New winner selected for Montagne Jeunesse Giveaway...

I don't want to sound like a broken record (but I am): You have GOT to check your spam folders OR add me to your address book if you are going to enter my giveaways. As extra insurance, you can always set a reminder for yourself to come back to this blog the day after a giveaway ends, because I will always post the winners' names here so that if, for any reason at all, my email doesn't get to you, you can still contact me to claim your prizes.

And with that, I am sad to announce that one of the winners of the Montagne Jeunesse Giveaway failed to respond after 24 hours (magic5905) so another winner was just drawn.

Congratulations to tedoni who has just snagged a 5-piece skincare kit from Montagne Jeunesse!

Tedoni, I have just sent you an email so please respond ASAP to claim your goodies!

That's it for this Valentine's Day Giveaway Series, but I really hope that you'll check back in a little while because I have got two incredible giveaways planned for February and I promise you'll love 'em! And once again, if you enter, check your spam folders the day after the giveaways ends, or add me to your address book (my email's in my profile) to ensure that you do not miss my notification if you win!

You do not want to miss these giveaways, I promise! So please check back soon. :)

Carmex Giveaway winners, new winner for Sugar Kiss and a VERY important message!

In this post I will be announcing the winners of the Carmex Giveaway, and also announcing one new winner in the Love's Sugar Kiss Giveaway. But before I do that, please take a minute to read this if you enter any of the giveaways on Nouveau Cheap:

I want remind you that I always give you TWO ways to find out if you won.  In addition to emailing the winners directly, I also post the winner's names right here on Nouveau Cheap after every single giveaway.  So if for any reason my email gets trapped in your spam folder OR lost in cyberspace, you ALWAYS have an alternate way of finding out if you won.

So if for any reason you did NOT receive my email (or it got trapped in your spam folder, etc.) check here on the day after a giveaway ends and you will ALWAYS see a list of winners.  Also, if you see your name in the list of winners for a giveaway and you are concerned that either you did not receive my original email or that I did not receive your reply, you can always leave a comment here on my blog that says something like: "Hey, I never got your email but I want to claim my prize!". Just be sure you leave that comment within 24 hours of when I post the winners in order to claim your prize (as per the rules of my giveaways).

Now, on to the winners of the Carmex Giveaway! Congratulations to the following three winners who each snagged themselves a 13-piece kit compliments of Carmex:

lilritagrl
andraruscoe

Winners, I have just sent each of you an email so please respond ASAP (and of course see the info above if you have any issues or questions!). Thanks so much!

Next, I want to announce a new winner in the Love's Sugar Kiss Giveaway. Unfortunately, bubblegumgirl failed to respond to my notification email within 24 hours, so a new winner has been chosen.  

The new winner of the Love's Sugar Kiss Giveaway is:

One new winner selected in the Nailene Giveaway

As per the terms of all of my giveaways, all winners have 24 hours to respond to my email and if they fail to do so, another winner is randomly selected using random.org.  Sadly, one of the five winners of my Nailene giveaway (dadulka11) did not respond to my email within 24 hours, so that winner has now forfeited the prizes and I just selected another winner.  Ladies (and gentlemen): I must repeat that it's essential that you check your spam folders! Since my emails have the words "congratulations" and "giveaway" in them, some email services may automatically direct messages from me to the spam folder. Also, to prevent this from ever happening in the future, feel free to add my email address (nouveaucheap@gmail.com) to your address book to ensure that if you ever win one of my giveaways, you will receive my email with no problems at all!

That said, I'm happy to announce the new winner of the Nailene Giveaway:

contestsandsuch

Congrats, contestsandsuch! I have just sent you an email (and it looks like you've already responded so I'll write you back right after I post this!).

Thanks again to everyone who has entered my Valentine's Day Giveaways, and just a reminder that you still have time to enter both the Carmex 13-piece Giveaway and the Montagne Jeunesse Gift Pack Giveaway, but hurry because they both end VERY soon!

Valentine's Giveaway #2: Love's Sugar Kiss and Heart Throb goodies!


[UPDATE: THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ENTER. THANKS!]

Continuing my fun-filled week of Valentine's Day Giveaways, you know I had to bring you some sweet-smelling goodies to celebrate this special day! And can you really think of a better fit for Valentine's Day than the sweet scents from DanaClassics?

I am tickled pink to present to you the following giveaway, sponsored by DanaClassics!

THREE lucky winners will each receive the following yummy treats:


Love's Loveable Bear Sugar Kiss (retail: $5.99, 0.14 oz)

How adorable is this?? You not only get a 0.14 oz spray bottle of the yummy Love's Sugar Kiss (if you've read my previous reviews, you know I think this is a softer, cleaner version of Aquolina Pink Sugar--and at a fraction of the cost!), but you also get a cute and cuddly pink Love's Loveable Bear to boot. This one sends me into cute-overload!


Love's Heart Throb Body Mist (retail: $11.50, 1.5 oz)

The PERFECT fragrance for Valentine's Day, Love's Heart Throb is a delicious combination of wild berries and exotic chocolates. Honestly, I loooove this fragrance so much and I truly cannot think of a more appropriate scent to wear on the one holiday that inspires everyone to eat chocolate-covered strawberries!

Once again, three (3) lucky winners will each receive the two (2) products featured above. The approximate retail value of each prize package is $17.50.

3) This contest is open to residents of the US, ages 18 and over. Void where prohibited.

4) You are not required to become a follower of Nouveau Cheap to enter, although it would be fantastic if you thought my blog was worthy of following. :)

5) This giveaway begins today, January 27th, and will end Monday, February 1st, 2010 at 11:59PM Pacific.
