$50 Sephora Gift Card Giveaway!

Update: This giveaway has now come to a close. Congratulations to Irene, who entered via the Facebook giveaway page! Please be on the lookout for an email from me soon!


A few months ago, the famed Urban Decay Naked Palette — which had been getting regularly sold out everywhere since its release last year — came back in stock at Sephora online and I immediately snatched one up.

And you know what? It is just as good as all the online reviews say…and more! In fact, I would go as far as to say that for the everyday woman, this is the only eye shadow palette you will need!

I even convinced my SIL to get one herself, and she loves it just as much as I do, if not more. 🙂

Why the long background story? Because you see, I had originally planned on giving away the Urban Decay Naked Palette as this month’s giveaway…

…only to realize that due to its popularity, many of my readers may already have it!

So I decided to use the money toward a gift card from the mecca of beauty stores: Sephora!

That’s right — I am giving away a $50 Sephora gift card!

Running low on your favorite product? Been itching to try the latest and greatest? Need to purchase a gift for a friend?

Well, you may just get lucky and win!

Now, for the rules…

Each reader is eligible for up to three entries via the following methods (each method will grant a separate entry):

  1. Leave a comment to this post about how you would spend the Sephora gift card.
  2. If you haven’t done so already, go to the Geek in Heels Facebook Page and “Like” the page. Then click on the Sephora Gift Card Giveaway link (located right under the profile picture, or just use this link) to enter the sweepstakes.
  3. If you haven’t done so already, follow @geekinheels on Twitter and tweet exactly the following: I just entered for a chance to win a $50 Sephora gift card via @geekinheels at http://bit.ly/rigo5Z and you can too!

Please do not leave extra comments here if you enter via Facebook or Twitter.

You can increase your chances of winning by using all three methods of entry. There is only one entry allowed per person, per method  — for a total possible number of three entries — and any additional entries will be promptly deleted. (Yes, I have ways of checking this. And yes, this will only cause me to get annoyed at you.)

For the complete list of rules, go to this link.

The giveaway begins as soon as this entry is published — August 26, 2011 @ 12:00pm EDT — and will run until September 1, 2011 @ 11:59pm EDT. The winner will be announced here on September 2 and will also be notified by email (so please use a valid email when entering so that I can contact you if you win!) or via a Twititer DM.

Good luck, and thanks for reading! (I love giveaways, don’t you? :-D)

  1. Since I don’t have that palette that you speak so highly of, I’d probably use the gift card to purchase it! 🙂

    I would get the Naked Palette since it comes so highly recommended!

  4. Stacey says:

    Thanks for hosting the great giveaway!

    I’d probably pick up some philosophy bubble bath! I love it and have been out of it forever but it just hasn’t been high on my buy list for some reason. This would be the perfect reason to treat myself to the quiet bath!

  5. Donna says:

    I’m torn between wanting to get my favorite Korres lipstick and restock up on my foundation or getting this Naked Palette which looks AMAZING!

  6. Nev says:

    I love your giveaways Jenny! =D

    I would give it to my maid of honour as a thank-you for all she’s done for me!

  7. christina says:

    I would stock up on my moisturizer Hope in a Jar, I love that stuff!

    I would buy perfume!

  12. Kristin says:

    I’d use it to find a replacement moisturizer now that Philosophy’s hope in a bottle has been discontinued.

  13. Kacy says:

    I would use it for something fun and colorful that I’d be too afraid to take a risk on with my own money (maybe even the eyeshadow)!

  14. April says:

    I would get some nail polish. I need a good orange!!

  15. Dee says:

    I bought the UD palette also and *love* it – I’ve actually considered buying a backup just in case they go out of stock or discontinue it! Right now, I would probably spend the gift certificate on either the UD palette or a new Diorshow mascara.

  16. Ashley says:

    I would use it on… lipstick. Either red, hot pink or orange lipstick. Love.

  17. Carol says:

    I need loads of stuff from Sephora! I need another Purity foam face wash, Hope in a Jar moisturizer, and a new primer.

  23. Cindy says:

    I would probably spend it on a skin care item or a lip gloss… maybe some concealer for my panda-eyes 🙂
    Good luck in the hurricane!

  24. Suzanne says:

    I would probably get some Cake products. I really love the smells and I recently got Strawberry Shortcake bubble bath, yummy!

  25. Mel says:

    I’d loooove to try out a new flat iron.

  26. Lillian says:

    I’d buy makeup forever foundation!

  27. Judy w says:

    I can’t get over the cost of cosmetics so don’t regularly purchase any. If I got a giftcard as part of a giveaway that would be a different story 😉

  28. Amber says:

    Wow, thanks so much, I love Sephora! I would buy a brand new Bite Beauty Lip Pencil in Pomegranate and a Philosophy Cinnamon Buns Shower Gel 🙂

  29. Lauren says:

    I need a new foundation badly!

    I think I would spend it on that Naked palette you have such praise for. It would be so great!
