Girl with the Pearl Confession – Win this 2/14

beauty heads toward the light

Psst – here’s a secret: If you’ve paid any attention at all (and it’s okay if you haven’t because I’m about to get you updated) you know that *pearl* is the accent right now for skin.  It’s a trend I love because the looks go opposite of what so many try to do in winter and brightens skin instead of  going the way of artificial tan.  While real pearls have been cherished as a miracle beauty ingredient in Asia for years, let’s go a little oyster-friendly and offer these alternate ways to winterize your skin for 2011:

Hampton Sun Serious Shimmer Cooling Spray

You won’t need to be on a beach to appreciate this shimmer.  Filled with a fresh, herbal perfume base of fine, pearlized microglitter, this spray really serves as two products in one.  The refreshing scent is a great pick-me-up, and the shimmer coverage is perfect to highlight any body part.   One caveat – pearl may show up too light or grey on some complexions.  If so, Hampton Sun Serious Shimmer also offers a traditional bronzer option for the glow to show on your skin. 

***WIN THIS***

Would you like to get aboard the pearl whirl?  Leave a comment after this post on why/how you want or would use this cooling spray and you could be selected for a bottle of your own.  Don’t delay – drawing will be held Valentine’s Day, February 14th.

  16. I would like to win the Pearl from Solessence Shimmer Cooling Spray simply because it’s made by Hampton Sun, a brand that I love and trust. I am a “perfume ho” of sorts, so I love anything that smells good, especially if “I” can smell it all day long.
