That Cheap Eyeshadow

You know that favorite lipgloss, nail polish or even that hair product that you've used for years? The ONE that looked best on you and then suddenly, one day you discover it's gone??? 

Oh my gosh! It's happened to me so many times. I think companies have a vendetta against my buying habits. How could that be? I'm a LOYAL customer!!! 


I've even had a certain perfume discontinued that was my signature fragrance! Then POOF, out of the blue...no longer available!


Well, it happened again! This time it was my favorite eyeshadow. I have bought this palette for years at my local Walgreens. Yes, WALGREENS! My favorite place to browse for hours. (That's another blog)





You can tell which shade is my favorite here. I've gotten every ounce of that third color. I've even broken the lid and lost the applicator. That third color is the one I use right under my eyebrow. It's the perfect color to brighten my eyes. 


Ok, let's be real here.... It actually makes my eyelids look less droopy and that my 40 something friends, is a good thing!


I've tried to replace this color with several other expensive brands but nothing ever worked.


I HAD TO FIND that cheap palette from Walgreens, darn it!


Thank goodness I could still barely read the back label enough to get the brand and the color code.





Finally, I used my noggin and googled it! 
I'll be darned! There it was! A website where I could order as many I as I wished! HA!

And so, I order multiples and guess what? I order an extra for one lucky person! Yep, someone else is going to enjoy a brand spankin' new Prestige Eyeshadow Palette called " FCE-01 Earthling".


To enter yourself, just comment what you too have NOT been able to replace because of it being discontinued. Oh the frustrations!!! I know they are endless!!! :)


The winner will be chosen and announced Thursday evening - 2/20/14.
