500th Follower Giveaway!

Last week, I reached a big blog milestone - my 500th follower! To celebrate, I'm doing a little giveaway. The lucky winner will receive a tube of MAC Russian Red matte lipstick (my signature color!) and MAC Redd lip pencil, the matching liner. All you have to do to enter is leave a comment on this post by midnight EST on Monday, January 18th.

Just a disclaimer: MAC is not a sponsor, and this giveaway is a gift from me to thank you for reading! Check back later this week for a FABULOUS sponsored giveaway.

Update: Amanda, thank you for reminding me about Google Reader subscribers! I had not forgotten you guys - after all, your ranks reached over 1,000 this week. Yet another reason to celebrate! I wish I could give you ALL a lipstick!

Update #2 (Goodness, I'm forgetful today!): All are welcome to enter, regardless of location! As long as you can get mail, you're in.
