Because any alternative is a better alternative.

I know I still owe you a post on Glittersniffer (and about a million other things), but for now, satire will have to do. Astonishingly, somehow, Glittersniffer is still somewhat in business. They are making things and selling them and carrying on as if they don't owe tens of thousands of dollars to their previous customers and generally aren't scum-sucking criminals who knowingly sold unsafe products marketed specifically for use on children.

Giveaway!

So, fine. I'm hosting a giveaway to celebrate Glittersniffer's return. All you have to do to enter is come up with an ironic slogan or strapline for Glittersniffer to help them re-launch. For example:

"Glittersniffer: colours that will (literally) make your face melt!"

You don't have to be a wordsmith, just have fun! The winner will be chosen at random so even those lesser gifted in the sarcasm department can still win. If you can't decide what to say, you can suggest more than one, but it only counts as one entry.

Prize!

The prize for this is a $25 giftcard to spend at an online indie makeup/B&B company - any other indie makeup/B&B company because, let's face it, absolutely anyone is better than Glittersniffer.

Details!

The giveaway runs for 2 weeks, from now until 10th September at 11:59pm GMT, and the winner will be announced within 3 days - so get your entries in quick!

It's open worldwide and you can earn an extra entry by sharing the giveaway either on your blog, Twitter or Tumblr (not facebook this time because last time there was an issue with privacy settings) for up to a total of four. Just include what you did when you post your entry, along with links so I can check it out.

The winner will be announced on the blog & via e-mail if you choose to leave it - you don't have to, as it will be visible to the public. They'll have a week to respond to claim their prize, otherwise I'll draw someone else.
