Contest Ideas?

So I’m looking to do another contest in the near future! Probably when I hit 10,000 watchers on DeviantArt. What would you guys like to see with this contest? What should you do to win? What type of prizes?

On a side note: 

I’m currently in first place for the BH Cosmetics contest (http://www.bhcosmetics.com/Contest/) thanks to you guys ! A lot of people may think my makeup is a bit out there, but you guys have shown that there are people out there that appreciate crazy makeup! Thanks guys!

Halloween Contest with BH Cosmetics!

Halloween Contest!

So with Halloween coming up, I’m in need of a costume and I think you guys might be able to help! I need you guys to think of the most amazing theme ever! For example, someone suggests zombie. (don’t suggest zombie unless you’ve got some completely new and amazing thing that no one has ever thought of!) They’d have to tell me how the make-up would look for the zombie, how the clothes would work, even hair if it’s important.

I mainly am looking for impressive make-up, but if you’ve got a great outfit idea, throw it my way! Though no promises I’ll be able to do it. I fail at sewing.

One thing I’d like to have, is that I still look slightly attractive! Haha! I don’t want to completely disfigure my face and call myself the walking dead. I’d rather be something fun and crazy! Oh and no, I’m not one of those girls that finds it alright to dress like a “floozy” because “it’s, like… Halloween?” So no “Sexy such and such” costumes! Just something fun, maybe pretty, freaking awesome and completely amazing!

Rules:

• You must follow at least ONE of my sites. It can be any of them, twitter, youtube, tumblr, facebook or deviantart. Though if you want to keep your submission a secret so no one steals it, you can email me at katie.alves@hotmail.com.

• If I pick a suggestion that multiple people have suggested, it’ll be who ever says it first. BUT if I like someone’s suggestion better, like they went further with the details and gave me more inspiration to do it, then I’ll go with them. In the end, it’s my decision! No fights about it!

• You can post as many ideas as you want, just don’t post the same thing over and over again. Just be sure to submit your ideas one at a time.

• Try to give an explanation to your submission, don’t just put “zombie”. Then someone might steal your idea and make it awesome-r

• This contest is international! EVERYONE can enter. You may force me to spend a billion dollars in shipping, but that’s alright. I’ll still love you.

• There will be 3 winners! First place is the costume I’ll wear (as long as I can design it. If I can’t, I’ll go with the 2nd or 3rd, which ever works!) If for some terrible reason, I don’t really like any of them, I’ll still pick 3 winners! Don’t worry! But from the ideas that have been floating around already, I’m sure that won’t be a problem!

• After the winners have been chosen, you’ve got 1 week to respond! If I hear nothing from you by then, then I will pick another winner! If you post on facebook, I’ll most likely have to friend you to send you the message. (We can be best friends!)

• The contest will run until September 30th at 11:59 EST! But why would you wait that long anyways?

• I’d like you all to have a look at BH Cosmetics sites! They run other contests all the time, so go follow them! Here’s a link to all their sites! http://www.youtube.com/bhcosmetics

PRIZES!

I know, you probably ALL scrolled down here to see what the prizes were. Prizes were donated by the wonderful BH Cosmetics. Ever since I got the 3 generations of BH eyeshadow palettes , it’s practically all I use! So I’m positive you guys will love it too!

1st

BH Cosmetics 120 1st generation eyeshadow palette.

So bright, so many colours! When I first got these, I didn’t even realize it was two layers! Best surprise ever! Link to the product here: http://www.bhcosmetics.com/products/eyes/120-Color-Eyeshadow-Palette-1st-Edition/

2nd

BH Cosmetics 88 Color Shimmer eyeshadow palette.

This one I’m jealous of, because I actually don’t have the shimmer palettes! Though there are some shimmers in my 120 palettes, so I know they’re awesome! You HAVE to try the gold one! Oh my god it’s so shiny! I adore it. Link:

http://www.bhcosmetics.com/products/eyes/88-Color-Shimmer-Eyeshadow-Palette/

3rd

BH Cosmetics Brushes:

-Small Smudge Brush

-Classic Smudge Brush

-Precision Eyeliner Brush

-Fine Eyeliner Brush

-Angled Eyeliner Brush

I use these brushes for all of my work and they’re awesome! I might add in something eyeshadow-y, because I don’t want someone to be like “Yay! Brushes! But I don’t have any eyeshadows… crap!”  So you’ll most likely get a surprise if you get third! Link: http://www.bhcosmetics.com/products/brushes/

So I want you guys to enter, right this second! Get an awesome idea, plan it out and SEND! Tell your friends, your family, your pets, everyone! I’m so excited for this contest! Seriously. Make me proud to have awesome fans like you!
