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.

    Look at me! I am always looking in the mirror to fix my hair. My family used to even put me in a seat in the dining room that did not look at the mirror because all I would do is fix my hair during dinner!

    LOOK AT ME! Yipee!

    I’ve been lusting after these for some time now, even considering creating my own (Janelle from Isabella & Max has a great tutorial).

    Normally, I do a mirror double-take, stopping to make sure I don’t look to raggedy that day :) wfh allows me to stay in my comfy clothes way too much LOL

    This is perfect! I’ve been trying to figure out how to make my bathroom mirror less ugly, and have been considering making a frame out of leftover baseboard scraps. This sounds so much easier!

    And I’m usually in the mirror checking to make sure my hair is smooth and that I don’t have sunscreen streaks all over my face.

    “Look at Me”: I’m a new Mom, so spending time in front of the mirror is very rare these days. Most of my time is spent washing my hands & reading a positive affirmation I stick to my bathroom mirror to perk-up my self-esteem about being a Mommy. :) I WOULD LOVE LOVE LOVE a gift certificate to this website. I didn’t KNOW a product like this existed, and I stare at my annoying construction grade mirrors all the time wondering how I could frame them up. How cool is this!
