"Twilight Saga"-inspired Lookalike Contest Launches New Cosmetic Line

Oct. 26, 2009 - PRLog -- Rachael Ward, president and CEO of Mixology pure mineral make-up, announced today on the L.A. Successful Women Entrepreneurs Examiner.com web page that she is launching a look-alike contest in conjunction with establishing her new cosmetics line called Twiology, make-up inspired by the “Twilight Saga” books and movies.  

“I am looking for individuals out there who love the books and movies and think they resemble one of the key characters,” Ward says.  There will be 1 finalist chosen from each of the 7 categories and from those finalists, 1 grand prize winner will be picked. Category winners will become the new faces of Twiology Makeup for up to, but not limited to, 1 year.

A portion of the contest proceeds will go to Blood: Water Mission.com, a non-profit organization that addresses the AIDS/HIV crisis in Africa.

The contest rules are as follows:

To Enter go to www.MixologyMakeup.etsy.com and order your Official Twiology Character Sample Kit for $2 in our TwiContest Section (we need you wearing our Twiology makeup to make it official). Once you receive the kit, apply your new Twiology Makeup by Mixology to create your character’s look.  Your job is to use our makeup to create your character, but you may use your own lip color and mascara.  Pictures must be high resolution 300 dpi minimum, you may submit up to 3 photos of your look, one MUST be a headshot. You don’t need to hire a professional photographer, but we do need usable pictures so think about setting, lighting, etc.  With each photo or look please turn in a description of how you applied our makeup. You may enter more than one character category, but you may only win in one, we need different people for each look.
