What is The Face of Pink Ink?

Well for the last month and a bit many of you have seen all of the posts about The Face of Pink Ink contest.  Some of you may be wondering what this contest is all about.  Others wonder how the winners are chosen.  Let's clear up all the questions now!  

Let's start with some pics of last year's contestants.

Nice right?  The Face of Pink Ink contest is an empowerment program for women.   The winners get a slew of prizes from Gold Sponsor, ENJO with Lynn Grushka; Zipsessories, Jenn Lautebach with thirty-one gifts; WIBusiness; Pink Ink; Jane the Bra Lady; and Reflexology with Diane Boundikas.  Prize package is worth $4000!!!!

Whew - amazing right?  All contestants will receive a few hours of pampering - hair, makeup, styling and professional photoshoot.  They will get to choose their favorite picture to keep AND receive a swag bag with goodies from our sponsors - ENJO, Saidat, Seacret, Nerium, Aloette, thirty-one with Jen Lautebach, Reflexology with Diane Boundikas, Zipsessory, Plexus Slim, Phelan Photography, Jamberry Nails, Peggy's Clean Team, thirty-one with Melissa Van Sas, Personal Training with Michelle Goldrick, Park Lane with Tammy McEwan and Motivated Moms.   It's an amazing time and all contestants leave with a HUGE smile on their face.

Once all of the pictures are taken, they are compiled according to age category - 16-25yrs, 26 - 40yrs and 41yrs +.  The albums are posted on facebook on the Pink Ink page, The Face of Pink Ink Page, and the other event sponsors' pages (a list will be provided below).  People from all over the world cast their vote on who they think should be the next Face of Pink Ink.  They judge based on the picture and the contestants' thought of what beauty means to them.  

The top three contestants from each category will be brought to a judging panel of industry professionals - Michelle De Corneille Sullivan - photographer, Denise Pelley - musician and recording artist, and Carmina de Young - fashion designer.

"MOMinations" - Nominate your favourite Mom!

One more Mother's Day idea…

Okay two, but I'm going to make you look like a rockstar!

My gals at Pink Ink have a contest coming up called "The Face of Pink Ink 2014".

It's not the contest so much that I'm endorsing (although I am a sponsor!) it's the experience that you could give to your Mom, wife, sister or bestie.

Let me break it down for you:

You nominate an amazing woman in your life by submitting a letter to info@pinkinkimage.com.  (there is a $99 fee - but wait till you see what that gets them!)

Pink Ink (or I) will then forward your nomination on to your nominee to let them know exactly how wonderful you think they are and to let them know what's in store:

• The nominee will get their hair professionally styled.
• They will have their make-up professionally applied
• They be dressed by professional stylists 
• They will be photographed in all their glory by a professional photographer who will give them a digital copy of their favourite image from the photo shoot.
• They will also receive a swag bag of goodies from some of the other sponsors of the event.

So that's the "What everyone gets" portion of the contest.

Tell me that doesn't sound like an amazing gift for someone special?

There is no way you could ever get all of this ANYWHERE for $99!

Check out last year's winners:

I'm thinking of entering just for the glam session!  (Obviously I can't win - don't worry).

Now for the contest portion of the event

• There are three age groups to the contest (so three winners!)  Ages 16 - 24, ages 25 - 40 and ages 41+

• Professional photoshoot with Angelic Images Photography featuring two different looks; professional and glamour.
