ALERT ALERT! Jurlique giveaway ahead!!

This giveaway has now closed. Click here to see if you were the winner!

I have been blogging for about 3 months now and I have to say that I love it more than I could have ever imagined. When I had to write scientific papers for work it was always such a chore. I would procrastinate, write one sentence then jump onto smh.com.au to read an article; write another sentence then 'quickly' check eBay for bargains; finish the paragraph then hit the Beauty Heaven forum to see if anyone desperately needed my opinion on something, anything...

Blogging is not like that. If I am not writing an article on my computer, then I am writing one in my head. I get to write about whatever I want and it is so liberating. If an article just isn't working, I move on (I currently have 47 partially written drafts saved! One day they will see the light of day and be published!).

So, to say thanks to all the lovely readers that I have had since the start who have encouraged me on my adventure, and to also attract some newbies to my blog as blogging has made me narcissistic and I want more readers I tell you, moooooore, I have decided to host a giveaway. I mentioned in a few posts how much I love Jurlique (if you missed them they are here, here and here), so the gorgeous people at Jurlique and Torstar Communications have teamed up to help me host an amazing giveaway. One winner will get:

Jurlique Lavender Hydrating Mist

Jurlique Lavender Shower Gel

Jurlique Lavender Hand Cream


Now I bet you are all busting to know how you can win this awesome prize. Since it is my first giveaway I am going to keep it nice and simple. All you have to do is:
  1. Follow me either by email or on Google Friend Connect (GFC)
  2. Tell me in the comments section below how you are following me (and what your GFC name is) and also tell me what your favourite Jurlique product is or which Jurlique product you would most like try.
Simple! I'd love it if you also followed me on bloglovin' or Tweeted about the giveaway...but only if you want to!

This comp is only open to Australian readers and will be drawn on Saturday 16th July (which is also my sisters birthday, how cool is that!!). So what are you waiting for...get entering!!

ps Some people have let me know that their comments haven't been showing up. I had a problem with Intense Debate, but I think that I have fixed it. Every comment gets emailed to me anyway, so I will have your entry, but if you are unsure drop me an email to let me know your comment isn't showing up. Don't forget to leave your email address when filling out the comment form (not in comment box otherwise it will be public) so I can notify you if you win.

My favorites actually that lavender mist! It smells so unbelievably wonderful. Heaven in the warmer months too.

I'm on GFC, following you as Suzanne :)
I'm following you via GFC and my name is Vintage Cherry. My mum put me onto the Jurlique mists years ago and they've long been my favourite Jurlique products.
I though your blog was men't to be about science. You will never be a beauty blogger.
Hi - saw you tweet this, what an awesome giveaway - well done on the blogging too!
Follow you on twitter + GFC, I like the rose hand cream but never tried the lavender version & very interested in trying out the hydrating mist as current one is about to run out!
I'm following via GFC and my name is tinypapercrane. I love Jurlique products, and in particularly that very lavendar hydrating mist! Their hand creams are also divine.
I'm following via GFC: lucinda_fraser27 I've never tried any Jurlique products but I would love to try the hand cream because I'm about to run out of my hand cream and love lavendar. :)

My fave Jurlique product will have to be the moisture replenishing mask, it is divine. I would love to try the lavender hand cream though, I have the rose one and love it to bits.

Hi there. I'm following you via email and I most would like to try Jurlique Lavender Hand Cream.
Hi Sarah, I follow you via email. The lavender hand cream is my favourite - it is sooo rich and gorgeous smelling.
I'm an avid follower via that GFC thing-ma-do. The name is MLE and i love jurlique's hand cream, i love the way it makes my hands feel.

By the way great blog, combining science and beauty. You were born to be a blogger!
I'm Frannybee, following with GFC. I've only tried a couple of Jurlique products (and I mean tried once, not bought a whole pack of something). One was an oat-based facial exfoliator...not a fan, wasn't gritty enough for me. Their lavender hand cream, on the other hand, was unbelievably wonderful and is one of the most amazing lavender scented products I've tried. I'd love to own a tube but have a couple of others to finish before buying this one.

Hey Sarah!
I was actually thinking hmm I wonder if the science of beauty is going to do a give away, how spooky is that! I've tried two Jurlique products (caludenda day cream + herbal recovery gel), and I liked the day cream best! I really want to try their eye makeup remover, eye cream! I also wanted to try their rosewater balancing mist but it's for oily/combination skin then I found out about the hydrating mist and would love to try that to!

I'm following you on GFC under 'beautybabe111' and I'm suscribed via email to!
Hi there, I follow you via GFC (Jessica McLeod) and I'm really enjoying your blog! I am very skeptical of beauty claims so it's great to read someone with a science background :)

I'd love to try the Jurlique Brightening Range, especially the Brightening Essence :)
Following on GFC Tracy Boulter, email and twitter JesseBelles, tweeted

Love Jurliques Lavender Shower Gel and would love to try the Jurlique Hand Cream as my hands are dry.
Hi lovely :) i'm following you via GFC (Cassie) I've actually never tried any of Jurliques products but am so keen to try the Lavender Hydrating Mist. I love evian's mist but have, oddly enough, never tried any others. also the reviews ive read on the hand cream sound delish :) my job is really hands orientated and they get so dry that sometimes they will crack, not pretty. haha
love your blog, keep up the good work Sarah xoxo
Hi, I'm following you via email subscription. My favourite Jurlique product is the Rose Hand Cream as it is extremely luxurious and makes my hands super soft. Would love to try the lavender range of products though. :-)

I'm following you via email :) Would love to try the Lavender Hydrating Mist, it sounds heavenly!
Email too. The Lavender Mist because the scent would be very calming just like the real thing!!
Oh awesome giveaway Sarah! I follow on GFC as Sarah Cook. I would love to try the Jurlique Moisture Replenishing Mask and I quite liked the Purifying Foaming Cleanser when I used it. I will also tweet about this giveaway!
Great giveaway! I'm following you on GFC as Megan. I'd really love to try this handcream - always looking for the perfect handcream!
Great giveaway! I follow on GFC as Sara-May. I have heard so many great things about Jurlique but have never tried them. I think any of the Hydrating mists would be wonderful to try though, because I get such dry tight skin.
