Totally Awesome Beauty Package, Take Two

I have a very cute niece. I just thought you should know. I met her this weekend and, really, she’s on the ridiculously cute side. I’d say she’s perfect but word is that all the sleeping she did was just for show. Come midnight she’s wide awake and rearing to go till the sun comes up.
This leads me to believe one of two things. One, she has it out for her mom, who no longer understands what the word sleep even means. Or two, she’s a vampire. I’m going with one, but you just never know…
And also: I’ve hit 200 posts. I know that’s terribly boring for everyone except me, but I’m telling you anyway. (Because it’s my blog and I can do that sort of thing.) I’m not sure what thrill I was expecting to get out of hitting the 200 mark, but I’ll tell you what: it’s good to know I can stick at something 200 posts long.
In other news, someone won my first-ever Totally Awesome Beauty Contest. Before I reveal the mystery number, I thought you’d be interested in my Totally Awesome Beauty Contest, Part 2. That’s right: The fun continues.
This time, you can win a package of 11 products:
Philosophy The Fragrance eau de parfum
Trilogy botanical body wash
Mario Badescu Enzyme Cleansing Gel
Pureology hair care sampler pack
Foot Petals strappy strips (to numb the ouch that comes with strappy shoes)
Kiehl’s creamy eye treatment
Madame Paulette professional stain remover kit
Clinique Almost Lipstick in Black Raisin
Benefit Eye Bright
Nars face powder in Venus
Benefit Silky Powder eye shadow in Soft Shoulder
The rules are the same. And because I care (always, you know) I’ll bullet point them for you:
- You can enter once a day until the contest ends
- There are three ways to enter: Leave a comment, tweet about the contest (the link’s here: http://bit.ly/csVxuI), or become a friend through Google Friend Connect
- You can enter all three ways—or just one.
- The contest will end Friday, Aug. 6. I’ll announce the winner on Monday, Aug. 9. Happiness ensues.
So there you have it. Another contest. Another chance to win.
And speaking of winning, Random Number Generator says No. 75 gets the loot. (The comments went to 78 when I picked a winner last night.)

So, Deanna G., send an address to tracey@notsuperhuman.com and I’ll mail you the goods.
Oh, by the way, any comment gets you an entry. But if you’re at a loss for what to say, tell me which actor or actress you can’t stand.
I’ll even go first—just to break the ice, you know. I can’t take David Caruso from CSI Miami. The way he takes his sunglasses off to punctuate each and every one-liner he says makes me want to throw a rock at my TV.

David Caruso is so annoying!! I stopped watching that show because of him…
I’m so happy you’re giving away another package
Hopefully I’ll win the goods this time around

Wow, another great giveaway! I hope I win. I have to think about the actor thing and get back to you. A lot of tv personalities annoy me, but right now I’m drawing a blank!
[Reply]
Oh, there are so many that I just can’t stand. I find it’s easier to just watch The Soup on E!, they make fun of everybody! Probably Lindsey Lohan tops my list. . .today.

That’s exciting that you’ve hit 200 posts! Congratulations
Also, I think that many children may secretly be of the vampiric type. You never know when they’re going to turn on you.

Oh the Kiehls… that stuff is awesome.
I’m crossing my fingers for this one.
And I can’t stand Matthew Mcconaughey. Does anyone else think it’s weird he won’t drop his southern accent… even when he plays a New Yorker? Put a shirt on and go home please…
[Reply]
what a great give away! can only think of the ones I like right now..
[Reply]
What a great giveaway package!! I’ve never won a giveaway before, maybe I will be lucky this time!
[Reply]
I am with ya on the David Caruso thing. The man cannot act and looks like a leprechan to boot. Also can’t watch Catherine Zeta Jones. She irritates me.
Congrats on the 200 posts and keep them coming!
[Reply]
200 – confetti, applause!!
What a beautiful giveaway:) I cannot stand Jennifer Love Hewitt. I can’t believe Lifetime still thinks she’s an actress.
[Reply]
i really can’t stand will ferrel. really? his movies suck.
[Reply]
Is it too obvious for me to say that I can’t stand Mel Gibson!
[Reply]
I really would love that beauty package, but I also can’t pass an opportunity to say how annoying Lindsay Lohan is!
[Reply]
Looks like an awesome beauty package!!
Lately, Katherine Heigl is my least favorite actress… she seems pretty conceited to me, and doesn’t seem to appreciate all the opportunities she’s had!
[Reply]
i cant stand jessica biel…”too pretty” to get roles in hollywood??
[Reply]
Will Ferrell…I cannot stand him. Miley Cyrus (if she can be considered an actress). Angelina Jolie kind of bothers me. Lindsey Lohan, Zac Ephron (sp?)…I could go on for hours. But my grammar is getting worse and I’m sure you are getting bored so I’ll spare you. Instead allow me to congratulate you on 200 posts!
[Reply]
Ooohhhh, another giveaway! So I wasn’t lucky the first time , but I will win this time!
My award for most irritating celebs: Miley Cyrus (can’t she just go away with her talent-less self?!) and the Kardashian family (Do any of them even have talent besides looking pretty?). Congrats on 200 posts–that is certainly an achievement!
[Reply]
I would love to win the Foot Petals strappy strips for my heels!
hmm I have to agree with the Mel Gibson comment!!!
[Reply]
oooo, I hate David Caruso! Flames… flames on the side of my face…
I can’t think of anyone who matches him for loathesomeness but Nicolas Cage is up there.
[Reply]
I love give a ways! I don’t like Sarah Jessica Parker. She annoys me.
[Reply]
what a fantastic stash! nars rocks, just thought id say that!
[Reply]
tweeted it
[Reply]
How the heck did you ever land such sweet loot?
[Reply]
You know, there are male readers of this blog too :S I still want the gift pack to give it as gift so I will comment. I cannot stand Megan Fox – she is SOOOOOO overated!
Arm-Bar!

i cant stand bobby flay….even though he’s not really an actor. i love foodnetwork but bobby flay just gets to me for some reason. maybe after he completely disrespected the legacy of iron chef japan when he stood on the table??

talking some more, but now in response to the acupuncture. i’ve always wanted to try it as i have approx 2 dibilitating migraines per week. i’m on medication that doesn’t always help. A friend recommended acupuncture, however i can’t afford the $100 price tag for each session and unfortunately, insurance won’t cover that. grrr. some day when i’m a little more financially stable, i’d love to be able to commit at least 6 months to regular treatments to see if i notice a difference in the frequency of my migraines.

Yikes, two migraines a week? That sounds awful! My insurance paid for my acupuncture, which is why I could try it out. You might want to read What Your Doctor May Not Tell You About Migraines: The Breakthrough Program That Can Help End Your Pain
. One of the authors, Alexander Mauskop, MD, heads up the New York Headache Center. He recommends taking magnesium, riboflavin and feverfew supplements daily to prevent (but not heal) migraines. The book goes into more detail about the type of supplement, food sources that make migraines worse, etc. But I found it pretty interesting. Just an FYI!

anybody out there ever use fashion tape? i’m getting married next week and unfortunately, when i move just right, my undergarment slightly peeks out of my dress. wondering what the best fashion tape would be in order to tape the two fabrics together. any suggestions?

I’ve used Invisible Style Tape (it’s the one pictured here, though I didn’t get it with the bra clips). I’m not sure if it would work on a heavy duty dress, but it helped keep the hem of a lightweight dress up.
Oh, and congrats on the coming marriage!
