The recession can suck it: BATF’s first beauty giveaway!

Because I think all you BATF loyalists rock and should indulge in the products I love, I’m excited to announce my very first giveaway!

I’m giving away products over the next month from creator Allison Gallo‘s skincare line, Face It which I also rave about on Marie Claire‘s website here.

Allison is an MIT chemical engineering grad who came out with a fabulous line that focuses on helping 20-somethings start early on anti-aging — not that you have to be in your 20s to use it! I’ve been using it for a few months now and my skin seriously feels so soft. Took about a few weeks to see (and feel!) the difference but the results were totally worth the wait.

So without further ado, from now til 11pm EST on Tuesday 4/14, leave a comment on this post for a chance to win Face It’s anti-aging Smooth Eye-Perator eye cream (normally $50, and one of my personal favorites, seriously!) and the Helping Hand Hydrating Cream (normally $22) which will both come a super cute black plastic makeup bag, compliments of Allison herself. Yup, that’s a little over a $70 giveaway right there.

All you gotta do is get crackin on those comments.*

*Each person is only entered once and will be picked at random. I’ll email the winner Wed 4/15. Good luck!

  1. I’d be a little sad if I started aging at 23 and sincerely hope that is not the case, but I’m all for soft skin. πŸ™‚

    ok well as a dedicated commenter and someone with legitimate major dark circle issues who’s been on a lifelong quest for the perfect eye cream that actually works, i really think i’ve earned it. In fact I think you owe it to me for never having recommended it before, despite having intimate knowledge of my dark circle trials and tribulations! additionally, i’m the oldest commenter on here so yeah these youngins don’t need anti-aging stuff, tell them to wait their turn!

    the end.

    I heard about Face It through a beauty editor at work and was lucky enough to be one of the first people to get their hands on this fab line of products. I have super-sensitive eyes and really bad allergies (my lids swell up if I even think about approaching a beauty counter) so I’ve never been able to use anything on them — until now. The Smooth Eye-perator is a miracle — and I seriously have tried every pricey goo out there. Not only can I use it regularly without any irritation, but it even improved the delicate skin around my sockets. And I’m 30, so this is a big deal!

    I remember taking chemical engineering lectures with Allison at MIT. If there was one student whose advice I would seek on beauty and beauty products, it would be her! By the way – great idea having a giveaway; my g/f will be excited if I win πŸ™‚

    Tayyaba, to answer your question, it contains Matrixyl 3000 that promotes collagen production and is prescribed for wrinkles!
