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 usually trying to make sure my mascara isn’t all over my face, my eyeliner isn’t crooked, I remembered to put both earrings on, etc. I usually look pretty put together but it’s touch and go early in the morning!

    Look at Me! And if I’m looking in the mirror, I’m probably doing my makeup in the morning or grumbling about my roots.

    These frames are pretty awesome. We just bought a house with frameless mirrors in the bathroom and it’s bugging me to look at them!

    Right now my mirror-face time is roughly divided between picking spinach out of my braces, and thinking “omg how ugly are these plastic mirror clips … I should really get a frame for this mirror …” Maybe if I win this I can finally put that wasted time to better use!

    I make sure meet the decency standard:
    No food on face? check.
    Mascara circles removed? check.
    Hair smoothed away from pinecone effect? uh..
    Can’t win them all.

    Always checking for stuff in my teeth and my nose. I have kind of large nose holes, I think.

    P.S. this is your opportunity to reward me and my husband as we are celebrating 24 years of marriage TODAY! Happily my nose holes were never an issue.
