Norwex And A Giveaway!!!!!

Have you heard of Norwex? Am I the first to tell you about it? I hope so (giggle) =D. I happen to love Norwex products and have seen the rags in action many times. I own a few and can't wait to get more! They last forever and are SUPER effective at cleaning everything. The first time I was introduced to them I was super skeptical. I mean, really? A rag that can clean with just water and can disinfect itself within 24 hours? Sounds too good to be true right? RIGHT! Fast forward to NOW and I am convinced. What were the key factors in my conversion you ask? Well! 1. At my first party I took the challenge to wash all my makeup off with just water.....it WORKED!!! (I had even done a super smokey eye that day) and 2. (prepare yourself) Raw chicken was rubbed on the counter (gross) then swabbed so we could see the bacteria. Then it was cleaned with a Norwex rag (using only water) and swabbed again...CLEAN!!!! No bacteria, nothing!!! I love that I can give them to my son to wash toilets and not have to worry about chemicals. I can hang it to dry and in 24 hours it's ready to use again. I know, I know that sounds disGUSTing but I saw a cloth that had been used a ton swabbed and it was clean! Seeing is believing ladies. Click here to see and also watch the video below on how I wash my makeup off with the body rag.  

I buy mine from the lovely Kara who is always available to answer questions or help me out with my purchases. Not just because she is a consultant and amazing but she also happens to be a dear friend. I feel good handing you over to her to get your rags too =). Now here is my FAVORITE part!!!

Shabby Apple Giveaway, Win $50!!! {CLOSED}

For those of you that know me, you know that I love dressing up! I have always preferred wearing skirt and dresses to jeans. No outfit is complete without girly accessories....or a bow LOL! Feeling confidant in what you wear is super important. I rarely buy something that I don't love which cuts down on the buyer's remorse ; ). I am super loyal to certain stores for the styles they offer, the price I can get things for and for their customer service. With that being said have I told you lately how much I {heart} Shabby Apple? I have always been attracted to their vintage styles, their creative flare and the MODESTY of their clothing. That is something you can't find very easily so I am SO glad that Athelia Woolley decided to step on the scene and help us modest girls out! She began with a dream of being a part of the fashion world and bringing back classic vintage styles that compliment all body types. She never gave up and look at her now! I always get excited to see what they are coming up with next. For those of you that are lucky enough to live here in Utah they have even been known to have a HUGE sale where you can find tons of these pieces highly discounted (I'll keep you "in the know" on when). I wanted to share a few of my all time favs from their online store of wonderfulness!

Rootbeer Float from the Ferris Wheel Collection

Blue Eyes from the Twin Palms Collection 

Golden Afternoon form the Mad Hatter Collection 

Aren't they all dreamy??? Ready to hear the best part of this post ladies????

Not only that but ALL Classy readers for one month will receive 10% off their entire purchase! You must use the code classy10off.  How can life get better for the average fashionable diva ; )?

Giveaway Winner!!!

Kevin and I sat down (now that we are both healthy LOL) and went through all of the pictures sent in and Kevin was very vocal about which one he wanted to do. I was surprised at how quickly he chose it and how he kept going back to the same picture (giggle). So without further ado here is the winning picture:

Sent in by Stacey. Congrats! =D You are the winner of the Sigma F80 Foundation Brush!!!! There were some very beautiful pictures sent in that I loved and I am going to be doing some of them for SURE!!! I loved all the smokey eyes sent in and the character makeup as well. Some of the natural eyes were simply stunning! =) Thank you to all that sent in pictures and be looking for our 1000+ giveaway coming soon!!! Stacey can you send me your information where you would like your brush sent? Thanks again ladies!

Published...And A Giveaway!!!

Former stylist and Hollywood event producer Jet Moody (how much do you already love her based solely on her name?) contacted me wanting me to do a Q&A on makeup for her new site. I was ThRiLlEd and excited. Jet moved back to Utah not too long ago and was kind of sick about the fact that there really wasn't a site to inform ladies about all things fashion going on. Boutiques opening up, designer shows, up and coming artists and the like. Well thank heavens for HER right?!? ; D I was super excited about the idea of getting correct makeup concepts into the hands of readers. I mean isn't that what I do here on the blog? I'm by no means an expert. You're learning, I'm learning and well, that's just a happy place I think! I would love for you guys to go and check it out and tell me what you think!!! Will you??? Pretty please??? =D Here's the link: http://www.fashionutah.com/a-sit-down-with-classy-cosmetics/ 

ALSO!!!!!!!! I loved doing that cute tutorial with Kevin but ladies I am NOT about to tell him we have had not one SINGLE picture sent!!!!! I think his poor little feeling would be hurt. I am ALSO going to leave out the fact that I am now about to BRIBE you to send some in!!! You know that I absolutely aDORE my F80 foundation brush from Sigma. It buffs everything in so perfectly and holds a good amount so you actually use less.....once you experience your fist application (HA!).

So who will be the first to find an image that Kev needs to copy and send it to me? Send me a link, send me the actual pic to my email or pop the picture in the mail! =) This offer will go until I get at LEAST 5 pics to choose from. Help me out here ladies! I will keep you updated as to how many entries we get. I also never did my 1,000 subscribers giveaway and I have a HUGE makeup case to giveaway!!! Any of my readers in NY? I will be coming there the 9th-11th, yes NEXT WEEK!!! I'm so excited. My FIRST trip to the big apple!!!!! =D Okay, get to finding pictures. Send in as many as you want!

Get-Clean-Skin Biore Give Away!

Remember those funny looking nose strips from high school that would hurt like hell when you pulled it off? You can thank Biore for that. Before facials became a must-do skin care routine, Biore strips were a skin saver for me. Who knew many years later into my 30's, my skin would find refuge again in these nifty little strips. This mama doesn't get a chance to do a spa facial too often (but then again I'm not a big spa fan - you don't want to get me started! I seem to have bad luck with spas even in-home spa businesses...but I digress...), but these strips get rid of my blackheads like none other! Sure, it's not as relaxing and painless as a real facial but sometimes beauty equals pain right? Right... :) And can I tell you, I still get fascinated by the spiky texture that is left after pulling the disgusting blackheads off my nose.

Biore is now more than just nose strips. The brand has an entire line of skin care products targeting your specific skin care needs all in new packaging! The Blue products are for deep skin cleansing and my favourite of the bunch. The Orange products are for complexion clearing - the Warming Anti-Blackhead Cream Cleanser is ah-mazing! The Pink is for makeup removal - wipes are a makeup gal's best friend! 

If you want a squeaky clean complexion, then enter to win the entire line of some of my favourite dirt busting Biore products! Here's what you'll win: 

• Bioré® Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser with Skin Purifying Technology
• Blemish Fighting Ice Cleanser
• Blemish Fighting Astringent
• Warming Anti-Blackhead Cream Cleanser
• Pore Unclogging Scrub
• Steam Activated Cleanser
• 4-in-1 Revitalizing Cleanser
• Daily Purify Scrub
• Combo Pack Deep Cleansing Pore Strips
• Make-Up Removing Towelettes
• Total Value: $105!

It's easy-peasy to enter: 

• You must be a Canadian resident.
• 'Like' Biore's Facebook Page. 
• Leave a comment with your email address telling me what your skin type is like and what Biore product(s) will change your life!
• Winner will be chosen randomly and announced on April 16 at 12 pm. 

Thank you to Biore for sponsoring this amazing give away! Good luck!
