*Stay for the raffle where the Chicks will be giving away fabulous prizes by super generous donors, a la Smartypanties favorite brands!! Some of my faves in the giveaway bag include a Hide and Sleek cami by Spanx (best stuff ever!!) as well as Power Panties($30) and a Slim Cognito(retails for $72)! All donated by the generous girls at the brand’s hub down in Hot-lanta!

Also in the baggie: Biore products, Lauren Luke products, Benefit Cosmetics, and Curel’s new lotion: Itch Defense! Just in time for the winter!
