- WINNER SELECTION AND NOTIFICATION. All entries will be judged on or about December 1, 2008 (the "Judging Date"), by a panel of judges consisting of Glamour producers and Sponsor representatives.

The three (3) entries with highest overall score will be declared the potential winners (in the event of a tie, the entry with the higher score in the “uniqueness” criterion will prevail). Any potential winner will be notified by mail, e-mail and/or telephone. If a potential winner cannot be contacted, does not respond within five (5) days from the date the Sponsor first tries to notify him/her, and/or the prize or prize notification is returned as undeliverable, such potential winner forfeits all rights to win the Promotion or receive the prize, and an alternate potential winner may be selected.
