This week we continue the Eco Holiday Giveaways with a giveaway sponsored by Tara Burner. How’d you like to win a Green Gift Bag and a $25 coupon code to anything from Affordable Mineral Makeup? Sounds good huh!! This would make a great Christmas gift. It would also be just as nice to win something this time of year. With the economy the way it is, winning some eco-friendly items, wouldn’t be so bad, right?
The Green Gift Bag contains a soy candle and guess what? You get to choose the scent! From Gardenia, Vanilla-Orange or Creme Brulee. I’d probably pick Gardenia. I love the smell of those flowers. The candle is non-toxic as it is made from soy. You can burn it for hours and have no worries of chemicals spreading into your home environment. Breathe in the scent of your choice and you there’s no worry about toxins or polluting the planet for that matter.
The olive (dark green) colored gift bag is a Baggu Bag made from strong re-usable Nylon with handles large enough to wear over your shoulder. It’s perfect for shopping! You can never have too many of these bags. I use them for all sorts of reasons. I find they come in handy for any occassion. They’re great to have lying around the home.
In the past year and half or so, I moved on to mineral makeup. I enjoy using products that I know are harmless to my body and when applied look natural! I don’t apply makeup often but when I do I don’t want to look like a clown. I like the natural look. I still want to be me. Makeup only enhances beauty…but sometimes we can get carried away using it. I’ve found that using mineral makeup you don’t have to apply as much because a little goes a long way. So, that means your won’t be spending as much sooner either.
Affordable Mineral makeup has NO chemicals, fillers, parabens, petroleum, oils or dyes, perservatives, fragrances OR Lead. It is not tested on animals either AND does not contain animal by products- meaning you won’t be applying whale blubber to your lips! This is your opportunity. If you haven’t tried to green up your beauty routine, you’ll get to test out this product and see what you’ve been missing. You can use some of the multi purpose minerals wet or dry using them as a lip gloss or eye color and even a nail polish.
What’s great is that Affordable Mineral Makeup will not clog your pores, it contains a natural SPF in it, helps work through the breakouts with it’s zinc content, and is water resistant. Above all, it’s affordable!!! Doesn’t that sound eco-fabulous?
Today, you have the chance to look your best this holiday season by entering to win! Don’t forget though, after you’re looking your best, you’ll have a new Baggu bag to go shopping with and a soy candle to keep any room in your home smelling good. This giveaway has a $60 value!

I love Afffordable Mineral Makeup and am especially in love with the mineral foundation colors Medium Biege and Dark Medium Biege because those are the two colors that work best for me. Also, I very much am a HUGE fan of the Organic Coconut Lip Balm. It is so smooth and smells yummy. Wish I had more money to give more things a try, but so far I love the few things that I have tried. Thanks!!

As much as I love the bag I *need* some make-up that is safe. I would go with: Mini Affordable Mineral Makeup Kit because it is affordable, a sampling of many colours, which is good as I usually do not use make-up yet their are times I would like to if I could find decent make-up that I could afford.

The round tapered brush sounds interesting, it is made from goat hair! A makeup brush is a good investment and should last if you learn how to clean them.
