hanging bellies, but only Tabs treats me like a low-level assistant. 🙂

  • Sorry, international babes. COVERGIRL wants to limit this giveaway to US readers only, but I’ve got something else lined up that includes you gals next week.

He isn’t one to play with random things or be too playful so it was soo funny to see something like that… it was so out of character for him. Good luck everyone!! <3

  35. I’m really depressed because I’m fixing to have to leave my cat for a few weeks 🙁
    She’s my baby, literally, her name is Baby lol. And I hate being away from her. I’d probably take a bullet for this cat. But, sadly, she is too independent to care whether or not mommy has to take a trip away.

  54. I just went back to work this week, I’m a cosmetologist, and I’m exhausted. Winning this would be great and I haven’t bought my mom a Mother’s Day gift yet and she’s been on the search for a purple eyeliner – so I thought a beauty gift would be great for her.

  56. My mommy doesn’t want anything for Mother’s Day so now I’m stumped as to what I should do! We both have giant papers due soon (hers for a PhD/proposal) and mine is my BA thesis…so I may push it back to next weekend and celebrate with her then!

  58. Karen I have to tell you – since I bought my condo I’ve been really good about not binging on makeup so much. I have bought house stuff etc. Then a couple weeks ago I tore it up at Nordstrom and Sephora…it was a blast. I am going to hit up Ulta soon though…I really want some of the Essie nail polishes.

  73. I have been using RapidLash for the past two months, and am seriously IN LOVE with it. I haven’t been wearing any mascara at all, but it’s actually pretty funny that you should be doing this contest. I gotta hit up my local Wal-Mart this weekend to get Cover Girl’s Lash Out! I haven’t used it in so long, and now they have so many darn variations of it! :p

  76. Speaking of freaky dreams, two nights ago I had a dream that all my gums were bleeding like a faucet, and that my teeth were crumbling away by the minute. when i tried to show people like my mom, they just said that my teeth were fine and that they didn’t seen anything wrong with them. but then i would touch my fingers to my gums to show them the blood, and no one could see it but me! ::shivers:: i dont know if anyone will understand what i just explained, but it was real creepy all the same. it felt so painfully real.

    i woke up, jumped out of bed, and brushed my teeth like a mofo /=[

  96. Would you believe I have never tried CoverGirl lash blast? Everyone raves about it so much. So far my HG mascara has to be Clinique High Impact. OMG it is amazing. I just bought the Clinique curling mascara, thinking it would be the same effect but just with my curl, but it is not the same 🙁 :(. I’m so disappointed….I’m going to have to go back and get the High Impact. It’s not waterproof but honestly doesn’t budge until I want it to ;). The curling one will NOT come off! So annoying! I haven’t worn mascara in four days because I’m still waiting on bits and pieces to come off. Ok that was a looong ramble about mascara, lol.

  106. Very nice giveaway. Thanks for the opportunity to win this assortment of goodies.

    I’m leaving for a long vacation on Tuesday and, as usual, have left most of the preparation until the last minute, so this weekend is scheduled to be one long packing frenzy. Worth it, but a frenzy nonetheless.

  108. Yeah those freaky dreams… I’ve been having what I like to call “Movie Trailer” dreams and typically the “movies” are cheesy horror flicks. They start off with a random girl (My point of view in these dreams is almost always the camera) doing something rather boring like sitting in on a lecture. It then switches to the girl flirting with a cute guy (the teacher who’s giving the lecture in this case). Then you’ll start to see where the crazy not-normal stuff comes into play. The lighting flickers, shadows creeping, floor warping – You know, typical cheesy scary movie fare. After that all hell breaks loose. Shadow arms reaching up through the tiles, hot teacher turns into the embodiment of a shadowy demon lord… Cut to black, cue screams and/or creepy childish laughter. Movie Trailer dreams. Love ’em. Once my dream actually panned out over a theater of avid movie goers watching the trailer, crazy freaky indeed!

    In other non-creepy less-weird news, I plan on staying in this weekend. I’m nursing a cold the Hubs decided to share with me. At least it gives me plenty of time to wash my makeup brushes and not do laundry, right?

  109. A comment about anything? Where do I even start? I suppose I will tell you about my cats. Zippy and Moose are both female kitty mutts. Zippy is a short haired, territorial, bossy, male-lovin cat who loves being combed ONLY by my dad and has an extremely short tail. She often has male callers who come by the house but she only pays attention to the black cat who lives down the street. We call him Tom.
    Moose is a long haired, cuddly, possessive, tortoise shell cat with a duo coloured face with a line that goes straight down the centre of her face. She loves lying on her back, digging her nails into my legs and always gives me the cold shoulder when I go away for the weekend.

    Methinks Tabs, Zippy and Moose would enjoy a play date.

  132. Let’s talk about freaky dreams….

    Ever since September 11, I’ve had dreams where I woke up in bed and all of the curtains were removed from the windows. Men dressed in black and wearing ski masks surrounded my windows, carrying machine guns and aiming them at me. (I don’t know how they were able to do that on my second floor windows)

    Those dreams always involved me trying to find one place in the house immune to gun fire. I always wake up in a cold sweat after those dreams! 🙁

  237. I have been loving the spring weather. Planted a huge herb garden (11 different kinds total) about 3 weeks ago before th friendly neighorbhood rabbit ate it. Then I have spent the last week replanting the herb garden plus tomatoes, peppers, and flowers. Which of course the rabbit is slowly attacking. Now, I’m working on keeping the rabbit out. Name something – I’ve tried it. Chicken wire, granulated fox urine, homemade tonics with tobacco tea, listerine and ivory soap. After all this work, guess what I saw pop out from under the gate as I was pulling in the driveway: that furry little brown rabbit scurrying around the corner of the house. Someone I work with said I’m going to become like the Caddyshack character – plotting to rid the yard of the critter – just without the dynamite. Now I’m thinking I should stage a feeding area with carrots and lettuce away from my fencing – like by the neighbor’s yard who doesn’t clean his dog’s poop from other people’s yard. Anyway, just doing a little websurfing before spreading more granules around the newly replaced plants.

    Hope you have a great weekend!!

    Anyways, did you know: i check your site for updates about 4X a day (along with temptalia.com and musingsofamuse.com)

    What camera do you use for these fantastic photos you take?

    Love the CG Last Blast Fusion — it’s going to Vegas for sure.

  275. I’m looking forward to the end of this next week: it’s the end of the semester on the 14th! Although I’m not in school, my hubster is and I happen to work at the University. I’m REALLY looking forward to the end of the semester when there won’t be as many students around and I’ll get to have a bit more time (hopefully) with my hubby!

  321. I want! I should be on a no buy, but i broke down and bought a Rock & Republic blush today in Call Me. Can’t stop thinking about it. I’m feeling a regret and excitement at the same time. I seriously can’t buy anything else until MAC In The Groove in July.

  337. I talked to my mom today to wish her a happy Mother’s Day from 10,000 miles away…and it made me crazy homesick. Which is an undesired side effect considering I still have 50 days left in the sandbox… So I’m reading beauty blogs and eating cheesecake and hoping it all goes away. 🙂

  356. what a sweet giveaway! ive been wanting to try these smokey pencil things for MONTHS now & this gives you all of them. ive been wanting to try that mascara ever since i saw the commercial as well because when i do mascara i dont do natural, & if i really wanted to ill id have to do is pick up a $1 mascara. ones that actually thicken&lengthen are much harder to find….

It made it’s way into my cart and I wore it for the first time today, I’ve gotten at least 4 comments on how good I smell. Yay for celebrity fragrances with a $20 price tag!!!

  377. I spent yesterday with my momma, and ate a bunch of food! …seriously a lot of food! I made french toast with marscapone cheese, strawberries marinated in sugar, and home made syrup. It was a hit! My mom and grandma loved it! I think I’m going to start making it every year!

  379. Inspired by your review about Rimmel’s Max Volume Flash I applied some to my right eye. I wanted to compare it to Lash Blast so I have the Covergirl mascara on my left. It wouldnt be too bad except for the fact that Rimmel is in Black and Lash Blast is in Brown. As I went to run errands today I felt like I was wearing to different colored socks!
