It is simple, work with all your beauty products. If you don't care for the consistency of an eyeshadow, change it by mixing it with another type. If a lipstick is not quite the right shade, work another color with it. Hair needing different shampoo for the day, change it. And, of course reading and seeing as much about new things out, to see what is available.
And, if you win, do you actually get the prize? I have not received mine from months ago.
I can't resist buying new beauty products--especially color products like eyeshadow or lipgloss.
I am stuck in a rut - I like to use the same products over and over, and it gets worse as I get older. 
I like to add variety to my beauty routine by changing up products according to season (ie: richer moisturizers during the winter and more sheer formulas for the summer, warmer, spiceir, woodsy scented products for the fall and winter vs. lighter, more herbal scents for the spring and summer, and deeper, darker, richer colors for the fall/winter and lighter/brighter colors for the spring/summer.)
The easiest way to add variety to my makeup is to change up my eyes. There are so many options out there that go great with green eyes. Somedays I play up my eyes with rich browns and purples, others I use a nice shimmery champagne color and play up my lips with a real red. Its so much fun to play with different makeup applications that on my days off I love to experiment with different looks. I ask hubs for his opinion and that way I know if its too over the top before trying it out on the town!
I add variety to my beauty routine by switching up the products that I use every few weeks.
I add variety to my beauty routine by changing up the haircare products I use as well as the fragrances to change my look and scent.

I love trying new products (not sure my husband loves my beauty product addiction though!). My favorite thing is to try subscription services that let me try a bunch of products at once...
I add variety in my routine by reading up on all the beauty blogs and reviews on beauty products I may be interested in. I always read up on a product before I go and buy, and then instead of buying full size products I like to but the trial size or travel size on products that I'm not sure about. (which are usually pretty generous)
If I like them I'll add them in, or totally switch it out by buying the full size for an old product that usually isn't working. Also it's all about mood, climate and the events I'm going to attend.I also like to buy kits or try me packages.
