Hair and Skin Giveaway From Avène and Klorane
I love love love hosting giveaways on my blog, especially when they’re products I’ve had so much luck with personally.
You would have read about how much I love Avene in particular, being the only products I would allow near my skin when I broke out with terrible acne in 2010/2011. Their sensitive skin care ranges are perfect for providing the care your skin needs without any harsh over-exfoliating, shedding too many natural oils or over-moisturising – they’re just perfect!
Klorane, as we all know, are the OGs when it comes to dry shampoo. But what a lot of people don’t know is that they have great hair care products, too. I’m a huge fan of the camomile shampoo and conditioner, especially when I am just about due for a touch up on my colour; it really puts some sparkle back in your blonde locks.
To celebrate the launch of Klorane and Avène’s new Facebook pages, I have eight separate packs to give away. Four hair care packs and four skin care packs each suited to a particular ‘type’ of skin and hair. Here are all the prizes:
- Oily skin- Cleanance Soapless Cleanser, Cleanance Anti-Shine Regulating Lotion, Cleanance K, Thermal Spring Water.
- Normal skin- Gentle Gel Cleanser, Gentle Toner, Hydrance Optimale Light, Thermal Spring Water.
- Dry skin- Gentle Milk Cleanser, Gentle Toner, Soothing Moisture Mask, Thermal Spring Water.
- Ageing skin- Ystheal+ Emulsion, Ystheal+ Cream, Ystheal+ Eye Contour, Thermal Spring Water.
- Colour treated hair-Colour enhancing shampoo and conditioner (Pomegranate).
- Blonde/light hair- Brightening and highlighting shampoo and conditioner for blonde and light brown hair (Camomile).
- Dry and damaged hair- Smoothing and nourishing shampoo and conditioner for dry and damaged hair (Mango Butter).
- Weak and thinning hair- Fortifying and revitalizing shampoo and conditioner for weak and thinning hair (Quinine & Vitamin B)
To be in the draw to win one of these fabulous prizes, simply ‘like’ the Klorane and Avene pages on Facebook (don’t worry, they’re not annoying and spam-y like some pages) then tell me in the comments section which pack you need the most. You can enter with one from each (hair and skin) if you like, or just one or the other.
- Giveaway begins on February 16 2012 and will close on Midday (AEST) 25 February 2012
- Winners will be notified by email shortly thereafter. If a reply email containing the winner’s postal address is not received by 29 February 2012, the prize will be forfeited and awarded to another entrant
- Entry is open to residents of Australia only
Win a $500 shopping spree with fashion editor, Katerina Agiostratitis
Ho, Ho, Ho I feel like Santa with another fantastic giveaway! This time it’s fashion-based and I am so excited to be able to offer one of my fashion-loving readers a $500 shopping spree and half-day styling and shopping session with fashion editor, Katerina Agiostratitis.
Katerina makes the pages of Cosmopolitan’s Bride and Pregnancy magazines look beautiful, but you don’t have to be expecting or planning a wedding to get some expert tips from her!
Taking place in Sydney’s CBD, Katerina will help you to get a new look with a huge $500 to spend on shiny new things all thanks to 30 Days of Fashion and Beauty.
You may remember all the fun things that were on offer around Australia during 30DOF like beauty masterclasses at Priceline with leading beauty editors such as Woman’s Day’s Mary Zavaglia, the latest looks from Katherine, Alex Perry and Cue in the free Grazia fashion shows at Town Hall and Pandora’s Romantic Rock Runway show. I , personally, had a ball galavanting around Sydney enjoying the Priceline Pamper Tent in Martin Place, Sally Hansen’s world-record-breaking manicure marathon and Alex Perry’s exclusive show in the Commonwealth Bank vault showcasing his stunning gowns with Cerrone jewels.
Given that this is quite a big giveaway, I’m making it a little more tricky to be in the running. To enter, watch the two short videos below and email the answers to the 5 questions listed to marlo@marloperry.com Once you’ve emailed me, please leave a comment just saying ‘emailed’ so I know to look out for your entry (sometimes they go to the spam folder).

- Which mobile phone app helps you to keep track of your money?

The Ultimate Beauty, Home and Lifestyle Giveaway
One of my extremely lucky readers will be having an extra merry Christmas this year when they receive a hamper of goodies from some of my favourite beauty, home and lifestyle brands worth $450!
The whole prize is made up of the following:
The Aromatherapy Company Candle The Aromatherapy Company Body and Bath Oil The Aromatherapy Company Sleep and Energy Pulse Points The Aromatherapy Company Viva La Colour No.5 50ml Diffuser WYLD man and WYLD Woman JOICO K-PAK Revitaluxe Treatment JOICO K-PAK Color Therapy Shampoo, Conditioner and Restorative Styling Oil Nad’s Facial Wand Eyebrow Shaper Nad’s Natural Hair Removal Gel Klorane Dry Shampoo Avène Thermal Spring Water Avène Gentle Milk Cleanser Avène Skin Recovery RICH cream Avène Hand Cream
Obviously this is my biggest ever giveaway so it will require a little more than my usual one-word answers to get yourself in the draw. To be in the running to win this amazing pack, tell me which one of the products listed above is your favourite and why.
Haven’t tried any of the products before? No worries! Visit one of the brands’ sites, get a little background info and tell me why you want to try out a product. Extra credit if you tell me it’s because you’ve got a low sex drive and you really need WYLD for a bit of Summer lovin’.
I want to do a whole post on this topic, but just quickly: Avene is the brand that I attribute to the diminished appearance of my acne scars. I was too scared to put anything except Avene on my skin because it’s so delicate and now, post-insane breakout period, I still use it to heal the scarring. If you have any skin issues you really, really need to try it out.
Good luck with the competition and Merry Christmas!
