In the event of a tie, the tied entries will be rejudged by a new panelist to determine which entry is highest scoring.
 

  1. WINNER NOTIFICATION

 WYN Beauty will hold the Prize for up to three (3) days after the applicable draw. Should the Prize winner not claim the Prize within that time, with reasonable efforts having been made by WYN Beauty to contact the Prize winner,  WYN Beauty will conduct an ‘unclaimed Prize draw’ on 8/21/2024 at the same location as the original draw. The unclaimed Prize draw winner will be contacted within forty-eight (48) hours days of the draw.

Sponsor will attempt to notify the Winner via the social media address they provided in his or her entry via direct message. The Winner may be required to execute and return, within seventy-two (72) hours of notification (“Required Time Period”), an affidavit attesting to his or her eligibility and the address and/or email address to which the Prize will be sent, a liability waiver and an IRS W-9 form (where applicable) to be confirmed as a Winner (all such documents, the “Additional Documents”). The Additional Documents will require the potential winner to furnish his/her social security number for the sole purpose of tax reporting, as required by law. The Additional Documents must be signed and returned by the date indicated in the communication with which they are provided, or the potential winner will be disqualified.

 

If a potential Winner cannot be contacted by the information provided in his or her entry, fails to sign and return the Additional Documents within the Required Time Period or the potential winner is otherwise disqualified in accordance with these Rules, the potential Winner forfeits all interest in the Prize. If the Winner is disqualified, Sponsor reserves the right to select a substitute a new winner at random from among all remaining eligible entries or not award the unclaimed prize. Sponsor is not responsible for suspended or discontinued Internet, wireless, or land-line phone service or a change in an entrant’s email, phone number or mailing address which may result in a potential winner not receiving initial prize notification or their Prize information.
