I'm a bit confused, is this testing a shopping website, we still have to pay for the stuff? If so what's their price for Clarins Beauty Flash Balm please? If it's a good deal I would be interested.

I don't see this as a product trial if it is going to cost someone to do it? They are just getting 25 MNers to buy their products at a discount!

I'm a bit confused too, it sounds like it's 24hrs access to the member prices for the items but the order has to be paid for yourself.

I don't understand the spending limit bit

You usually have to pay a monthly subscription to access the products at reduced prices - so a 24h pass, with an additional reduction on top is a good opportunity.

I’ve been thinking about signing up for a while but I would like to be sure that the products are as good as they claim first, so I would love to have the chance to be involved.

Beauty pie is a company that offers at cost luxury cosmetics and skincare for the cost of a monthly membership of £10 which allows you to buy £100 worth of products at cost. So for example you pay £10 and then pay like £3 for a lipstick etc. I use beauty pie for all of most of my skincare and all of my make up. I really rate it. Won't be signing up for the trail (for obvious reasons) but I would highly reccomend it.

EmmaMumsnet are you able to check my details went through. My internet was a bit dodgy thanks!

I would do this but am put off by having to spend my own money to take part in a test... So, this one is not for me.

I think it's great actually I'm always suspicious of member sites etc. So getting to try it first is fine.

I think it sounds brilliant!

Yes, you do have to spend a bit of you're own money, but you are getting lovely things at a great price.

Would love this chance to try Beauty Pie!

Would love to try Beauty Pie, have thought about it but having to pay membership before trying products put me off...

Intrigued by this and obviously good value if the products are as good as the claims. Seems like a good opportunity to try it out.

As a member, for almost 2 years, but otherwise independent: obviously it depends whether what you buy suits your skin, and only you can judge that aspect, but I would reassure people that the products are good ; the colours are sensible (limited for WOC perhaps) and that nothing I've bought has caused any sensitivity. I tend to buy skincare and have not bought much make up, but when I have given family and friends BP presents, they have been pleased.

I'm happy to read on their website that they are against animal testing

In the FAQ's they claim that some of their products are suitable for vegans too. I've emailed customer services for a list as I'm struggling to find affordable options since I went vegan about 4 months ago and my make up bag is running very low!

Oh me please, someone was telling me about Beauty Pie the other day and I meant to look it up. Serendipity! Would love the opportunity to try it out please.

I considered joining Beauty Pie a few months ago after reading reviews of the foundation on a beauty blog, but have had a few disastrous purchases for beauty and skincare online going off reviews alone, so decided not to go ahead.
But seeing this offer is too good a chance to pass up! I've already been on and made a list of what I would like to buy and try...

Sounds very interesting.

I’m keen to try it. Keep nearly pressing go but am put off by the membership commitment

So do you pay £10 a month for the privilege of buying the products?
I find it hard to believe the products are drastically marked down, who pays full price and why if there's a way to get them 'cheaper'?
Is it not like me charging people £10 a month to go into Superdrug to buy makeup but telling them the makeup could be more expensive so it's worth it?

It's definitely worth a try in the run up to Christmas, I have beauty product obsessed teens to buy for. :)

24 hour free trial

I think my application went through, could you check for me please @MNHQ

It's all their own brand stuff so who says it's so massively marked down? Where do they sell a lipstick for £20 normally? I was interested when I thought it might be a chance to get proper brands cheaply, but this looks like the beauty equivalent of TKMaxx.
