Canadian Beauty Bloggers Music Glam Prize!

A few weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to be involved in a Twitter Party hosted by the Canadian Beauty Bloggers. It was in conjunction with and sponsored by P&G brands Olay, Pantene, Covergirl, Crest, as well as Shoppers Drug Mart. It was encompassing the Grammy's Red Carpet, so we were all using the connection #MusicGlam.


I really love being in the CBB Network because it gives me a chance to share my love of everything beauty with a ton of great women and get to know them through social media outlets. If you aren't already a part of it, but you have a beauty blog, or anything dedicated to beauty, and you live in Canada, check out the CBB!

In any event, this past Twitter party held a phenomenal prize worth almost $300. There were 10 winners, and I was one of them!! I couldn't believe it. I still can't believe it. Even with all of the products in my beauty room, and having used a lot of them already, I can't believe I was fortunate enough to be chosen as a winner for this incredible prize.


The gift card will come in handy on more than one occasion. I don't feel like that part of the prize needs much explanation.


I haven't used the Pantene shampoo and conditioner yet because I just got it last week and I have been working on the Tresemme Beauty-Full system I received a few weeks ago. Full review coming soon on that. But I also only wash my hair twice a week and I forgot to bring it in the shower with me when I washed my hair last time. I'll go put it in there now to remind me to use it :). I've used the 'airspray'; alcohol free hairspray, and have been LOVING that, so why wouldn't I love the shampoo and conditioner that comes in the same line as it?


I actually used the entire line of the Olay skincare system last night for the first time, and I really enjoyed the facial cleansing brush the most (because I'm lazy). The regenerating cream cleanser has tiny microbeads that help with the exfoliating process in conjunction with the brush. The brush is reminiscent of the Clarisonic cleansing brush, which I can never afford, so I really appreciate the Olay version :). The Regenerist micro-sculpting cream is really thick, but also fragrance free and sinks into the skin fairly quickly. The packaging says there will be visible wrinkle results start in 1 day, but I didn't notice anything different this morning, but I also don't have (knock on wood) any wrinkles for the cream to dissipate, so I don't really know what I'm hoping for, but it's never too early to start preventative measures, right?


The Crest 3D Luxe Whitestrips showed results after only 1 use! I have extremely sensitive teeth, though, so I need to wait several days before I use them again. I have no doubt that my teeth will be several shades whiter by the time I'm done this box, but I fear how much pain my teeth will be in during the whitening process. *the price we pay for beauty, eh?*


I honestly haven't used ANY of the Covergirl products. I will. I promise. I have all 3 of the TruNaked eyeshadow palettes, but I've currently only used the Nudes version, (I actually used it to create the look I had from my previous post), not the Goldens that I received in this package, or the Roses that I purchased on my own, but I will! I haven't opened the mascara because I already currently have like 15 on the go and I'm waiting for those to dry out or get used up before I open any other new mascaras. I honestly have around 20 waiting to be opened already, so that one is just hanging out with all of my other new unopened mascaras. The lipstick is a gorgeous red colour, which I love, but I actually very rarely wear a red lip unless I'm going like out out. It's not the type of shade that I will wear to work because I don't want to have to reapply throughout the day in order to keep it vibrant. I don't usually have the chance to worry much about my lip products throughout the day. So I normally opt for a nude shade or a gloss that I can slap on without a mirror.


And that sums up the whole prize package!! I know this was a long one, but there were a lot of things in the package.

Once again, I'm SUPER grateful for the opportunity and the prize. A huge thank you goes out to the CBB and all the P&G brands that had a hand in this.

Thank you so much for reading!!

Bye Bye!
