Are we beauty obsessed? Well, when was the last time you picked up a lipstick? Last week? Exactly. The next best thing to shoe shopping is…beauty shopping! With jewel tones all the rage this fall, join us as we chat with national artist, Lijha, who’ll be graciously joining us for an exclusive beauty chat via Facebook.

Skip the department store counter chit chat and get the real scoop on how to wear burgundy lips and emerald green eyes from a savvy pro. You’ve seen the fall looks on the runway, and we know you wanna ask what we actually will – seriously, can we wear colors like that in real life? Lijha says yes! Easy to master with the help of a few tips and tricks from an insider. Ask her anything you ever wanted to ask a beauty expert without the shame of sharing you need help, and you just might win a bag of covetable beauty goods from MakeUp Forever. We’re testing the Aqua Rouge colors (#5 and #14 are such fabulous basics) and swear by the holy gods of lipsticks, this thing will not budge. Ever. And, the girls at Dazzle Headquarters take their lips seriously.

Everyone’s seen The Devil Wears Prada, obviously. Our favorite part? That scene in which Andrea experiences the pristine wonder and immaculate beauty of the fashion closet. It’s a cinematic sequence that gives us chills, because, look, we’re not afraid to admit we go gaga over a well-organized closet. Which is why your closet pics for the ShoeDazzle Dream Closet Contest are giving us major moments of envy!

We asked, and you delivered. And we’re talking in droves! Color coded, stacked like jenga pieces, towering, overflowing– so many unique and inspiring closets to ogle. Don’t get us wrong, we never underestimated our Dazzlers, but we couldn’t have anticipated that so many of you were secretly dressing yourselves in such ultra-amazing closets everyday!

To put it lightly, we are a little jealous, and if you haven’t already submitted your closet pic, do it now as we climb towards the celebration of reaching 2 million facebook fans, where two lucky winners will receive $1,000 to spend at The Container Store plus $1000 to spend on Shoedazzle.com! And that’s not all, ladies. In addition, 22 of you will walk away the proud new owners of a $200 ShoeDazzle gift card, to fill your closets with your very own version of pure delight.
