FREE Benefit Product With £2 Glamour Magazine

The July edition of Glamour Magazine came out today, with Benefit FREEBIES.

Yes yes, free Benefit!

Glamour run a Benefit freebie every year and this year is yet another great offer.

On offer are miniature sizes of The Porefessional, That Gal and Bad Gal mascara.

The magazine costs just £2.

Cover Girls: Fearne Cotton (looking stunning!), Eva Longoria and Kylie Minogue.

I got The Porefessional (7.5ml), as I have been wanting to try this for SO long, so was very happy to hear this was on offer! and how cute the mini box is!

I heard about this on Martin's Money Tips email when I got in to work this morning, so at lunch I was straight to Asda to grab a copy!

If you plan to get this, be very quick! These will fly out the shops like hot cakes!

I couldn't wait to try The Porefessional and as I decided to go last minute late-night shopping after work, I put it to use :) From just one use, I can tell you that I WILL most definitely be going out to purchase a full size The Porefessional! I love it.

Here's a FOTN with Benefit's The Porefessional as a primer under my makeup:

(Please excuse wet hair, I was in such a rush! My makeup was rushed too! After a 15 mile drive we only had 45 minutes before the shopping centre closed, so I had to go with wet hair! We only had time for Primark and I got 4 items, one of which is VERY exciting and I will post tomorrow, yay!)

 

and here is what my FOTN was made of:

Yes, I am wearing Topshop's Lip Stick in Powder Room!

- I was asked about this by a few girlies on a recent post, so now you can see what it looks like.

I love the shade but find it very drying/horrible feeling on and I personally would not recommend this.

I apply a lip balm before applying but even then it is still dry.

I do regret buying it, to be honest, at £7 it was a lot for something that I am not happy with. I will use it, as I refuse to waste. Maybe mixing some in a pot with Vaseline to make a tinted balm would be better??

^Quick review there, for those who requested^

Have you picked up Glamour Magazine?

Will you be going to buy this, if so, which will you be looking for?

Nails Inc Bluebell Nail Polish (Free with InStyle magazine)

Bluebell, a beautiful little flower...and now a beautiful little nail polish.

Nails Inc Bluebell polish, free with the latest edition of InStyle magazine (£3.50)

I picked this up the other week after I read about it on Martin's Money Tips email and just had to go to town on my lunch break to check out what polishes were on offer!

 

There are 3 shades to choose from, the others are Power Pink and Peach Sorbet. All gorgeous colours but I decided to go for Bluebell, as it was the best shade in my eyes.

The shades are exclusive to InStyle magazine.

I absolutely love this polish, it applies nicely, lasts ages with a great finish and is just such a nice colour!

AND IT'S FREE, OF COURSE!

Have you picked up any of the Nails Inc polishes with InStyle magazine?

I've got more nail posts coming soon and today I made myself a little schedule, as I have SO many back-logged posts, so I decided to take action and make myself a schedule of posts to do :)

I'm also currently taking part in Living Streets National Walk to Work Week :) So far I have walked (at least) 21.8 miles and I am loving it!

Anyone else taking part in WtWW?

Benefit Customer Service :)

A little thank you and praise tonight :)

If you read my London: The Haul post recently, you may have seen that I received a pretty Hervana umbrella as a freebie for purchasing 2 products (Hervana blush and the I'm glam...therefore I am palette). You may have also noticed/read that my umbrella only lasted me a couple of minutes before breaking :-(

Well, I sent an email to Benefit to let them know and a few days later I received an email saying they had a spare one that they could send. I was very happy :)

Yesterday I received an email to let me know that my umbrella had been posted and today I came home from work to find my umbrella already here!! Very very happy :)

There's me, happily posing with my new umbrella when I got home (no rain, no makeup!)

 

I just wanted to say a big thank you to Benefit for their customer service. They didn't have to send me a replacement, but they did, which I thought was lovely. I did not mention I had a blog, so it wasn't because of that, just general niceness :)

So, I am happy and would like it to rain now, so I can use my cute umbrella!

 

They also put a brochure and little sample sachet of High Beam in with the umbrella :)

 

Also, I realise I haven't put my Hervana blush review/swatches up yet, sorry! I will do that this week :)

It's Ah-mazing!

Glamour Mag - Percy & Reed Freebie Alert!!

I had to share this with you all :)

Last night, whilst browsing Tesco, I spotted the latest issue of Glamour magazine, which caught my eye as it had a free hair treat...

Percy & Reed hair products :)

There are 4 to choose from, Shampoo, Conditioner, Finishing Polish and Hydrating Mask...

I chose the Totally TLC Hydrating Mask (100ml) , as I thought it was the most suited for me (and because the design is sooo pretty!)

I saw these products on ASOS the other week and almost splashed out to buy some, so glad I waited now!

Glamour costs £2 and is available now :)

The whole collection is worth £43, so you can get the whole lot for just £8 (if you want to buy 4 magazines!)

I can't wait to try this product! It smells good too!

Hope you all have a great weekend.

I am currently sat in my room, wondering where to go for a little adventure today...

Exciting new product/freebie alert!!!

Today my sister and I were in need of something to do, and with it being a dull, rainy day, that meant the usual...go shopping! Well, we needed to stay indoors :)

Lacking money, I planned NOT to buy anything BUT then I was drawn to this wonder in Boots...

Firstly, how pretty?! and secondly...FREEBIE!!

I just had to!

 £5.29 Introductory Price (usually £6.29), with free Smokey Eye Palette.

Available now at Boots :)

I may swatch the eye palette, if anyone would like that, let me know! I will also post about the Mascara, when I try it out ;)

I also MAY have caved and done another Lush sale haul... Only a little one though! I will include this in with my sale post.

I only spent just over £8 today...but that is £8 less I have to last me the next 3 weeks until pay day :-/

Hope you are all having a good weekend!

I have a runny/blocked nose and a bad throat...just in time for NYE...joy.

Another Weekend, Another Haul

Hey girlies :)

I hope you all had a fab weekend!

I spent most of mine doing what I do best, spending money that I shouldn't be spending and also walking round and round shops helping my sister find outfits for her 21st Birthday Weekend this coming weekend :)

Below is my haul...

(I've had to miss out a couple of things, which were presents for Donna and my friend Kelly, also because one thing I bought myself I also bought Kelly :) I also got a couple of things which aren't on here: eye make-up buds, a white skirt for £2 and blue tights for 50p from Primark - for Smurf costume! and I also got the pink dress from Dorothy Perkins, which I had previously mentioned wanting for Donna's Birthday)

I will follow this post with an in-depth look and swatches of the Rimmel and Kleenex goodies.

Firstly...

My new advantage card arrived :) My last one was damaged and I had about 8 receipts (£1-something) worth of receipts to reclaim points from :)

The Haul.

Superdrug:

Impulse 'Loving Words', smells lovely! £1.99

Kleenex Shine Absorbing Sheets (x50) £1.49

Kleenex Eye Make Up Removal Wipes (x24) £1.49

The Kleenex products are on offer, half price. They stood out to me because of the pretty packaging, I am a sucker for pretty packaging!

Boots: 

My usual hair dye, £4.89

Rimmel 3 for 2:

Kate Moss Lasting Finish Lipsticks in 03 and 08 £5.49 (1 free!)

Glam' Eyes HD Union Jack Eyeshadow in 'True Union' £6.99

I also got a couple of photos of stands in Boots:

Collection 2000 collabo' with Diana Vickers - I love her make-up on the promo pic!

Rimmel Crack Your Colour - This looks interesting!! Anyone heard about this?? I can't see anything about it anywhere...

Christmas Gift Guides!! Love this!

Boots & Lush, 2 shops I will be doing a lot of my Christmas shopping in :)

Something else exciting that I got at the weekend was my 5ml bottle of Baileys new Biscotti liquer :) Which I got for free through a campaign on Baileys Facebook page! Yum.

Oh yes...and I also met Aled from KIGH again :):):):)

I love him! Such a lovely guy :) and his voice is beautiful.

Did you do any hauling over the weekend?
