Win a Sephora Gift Card for Valentine’s Day

Win this Sephora Valentine Gift

Having never been to Sephora, I planned to dash into the store for a quick preview before posting this Valentine Sephora Gift Card Giveaway

Instead, I found myself perusing the cosmetic aisles with my eyes all a twinkling. My 4th grade daughter looked just as mesmerized. She ogled neon eye shadows. I tested long-lasting lipsticks. Together, we caught a whiff of Amazing Grace and followed the delicious scent back to the fragrance section. 

I haven’t worn perfume since realizing my signature scent masked the new baby smell on this very girl now by my side. We decided that Mom, after nearly a decade, could smell like something other than peanut butter and Lady Speed Stick for a change. I like the smell of Amazing Grace. I love the quote on the packaging even more. So I bought a bottle for me and one to share. 

For Valentine’s Day, we’re giving away a $35 gift card to Sephora, a .5 oz. Amazing Grace spray fragrance, and a Sephora compact mirror (their gift card freebie), with one of Brooke’s most popular prints, “Love in red.”

    The best Valentine I’ve ever received was a lollipop from my grade school crush. Everyone got one, but it meant the most to me. :)

  2. I subscribed too. Wasnt sure if you wanted comments for that or not.

  3. The best Valentine I ever received was getting to hold my son for the first time. He was born very early and only weighed 1 lbs 7 oz. On Feb 14th 2006 I got to hold him for the first time. I will never forget that day!!!

    My fiance’s birthday is Valentine’s Day, so I would say he is my best Valentine’s present (is that totally cheesy?)

  9. Katie says:

    The best Valentine I ever received was…just my boyfriend being the amazing, funny, silly man of my dreams that he is and taking me out for an unplanned meal; of course everywhere was packed so we ate at the bar of some fancy restaurant and he talked the hostess into giving me a red rose she was handing out to reservations.

    I subscribed too :)

  10. Sarah Mac says:

    The best valentine I ever received was my boyfriend at the time putting red roses all over my room in the sorority house during college after I came home from a weekend trip.

  11. Madeline says:

    The best Valentine I ever received: all of the Valentines that my mom has given me. Every year, from elementary school to now that I’m in college, she makes me a Valentine’s day card and puts my favorite candy with it. It’s a simple gesture, but it means a lot to me because for me it’s a tangible reminder of how much she cares about and loves me.

    Thanks for the giveaway!

    The best Valentine I ever received was the one from my 5th grade love before he moved away, never to be seen again. It was a Jurassic Park card.

  19. Sarah H says:

    The best Valentine I ever received was a home cooked meal and heart shaped cake from my hubby. It wasn’t the first time he had made dinner but it was some fancy recipe he found. Also, he planned for the night when I’d be coming home from my first grade class’ Valentine’s Party. A girl needs something special after a crazy party day with 1st graders!

  20. Kelly says:

    Every year my stepmom would make heart shaped sugar cookies w/ red hots. Last year I got to do that for my family. It’s not just a single year – just a single tradition.

  21. Caitlin says:

    My husband and I aren’t particularly romantic and are totally comfortable with that. But last year, when our daughter was 14 months old, my husband taught her to give kisses when we said “happy valentine’s day.” It was the cutest!!

  22. tirzah says:

    The best Valentine I ever received…was a surprise manicure/pedicure from my husband….and a sweet handmade card.

  27. Erin says:

    The best Valentine gift I ever received was a photo of my family in one of those cheesy Valentine’s bears. I had moved away (3 states away!) and was very homesick. When I received that gift, I immediately felt better and was very grateful; it completely made my day. :)

    The best Valentine I ever received…well, the most memorable, I can’t say I have a lot of AMAZING V day memories…we went to the Melting Pot fondue restaurant and had a great dinner. Only problem was it was so much food that even eating half of it left us too full to even feel like cuddling!

  30. Karen says:

    The best Valentine I ever received was a frosty from Wendys. Seriously, I was sick, I felt awful and couldn’t leave the house. I wanted nothing more than a frosty but I couldn’t move and my husband ended up bringing it for me. Simple but sweet.

    The best valentine I have ever received is a giant balloon with a teddy bear and candy inside, from my husband (boyfriend at the time). We had seen them in Walmart around Valentines day and I made the comment that I had always wanted one in elementary school but never received one and was always crushed. He surprised me that year by giving me just the one I wanted. So sweet and thoughtful!
