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 probably check my teeth most often. Although lately, it’s my pregnancy related “outie” that gets a lot of nirror attention.

    Uhh, maybe not the most time, but definitely a daily check.
    I’m slightly embarrassed to admit it, but I do a rear end check to make sure my panty line doesn’t show and that my butt doesn’t look too flabby in the pants I’m wearing.

    Depends on when I’m looking in the mirror – mostly fixing my hair lately. But that’s because I hacked it short in January and it’s at a very awkward phase right now. If I pull on it will it grow faster?

    “LOOK AT ME!”

    I have a couple of mirrors that need frames — I’m quite excited about this, when I look in said mirrors I usually look at my hair, and my eyes. I don’t know why, it just happens.

    I usually make weird faces in the mirror. I think, wow, good thing I don’t look like this all the time. Then I realize later on that I make that face in “real life” all the time. Oops.
    P.S. I totally love mirrormate – was trying to make a tile frame for me mirror, but think I may have to give up and for for mirrormates. . .

    Oh, how I wish I had more time to obsess over my pores in front of the mirror… I’d say the majority of my face-time consists of my 5 minute “running late again!” make-up routine every morning!

    With 2 kids 3 and under, I hardly have time to look at myself in the mirror. However, my 3 year old is very into her appearance these days and loves to stand on her step stool to see her reflection in my very ugly builders mirror (definitely could use the MirrorMate!), saying, “Look at me, don’t I look beautiful?” It cracks me up every time! :)
