$100 Beauty Products Giveaway & Breast Cancer Awareness - CLOSED

As many of you know October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and we thought we would do our part in creating awareness with a pink-themed giveaway!
2 lucky winners will each receive the following 'pink' beauty products (total approx. retail value of $100!):

• Vera Wang 'Princess' eau de toilette spray (1 fl oz bottle)
• O.P.I. Nail Lacquer in Breast Cancer Awareness shade 'Pink of Hearts 2010'
• MOR Cosmetics soap trio gift set (Belladonna, Snow Gardenia & Lychee Flower scented soaps)
• Neutrogena MoistureShine gloss (in either Wine Wellness or Healthy Blush)

You can enter to win the following ways:

• 'Like' our Facebook page
• Follow us on Twitter
• Follow our Blog via Google Friend Connect
• Follow our Blog via Bloglovin'

You can enter up to 4 times using the following methods above, but we do need you to leave a comment for each of those entries.  For instance, if you already follow us on Twitter and Facebook and want to enter, leave 2 comments on this post letting us know that you do so.  Each comment will serve as proof of entry into our contest. 

Contest closes at 11:59pm (PST) on October 21, 2010. Contest open to international entries. 

We will select our 2 winners (at random) on  Friday, October 22, 2010. 

As if this post weren't long enough, we wanted to share a few links for information regarding breast cancer awareness.  Men and women alike should take a bit of time to visit the following sites: NBCAM, Susan G. Komen for the Cure (where we donated!), and Army of Women (where we have registered as well to be involved in breast cancer research).  You can link to their Facebook and Twitter pages from their sites as well, especially if you wish to make breast cancer awareness a yearlong effort. 
 
The products included in this giveaway are not sponsoring Frou Frou Fashionista in any way.  We simply selected these products to share with our readers.
Once we select our 2 winners at random we will verify that they did in fact follow us on Facebook, Twitter, Bloglovin' and/or Google Friend Connect.   

Breast Cancer Awareness & Lingerie

As a follow-up to our last post, we thought we'd show a few lingerie pieces that also contribute to Breast Cancer Awareness.

Attached are images of the Honeydew Intimates 'Breast Cancer Awareness Rumba'. We found this item on the Honeydew site, but noticed that there's no mention of whether proceeds benefit any particular charity...
Also, we posted the Cosabella Hope Low-Rider Thong. This thong was specially designed to raise funds for charity...Cosabella will donate 10% of proceeds to a breast cancer charity, and they will continue to offer the item year-round because they believe fundraising should be a yearlong commitment.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

It's time to 'think pink' for Breast Cancer Awareness month!
This is a reminder to do your monthly breast self-examination (if you're over age 20) since we know that early detection is critical to successful treatment.
For more information, we suggest that you check out the Susan G. Komen for the Cure website (click here). Also, their site has the Promise Shop where you can buy some fun goodies in which 50-80% of the price of all items sold funds research and community outreach programs. These programs ultimately save lives and will hopefully end breast cancer forever. Of course, you can also send in a donation! There are numerous organizations devoted to battling breast cancer (just Google search it), and also plenty of tips for reducing your risk. Some suggestions are: Cut down on alcohol, eat fruit, get out and walk, avoid HRT, lose weight (if you suffer from obesity) and get screened! Those are just a few pointers, but really the ultimate goal is to crush this disease altogether with research and discovering a cure.
In spirit of thinking pink, we've posted some pretty pink lingerie items for you!
