About two weeks ago after doing a review, up pops the Congratulations! You're a winner $50 Sephora gift certificate and you will be contacted shortly.
I was never contacted. It didn't go in spam, all mail is deliverable and I never heard..
Is it taking anyone else this long or did you hear right away?


I certainly hope you got the item that you won. I haven't.

I won 2 $100.00 Sephora gift cards. Here it is, several months later....I won in May/April and its now October.....hmmmm. I wish I would have a job that allowed me such latitude. Oh...no emails either. I am considering getting with my counselors due to breach of contract....time will tell. I have read elsewhere that these people (total beauty) are actually contacting winner up to 6 months after their wins. Good luck!

I just wanted to post that I received a prize from the Totally Green sweep. I won the $500.00 Brilliant Earth Diamonds gift card. I received, instead, a diamond necklace. I contacted you twice and was assured a return phone call regarding the substitution. This has been over 2 weeks ago. I've heard nothing.

I love this site and have won more than once. However, I would have preferred to choose my gift. My daughter is getting married and I wanted to use it for that purpose.

Please, don't get me wrong I love the diamond necklace. It's just not what was posted as the prize. I would appreciate a response or even an explanation.

I will continue to patronize your site, because there are some great reviews and products.

I won a $100 gift certificate to RAW Natural Beauty in the Totally Green Sweepstakes. I received a box of products from the company instead. The letter enclosed said it was supposed to come with Active Veil SPF 18, but that was not enclosed.

Hi, TB - I was just wondering if you've finalized the Summer Spa Sweepstakes winners list yet - or if you've gotten to those prizes yet - ? That's one I'm waiting for.

Rasputina, I just got an email from ePrize this week stating that they're still contacting winners (they contact a maximum of 3 winners for each prize and each winner gets a certain number of days to respond) but we should have a winners list by the end of this month.

I won a $100 Estee Lauder gift card back in August in the Beauty in the City Sweepstakes. After not receving any type of correspondence from eprize, I sent an email to them on October 30 and received a reply saying they sent me a win email on October 16 saying I must update my address within ten days or I would forfeit my prize. Well, I never received that email and I carefully check every email I receive, especially if it is from eprize. I replied to eprize with that information and asked them to send me a copy of the email they claimed to have sent me, but they will not respond. So how about it Total Beauty? What can I do to receive the prize I won? Considering the problems eprize has had with other contests (awarding the wrong prizes to winners and extreme delays in delivering prizes when promised) it is entirely possible and probable that I never received the email from eprize.

I received an email dated 8/19/08 stating that I won $100 gift card in the Summer Spa Sweepstakes. I actually received the winning congratulations screen on 7/28/08. My email stated:

"You will be receiving your prize in the mail 8-10 weeks after winner confirmation. It will be mailed to the address you provided on the registration form. The promotion ends on August 04, 2008.

Your win has been automatically approved. No further verification is required to claim your prize"

I then received another email dated 10/9/08 in regards to the same Summer Spa Sweepstakes that said:

"Simply respond to this email with your full first and last name (not your user name) so we can fully verify your win. Then, you will receive your prize within 6-8 weeks. Please respond within seven (7) calendar days or risk being disqualified under Florida law"

I sent the requested information on that same day, 10/9/08 and as of today 11/23/08 I still have not received my prize. I have emailed ePrize three times and have yet received any type of response from them.

It is now going on 16 weeks since this promotion ended and people still do not have their prize. I find this completely ridiculous. I am very grateful for the win but honestly this is more than frustrating. Promotions are supposed to reflect positively on a company and this definitely does not!

I also received and email on 10/16/08 stating that I won a $100 EsteeLauder.com gift certificate in the Beauty in the City promotion. That sweepstakes ended almost 8 weeks ago and still nothing. At this point I am not going to hold my breath on getting this prize either.

I won a $100 gift certificate from Suki in the Total Beauty, Total Green contest back in May 2008. I sent back the address confirmation and even sent a follow up email concerning the matter, but have yet to hear from anyone. Any suggestions on what I need to do next?

When I first joined I won a prize as well. I see many others have had the same problem. I responded to the email,but no word as of yet. I am glad I joined TotalBeauty and love this site. I do not however like scams. I understand if there is a long wait just let us know before hand.
