The L'Oreal Paris 2009 Golden Globes Compact Designed by Carelle provides the stars with an "antidote" to the exciting and often hectic energy surrounding the award season and festival circuit. The compact's stones were chosen based on their unique properties such as balance, strength and confidence -- the honorees that carry the compact are sure to have a secret weapon for success in their customized good luck charm.


The compact, entitled "Harmony," is a shimmering combination of lemon citrine and pale green quartz stones set in sterling silver plated in 18K yellow gold with diamond details in honor of the Golden Globes. The compact evokes a calming, balanced aura with yellow citrines that symbolize optimism, positive energy and enhanced creativity. The yellow is a perfect compliment to green as it represents harmony and "attracts success".


This stunning compact is not just for the stars -- one limited edition compact will be listed for sale with eBay Giving Works, a special part of the eBay marketplace that connects people to the causes they care about by offering them easy, convenient, and trusted ways to give. All funds generated will benefit the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF). The compact is valued at $3650 and will be auctioned on www.ebay.com/lorealparis. The auction has an opening bid of $500 and will run from January 11th through January 18th. The charity auction is being managed on eBay by Auction Cause, a premiere auction management company.
