So the next lot of monthly magazines are now on sale (August editions) and there are LOADS of freebies. I have to say, none of them have got me quite as excited as last month's Benefit and Ciate Paint Pot freebies, but there's still a few good 'uns.
I've been very restrained and only picked up two magazines when I popped into Tesco earlier - Red and Glamour.
With Glamour I picked up a Balance Me Rose Otto Intensive Lip Salve (10ml) worth £12.00 - I seem to be obsessed with lip balms at the moment, so it's another to add to my collection!
There's also a Balancing Face Moisturiser (20ml), Wonder Eye Cream (7ml) and Pure Skin Face Wash (50ml) from the range to collect.
With Red you get a little skincare pack of Ren Clean Skincare goodies worth £16.00. I've never tried this range before, but heard quite a few beauty bloggers talk about the brand, which seems to be highly rated. In the pack you get a Vetiver v7 Hand and Body Cream (15ml), Active 7 Radiant Eye Gel (5ml) and a Hydra-Calm Global Protection Day Cream (15ml). Looking forward to trying these out, they look and sound very luxurious!
Here's a little summary of what else is on offer:
1. Marie Claire - a choice of three Avon mascaras - Super Extend Extreme Mascara, Super Shock Max Mascara and Super Curlacious Mascara, worth £10.00 each.
2. Cosmopolitan - a choice of three Missguided nail varnishes worth £5.00 each. Choose from a bright pink, yellow or orange.
3. Elle - a St Tropez Gradual Tan Everyday Body Moisturiser (75ml) in either Light to Medium or Medium to Dark.
4. Harper's Bazaar - a Neom Hand Cream (50ml) in two different scents - Moroccan Blush Rose or Violet, Chamomile and Cedarwood, worth £15.00.
5. Instyle - you don't get an actual product free with this, but there are some offers inside. I had a sneaky peek as I wanted to find out how to get the free Giorgio Armani Eyes to Kill mascara - you basically have to rip out a specific page of the mag and take it to a Giorgio Armani counter. I really want to try this mascara, so I'll have to google and see whether there's a counter near me, then pick up the mag if there is. You can do the same with a Shiseido Gentle Cleansing Foam. They also had a 10% online Benefit code - I deliberately made a note of this for you guys - use AUGUSTSTYLE at the checkout!!
PHEW! That's the only ones I've spotted, but there's quite a choice!
Will you be buying any of these magazines this month?

Oooh so much choice this month! I can't buy them all though... or can I?
ReplyDeleteHaha it depends on how much willpower you have ;-) x
DeleteI went to look at the REN products as I love them, but wouldn't use any of them :( great post though :D xx
ReplyDeleteAw that's a shame! Thank you :-) x
DeleteI have picked up Glamour & got the Balance Me lip Salve and the Face Wash. I also picked up Red with the REN products & Harper's Bazaar with the NEOM hand cream. That smells AMAZING. I am really impressed with the samples this month.
ReplyDeleteI am a sucker for a freebie.
Me too! So hard to resist even if you wouldn't normally buy the mag or the product! Great way of trying new things though!
DeleteThe Neom scents do sound gorgeous! So tempting to go back for more! x
Ahh freebies are sooo tempting! Looks like I'm gonna be picking up glamour, cosmopolitan AND elle :)

DeleteSo many goodies this month - I want to buy them all! I picked up the face wash with Glamour and the St Tropez product with Elle, although there were no light to medium ones left so I've picked a medium to dark product...I'm hoping it doesn't come out TOO dark!
