I believe we have one fabulous contest happening here, oh yes m’am we do.

March30

Welcome to the Week of the 100th Post here at MinSoFab!  On Thursday, I’ll write our 100th post… and so, we obviously need a contest to celebrate.  And, in true Starlite fashion, our contest prize has a theme.

Really, what did you expect from a girl who named her ministry programs Twinkle, Sparkle and Glow?

One of the best parts about running a ministry for girls is that sometimes people send me oh-so-special girly stuff to try.  After forcing you to listen to my stories of falling on my face in front of a few hundred middle school girls and asking you to vote on how I should wear my hair for my first date with That Boy, I figured the least I could do is share the wealth with you.  And so, our contest is going to be called “It’s Fabulous to be a Girl!”

Because, really, it is fabulous to be a girl… especially if you win this prize:

That’s right — in honor of my 100th post, I’m giving away 100 different items to one MinSoFab reader!

Here’s the rules: You can enter the contest by leaving a comment on this post; you don’t have to have a blog, but you must leave your email address in order for me to be able to contact you.  One entry per person.  To get a SECOND entry into the contest, post a link on your blog to this contest and email me at ministrysofab@yahoo.com to let me know the link is up.  Once I see it up, I’ll enter your name AGAIN in the contest.  Due to shipping costs, this contest is only open to readers with a mailing address in the U.S.  Sorry, but no current Starlite leaders or volunteers are eligible to win this prize.  Others prohibited from winning include my mother, my two puppies and my roommate, Katie. 

I’ll leave the comments open until 11:59 p.m. on Wednesday and the winner will be posted here early Thursday morning.  I’ll either be using the whole random number generator thing-y or me and roomie will put your names in a hat and draw one out.  We’re real scientific here at MinSoFab, in case you can’t already tell. 

Now, for the REAL info you want to know… here’s what’s in the prize package! 

46 Clinique products (some trial, some full-size — includes various lipsticks, Repairwear for Eyes, “Take the Day Off” Make-Up Remover, Colour Surge eye shadows, etc.); Victoria’s Secret Dream Angels “Heavenly” body wash; Martha Stewart Real Simple Teal Organizer; Dolce Vita brown purse with silver accents; Kerastase Lumiere Nutri-Sculpt; KI Memories Scrapbook Black Bookplates; KI Memories Scrapbook Black Flowers; Doodlebug Design Inc. Polka Dot Organdy Ribbon; Jolee’s Boutique White Freesia Scrapbook Flowers; Paper Magic Group Handmade Card w/ Limo Design; Paper Magic Group Handmade Gift Tags (seven total in prize package); Dome Chocolat pink “To Do Today” Notepad (two total in prize package); N.Y.C. Nail Enamel in Glitzy Glitter; C.O. Bigelow Mentha Lip Shine (six total in prize package); Caboodles’ heart bath confetti; The Body Shop Straight Nail Scissors; Crest Pro Health Mouthwash; Pink Gift Suitcase; Red Gift Suitcase; Victoria’s Secret Black and White Make-Up Bags (three total in prize package); Hallmark Cards Heartline Thank You Notes (two sets total in prize package); Special Moments Photo Albums (two total in prize package); Elizabeth’s Spa Moisture Socks; Ozark Trail Hooded Poncho; Landia Home Warm Honey candle; Lancome Colour Focus EyeColour in Filigree; bath poofies (six total in prize package); and Chesapeake Bay hand-poured vanilla candles (six total in prize package).  All items included in prize package are new.

WHEW!  Please note that the lounge chair is not included as that is my favorite thing in my bedroom.  Other than, you know, my hair products.

Now, enter away!  I’ve got to go have some alone time to come to grips with the fact that I just offered to give away 46 Clinique products from my very own stash. 

You might get my Clinique, but you’re never getting my hot rollers so BACK OFF, INTERLINGS.

    I love give-a-ways…especially free ones.
    So, here’s a little story for you–
    I found your blog through Natalie Witcher’s blog and I think your ministry is fabulous! Your posts make me laugh, and the pink polkadots make me smile. And best of all, you inspired me to buy my very first pair of wellies! I chose the purple argyle plaid style on the target page. I was so excited about them that I wore them to work on “casual Friday” even though it was a sunny day. : )
    So, thank you for being a source of “sunshine” and ministering to much more than just the girlies in your programs! And thanks for being so selfless as to give up your Clinique products–that’s a tough thing to do!
