The Lipstick League – week of 2.13.12
Take a look at two of the beauties who stopped by Ruff’s Raffle last weekend and scored our fabulous gift bags. We raised just under $2000 for The Amanda Foundation, which will help them save a hefty amount of dogs and cats. But I have to say, almost as good as raising money for such a good cause is seeing people’s faces light up as they dig through gift bags (“a Murad eye cream? OMG!”) and if they’re really lucky, win a raffle basket. I’ll never forget the shriek of joy that one of the winners let out when we called her name.
Thanks to all the companies who generously donated, we couldn’t have done it without you!
Question of the Week: – What’s currently at the top of your beauty lemming list?

The Hunger Games nail polishes. I’m still figuring out the kinks to my nail design, but there’s a few polishes I’m looking out for (especially a particular electric orange.)
I’m so glad the event was such a success! Right now I’m not lemming anything in particular. I’m really excited for my nail art stamping set to get here in the mail!

Such a great time…such amazing donations!! Love, love, LOVE this event, year in and year out!
With no money to spend on make-up at the moment, I really want the new Minaj Viva Glam and some new eyeshadows!
I just knew the event would be a success! What a great cause.. I just shows how much do we love animals at WHT!
I’m not wanting much of anything at the moment but soon I’ll be out of Fresh’s Lemon Sugar purfume.. I love that so will be getting it eventually!
Aww – look how cute those ladies are – and the giftbags look pretty fab too! Thanks for all the support wht readers – we had a great time and the event was twice as successful as last year! Woot.
As far as lemming, I’m STILL waiting to get my hands on the original Naked palette. I can’t believe it is not mine yet!

Congratulations on having a successful raffle! You ladies do good work–saving pooches and kitties. From my obscenely big-eared dog and I: Thank you! :)
The item I am currently lemming is the kelly green Clarisonic Mia. I want one SOOOO bad, it’s ridiculous.
The event sounds like a huge success! And, I have to say, the gift bags were amazing, (I was one of those also shrieking over the Murad eye cream and the BPAL). How generous and kind all of the donators were, they definitely have my future business!
