Contest Alert: Are You MORE Beautiful Than Ever?

Beautiful women of America  – and that’s all of you! – here’s your chance to win big. 

MORE magazine just kicked off its 2011 Beauty Search photo and essay contest, offering a unique opportunity for a woman over the age of 35 to showcase her inner and outer beauty (and win a fantastic grand prize).

Each entrant is asked to pen 1,500 inspirational words on why she is “more beautiful now than ever”, attaching a photo that shows off her personality, vitality and beauty. The complete rules and entry form are here.

Then the fun begins – get your family and friends to vote for your entry each day. Entrants garnering the most votes will advance to subsequent rounds until a Grand Prize winner and Runners-Up are chosen after voting closes on April 18.

There’s a beauty-full prize package at stake, too: the Grand Prize winner will receive $10,000 and a trip for two to New York City to participate in a hair & beauty session and photo shoot. She’ll also be featured in the pages of MORE.

We read your stories every day on RealSelf: “I feel beautiful, free and so alive,” “Amazed at the beautiful results,” “I’m so happy now”… so we know there are so many entries from within our community, just waiting to happen.

Go on, show off your RealSelf, share your story...and good luck!
