Thank you to everyone who entered our contest to win Dr. Perricone’s “No Foundation Foundation” and congratulations to Wooster!

Here’s what she had to say:

“I would like to try this because I have acne ridden skin with large pores-most foundations simply peel off my skin after a few hours, sometimes little bits of foundation flake off on to my clothes or the flakes simply sit on my face until I brush them off. I haven’t been able to find a makeup that works and does not have the flaking issue.”

We hope you enjoy your prize!

Beauty Chat has another great giveaway for our readers! We recently teamed up with Perricone MD, and one lucky winner will get the chance to try the “No Foundation Foundation,” formulated by Dr. Perricone.

This multi-purpose product provides natural translucent coverage, corrects skin undertones, instantly smoothes fine lines, and boosts skin’s natural moisture throughout the day. It also provides antioxidant benefits all day! Dr Perricone created the “No Foundation Foundation” in order to help keep the skin looking dewy and flawless, without the heavy matte finish that sometimes emphasizes the tiniest imperfections.

So how do you enter? Just leave a comment telling us why you need or want “No Foundation Foundation” and we’ll choose a winner on April 21st. And be sure to check out a review on another great product from Perricone MD in the next few weeks!

Contest is open to US and Canada residents.

Good morning everyone! Thank you for being such patient, avid readers. Due to our busy schedule here at Beauty Chat, we have not been able to pump out as many articles as we’d like. But that’s all going to change shortly, as we have some great ideas up our sleeves.

In addition to providing Beauty Chat for y’all, our company is also home to several other websites, including iEnhance.com, PlasticSurgery.com, and CosmeticSurgery.com. So the writers of Beauty Chat also spend their time contributing to these online properties. More »

When we got a delivery from Kiss Down Under, I was pretty excited about it because I have wanted to try this stuff since I first read about it originally sometime last year.

I started out with the Unisex Cleansing Wash, which is meant to be a personal grooming wash for the pubic area (or as I like to call them “Top Secret Lady Parts.”) Kiss Down Under advertises this product as being guaranteed to give you a “wow” sensation, all while providing you with a stern warning as to how much of the product to use. Being that I am a fairly paranoid person when it comes to the care and maintenance of my nether regions, I took this warning seriously and only used a very small amount of the cleansing wash, which I lathered up with water prior to applying it to my body.

Thank you for all the wonderful comments! It’s great to see how everyone gives back to their community. However, we are only able to choose one winner to receive Ashanti’s favorite Johnson’s Body Care products…congrats to Rachelle Nucci!

Here’s how she contributes:

“I give back to the community because I participate in a lot of things. One of the programs I participate in at school is JROTC. In this class you learn about giving back to others and being a responsible and dedicated leader and a team player. We go over to the middle school every Wednesday and read to the kids that are struggling in their reading classes. I love reading to them because it makes me feel good that I have helped someone out. I also participate in sports, which include volleyball, softball, and I also did the drill team which was a lot of fun.”

We hope you enjoy your gifts!
