I’m sure many of us in the States are getting ready for a few days of thanks aka pigging out on turkey, stuffing, sweet potaters and more. My Chinese mom usually substitutes tasty duck for turkey, but I found out she has ambitiously purchased a big bird this y to attempt a traditional Thanksgiving. Darn! I like my Asian duck.
Anyways, I wanted to do a giveaway this week as a tiny way to show my gratitude to all of you for reading and supporting this blog. When I started blogging a little over a year ago, inspired by Alterations Needed, never did I imagine the petite online community would blossom to where it is now (there were ~3 of us back then!). And I sure did not think I would end up making so many friends who share honest opinions, sweet comments, and useful recommendations. So thank you all very much.
Over this year I’ve been collecting duplicates of some things that I’ve tried & liked, to share with a lucky reader. I’m not affiliated with any of the below brands; everything was purchased by me. The prize package includes:
1. Rock & Republic pressed blush in Tease (a mauve-pink; my absolutely fave shade)
2. Shu Uemura eylash curler
3. J.Crew “olive moss” leather skinny belt in your choice of S or M (and I can punch extra holes for you)
4. J.Crew flower hair elastic (I have this in black and made it into a pin)
5. Revlon polish in “Vixen” (love, love this color) and 6. Revlon “No Chip” topcoat
7. N.Y.C. liquid eye liner in black and 8. a pair of ELF falsies
Rules:
– Open internationally to public followers of ExtraPetite.com
– Ends midnight EST on December 12, 2010 and a winner will be drawn at random
– Winner will have 72 hours to claim her prize after announcement

Hi, my favorite makeup item is Maybelline's Define-A-Brow Eyebrow Pencil in Dark Blonde. It's the only one that really blends in with my brow color and doesn't look fake!
Thanks so much for the giveaway!

Hello EXTRA PETITE!!! I'm brand new to the blogging world and only joined because of your site!! It gives me so much inspiration as to things I can change that would work with my small frame. If only you can make scrubs look more appealing on a 4 11 frame, you would ultimately change my perception that I don't have to be frumpy just because I'm small!
Well, back to you question! My favorite beauty product is the emjoi emagine! Its a epilator that leaves your skin feeling ultra smooth and save so much time than my usual wax appointments.
Hi, thanks for the great giveaway.
One of my favorite things is my iphone.

Hi! I'm a follower via Google Reader as well as an Asian girl with the same issues and body type as you, so I'm grateful for all the tips and reviews you've amassed on your blog. Admirable! Petite women everywhere should be paying attention (myself included).
I would love to be included in the giveaway; one of my favourite products is Too Faced's Shadow Insurace, without which even my eyeliner would migrate all over my eyelids. Alas, my skin.
Thanks again for the wonderfully helpful blog, and Happy Thanksgiving!

Great giveaway. My favorite item right now is my ultra facial cream from Kiehls!
I love my watch. My bf got me it when we first met b/c he lost my old one. Its been over 5 years and I still wear it everyday
I found your blog while trying to find good suits to wear to med school interviews without drowning in fabric. Your reviews were so helpful!
For the contest: my favorite thing to wear isn't really a single item, but I love my collection of ballet flats for my small feet ranging from children's size 3 to women's size 6.

My favorite thing is the Clinique 3 Step for acne. It is the only thing that has worked consistently for me and I am so happy that I found it!
Just recently discovered this blog community with petite girls sharing makeup and clothing tips..love it! Especially being one of the very few short Asians in Scandinavia and being constantly being surrounded by super tall people, reading these kinds of blogs really make me feel less alone in the world:)
Anyway, my favorite thing: Clinique City Block Sheer spf25 ..very lightweighted and it doesn't make me break out or anything and I need it to keep those dark spots from not appearing after being exposed in the sun. Love the sun when it first appears here in Norway though, and wish I could tan my face as well, but dislike getting dark spots at such an early age.
Thanks again for a lovely blog 🙂

One of my favorite things is my pair of pink gloves…a must-have for cold and snowy days!
What a great idea and fun post! It reminds me of Oprah's holiday giveaway!!
One of of my favorite beauty products is Urban Decay's Naked Palette. It comes with 12 different shades of brown. I searched everywhere for this product but it was sold out everywhere. Then lo and behold I found it on Macys.com. I can create a sophisticated look for work or glam it up for a night out.
my favorite thing is my clinique day cream! my face is as smooth as a baby's buttcheek after using it =)
Hey! My favorite product right now is the LORAC Box Office Sensation train case. It's amazing! There are so many high quality and richly pigmented shadows, glosses, blushes, and a bronzer. I feel like I rule the makeup world.
i love my sweats!!
I love my Caudalie moisturizer. Can't live without it!!
My favorite item: Lancome Artliner liquid eyeliner. (btw i posted the form my name as danielle.mah)
MAC fluidline! Best eyeliner ever! I just started using it in September or October.
Check out my blog(I'm petite too!):
Blog name: Fashion for Teens
My favorite makeup cleanser is Philosophy's purity. It doesn't strip my skin and I love that it melts away my Bobbi Brown gel eyeliner with ease.
Happy Thanksgiving, extrapetite! I love the concept of your blog. I'm not even petite by your standards but I'm asian and I always enjoy seeing the colorful outfits you put together for work. They're good inspirations!
wow what an awesome giveaway! I have the RR blush in Kinky and Call Me which I LOVE!!! i heard that the Shu Uemura eylash curler is amazing though and would love to try 😀
have a wonderful thanksgiving girl!
I love primer sandwiched in between foundation and moisturizer. Also love Estee Lauder Signature lipsticks…..last along time before needing to reapply but are creamy and smooth on.
awesome giveaway!
Bonnie
What an awesome giveaway! Thank you for hosting it!
My favorite product of the moment are NYX eye shadows. I don't buy anything else!
xoxo
I love L'oreal Voluminous Carbon Black mascara. It's way more affordable than Dior Show and works much better for me, and the Carbon Black color is dark but doesn't look out of place even with my fair-skinned redhead complexion.
I'm also going to add this for Boston-metro petites like me and Jean: I love the TJ Maxx on Needham St. in Newton. It has a great designer and petite selection, and is one of the few TJ Maxx that has more than 4 pairs of shoes under size 7. 🙂
My favourite item is my Shiseido's lower end lash curler! Holds my curl for the entire day AND it's really affordable! Got it from Hong Kong.
I'm loving the holiday palettes from Wet n Wild, good bang for your bucks
I love my burts bees lip balm! Saves my lips in the dry hospital air where I work every day
Hi (first time commenter)- I love Clinique quickliner for eyes.
@Jacqueline I also use Garnier 2-in-1 Anti-Dark Circle Eye Roller when I don't feel like grabbing concealer and powder!
Jean, thanks for such a generous giveaway. My favorite thing is my Palm (now HP) Pre because it's a multitasking utility for all my phone, calendar, text messaging, email, gchat, facebook, and twitter needs!
Wow this is incredible! Thank you for making this giveaway for us. You're so kind.
Anyways my favorite item is my laptop. This is my only option to enjoy myself and not get bored. I'm only here in the house with my husband, we both don't have any work so having a computer with us is an outlet to make ourselves busy. I think this is my number one gadget I can't live without=)
Favorite beauty product is the L'Oreal beauty tubes mascara. Love how it doesn't smudge and washes off so easily!
