Magazine Freebies! June 2014 (Part 2)


I have already blogged about the magazine freebies for June but, since writing I have discovered some more, so here is Part 2.

First up (Thanks to a lovely reader, Lovesandloathes, for the heads up on this one!) is Instyle magazine, out now. It is priced at £3.90 and the July issue comes with a 30ml REN Rosa Centifolia Hot Cloth Cleanser with a luxury cotton cloth. This is the only freebie I have gone for this month.

Whilst shopping today, I saw the July issue of Cosmopolitan magazine. Priced at £3.70, it comes with a free pair of sunglasses and a packet of strawberry Mentos! There are 3 styles of sunglasses to choose from.

Finally is Harpers Bazaar magazine. The July issue, out now, priced at £4.20 has a free Leighton Denny nail polish. The polish is worth £11 and there are 6 colours to choose from.

It certainly seems to be the month for free nail polish!
I've not managed to track down Tatler so have yet to see what their sunglasses are like.

My post regarding this months magazine freebies Part 1 is here.
Please comment below if there are any others that I have missed out on.

Thanks for reading.
Take care,

Magazine Freebies! June 2014 (Part 1)


Just a quick "heads up" about some magazine freebies that are out this month.

First up is Red priced at £4. The July issue, out now, has a free gift of Mavala nail polish. It is available in 4 colours and worth £4.75.
UPDATE: I managed to find 2 of the colours - 
Wakiki Orange 
Moscow
If I discover the other 2 colours I will update again!

Next is Marie Claire priced at £3.90. The July issue is out on 5th June and comes with a free gift of a Ciate mini caviar manicure kit worth £10 (pic above).
There are 6 sets to choose from:
Peach Fizz
Party Punch
Starry Night
Purple Rain
Fairy Dust
Sunset Shimmer

Then there's Glamour magazine, July issue out on the 5th June has a free gift of an Eyeko Skinny Liquid eye liner, worth £12, in navy blue or black.

Finally, a non-beauty related freebie. I have heard that Tatler magazine has free sunglasses. I've not seen it myself, so I have no further details of which issue or brand, etc but shall update if I find out.

I don't think I will be going for any of these this month because I rarely paint my nails and I don't use liquid liner. How about you?
Have you found any freebies this month?

Thanks for reading.
Enjoy the rest of your day.
Take care,

You Beauty Discovery Box - April 2014


Apologies for going AWOL last week but it was the school holidays here in the UK and I was also a little under the weather so I guess life just got in the way...

Well, after what seemed a VERY long wait this month, my You Beauty Discovery box finally arrived yesterday. This months theme was "Organic and Natural".
The 2 options I chose were: a 30ml Brightening Clayspray and a tin of Steamcream.
I am looking forward to trying the Clayspray and shall report back when I have had chance to give it a good testing. The Clayspray retails for £15 and the Steamcream for around £12.95 but you can get some designs cheaper. Don't you just love the different tin designs?
The box also came with a sample sachet of The Organics Pharmacy Antioxidant Face Cream and a Fruity 9 Bar. I think I shall eat my 9 Bar today whilst they are all scoffing their Easter Eggs! 

For those who haven't heard of the You Beauty Discovery Box, it is a subscription box and costs just £6.95 per month and that includes postage! You get to choose 2 items for your box at the beginning of the month, but popular items do go quickly so don't hang around if there is something you really want! As you can see the items I chose this month way exceeded the £6.95 subscription cost so, to me, it is a "no brainer". 

If you are interested in learning about the You Beauty Discovery Box, you can find the details here. If you already subscribe, what did you choose this month?

I bought the box with my own money and all links on this blog post are affiliate free - I do NOT get rewarded if you click on any of them.
Thank you for reading and I would love to hear from you.
Enjoy the rest of your day and, if you celebrate, Happy Easter!
Take care,
CJ xx
