<p>The Fall/Winter season is around the corner, and it&#8217;s time to pull out those gorgeous deep lip colors to accentuate your sexy pout. As I stated about a week ago on <a href="http://facebook.com/accidentalbeauty">Facebook</a>, I&#8217;ll be holding tiny unscheduled giveaways to my lovely readers and blog followers, with some help from my friend Linda at <a href="http://rock-the-catwalk.com">Rock-the-Catwalk</a>.

<p>Up for grabs we have the lovely <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/spp.tmpl?CATEGORY_ID=CAT168&amp;PRODUCT_ID=310">Hang Up cremesheen</a> by MAC. A beautiful deep berry with super tiny blue and purple sparkles &#8212; that seem to disappear once on your lip. This lipstick is a blue toned berry that <strong>any</strong> skin-tone can rock, I promise. It may look scary in the tube, but it goes on smooth and creamy and it&#8217;s very work-friendly. It&#8217;s not too gothic or vampy, its very wearable. A total winner!</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Getting my own beauty blog up and running was an idea in my head for almost a year. I honestly did not think I'd EVER have the time to pull out items from my collection, swatch them for you, take pics, upload, repeat -- not to mention design and build it all!! But one snowy day, I said <em>"F*ck it, I have to do this"</em>, and here we are. In three days this site will be one month old but it's already my baby, and I love that it's available to the entire world. I especially love my readers. You guys are why I do this. Whether you're a lurker or a frequent commenter, I absolutely adore you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to even come by and visit me here, it really means a lot. To show my appreciation, I am having my first blog giveaway :D *poplocks*]]></description>
