Don’t want to enter, but still have a comment? Just say “No Thanks” in the comment.

What’s the comment topic today?

Share one of your favorite things!

I’m borrowing this idea from Lisa over at Lisa Writes. (thanks!)

One of my favorite things? Dr. Pepper Lip Smacker lip gloss. No matter what shade of lipstick I wear, I always follow up with a little “Dr. Pepper” and it provides just the slightest shine. Since it’s tinted, I can wear it alone for just a touch of natural color. All that for around $1.50. Can’t beat it!

I’ll close comments Sunday evening, April 27th and use a random number generator to pick a winner!

Notes:
Only the comments on THIS post will be eligible to win.
If your comment “signature” doesn’t link to any contact info please include your email in the comment or check back to see if you won!
