Valentine’s Day Present For You: Theorie Saga Touch Flat Iron

Today's giveaway in celebration of the upcoming holiday: a majorly fancy flat-iron from Theorie's SAGA Touch Collection (retail value $125).

The lightweight iron has 100% titanium plates and all sorts of glamorous-sounding tech-y features (ionized technology to promote silkier and smoother hair, far-infrared technology to deliver consistent heat distribution while reducing static, etc.)...but what you need to know is that it's a really, really great styling tool, and should last you more or less forever (it comes with a lifetime warranty). It's also specially designed for use with Keratin-treated hair and comes in a gorgeous embossed etched metal box, which is a nice little bonus.

Share Your Style / Daily Candy + Dove Pinterest Contest

This is me (and Kendrick) in the Hamptons, the one time that I managed to make it there in my 31 years (and simultaneously managed to break the beautiful house that we were staying in, which is what's happening above). It's extremely fun and glamorous and all those things that you've heard it is.

And! I'm going back. I am so excited; extra excited because there's a chance that I might get to see a few of you while I'm there.

Dove and DailyCandy are partnering up to give you the chance to inspire women with your own hairstyle and to win fabulous prizes, including a spot in a DailyCandy flipbook and trip for you and a friend to Super Saturday in the Hamptons.

Cisco ūmi Mother’s Day Giveaway

Last week, in my run-down of fabulous Mother's Day gifts, I mentioned the Cisco ūmi, a system that allows you to video chat with your family and friends via your HD television. Basically, it turns your TV into an enormous video phone, and lets you feel like your loved ones are sitting right there with you - you can chat in real time while seeing every tiny detail and facial expression. It just sounds incredible - we video-chat with Kendrick's family, but there are delays and weird angles involved, and everyone has to crowd around tiny computer screens...which can be tough to do when young children and multiple family members are involved. The ūmi solves those issues, and also allows you to record video messages, pan around the room (and zoom in), and share your videos on Facebook and YouTube, and via email.

In celebration of Mother's Day, Cisco ūmi is giving away two sets and a year of free service (retail value: approximately $1,200) to one Ramshackle Glam reader. I am so, so excited about this giveaway - I can imagine how extraordinary it would be to share our baby's early months with faraway family members in such a personal, relaxed way, and can't wait to hear how the lucky winner likes the service.

To enter to win two Cisco ūmi sets plus a free year of service for both you and the recipient of the second set, just comment below telling me who you'd most look forward to chatting with.

Lots of love to all the moms out there -

Giveaway: Conair Infiniti Pro Hairdryer & You Style 2-In-1 Brush

Who couldn't use a new hairdryer and round brush? I've had mine for...oh...I don't know, since college anyway (we won't talk about how long ago that was), and it was definitely time for an upgrade. Enter: these new products, both of which Conair would like to give away to one RG reader.

Infiniti Pro Model 270 (Retail value: $40): It's the first AC motor (in a nutshell: powerful and quiet) with a fold-away handle for easy storage. It also includes neutralizing ions to reduce frizz and enhance shine, 2/heat-2/speed switches, and a travel tote.

You Style 2-In-1 Brush (Retail value: $9.99, available in stores now): I used this like crazy on my Caymans vacation (it saved me from having to bring both a round brush and a flat brush, whee). It's now my go-to brush for everyday: it doesn't snarl up my hair like products of this type usually do, and the mechanism that turns it from flat brush into round brush is simple and painless.

StriVectin-SD Sensitive Skin Giveaway

[CONTEST CLOSED]

Ever since I worked on the Wrinkle Report series for Better TV, I've been a Strivectin-SD convert (click here for my post and video on texture turn-around). And as I mentioned in my Best New Beauty Finds / Spring 2011 post, lately I'm all about the Sensitive Skin version ($79) - I can use it twice a day easily, with no fear of dryness (and I am a very dry girl). The entire line, in fact, is my go-to for anti-aging (the Instant Retexturizing Scrub is another favorite).

The product is geared towards women aged 25+ who are battling signs of aging and yet are prone to dryness, flare-ups, or other issues that can be exacerbated by traditional anti-aging products - it offers all the benefits of regular StriVectin minus the fear of irritation.

To win one full-sized tube of Strivectin-SD Sensitive Skin (retail value: $79), just comment below telling me what you're presently doing to combat aging.

Tiffany Chou Jewelry Giveaway

Speaking of lazy days in the sun...

How about we bring the summer straight to your door with some gorgeous beach-inspired jewelry from Tiffany Chou? The pieces, inspired by Tiffany's hometown of Maui, are everything I look for in summer jewelry: simple yet striking, and gorgeous paired with a swimsuit and a (faux) tan. (Dying over that crab claw bracelet pictured above...and you have to check out the matching ring. Love.)

Cor Silver Giveaway!

[CONTEST CLOSED]

Remember a few months back, when I raved about Cor Silver Soap? Here's a refresher, if you don't:

"OK, so this definitely falls into the Luxury Purchase category, but sometimes we all need a little luxury, no? The gift bag for the Ted Gibson Cocktails & Couture party that I attended the other night contained a sample of Cor Silver Soap, which contains something called “nano-silver”…and retails for a jaw-dropping $125 a bar. Lord.

A price tag like that would generally make me hesitant to crack open the packaging, but I was dying to know what soap this expensive would be like, so crack it open I did. I’ve been using Cor every day since…and it’s great. The theory behind the soap is that it’s one-step skincare: it cleans and moisturizes your skin, reduces the appearance of pores and fine lines, and enhances cellular repair (that would be the job of the nano-silver). Also, it contains sericin silk, which I’ve never heard of but apparently provides you with SPF 15 protection; very cool, considering that I forget to apply sunscreen 99% of the time (I know, bad).
