#7!  Marcie!

“My hands get super nasty in the winter, these oils would be great added to my fave lotion!”

Please e-mail me with your contact information so you can receive your prize.  My e-mail address is: melissa@crunchesforcupcakes.com

I’m so happy to be able to host yet another giveaway for Crunches for Cupcakes readers…

A gift set of Weleda Body Oils!

“Weleda Body Oils are formulated from carefully selected plant oils.  Enriched with plant extracts and pure essential oils, they care for the entire body.”

I don’t know about you guys…  But the cold weather has already gotten to my skin.  My face is dry, I’m battling chapped lips, and my back is often itchy.  I’m a fan of Weleda products.  I put Skin Food lotion on my hands and feet each night before I go to bed.

According to Weleda, “your body encounters many environmental issues on a daily basis. For instance, the use of aggressive soaps while bathing or showering, exposure to the sun, air conditioning, and saunas all contribute to dry skin. All Weleda plant oils, when used for massage or beauty care, are food for the skin.”

Here’s your chance to receive 6 little bottles of Weleda body oils:

• Amica Massage Oil
• Lavender Relaxing Body Oil
• Birch Cellulite Body Oil
• Sea Buckthorn Body Oil
• Pomegranate Regenerating Body Oil
• Wild Rose Body Oil

To Enter:

Leave a comment on this post telling me about one skin complaint that you have against winter weather.

I’ve sampled 2 of these body oils out of the set.  I’ve enjoyed the scent of the Amica Massage Oil and the Birch Cellulite Oil.  I’ve used them post-shower in place of my regular body lotion and I can notice a difference.  Without being greasy and messy, the oil sinks into my skin and helps protect it from environmental effects throughout the day.

These body oils would be a great way to pamper yourself during the holiday season, or they’d be the perfect stocking stuffer for a loved one!

*This contest will run until Friday afternoon.  I will randomly select one winner on Friday, December 10, 2010.*

I did it!

I completed my 2nd Half Marathon, and this time I ran in under 2 hours.

1:54:31 to be exact.  Becky and I ran together the entire time.  It was great to have my cousin by my side.  We pushed each other to succeed!  I can’t wait to write my race recap.

And now, the Thriv giveaway winner!

I need some cute workout shirts!

How am I growing as a person? I think setting little challenges for myself and completing them. And the fact that I made it through another crazy semester of school and managed to surprise myself with how well I did. And that I’m beginning to see myself as a healthy person…not just a fat girl trying to think skinny.

*Please e-mail melissa@crunchesforcupcakes.com with your mailing address and t-shirt size*

Thrive

1. to make steady progress; prosper
2. to grow vigorously; flourish

Like my favorite quote from 13 Going on 30, “Thirty and flirty and THRIVING!”

Male readers can win this nice workout t-shirt.

And female readers have the chance to win this pretty piece of workout gear.

The deadline for this giveaway is Sunday, May 2nd.  I will be picking a winner on Sunday afternoon, after I finish running my 2nd Half Marathon.

I’m hoping to make steady progress with my running.  I ran my 1st Half Marathon in 2:05 and my goal is to finish the 2nd one in under 2 hours.  I’m nervous so send good vibes my way!  When I announce the winner on Sunday afternoon, I’ll let you know if I was successful!

“Thirty and flirty and THRIVING.”  (only kidding for now, I’m 26 years old.)
