Touch-Up Roots in Photos with Shutterfly.com.

Have you ever thought you looked great in a picture only to discover your roots were b-a-d? You know how to touch them up in real life, and photo editing services help you reduce your red eyes and even whiten your teeth. But those dark roots?

Well, Clairol's Nice ‘n Easy and Shutterfly created a unique tool to remove unsightly roots from photos, so those roots of the past can be banished. How exciting! This is the first tool of its kind and it was created exclusively for Shutterfly to help virtually make-over roots!

This new and exclusive tool can be found through this special Shutterfly link beginning tomorrow, June 1st.

In addition to being able to easily upload your photo and “repair your roots”, Shutterfly has created a fun “Root Blaster Game” where you need to spot the women who need root touch ups. A winner of the live contest will win a trip to the Dominican Republic!

I am so excited about this new tool and cannot wait to try it out for myself tomorrow. Remember, the tool will not be live until June 1st.

Hoping that you will join me in trying out this new tool, I have partnered with Clairol and Shutterfly to offer a great little contest. Ten winners will receive a coupon code for a free 8X8 photobook on Shutterfly. This offer is good for an 8 X 8 hard cover 20 page photo book worth $29.99. To be entered into the contest, this is what you will need to do:

• Go the the Root Touch Up Photo Editing Tool on Shutterfly.com and follow the directions to get your roots virtually touched-up.
• Go to the Beautiful Makeup Search Facebook Page and "Like Us" to be able to upload a photo.
• Now, post your before and after Root Touch-Up photo on our fan page.

That's it.

Ten winners will be randomly selected from all of the correctly submitted and uploaded entries. Contest will close at 11:59 PM EST on June 30th, 2010.

Stay tuned for some real Root Touch-Up tips from Clairol's new color director, celebrity colorist Marie Robinson.

*This is a sponsored contest from Clairol and Shutterfly.

The tool is now live and working. It is pretty fun to play with. I hope you check it out and post your before and after photos over on our Facebook page. Remember, ten readers who use the tool and submit their photos will be entered into our giveaway for a FREE photobook.

Take a look at the pcture I used in a before and after. I mean, really, how much better does the model look with those gray roots corrected?
