Weekend Roundup - April 16

Is winter trying to hold on where you live? We aren't going to let it! While we all hope the rain and snow storms (along with tornadoes) go away, let's take a tour of spring and summer, starting with three giveaway contests.

Gaia has a fabulous and fragrant giveaway at The Non-Blonde: three samples of Zeta, the fabulous new Andy Tauer fragrance. Enter the contest by Monday, April 18, to join the Tauer club.

Kari is giving away a copy of The Makeup Wakeup by Sandy Linter and Lois Joy Johnson at Fab over Forty. Enter by Monday, April 18, if you want to find out from a pro how to revitalize your look at any age.

I have a dynamite giveaway contest going, thanks to the beautiful Rozz, J. Don't forget to enter here to win the FBR Cosmetics lip gloss of your choice. The deadline is today (Saturday) at midnight. If you win, you will love your new gloss. Take my word for it!

Amy showed us stunning new Dior summer eye shadow palettes at Café Makeup. The Summer Tropics Collection will leave you with a tough choice if you want to buy only one piece.

Are you excited about Prince William and Kate Middleton's wedding? Butter London launched their No More Waity Katie lip gloss yesterday. Find out about it from Carla at Product Girl.

Anne told us how to turn into a bronze goddess with Temptu's new bronzer air pods. Check out BeautyXposé to see how you can spray your way to bronze perfection.

Are you a Bare Escentuals groupie? Kelly featured the new, must-have Good Morning, Gorgeous! seven-piece set at Gouldylox Reviews.

Sabrina showed us yummy, pastel Chanel Le Vernis Shades for summer at The Beauty Look Book. Go see Morning Rose, Beige Pétale, and Mimosa (the shade everyone seems to want).

We need white teeth to look our best. Debbi showed us how to whiten our teeth in just two hours at DivaDebbi. The before and after photos will make you a Crest believer.

Some beautiful fragrances were featured in Jane's random, beautiful thoughts this week at Daly Beauty. Stop by to find out what she's loving.

I got my hands on the Chanel summer makeup collection. Even though the sun didn't cooperate with my photography, I wanted to show you the collection early in the week. Just scroll down or use the blog archive to see the pieces I bought. I caved on the eyeliner and purchased it. Rose Platine is exquisite. I hope to get a photo or two for you tomorrow. There won't be any new photos today; it's supposed to rain - a lot. I'm hoping we don't have tornadoes too.

Take care of yourself this weekend!
