I’m most excited for the bobbie brown gloss. i find her prices just a tad too high to stomach though the stuff is great great great.

I love that Mia 2 set. I have a Clairsonic Plus, but it doesn’t have a case and is kind of big for travel. For anyone with a Clairsonic, the Deep Pore brush is awesome.

Would love to try that jack black industrial strength hand healer! With the job I have I stock a lot of freight daily and my hands get eaten alive handling all that cardboard.

Although I’m from the netherlands so I can’t join the giveaway ~ its such a nice thing that you do these giveaways, you’re absolutely spoiling the winners with such a grand prize! 🙂

I’m most excited about the MIA 2. I have every intention of buying it, but whenever I’m in Sephora and I plan on dropping $150 I usually end up spending it on makeup or a new skin cream

I think Kate Somerville’s Exfolikate is the best spa quality, medical grade-like, facial scrub on the market right now. After reading about it and purchasing it, it is a skincare item that I don’t want to do without. But, it is expensive!!! Just 1 oz. is 20 bucks! Since I’ve started to use it (and fell in love with it), I’ve tried to find sales, discounts, or promos…something…to continue using this. For what it’s worth, thank you at least for the dream of winning this, along with the other items which are easily beauty staples.

I am most excited about the Clarisonic since I’ve always wanted one but haven’t been willing to shed the cash. Thanks for the giveaway Christine.

The clarisonic Mia 2!it seems to be what’s missing from my beauty routine, but so pricey I’m always hesitant about pulling the trigger and buying it. Student on a budget problems.

I really can’t choose between the Clairsonic Mia 2 or the Kate Sommerville ExfoliKate. I’ve been debating about whether or not to get them for a long time now.

Tam Avatar

In my opinion, you had me at hello with the Kate Somerville Exfolikate. It has got to be the best spa quality, medical grade-like exfoliators on the market. The drawback is the price. 1 oz is 20 bucks! Since I’ve started using it, I’m always on the hunt for sales, promos, and any other deals to buy a large size. For what it’s worth, thank you for allowing me the dream of possibly owning this (lol).

I’m most excited about the Clarisonic Mia 2 and Kate Somerville ExfoliKate. I am in the process of evening my skin and working on minimizing my pores. And exfoliation is good for the skin too.

I’m most excited for the Jack Black Industrial Strength Hand Healer. My mom is always looking for good hand lotion, since her the skin on her hands is very dry. We’ve been thinking about getting this product for her.

Exfoliokate and esp. the Clarisonic! Always wanted to try one but never could make myself use money I could use on makeup… 🙂 Great givaway!

Aaaaaaaaaaaah it’s a tie between Clarisonic and Exfolikate, just don’t know if Clarisonic would be too rough! But OMG everything is amazing!!!

Veronica Avatar

All the picks are amazing, but I’m most excited for ExfoliKate. I’m a big skincare fan, and because my skin is finicky in terms of texture, I love exfoliating products.

Super excited for the Clarisonic Mia. I’ve been meaning to try it out for a while now, but just couldn’t justify the price tag for a skincare item!

So excited about your QVC picks! I would be most excited to try the Clairsonic Mia. Ive been dying to get one but just can’t justify the cost. Hope I can win one!

I have a clairisonic or I’d say the mia is the one i’m most excited for 9tho for travel that would still be super!) but I’m a lip gloss fiend so other than the mia, gotta go with the BB shimmer lipgloss 😀

Thank you so much for doing this giveaway! I am definitely most excited for Kate Sommerville ExfoliKate! I have heard nothing but good things about it

I am probably the most excited for the Clarisonic Mia 2, as my sister has been wanting one for ages! Since, I have talked about it so much she has decided she wants one as well. This would be the perfect opportunity for her to receive one, since they are quite a pretty pricey investment. Now, as for me I am most excited for the Jack Black Hand Healer. I recently received a sample from a Sephora order and fell in love. However, I could not bring myself to buy a $45 hand cream-even if it is amazing! This would be amazing prize package to win, since I am addicted to Temptalia as much as I am QVC. Either way, thanks for holding this giveaway and I hope the winner loves everything they receive.

Oooohhhh Clarisonic Mia 2 AND Kate Somerville ExfoliKate. I’ve wanted a Clarisonic since before they came out with the the Mia but it’s too expensive. I haven’t been this excited about a contest since your huge Make Up For Ever Contest…silly since the odds are really low, but it’s still exciting to have a shot at winning. Somebody is gonna be VERY lucky! I sure hope the winner appreciates your generosity. Thank you Christine!

The Kate Summerville Exfolikate. I love trying skin products, because I want something to fix my skin, and hopefully this will help. I would never buy it in real life, because I can’t afford it, so I would love this opportunity to try it!

Oh, the Clarisonic Mia! With the changes my skin has had in the last few months, I really think it could make a dramatic difference! And I don’t have the extra $ to shell out on one right now!

Wow I really don’t know. I’m equally excited for all of them, since I know you love them but I haven’t gotten around to purchasing any of these myself. Probably ExfoliKate though! I want to know what all the rage is about! I’ve never use an enzyme exfoliator.

For me, it’s got to be the shadow duo. All my shadows are either single colours or palettes, and it’s about time to get some duos- bringing a light/dark duo is a great way to have eyeshadow on vacation!

I would LOVE to try the Jack Black Industrial Strength Hand Healer. I added this to my QVC Wish List after seeing it in your all access recommendations. I think it was very forward thinking of QVC to include a section for blogger recommendations. I hope they expand on this in the future.

Thank you for going this wonderful giveaway for all your fans. We love you as much as you love us. Best of luck to everyone.

I love all the products and it took me an hour to decide which item I love most, the Kate Somerville Ex Folikate of the Mia 2. And the winner is……Ckarisonic Mia 2. But all the products are excellent choices, something every Beauty Junkie would absolutely covet.

Again, thank you for doing this amazing giveaway.

I absolutely LOVE JB lipbalm so obv I’m most excited about the Hand Healer. I’m a hairstylist and my hands are always wet so it’s hard to keep them moisturized. I’m currently using Aveda’s Hand Repair (which I love) but am always on the search for something new to try!

I think all of your Picks are sensational! For me I am all about having healthy hydrated glowing skin, especially my face, so my favorite of all your Picks is the Kate Somerville Ultimate Oil Free Duo. I think this is perfect for the warmer summer weather where you want the moisture but not the oil! I would love LOVE a chance to experience this duo and I know it would be just what my skin needs! Thanks so much for the amazing chance to enter.
