Two Ways to Win MAC Dare To Wear Eyeshadow in Crazy Cool

by 256 Comments

Question for you ladies: do you ever feel a little crazy? How ’bout cool?

If you ever feel a bit of both — and happen to like purple eyeshadows — today’s giveaway promises to rock ya boat. 🙂

The Prize

One lucky lady will win MAC’s Dare to Wear Eyeshadow in Crazy Cool ($14 value), a highly pigmented pale frosty lavender.

How To Enter…

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

  1. First, you can enter by retweeting (RT) the following message:

    Follow @karenmbb and RT to win MAC Eyeshadow in Crazy Cool from the Dare to Wear collection http://bit.ly/bD5Y0n

  2. Second, enter by leaving a comment at the bottom of this post, a comment about anything at all — describe your plans for the weekend, tell me the name of the last lipgloss you wore, or dish about the cutest boy (or girl) at work.

    What’s the last lipgloss I wore? A MAC all-time fave, and I wore it today — Nymphette Lipglass. I’ve worn it often over the years. I swear, if MAC ever discontinues it I’d FREAK OUT!

  • Oh, yeah. International folks and readers living overseas, please feel free to enter. The giveaway is also open to y’all. Entrants everywhere, however, must be at least 13 years of age or older.

  1. Nymphette really is a magical color, isn’t it? I have one in my purse, and one in my stash. LOVE it! Today was a peachy kind of day, wardrobe wise, so I wore Silly Girl lipglass.

  25. I last wore “Candy Apple” from WnW megaslick’s line, but I might have to go out and pounce on that Nymphette! That is a great range of gold, peachy tones.

  27. Today I wore MAC dazzleglass creme in My Favorite Pink, which I just picked up at a Cosmetics Company Store last month. I like it, but I do find the glitter to be a little gritty!

  37. Adore sparkly lavender shadows-the only one I have is UD ‘Grifter’ but it’s so versatile and gives a really unique edge to eye looks. I’d like to try lavender lips as well, but have never found a lipstick pigmented enough to cover my very red lips all the way. 🙁

  42. What’s the last lipgloss I wore? An Essence lipgloss I bought on monday from Ulta. Super sparkly, grape scented, and purple tinted goodness. not bad for $2. 😀

    Reply

  44. I find that this color reminds me of my own eyecolor, just more purple and light. Not quite sure why though- I’ve seen colors that are a better match (not that I’m looking for an eyeshadow that matches my eyes completely), but for some reason that was my first thought when I looked at the picture. Strange.

    Reply

  45. I love this e/s! My favorite e/s colors are purples.
    And I was so well-behaved and didn´t buy it, because it´s so similiar to “beautiful iris”, which I already own.
    But if I would win it, I´d be so happy 🙂

  46. Ooo! I sampled UD Love Junkie in love junkie at Sephora yesterday! I LOVE that gloss, and I haven’t seen the XXX gloss in that particular color in almost 5 years!!! I’m totally snagging it for my birthday next month! 😉

  160. this weekend i’m hittin’ the beach and hopefully going to the mall to pick up the new collection from MAC. I ordered a few things online, but i’m an impatient sort of person so i’m going to drive on over anyways. I’m also almost hitting pan on Haux, which is one of my favorite shades by MAC so i’ll pick a replacement there too 😀

    Reply

  163. I don’t have any plans for this weekend, which makes me think I should make some. So far the only thing on my schedule is grocery shopping, which can actually be fun if I go when I’m hungry. Then I buy lots of goodies. Not good for my waistline though.

    Reply

  170. I just had to share, because I thought it was adorable but then I am biased …… My mum came to visit today and my 3 year old son took her hand and led her into my bedroom where he then exclaimed “Isn’t it delightful nanny?” – he was refering to the vast amount of wet washing hanging on racks and cupboard doors that I had hidden in my room so my flat/apartment would look tidy!! Bless kids!

    Reply

  181. I’m about to head out and get my hair trimmed 🙂 Since I just dyed it turquoise and midnight blue, I figure it’s time to get it trimmed as well.

    Reply

  182. My plans for the weekend is some retail therapy! I don’t know if any makeup will be involved but clothes will be for sure!

    Reply

  184. The last lipgloss I wore was earlier today… it’s one I just bought, MAC Gimme That. On me it looks like the lipglass version of Show Orchid and I already know I’ll be getting another for backup! I actually swatched the Crazy Cool shadow in the MAC store today because it’s a colour I wear a lot of in clothing, but got one of the Fabulous Felines quads instead (limited $ plus I wasn’t sure if I had any similar colours) . Love purple eyeshadows.

    My weekend….. actually my weekend is Thursday/Friday as I work weekends until I can find a job with “normal” hours, which is about as much fun as it sounds. Oh, well. I’m grateful to have a job at all given this economy.

    Thank you for the giveaway Karen, and I hope you’re having a great day!

  190. I recently got an Estee Lauder lipstick as an extra in a swap I can’t wait to wear. It’s called Autumn and it is certainly perfect for fall! I don’t usually wear a gloss.

  205. I am so excited for this weekend! I am a high school student and we started yesterday ( a Thursday, weird, I know) and tomorrow is the biggest football game of the year against our biggest rival. We even have to have the game at a university’s field because there are too many fans to fit at the high school, and they want to break the record for people attending a high school football game. Let’s hope my high school wins!
