BeautyStat NYC New York Color Sponsored Holiday Competition 2011

We’ve held other makeup competitions before, and had a terrific response. So, a big thanks to you, dear readers, for never disappointing us when it comes to your beauty tips and tricks.

Now, it’s all about the holiday season, with BeautyStat’s first ever Holiday 2011 Makeup competition. Are you ready? Here’s what the competition is about:

Makeup for Face: We want an overall holiday face look (this includes eye shadows, lipsticks, lip gloss and foundation). Please use a holiday palette to create your looks. It does not have to be from 2011, although of course currency is always welcome.

Be sure to send us a SHORT PARAGRAPH using the products you used to create your look and please proof and spell check this for accuracy since we will publish this paragraph AS IS. Also include a one line of your inspiration –how did you get inspired? Any catalog or advertisement?

NAILS: We will be featuring Holiday Nails for this portion of the contest. Deck your digits in anything that strikes your fancy — the more creative, the better, but solid nail polish application techniques are important too.

We will pick five finalists from the MAKEUP submissions and five finalists from the NAILS submission, and NYC New York Color Cosmetics will help us decide who should be picked.

Then we’ll open up the finalists for your vote, and ultimately there will be one winner in each category, and that winner will take home $300 worth of NYC New York Color cosmetics. If you know the brand at all, you’ll realize that is a TON of makeup! Here’s a sample of what the winners will receive:

NYC New York Color Cosmetics SMokey Green Eyes Palette

NYC SMOOCH PROOF IP STAIN, OPEN WITH CAP,497 ROCK ON RUBY

You may send as many submissions per person but only one entry will ultimately be picked per contestant. Please email your pictures to CONTEST@BEAUTYSTAT.COM by December 15th, 2011.

We will pick the finalists within 72 hours of receiving the submissions and open the contest for your votes. A winner will ultimately be picked by December 25th, 2011.

Good luck, and please spread the word to your friends and family. & of course, Happy Holidays!
