FABULOUS 40+

As part of its international “Find Your Fabulous” wellness and medical tourism campaign, the Tourism Authority of Thailand (TAT) is unveiling a friendly global competition intended to salute ladies who are still fit and fabulous after their 40th birthdays. The Fabulous 40+ Photo Contest invites women from around the world to submit images showing off their “fabulous form, and the contestant showing the most youthful, age-defying appearance will be rewarded with an exclusive three-day Find Your Fabulous trip to Bangkok.

For 40+ foxes fixing to put their likenesses proudly on display, the excitement begins on Facebook. Candidates become fans of ThailandMedTourism and the Find Your Fabulous campaign; then, they submit their most fabulous photos — with their name, age range (40+, 45+, 50+), current location, and a photo description. Submissions should show the fresh face and figure, confidence, poise, and charisma that defines the modern, fabulous woman today in her 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond.” Winners of the Fabulous 40+ Photo Contest will be determined by the number of “votes” they get. The one with the most votes will be the winner, followed by the first and second runners-up respectively.

In addition to a full medical checkup, dermatology treatments and a spa package, the grand prize also includes two roundtrip air tickets and a deluxe two-night stay at the five-star Sofitel So Bangkok, with daily breakfast. The first runner-up will receive the health and wellness packages for two, as well as accommodation, while the second runner-up will receive the health and wellness packages for herself and a friend. The contest runs to Sept. 30, with the winners’ announcement via Facebook scheduled for Oct. 3. Awards are redeemable between Oct. 15 and Dec. 15. The TAT hopes that the Fabulous 40+ Photo Contest will further “illuminate Thailand’s thriving medical and wellness industry and the wealth of top-quality, convenient, and affordable aesthetic treatments on offer for international tourists of all shapes and sizes.” (http://www.facebook.com/thailandmedtourismfanpage)
