I must admit, I’m having a pretty good week. I got my iPhone, it’s my Mom’s birthday today, I’m hanging out with the lovely Ali on Sunday, J and I got new knives which may or may not be able to SLICE A PINEAPPLE IN MIDAIR (more on those soon) and Lo has been—well, I don’t want to say it, lest I jinx myself, but it has to do with the opposite of waking repeatedly in the night. (Haha, fate! I outsmarted your wily ass! Tempt THIS!)
Oh, and there’s another good thing, too—Starting very soon, I’m going to be one of the contributing editors over at BlogHer’s BeautyHacks, reviewing all manner of beauty products and writing about them. PINCH ME.
Because I’m so very excited about this, because it’s the weekend, because I haven’t done a contest in a while, and because I may have gone overboard stocking up on one of my favorite lip glosses when it recently went on sale (Alba TerraGloss in Garnet, which I mentioned a while back in this post), I decided that it was time for…a little contest. I will select a winner to receive a tube of this sheer, neutral/reddish (and universally flattering!) color.
As for the rules? IT COULD NOT BE EASIER:
By 9 pm E.S.T. on Monday (8/4)
That's it. (I have no reason for this question, other than the fact that J and I–both lefties—realized that T is officially a righty, so handedness intrigues me of late.) The winner will be chosen at random.
See? Simple. Like taking candy from a baby. Or lip gloss. Whatever.
Good luck!

Ooh! I am a RIGHTY.
I'm a righty, too. I wonder what the breakdown will turn out to be?
Another righty here
Righty....
Righty. And feeling late to the party!
Also: in love with your baby. Gah, woman, you are KILLING my ovaries right now. Sheesh.
Righty, though I wear my watch on my right hand in the manner of a left-handed person. Dunno why, it just feels better that way.
Righty and OMHELL that PHOTO IS KILLING ME.
That picture is awesome, and also: I'm right-handed. Though I eat with my left usually. I'm not sure why, exactly.
Either. Both.
I use my right hand more because it smudges less when you write with your right hand than with your left. And because scissors are not made for left handed people.
Righty!
Lefty! I do most things with my right hand but for writing, I'm all about the left!
I am a lefty, my DH is a righty..we have two daughters - the daughter that acts like me is also a lefty, and the daughter that acts most like him is a righty!!
I'm a righty. So is my husband. But both of our mothers are lefties.
I'm a righty raised by lefties, married to a leftie!
Ooh! Lip gloss!
Righty!
Also - damn, that is one cute baby!
Ooh she is so cute!
I am a righty too.
I'm a righty. I do favor my left hand for some things, though I can't actually think of an example right now.
It's interesting that T's a righty, but then again, he could still surprise you. I watch a 3-yr old boy, and we were all pretty sure he was a righty, but lately he's been favoring the left quite a bit. It could just be an attempt to be cool like his left-handed cousin/best friend, but I guess time will tell.
I'm a reluctant righty. (I tried to train myself to be a lefty several years ago. Fail.)
Righty.
Thanks for the heads up on the NARS shade. I bought both colors and love them.
Lefty!
This here girlie is a RIGHTY.
Righty! (But my husband is a lefty, so I wonder what our unborn baby will be ... )
Excuse me while I try not to die from the Cuteness of that picture, OH MY WORD is she cute. Those cheeks!!!
Oh, and I'm a righty :)
I'm a righty, but I'll confess that after your gloss post, I ran right out and bought a tube of the TerraGloss in Garnet. (You're right. It's fabulous, and my colouring is about as opposite from yours as it can get: pale, redhead).
righty!
(and damn cute picture, too!)
righty :)
I'm a righty!
Congrats on your new gig! I'm a righty, but hold my pencil like a lefty so I always end up with pencil and ink smears all over my hand and paper. Weird.
Righty. You'll have to post the results.
I'm a righty. Unless I'm batting or playing putt-putt golf or dealing cards. Strange, I know.
That picture absolutely could not be any cuter.
Righty.
Though one time in college I became obsessed with becoming ambidextrous. I had a boring class and during that hour I would write only with my left hand. All I got was headaches.
I'm totally a lefty. As is my husband. Only I don't write with a crooked hand like he does. And I also use the mouse like a right handed person. And if I were to use a bat or a golf club it would be right handed. But if I'm bowling or shooting pool I'm totally a lefty. Funny huh? No? Ok well fine then just gimme the gloss!
I am a total righty!
That picture is TOO adorable! And I'm a righty :)
Righty! Always have = always will.

I am a righty, and what an adorable baby girl you have! You are one lucky momma... I can't wait to have a girl someday.
I'm a righty.
Your mom and my mom have the same birthday!
Lefty.
Your daughter is adorable and perfect, but is she ever awake?! :) I have only seen one piece of photographic evidence of her perfect, wee eyeballs!
righty. Although my whole family is left handed. Mom, Dad, Grandparents, and Brother. I am the family freak.
Totally a righty :)
Righty.
righty. and i've always wished i was a lefty. right seems so boring.
I'm a lefty. My husband is a righty. I hope my son is a lefty like me!!
righty - unaware of ANY lefties on either side of our family - hadn't realized that until now :)
Congrats on the new gig! And I'm a righty. Like Lunch Buckets, I can't think of any lefties in my family or in my OH's. Hmm....
I'm a righty, daughter of a lefty. I do a lot of things with my left hand though, and I wear my watch like a lefty as well.
Righty (though I have Lefty envy).
I'm a righty!
Mostly righty. I write right and do most household things righty... but I bat and throw lefty... who knows how those genes got scrambled :)
Congrats to you, you little lip gloss 'ho!
righty!
I'm a righty. My husband is a righty. Our daughter seems to be rather ambidextrous.
Righty!
Lefty! Holla! I'm doing a creative "Holla!" b/c you know, we lefties are like that :o)
She's precious!!
Congrats on the new gig - can't wait to read the reviews!
Righty here.
I'm a lefty! We rule!
I'm a lefty. When I was little and learning to write I would use both hands, usually switching in the middle of the page so that it looked like some schizophrenic child went to town.
Righty. Righty righty righty. I am so righty, my left hand is a completely useless appendage.
Righty. Mom's a lefty but all four kids are righty's.
Righty!
I'm a righty. I have a righty, lefty and one yet to be determined.
Would like to win so I can be a lip gloss ho
Righty-tighty!
Congrats on the BeautyHacks gig! You'll do fab, I'm sure. As for myself, I'm a righty in a family FULL of leftys. How that happened, we'll never know. Unless I'm secretly adopted.
I'm a righty, daughter of a righty and a man who was probably a lefty but forced into rightyhood in school.
That photo is just too adorable.
I'm a righty.
righty
Righty.
She is way too cute.
I am a righty. And your baby is sooo cute!
I'm a righty, too. But no fair putting that lip gloss in that sweet baby's hand; I was so distracted, I hardly noticed the gloss.
Righty. Except when it comes to brushing my teeth. Weird, I know.
another righty, here. :)
righty!
Lefty!
easy!!
(She's so adorable! Lip gloss ho, already? Too stinkin' cute! :) )
Righty.
That picture sucked me in - it has it all - fresh from the oven baby and lip gloss.
My left arm is there to just even me out I am a righty. I can't do a thing with my left hand.
another righty
Sweeeeet. I can't find the stuff anywhere in town, and have been wrestling with ordering an eco-brand gloss online and having it shipped. Pffft.
Anyway, righty. Yay, lip gloss!
--Shana in MO
I'm a righty!
I'm a righty - my brother a lefty and my almost 3 year old uses both his left and right hands very well... wonder when he will choose? Love your blog but I don't have one myself

righty.
that picture kills me. she's waaaay too cute!
Seriously? Cutest photo ever. She almost looks like she should be soaring through the air with the lipgloss like a little baby superhero or something. Or maybe I'm just weird.
Anyhow, represent for the lefties! I am one. Heck, yes.
I'm a righty. Lo is so cute...I love your Amy Winehouse "look"!
yet another righty!
Lefties rule.
I'm a righty!
Righty, but I am also a goofy foot, which is more often a lefty trait. I spin "reverse," too (counterclockwise as opposed to clockwise). Hard to find a skating partner.
I'm a lefty. My grandma still buys me left-handed scissors on occasion (and they are awesome!)
Oh your daughter is so cute!
But on to the contest: I am a righty.
(but for interested parties, my parents are both righties, my sister and I both righties, and my brother a lefty)
OK. So I am curently a righty who started as a lefty. I know, it doesn't make much sense, but it has to do with being born in a communist country and having to conform.
hehe, lip glosses of the world unite is what i get from that photo.
righty here!
I'm a righty who gave birth to one lefty and one righty.
I am a righty. My Mom was a lefty though. I only write with my right hand. Everything else (iron, comb my hair, etc.) I do with my left hand.
Definitely a righty.
Righty. And she is just adorable!
Righty. But, I've already got about 14 tubes of this same EXACT gloss (as you well know by now), I don't need to be in the contest.
i write, eat, and brush my teeth left-handed. i do everything else with my right hand.
Hi Metalia, can I enter the contest if I am overseas? Just in case, I am a righty.
Writing & reviewing products for BeautyHacks? SWEET DEAL!!!
I'm a righty. :)
oh my hat that picture is too cute!
I'm a righty. Although, my mother was a lefty and my grandmother was ambidexterous.
Righty!
Righty here!
Righty tighty Lefty loosy...
Not sure why that kept going through my head after your question, after all, this has nothing to do with screws, maybe some nuts?
Oh, I'm tighty! :)
Ooh. I keep meaning to pick up that TerraTints shade... Pick me! I'm a righty.
Also, congrats on all the good stuff all around!
Lefty here!
:) Becky
I'm a righty...married a righty...birthed two righties...(is that the proper pluralization of the word?)
Righty! And I love me some lipgloss!
I am a righty. Though there was a brief period when I used my left because my right wrist broke in a tragic accident where I fell on my ass.
Righty here. Love the pic of Lo the Terra Gloss Spokes-Model. She is beautiful. Grats on the new gig!
Righty! Both parents are righties, and my brother is the rogue lefty.
Gloss me!
I'm a righty!
Lefty here. (As all the best people are. Hee.)
Righty!
RIGHTY!!!
I'm a righty!
Righty.
Delurking to say your daughter is the CUTEST! And I am a righty. :)
Righty, righty, righty. I'm even a righty with my feet...weird, but true.
all righty!
Lefty (no hook when I'm writing even)- both parents and all siblings are right handed though.
Lefties are special
Not only am I a righty, but my left hand is remarkably useless in most activities.
Righty!
I am a righty, but hubs is a lefty. Wonder what future spawns will be?
I'm a righty. My husband is also a righty and we have one right-handed child and one lefty.
Another righty here - I wish I was ambidexterous, just so I can tell people "I'm ambidexterous!" I've tried to teach myself... It didn't work.
Right is right!!!
Righty from a family of righties. (Rightys?)
Righty!
lefty!
Righty, although I deal cards with my left.
righty.
love the pic of the wee one with the prize!!
Righty, but i have ALWAYS wanted to be a lefty - I even discussed with my friends in college a "plan" to make myself a lefty . . . it never worked ;)
Ps. - LOVE the pick of Lo, start the love of the gloss early!!
this left-handed creative minded momma would love to win!
I'm a righty! Always late the party.
Up until this freak accident when I was six, I was a lefty. Now I'm a righty.
Righty! Just under the wire.
Righty tighty. :)
Righty here!
Righty who loves your blog and could totally use some new lipglss for the delivery room...in, oh, 30 days!
Okay. I'm super late, but just FYI because I know you're dying to know this---I am both righty and lefty. A lovely little addition to my freak-of-nature status.
I can't believe how much your little one is starting to look like you! So so pretty.
