Two Ways to Win a Beautiful Bottle of Balenciaga Paris Perfume

April 7th, 2010 by Karen 371 Comments

Good morning, glory. 🙂 I hope you’re ready for hump day, but just in case you aren’t, maybe the light and fresh star of today’s giveaway can help.

Have you been looking for a new scent for the season? If the answer’s “Hell, yes, woman!” then…

The prize

One lucky lady will win a 1.7-oz bottle of Balenciaga Paris Eau de Parfum (a $95 value).

Long-time Creative Director Nicolas Ghesquiere of the Balenciaga fashion house says a wide range of everyday scents, among them wax and flowers, inspired Balenciaga Paris.

Perfumer Oliver Polge, winner of the coveted 2009 International Fragrance Prize and the nose behind Burberry The Beat, Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb and Clinique Happy Heart, infused the fragrance with violet, pepper and mossy wood, dressing it in a beautiful glass bottle with simply elegant, smooth curves.

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. In it, tell me your favorite thing about spring.

Finally! The longer days! I love that El Hub still has some sunlight left when he gets home from work in the evenings. And then there’s all of the blooming flowers, of course (thank goodness for allergy medicine!).

Follow me
Second, enter by following me on Twitter and retweeting (RT) the following message:

    What do I love about spring? I love that spring starts with Easter which is the only time of the year that Hershey’s makes Reese’s Peanut Butter Eggs. Yummy chocolate and peanut butter! And now that Easter is gone, the eggs will bevon sale and I can stock up!

    I love the smell in the air and the colors at Spring time – the flower buds on the trees and the tulips on the streets. The floral smells remind you of you favorite perfumes and body splashes. The array of colors remind you of your favorite floral top and pink flats. Spring is just a great time for you to put away the black drab of winter and pull out the cute yellows and pinks of spring =) It’s like a new awakening!

But, on the other hand it isn’t as cold any more, so I’d have to say the weather.. Bring on the sunshine!

    My favorite thing about spring is the brief but incredibly meaningful emergence of Cadbury candy-coated chocolate mini eggs.

    I think that I shall never see
    a candy as awesome as Cadbury.
    Although it comes just once a year,
    my jeans have stretch, which I’ll need, I fear.
    The crackly shell, the chocolate’s divine…
    Won’t share with the family, these eggs is MINE!

    I never use to it much thought really – living in the Bay Area where it’s foggy almost year round but the sudden sneeze out breaks due to allergies let’s me know that Spring is just around the corner but this time it’s different. I’m happier and feel lighter. I think it’s my daughter’s influence. I want to take advantage that we have sunlight longer maybe I’ll finally start taking walks around our neighborhood with her and we can watch the sun go down together as a family….for this possiblitly I feel blessed and thankful for Spring and every season that will follow.

    I also like the Spring colors – don’t get me wrong!!

    My favorite part of spring is the life! Minnesota winters are hard, and we had our first March without snow in over 100 years! The grass is getting green, trees are budding, flowers are growing, and the days get so long. I love it!

    My favorite thing about spring has to be stripping away all the winter layers. I used to live in Winnipeg, Manitoba (one of the coldest cities in the North America) and I always had to wear layers upon layers to stay warm on the walk to work.
    When spring finally starts peeking through the snow I love packing away my sweaters and heavy coats and toques for another year… then slipping into a pair of flats, rolling up my sleeves and walking in the sun. <3

    Flowering trees are my favorite part of spring; my family’s house is on Magnolia Avenue in Chicago and every Easter our huge magnolia tree blooms from top to bottom with huge, milky-pink flowers. If the summer’s nice enough it blooms twice, but nothing as spectacular as that first big flowering before the leaves have come in. It’s sad when the magnolia tree’s finished, but not too sad, because that’s when the lilacs start blooming; they aren’t as gorgeous, but you can smell them all the way down the block and combined with spring’s fresh air it’s the most beautiful scent in the world. <3

    Spring is the season of the year I love the most because it makes me feel “alive” again. It brings changes, color and happiness. I love to see restaurants putting tables outside, people using different clothes, and the ability to walk outside looking at flowers, trees and to breath some fresh, warm air! I also like the fact that I can use my fun clothes and create some interesting make up looks. Of course, it is the time I feel more motivated to try some new fragrance that matches my new mood 🙂

    Spring represents rebirth, new life. The soil warms, it’s time to put seed in the ground……once again reaffirming that life goes on. The sunshine turns brilliant, beautiful flowers bloom, and the warmth envelops us.

    I may be met with surprise when I say this, but my favorite thing about spring is the spring storms. I love thunderstorms. This may sound strange since we (including myself) are all so eager to get far away from winter. I love the smell of storms. I love the calm before the storm. I just love storms. Maybe it’s because I’m from Kansas.

    Is the Spring coming?
    I can’t wait for the inspiring lights of London on a warm May night, for leaving this place for the first time, for kisses that hold on too long on your mind, for the tears we’ll spill as our innocence leaves this town forever. I’m ready to wave my hand outside of the window as sun swims by, my fingertips dancing on the zesty wind. I’m ready for love and peace, for longer days and longer evenings. I’m ready to lay in the bright green grass, and watch clouds do their own production. I’m ready for happiness, for long, stress-free days of smiling, singing, and eating melons. For Reading the biography of Dalai Lama & books devoted to ‘women in make – up’. To tap my feet to the Beatles and Blondie while writing poetry on make up-stained stationary. It is time for spring.

    With love,

During spring season everything comes to life. It’s like a big solar spotlight is on everything shining its happy warming rays all over the place. It’s a time of great inspiration and renewal. Everybody is ready to get up and out. The gardeners love getting their yards looking great and the neighborhood gets a facelift. Spring is a great time for looking good and smelling good. The smell of flowers in the air and all the bright colors really bring me to life.

When I was little, we were standed by a hurricane in South Carolina and have both been totally in love ever since. Any time either of us is in the midst of one, we always let the other know. Of course, they give way to beautiful summer weather which my new puppy will enjoy, but my dad and I can not wait for the Spring storms every year!

    My favourite thing about spring is seeing flowers blooming everywhere, just sets me in a good mood. And also, seeing lots of summer fruits popping up in the stores, mangoes, berries, just make me want to make/est desserts!

    My favorite think about spring is seeing the bright colors of flowers and the smell of it when I walk around my neighborhood. I have a cherry blossom tree in front of my house and it smells great in the spring time. I also love the weather.

    Spring is all about rebirth,it’s every year’s renaissance.It’s the time when flowers bloom spreading their scent,when birds sing to us about a new love,when windows are wide open saying “hello” to the sun.It’s the time when anything is possible, it’s time to try something new,it’s time to explore our soul,it’s time to explore the world.Spring is the little child in us,spring is the season when we can take our first steps and not get hurt,because spring has endless energy and shines full of hope..spring is magical because we see life where there was death…

About Makeup and Beauty Blog

Welcome to Makeup and Beauty Blog
Hi there! I’m Karen, your friendly neighborhood beauty addict, and I’m a Bay Area girl who hoards brown eyeshadow and covets coral lipstick. Every morning, I wake up and say, “I’m going to do something other than a smoky eye today.” Then…I end up doing a smoky eye anyway (most days). When I’m not putting on makeup, taking pictures of makeup or writing about makeup, which I’ve been doing daily since 2007 (!), you’ll find me hanging out with my hubby (“El Hub”), my four-year-old daughter (Connor Claire) and my torbie girl cat (Pretty Girl Rosie, a.k.a. PGR).
