title pic Welcome to My Pageant Swag!

Posted by My Pageant Swag on June 21, 2009

Update 1/23/10 We are going to be making a couple of changes and updating the way we receive swag bag requests. The way we’ve been doing it has caused unforeseen financial difficulties for my family and needs to be changed. Stay tuned, as the changes are coming shortly!

We have a few ways for you to keep updated.  You can subscribe to our RSS feed which will keep you updated as we add new posts.  You can also subscribe to our newsletter.

Companies that participate in our bags on a regular basis will now be listed in the sponsors links.  Everyone will be listed under their specific event(s) that they participate in.  Please give me some time to get this updated.  We do request photos from all events, but I cannot make any guarantees that we will actually receive them.

Please be sure to look through all of the posts, or go to the Events category so that you can be sure to see all of the events that we are currently accepting products for.

Posted by My Pageant Swag on July 8, 2009

Are you looking for a concealer that does more than just conceal?  Well, look no further!  Bye Bye Undereye by It Cosmetics is designed to moisturize the area around your eyes while concealing those dark circles.  I was able to give it a try, and it does a great job at hiding those hard-to-hide dark undereye circles.  It’s also waterproof, so you don’t have to worry about it smudging or sweating off.  It did such a great job, that even my husband noticed the difference!  It’s probably the best concealer I’ve tried, and it doesn’t leave those white circles under your eyes in photos!

Here is some information about Bye Bye Undereye from the It Cosmetics website:

Working hand in hand with the leading plastic surgeons in Brazil, It Cosmetics introduces Bye Bye Under Eye, a full coverage, highly pigmented concealer utilizing truly innovative technology and ingredients – giving women the power to finally say “bye bye” to those stubborn under-eye issues!

Bye Bye Under Eye offers a waterproof, yet moisturizing formula that will stay put no matter what.? The truly innovative formula contains high concentrations of Vitamins K, A, C, E and Collagen - clinically proven to reduce under eye puffiness and discoloration while strengthening the delicate skin of the under eye area.

Posted by My Pageant Swag on July 4, 2009

We’ve all heard about mineral makeup, but what many don’t realize is that there are many different kinds of mineral makeup and therefore very different levels of quality.  When I hear mineral makeup, I think of the loose powder makeups that first came out.  You can actually get pressed mineral makeup now!

I had the opportunity to get a makeover by Rain Cosmetics in April during the True Beauty Expo and was so impressed that I’ve since bought the foundation!  They use fun Vegas names for most of their makeup, as they are based out of Las Vegas.

I bought their Perfect Cream Foundation, which is as close to perfection as I’ve seen!!  It’s healthy for your skin, and gives you as much or little coverage as you want based on how you apply it.  You can use a brush for full coverage, a wedge sponge for medium coverage and a moist sponge for light coverage.

Using the proper concealer and foundation will make a huge difference when you are in photos.  I LOVE the airbrush look that I get from the foundation as much as knowing that it is great for my skin!  It’s water resistant too, which is great for summer time and it lasts all day!  When they did my makeup in April it lasted all day AND night through many events.  Who could ask for anything better from their makeup?

Posted by My Pageant Swag on June 28, 2009

Are you looking for a night cream that actually does what it says that it will?  Then look no further!!  April Rain’s Night Rainew is extra rich, as a night cream should be, without leaving your skin oily.  It works wonders on those fine lines and wrinkles that we all get, no matter how young or old we are.  I would strongly recommend this product to anyone looking for an amazing night cream.

You can learn more about Night Rainew by visiting April Rain Skin Science.
