I just bought Harpers Bazaar with a very decent sized Ren rose otto body cream.

I wish one was doing the benefit benetint, had it free from glamour and it's lasted aaaaggesss!

kerstina · 30/04/2013 18:11

Which one will have benefit mascara please as I need a new one?

WipsGlitter · 30/04/2013 18:11

Red subscription had a mini Chanel mascara!

cocolepew · 30/04/2013 18:13

Marie Claire out at the moment has a nail polish, can't remember what make.

MooMinCow · 30/04/2013 18:17

Next months MC has an Avon set I think. Red lippy, eyebrow pencil and BB cream from what I remember.

I like the Nails Inc freebies (am building quite a collectionWink)

Thank you Smile

It was Ciara nail varnish or something with Marie Claire. I got the gold one and it was rubbish! The magazine also came with a free tube of Jergens moisturiser too though.

i had a free Chanel mascara too, but I was not impressed. I wore it for work and it really smudged. I ended up with panda eyes :(

Stopputtingitoff · 30/04/2013 20:23

Not a fan of the Chanel mascara either. At least they gave us a freebie so we don't have to buy it to discover its rubbish.

Elle has Benefit's They're Real mascara

OP posts:
MooMinCow · 01/05/2013 18:37

I thought it was all of them but apparently not

MooMinCow · 01/05/2013 18:41

And no Avon things either Wink

MooMinCow · 01/05/2013 18:42

QueenBee - try the cheapo 2True brand for their own version of Benetint. It's excellent. Available in Superdrug for the princely sum of £2.

I have just seen in boots that they are actually selling a smaller version of the same mascara that elle are giving away for nine pound fifty so it loks like the freebie is great value.

but wasn't the box for the Chanel free mascara lovely, ladies? with the mirror and everything? I was so excited despite the mascara being average plus the fact that I didn't pay for Red anyway it's a nectar claim subscription Wink

cocolepew · 02/05/2013 17:32

Don't buy Company magazine for the mascara free with it, it's poop.

I think given the freebies available this month you are half way to a basic makeup bag.

Mascara (elle or marie claire)
Lipstick (marie claire)
Eye liner - mc
Bb cream sample -mc
Nail polish- instyle

Not bad
