my first giveaway: Avon's New Super Extend Mascara!

I have dabbled in Avon this past year and it’s been fun for me. I’m simple and thrifty...and Avon’s products are great, cheap, and not over the top. (Perfect for a very low-key makeup kinda gal like myself.) You can read my post about the beginnings of my first taste of entrepreneurship here. Well, you can thank the Avon fairies for setting up my first giveaway on this baby blog of mine. When I received my Avon package in the mail this campaign with the items my customers purchased, I had an extra Avon Super Extend Mascara. I thought, do I keep it? Do I give it away? Does my mom need mascara? And then those two words “give” and “away” came together, a light bulb went off in this mind of mine…and I thought…giveaway. Perfect! For a sweet blog reader. (You’re pretty special if you won over my mom! Hey, she’s a reader…she still has a chance to win.) A free item…what a great way to say “thank you” to someone who stops by and visits theblessedlife.

This is a new mascara product from Avon and they have been running a special on it for trading in your old mascara. This new mascara….which I may add that I purchased for myself and love…will be valued at $8.50 once the promo price expires in the current campaign. (ps…my wand thingamajig is not yellow…it’s black…I was a little sad on that one. Just wanted to give you a heads up.)

The item? One new Avon Super Extend Waterproof Mascara (in black)

Value? $8.50
