Hello sweets,
Im sure that you all know but Glamour has once again collaborated with Benefit to bring us 3 freebies to choose from with their July issue. I must admit i have been counting down to the 31st May for the past few weeks as i have been wanting to get my hands on these freebies for a while!
I am a massive fan of Benefit products, with Bella Bamba powder blush and the Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow foundation are a couple of my faves so i had to pick up a couple of copies of each.
This year Glamour magazine have offered a Mini Bad Gal Lash, Mini The Porefessional and Mini That Gal Primer, all sample sizes but big enough to get a few tries out of each one and all cutely packaged and boxed up.
So far, I have picked up 3 of The Porefessional and 3 of the Bad Gal Lash. I am yet to be able to find or get my hands on the That Gal primer! According to the beauty girlies on twitter too apparently its like gold dust and others are also finding it tricky to get their hands on! I will keep on trying though!
I have tried Bad Gal lash before and its a mascara that i absolutely love so i knew that i had to stock up. These are such fab handy little travel size tubes and i will most definitely be keeping one aside for my holidays! The Porefessional is a product that i have never actually tried before but have always been intrigued by and have read such rave reviews from other bloggers. I must say my first impressions are amazing! It makes my skin and foundation look flawless and it definitely stays put for much longer. A huge thumbs up from me! I will do a proper review of it when i have used it for longer but i really do like it so far!
Each magazine will set you back £2 and they say the samples are worth around £10-15 so its a great price to try some Benefit products.
Have you picked up Glamour magazine this month? Which products did you choose?

i couldn't find the that gal either :( i really wanna try it! i got 3 of the porefessionals too LOL cause it makes up to 22.5ml (which is 0.5ml more than the full size product!) for only £6 (instead of like £23.50!)
ReplyDeleteI still havent been able to find it! :( I worked that out too! So we have full size for a quarter of the price AMAZING! xxx
DeleteMy boyfriend managed to get me the primer. I'd recommend going to small corner shops, as they tend to have some.

Thanks Jess! Need to track it down for sure! xxx
DeleteI managed to get 'that gal' from my local ASDA, which had one copy and from a small WHS near me (but that one was hidden behind tons of other magazines) but from this it sounds like I was lucky! :)

Thank you! I will keep my eye out! Hope i can get my hands on it! xxx
DeleteI just did a wee post on what I picked up :) I just went for the Porefessional as I can't stand Bad Gal mascara and I'm not that interested in That Gal.xx
ReplyDeleteAww porefessional is great! Im so glad i got to try it! Ive fallen in love! :) xx
DeleteI think I'm going to stock up on the Porefessional, the actual full size is a little too expensive for me!
ReplyDeleteYes definitely! I have 3 which actually equates to a full tube but for a fraction of the price! xxx
DeleteI got 'The Porefessional' but all three products were in my local Tesco, wish I'd picked up Bad Gal Lash as well! :) x
ReplyDeleteBad gal lash is amazing Penny! I love it and would definitely recommend :) xxx
DeleteI picked up a copy this week with the primer, can't wait to try it! I've heard good things about the Porefessional too so may have to nab that if I can!
ReplyDeleteLove Aysh xoxo
Thanks so much Aysh :) I NEED to get my hands on that gal primer! The porefessional is amazing! xxx
DeleteI"ve managed to get The Porefessional and That Gal primer but I really want the mascara but can't get it anywhere! Always the way :) x

Always the way indeed Donna! Theyre so hard to track down, everythings going crazy for them! Good luck in your search! :) xx
DeleteI managed to find that gal in one of the larger tesco stores near to my house, and have also picked up the other 2 freebies aswell! it may be worth trying out the benefit mini boxes which give you a chance to sample benefit best sellers. I have the 'benefit to go beauty bestsellers' which has high beam, posie tint, that gal and some kind of gorgeous foundation at the fraction of the cost! I got mine for £10 on eBay which is a great way to try them and was the perfect price as I am only 16 so abit hard to splurge on expensive makeup!!xxx
ReplyDeleteIs this just in the UK? I heard about this a while back and was really looking forward to my Glamour issue in the mail (which Im not sure if it will come with it if it comes in the mail), but I haven't received the July issue yet. Strange..
