LOS ANGELES, CA — MyGirlFund.com, a popular online adult social network, and SSSH.com, the premier erotic website for women, are teaming up to sponsor a Free Your Face challenge that celebrates the real beauty of women everywhere. The $1,000 photo contest empowers women to free their faces of makeup and inspire each other by letting their natural beauty shine through.

“We host a Free Your Face event annually for female members of our community and it’s always a huge hit,” said Stefan Patrick of MyGirlFund. “There’s nothing more intimate than baring your ‘true self’ to the world, and nothing more sexy than having the confidence to do so. We’re excited to collaborate with SSSH.com and open the contest up to everyone so that the Free Your Face message of empowerment will reach an even wider audience. It’s an inspiring, positive meme that we think resonates with Valentine’s Day.”

“Free Your Face represents the ethos of SSSH.com because it encourages women to be comfortable with and confident about themselves,” said Angie Rowntree, Founder of SSSH.com. “In an age when it has become the norm to use tinted powders to disguise our physical selves and technology to enhance our digital selves, it’s refreshing to see real women sharing their true faces with the world.”

Free Your Face entries will be accepted through Tuesday, February 25th, 2014. Winners will be announced the following Monday, March 3rd. Complete contest details can be found on here. “We expect to receive many stunning submissions,” MyGirlFund’s Patrick added. “And everyone is encouraged to participate in a #FreeYourFaceFriday event on Valentine’s Day February 14th by not wearing any makeup all or part of that day in solidarity with the contestants. When you free your face, YOU are gorgeous!”
