OFFICIAL RULES
The Skin Bar Thanksgiving Giveaway 2026
Last updated: October 10, 2026 English version — controlling rules
NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. A PURCHASE OR PAYMENT WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING. VOID WHERE PROHIBITED.
1. Sponsor
The sponsor of The Skin Bar Thanksgiving Giveaway 2026 (the “Sweepstakes”) is THE SKIN BAR LLC, doing business as The Skin Bar Laser & Aesthetics (the “Sponsor”), 42850 Schoenherr Rd, Suite 5, Sterling Heights, Michigan 48313.
2. Promotion Period
The Sweepstakes begins on October 12, 2026 at 10:00:00 a.m. Eastern Time and ends on November 25, 2026 at 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time (the “Promotion Period”). The Sponsor’s designated computer and Gleam records are the official timekeeping devices.
Entries submitted before or after the Promotion Period are not eligible.
3. Eligibility
The Sweepstakes is open only to legal residents of Michigan who are at least 18 years old at the time of entry.
Employees, officers, contractors, and representatives of the Sponsor and its advertising, promotion, prize, and Sweepstakes-administration partners, together with members of their immediate families and households, are not eligible. Eligibility is subject to verification. The Sweepstakes is void where prohibited or restricted by law.
4. How to Enter for Free
During the Promotion Period, an entrant must complete all three of the following required actions through the official giveaway page at https://www.theskinbarmi.us/giveaway or its Ukrainian-language version at https://www.theskinbarmi.us/giveaway-ua
- Complete the free registration form, including first name, last name, telephone number, email address, required email verification, and eligibility attestations.
- Follow The Skin Bar on Instagram at @theskinbar_laser.
- Like The Skin Bar Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/theskinbarib.
Each completed action awards one displayed entry. An entrant who completes all three required actions receives exactly 3 displayed entries. A record with only one or two completed actions is incomplete and is excluded from the eligible drawing pool.
No purchase, payment, appointment, referral, social-media post, share, repost, Story, tag, invitation, or agreement to receive marketing communications is required. None of those activities creates an additional entry or improves the odds of winning.
An Instagram account and a Facebook account capable of completing the required actions are necessary to enter. Limit one registration action, one Instagram action, and one Facebook action per person. Attempts to obtain additional entries through multiple identities, email addresses, devices, social accounts, automated methods, or other deceptive means are prohibited.
5. Social-Action Records and Manual Validation
The Instagram and Facebook actions are subject to manual validation. Completion of a Gleam action, an entered username, an external-page visit, an action confirmation, or an entrant’s attestation does not by itself prove that the current Instagram Follow or Facebook Page Like exists.
For the Instagram action, the entrant must enter in Gleam the Instagram username used to follow @theskinbar_laser. If selected as a potential winner, the entrant must confirm that username, and the Sponsor will manually inspect the current relationship using the official business account.
For the Facebook action, the entrant must open The Skin Bar Facebook Page through the configured Gleam Like on Facebook action, like the Page using the entrant’s own Facebook account, and return to Gleam to confirm completion. The configured action does not automatically prove the current Page Like. If selected as a potential winner, the entrant must confirm the Facebook identity used and may be asked for a profile URL if reasonably necessary for validation. The Sponsor will manually inspect the current Page Like status using reasonably accessible platform evidence.
Both required social actions must still be present when a potential winner is validated. If the Sponsor cannot reasonably verify either required action, or if the potential winner is no longer following the Instagram account or liking the Facebook Page at validation, the potential winner will be disqualified and the Sponsor will conduct a documented random redraw from the remaining eligible pool. The same validation standard applies to every alternate potential winner.
Sharing, reposting, tagging, publishing an Instagram Story, inviting another person, or referring another entrant earns no entry, points, improved odds, prize benefit, or other consideration.
6. Entry Limit and Review
Every valid entrant has exactly 3 displayed entries: registration +1, Instagram Follow +1, and Facebook Page Like +1. All three actions are required. Records with only one or two displayed entries are incomplete and excluded from the eligible drawing pool.
The Sponsor may review and invalidate entries reasonably determined to be ineligible, incomplete, false, duplicated, automated, manipulated, abusive, obtained through prohibited means, or unsupported by the required verification evidence. Entrants may not use bots, scripts, disposable accounts, misleading claims, another person’s identity, or another person’s social-media account. The Sponsor may request reasonable proof of age, Michigan residency, identity, or completion of a required action.
GIVEAWAY25, booking, purchase, redemption, marketing consent, sharing, Stories, tagging, invitations, and referrals create no additional entry and do not improve the odds of winning.
7. Prizes and Approximate Retail Values
Three separate prizes will be awarded, with one prize per verified winner.
First Prize
One Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max in Burgundy (dark red), 256GB, U.S. eSIM-only, factory unlocked and not tied to a carrier. Approximate retail value: $1,299 before applicable tax.
The first-prize winner is responsible for carrier service, activation, accessories, data plans, and other costs not expressly included.
Second Prize
One Glo2Facial with RF Lifting treatment at The Skin Bar. Approximate retail value: $250.
Third Prize
One Full Body Endospheres Treatment at The Skin Bar. Approximate retail value: $200.
The aggregate approximate retail value of all prizes is $1,749 before applicable tax. Actual value may vary. No cash alternative is offered. If a stated prize becomes unavailable, the Sponsor may substitute a prize of equal or greater value. A prize may not be transferred unless the Sponsor approves the transfer in writing. No winner will be required to pay the Sponsor a fee or purchase any product or service to claim an awarded prize.
Each service prize consists of one session of the identified service and must be used by March 31, 2027. Service prizes are subject to appointment availability, the Sponsor’s ordinary consultation and informed-consent process, applicable device instructions for use, contraindication review, and the treating provider’s good-faith safety determination. Results are not guaranteed. If a verified winner is not medically or professionally suitable for the stated service, the Sponsor will provide a safe alternative service of equal or greater approximate retail value; no cash substitution is available.
Each service-prize winner may reschedule once without penalty by providing at least 24 hours’ notice. A late cancellation or no-show may result in forfeiture if this condition is disclosed in the booking confirmation. Service prizes are nontransferable.
Each winner is responsible for all federal, state, and local taxes and any incidental costs not expressly included. A non-cash prize may be taxable income at its fair market value. The Sponsor may require a potential winner to complete tax documentation when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law. Tax-identification information will be requested only from a potential winner when required and through an approved secure channel, not ordinary email.
8. Random Drawing and Winner Verification
On November 26, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the Sponsor will use Gleam’s built-in random drawing tool to select three separate potential winners from the eligible drawing pool.
Before the drawing, the Sponsor will exclude incomplete records and reconcile invalid, duplicate, automated, or otherwise ineligible entry records. Every valid entrant in the eligible pool will have exactly 3 displayed entries. The Sponsor will configure repeat winners to be disallowed, and one person may receive no more than one prize.
The first valid entry drawn will be assigned the First Prize, the second will be assigned the Second Prize, and the third will be assigned the Third Prize, subject to verification. If the same person is selected again through that person’s remaining displayed entries, the later selection will be invalidated and redrawn from the remaining eligible pool.
Before a potential winner is announced or confirmed, the Sponsor will verify eligibility and manually verify that both required social actions are currently present. A potential winner is not a winner unless and until verification is complete and the Sponsor provides confirmation.
The drawing may be streamed on Instagram Live and recorded for transparency. Viewing or attendance is not required to win, and private entrant information will not be displayed.
9. Notification, Response Deadline, and Alternates
Potential winners will be contacted privately using the email address supplied at registration and, when reasonably necessary, by the telephone number supplied for Sweepstakes administration.
A potential winner must respond within 72 hours after the Sponsor sends the initial notification and must provide the requested eligibility and prize-delivery information. The Sponsor will make one initial email attempt and may make one reasonable telephone call or voicemail attempt before the response period expires. The same response deadline and verification standard apply to all potential winners.
The Sponsor will never require a potential winner to pay a fee, purchase a product or service, provide a gift card or cryptocurrency, or disclose bank-account credentials to claim a prize.
If a potential winner cannot be contacted, does not respond within 72 hours, is ineligible, cannot verify either required social action, is no longer following the Instagram account or liking the Facebook Page at validation, declines the prize, or fails to complete reasonably required documents, that potential winner will be disqualified. The Sponsor will conduct a documented random redraw from the remaining eligible pool to select an alternate potential winner.
10. Odds
Odds of winning depend on the total number of valid entrants in the eligible drawing pool. Every valid entrant contributes exactly 3 displayed entries after completing all three required actions. Incomplete records with only one or two completed actions are excluded.
A purchase, appointment, GIVEAWAY25 receipt or redemption, sharing, referral, or marketing consent does not increase the odds of winning.
11. GIVEAWAY25 Participant Offer
GIVEAWAY25 is a separate participant thank-you offer sent once after an accepted, email-verified registration. It is not a Sweepstakes prize, required action, or entry method. Receiving or redeeming the offer does not confirm final Sweepstakes eligibility, verify a social action, create an additional entry, or improve the odds of winning.
GIVEAWAY25 provides an eligible first-time client whose accepted registration can be matched to the participant roster with $25 off one eligible service subtotal of at least $150 before tax and gratuity. Limit one use per person. The offer cannot be combined with WELCOME25 or any other discount or offer. Retail products, gift cards, packages, memberships, taxes, and gratuities are excluded. Redemption is optional and requires no purchase merely to receive the code. The qualifying appointment must be completed by December 31, 2026 at 11:59:59 p.m. Eastern Time; booking alone does not satisfy the deadline. The offer has no cash value and is nontransferable.
12. Winner Documents and Publicity
A potential winner may be required to sign an eligibility affidavit, liability release, tax form, or other documentation reasonably necessary to verify eligibility, comply with law, and fulfill the prize.
After verification, the Sponsor may identify a confirmed winner by first name, last initial, city, state, and prize. Any advertising use of a winner’s photograph, likeness, voice, testimonial, or endorsement requires a separate written publicity release where applicable and will not be bundled into optional marketing consent.
13. Privacy
Entrant information will be used to administer the Sweepstakes, validate entries, contact potential winners, prevent fraud, fulfill prizes, meet legal obligations, and maintain necessary records.
The Instagram username is collected when the entrant completes the Instagram action. The Facebook action opens the public Facebook Page and records the entrant’s confirmation in Gleam; it does not automatically return proof of a current Page Like. The Sponsor does not ask for a Facebook password. A selected potential winner must confirm the social identities used and may be asked for a Facebook profile URL only if reasonably necessary for manual validation.
Information may be processed by service providers acting for the Sponsor, including Gleam and website or communications providers. Marketing communications require a separate optional, unchecked choice. Declining marketing does not affect entry, eligibility, or odds. Sweepstakes-administration communications are separate from marketing communications.
The Sponsor will limit collection to reasonably necessary information, restrict access, retain records only as needed for administration and legal obligations, and securely delete or de-identify records when no longer needed. The Sponsor’s privacy policy is available at https://www.theskinbarmi.us/privacy-policy.
The Giveaway Privacy Notice is available at https://www.theskinbarmi.us/giveaway-privacy.
14. General Conditions
The Sponsor may suspend, modify, or terminate the Sweepstakes if fraud, technical failure, platform changes, legal requirements, or events beyond its reasonable control materially impair the integrity or operation of the Sweepstakes. Any permitted change affecting entrants will be disclosed transparently.
The Sponsor is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, corrupted, misdirected, inaccessible, or failed entries or communications caused by circumstances beyond the Sponsor’s reasonable control, including internet, platform, device, or technical failures. The Sponsor’s decisions concerning administration, eligibility, validation, and winner selection are final to the extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Official Rules limits rights or liabilities that cannot legally be waived.
Michigan law governs the Sweepstakes and these Official Rules, without giving effect to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction in Michigan, subject to any rights that cannot legally be waived.
15. Platform and Brand Disclaimers
This Sweepstakes is not sponsored, endorsed, administered by, or associated with Apple Inc., Meta Platforms, Inc., Facebook, Instagram, or Gleam. Apple Inc. is not a Sponsor of and is not affiliated with this Sweepstakes. Facebook, Instagram, Apple, Meta, and Gleam do not determine eligibility or select the confirmed winners.
Entrants provide their information to the Sponsor and Gleam, not to Apple, Facebook, or Instagram. Questions concerning the Sweepstakes must be directed to the Sponsor, not to Apple, Facebook, Instagram, Meta, or Gleam.
16. Winners List
After all winners have been verified, a winners list may be requested by sending a written request marked “Thanksgiving Giveaway 2026 Winners List” to THE SKIN BAR LLC, 42850 Schoenherr Rd, Suite 5, Sterling Heights, MI 48313.
