Afrobella’s 12 Days of Giveaways – 8 Milani Lip Flash Sets!

| December 17, 2010

2010 has been quite a year. Through the ups and downs, you’ve stuck by me and I am thankful for every one of you! To celebrate 4 years of Afrobella, my site being back up and running, happiness and health – I’m giving you 12 Days of Giveaways!

On the 8th day of giveaways, Afrobella gave to me…8 complete Milani Lip Flash Sets!

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you’ll know – Milani is one of my favorite brands. Drugstore prices, and some of their cosmetics are seriously department store quality. Their nailpolishes? FIRE. The Black Magic double sided eye pencils? A staple in my makeup arsenal. Their lip glosses? Superb.

True story. Just recently I wound up having a conversation with a random stranger at the grocery store (yes, I’m that lady) about how underrated Milani is. If you see me in the street, ask me. I’m probably wearing some Milani makeup item on my person (if not in my face, then it’s a tube of lipgloss in my purse!) and I will proudly tell you about how much I love it, and how much it costs!

One of my favorite drugstore brands now makes one of my favorite drugstore lip products. Let me proselytize about the glories of Milani Lip Flash.

The quality is awesome, I’ve definitely reviewed high end lip crayons that aren’t as moisturizing or highly pigmented. These are thick, opaque, give great color impact even on darker skintones. For $6.99, these are a STEAL. And the colors? They. Are. Everything. Let me break down my absolute FAVES.

All of the Milani Lip Flash colors are special. Each has some kind of dazzling effect, some are glittery, some are shimmery.

Flashy is sizzling for winter, if you want to add a notice-me pop of color to your look. It’s a deep, hot pink that’s packed with shimmer. Only for the bold.

If you’re feeling a red lip for the holidays (and who isn’t?) you will L-O-V-E Hot Flash, it’s creamy and luxe looking and generally full of win.

Newsflash is probably my favorite. I’m a fool for a dark, sexy purple and this totally fits the bill. It’s a very sultry, holiday cocktail party kind of color. But somehow I’ve been rocking it during the day, when I go out holiday shopping. I love it that much!

Lip Flash is a stunning coppery golden brown that is just GORGEOUS on brown skin tones. Super shimmery, super pretty, so right on for the season.

Every color I’ve tried has been fabulous. And eight of you lucky Afrobella readers will get to find out for yourself!

On the eighth day of giveaways, eight of you will win a complete set of Milani’s Lip Flash pencils. All you have to do is leave a comment below and tell me – which Lip Flash color do you wanna rock over the holiday season?

This will be a QUICK giveaway – comments close Monday. So hurry up!

There are 8 more days of giveaways left, and 8 more days till Christmas!

Good luck!

  2. Angela says:

    I think Newsflash is right up my alley! But I’d love to try any of them!

  3. Cecca says:

    I would rock Hot Flash like it’s my job, because I’ve been playing with a 40s vintage vibe, and nothing completes that look like a bright red lip.

  4. ichoosethesun says:

    Lip Flash is perfect for a GoldenBella like me ;-)

  5. Melany says:

  8. Sol Jack says:

    I would like to rock Hot Flash, Im 14 months natural and i think i could bring more of my naturalnist out with a little color.

  9. deda says:

    I would really love to rock hot flash! I have lost a massive amount of weight recently, so it would definitely complete my “hot mama” vibe I’ve been giving off lately. :)

  10. Chi says:

    I love purples so I would definitely rock Newsflash this winter!

  11. B.Good says:

    I’ve never really rocked a red lip, but I’m inspired to go RED this holiday season! Hot Flash!

  12. BK says:

    I love a good pink on my lip.. I would love to try Flashy!! I won’t lie I have slept on this line..I’ll add to my list of things to try

  13. DLee says:

    Lip Flash – I’m all about the earth tones

  14. Lisalis says:

    Starflash, definitely! I used to have a color like this that I used on the center of my lips to make my full lips really look “pookie” and kissable. I can’t find it any more. I use it on top of almost any lip color to get that 3-dimensional color and shine.

  15. Shones says:

    Thanks for re-acquainting me with this line. I am admittedly one of the people who has *slept* on Milani. Newsflash would be my choice. Deep purple tends to look really good on me, but it can be hard to find the right one sometimes. It appears to be quite dramatic. :)

  16. Tulani23 says:

    I would definitely rock “Hot Flash”! Red is always that “it” color for any kind of season!

  17. Kiwistardust says:

    Ooooh – Lip Flash would fit me to a T! Coppery/earthy colors complement my dark skin tone :)

  18. Eve says:

    I think I would like the Hot Flash the most because I want to do something more exciting with my lips now!
