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’m usually using the mirror to put on makeup or squash the grossness out of my pores… gross. I know.

    Look at me! I always check for eye boogers. Ew!

    I could really use this for a mirror that’s sporting the plastic holders in my hallway. I’ve always wanted to transform that look.

    LOOK AT ME! I’m usually bemoaning the fact that I’ll still get a pimple even though I’m 31. At least if I got a frame I could concentrate on that instead. :)

    My mirror has turned into a tester… I work with kids so once I put on an outfit I have to bend over and move around and sit down to make sure nothing bunches or slips or wrinkles too much.

    Actually, don’t look at me… if I’m looking in the mirror, it’s probably because I haven’t finished putting on my makeup yet. Kind of scary. :)

    Um…all of the above? I’m always looking in mirrors; what I’m looking at probably depends on what I’m most self-conscious about in the moment!

    When looking in the mirror, I always tend to glance at the fact that I hate the way my bangs look… but then again, even after I go to my hair stylist, I’m never happy. Oh well. :)
