Fab Freebie: Here’s Looking At You, Mate

***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries – see who won below!***

Good news: everyone can get 10% off their MirrorMate order with code VIRAL. And if they get 1000 new Facebook followers or new email subscribers, that code doubles to 20% for everyone. But here’s the better news (at least for one of you): random.org has chosen our winner as… Jessica (who says she’s usually checking the mirror to “make sure nothing is obviously out of place or gross”). Congrats!

So maybe I fudged that line from Casablanca a little. Thanks for letting it slide. It’s turning out to be a mirror-tastic day today, so if you’re stuck with a basic builder mirror that’s held up unceremoniously by dinky plastic clips, this is your shot to score an easy and elegant upgrade thanks to MirrorMate. You can customize a frame that sticks right over your existing clips, for a nice little mirror makeover. Check out more before & afters (and shop their collection of frame styles) here on their site (and on their Facebook page).

Mirror Mate Giveaway

  • PRIZE: A $200 gift certificate to MirrorMate, which will cover most frames.
  • TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “LOOK AT ME! and…
  • BONUS QUESTION: … confess what you spend the most time looking at when you’re in front of a mirror. Are you always fixing your hair? Doing outfit checks? Making sure nothing’s in your teeth. Or – be honest – are you constantly leaning in to examine every last pore on your face?
  • GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Wednesday, June 8th at 8pm EST
  • NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
  • PRIZE SHIPS: The US and Canada
  • USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday as an update to this post. That’s right, come right back here on Thursday for the announcement of our winners. Good luck…

Note: We weren’t paid or perk’d for hosting this giveaway, we just like rewarding our lovely readers! See our Giveaway FAQs page for more info. Pics from MirrorMate.

    I’m a mom of a toddler. I usually look in the mirror to remind myself if I put makeup on that day. Usually, the answer is no.

    Honestly, all of the above! Though, the hair only recently when I got it chopped for the first time in years. I feel so cute, I can’t help but check it out! And checking out the pores? YES. I am still paranoid and obsessed from all those acne ridden school years.

    LOOK AT ME! My master bath is TOTALLY stuck in the ’80’s with one of those wall size mirrors over a double vanity. This would be PERFECT! We’ve taken the other wall mirrors down in the two other bath rooms, but what the heck do you do with them then??? Ours are hiding behind a dresser! If anyone wants TWO BIG wall mirrors, let me know! As for actually looking in the mirror … well, who’s the fairest one of all? (Not me!) Thanks for the give away!!

    LOOK AT ME! I usually only spend a few miutes in front of mirror in the mornings and evenings while brushing my teeth. But if I just so happen to spot a gray hair, that’s it! I’m stuck searachin my head for more grays for at least 30 minutes!

    LOOK AT ME! Perfect timing, we are desperate to fix up the mirror in our partially remodeled bathroom. I usually tweeze, and now I have to go downstairs to do it b/c we took down the ugly mirror. I’d rather put it back up with a fix like this than buy something new!!
