I won!

On Friday night, I was wandering around the Etsy forums, and I came across an interesting thread in the promotions section. It was for a contest being held by Sakura Bath and Body. They had made a lovely treasury, and if you could guess what movie the treasury represented, you won a free lip balm. Here is the treasury. As you can see, I was the lucky winner. Shortly thereafter, I received a convo from Sakura Bath and Body asking me to chose a flavor. To be honest, I was a bit surprised by this. For free, I was expecting it to just be whatever flavor they chose. It was really cool that I got to choose. My choices were: Vanilla Ice Cream, CranGrape, Strawberry, Citrus Punch, Bubblegum, Hazelnut, Lemon Pound Cake, Raspberry Lemonade, Very Vanilla, Watermelon, or Pomegranate. Seeing that I haven't had bubblegum flavored lip balm since I was very young, I couldn't resist. My lip balm shipped the very next day (on a Saturday), which was also very impressive. It arrived Monday, and was on my lips before I even made it back to my apartment from the mailbox. Again, I was impressed. As I've mentioned before, I've got health issues. With one of my conditions, my pituitary gland doesn't produce the hormone necessary for the body to process water. Even with medication, I'm still always severely dehydrated. The only visible symptom of this (aside from when I pass out randomly) would be that my lips are always REALLY, REALLY dry. Always. So, I have lip balm everywhere. I keep some in the car, in my purse, in the bathroom, on my sewing table, on my night stand, ect. So, for me to find a really hydrating lip balm that doesn't taste nasty is really important. This lip balm is exactly that. It tastes great and left my lips soft and hydrated. Yippie! I will definitely be back for more, and to try to some of her other goodies!!
