June magazine free gifts

75 replies

Six shades to choose from. It looks like there is a top coat /base coat as part of the duo.

Also there are free sunnies with Tatler and Cosmo and Elmis beauty balm with another magazine!

There ia a free neals yard remedy moisturiser to collect to with one of the other magazines.

A good month for freebies!

I think the Nails Inc colours are red, lilac or peach.

Trills · 07/06/2013 14:49

No Red in my Tesco (maybe you lot bought them all!) but I did get Marie Claire with Ciate nail varnish (in a beigey colour) and "caviar" (gold sprinkles).

I'm hoping it'll give me instructions on what to do with the sprinkles.

I bought Red from Waitrose today (I usually shop at Sainsburys but I just happened to be in Waitrose) but I get Angry when people swipe the gifts.
Unfortunately the mags are in a secluded bit of the store.
Some people don't have the concept of "Free Gift" though.

The glamour ones are models own
Choice of mascara, 2 lipglosses, eyeliner or lipliner
Lipglosses are pinky colour or like a peach nude

BrendaB85 · 07/06/2013 16:25

EMUZ · 07/06/2013 16:26

Argh, all gone in tesco (& it's a big 24 hour one). Oh well, just wanted the elemis stuff for holiday.

cocolepew · 07/06/2013 17:36

3 different sunglasses Brenda.

Allthingspretty · 08/06/2013 16:48

I got the Glamour for one pound with free eyeliner. I go through eyeliner like nobodies business.. must try the Red Elmis stuff. sounds good Grin

Allthingspretty · 08/06/2013 16:55

i dont like eyelinwr and mascara gifts very much

The Elemis flash balm is really lovely, I'm tempted to go back and get another if telco still have them. It smells very similar to the Sanctuary Mela range.

The Rodial tan is also very good, I got the clear version. Easily absorbed, natural, believable colour and not sticky. It still stinks though!

The REN goodies are free with the August edition of RED, according to my issue. I'll be looking for those too!

Allthingspretty · 08/06/2013 19:09

thats what i was trying to do..buy multiple copies of. Red at a bargain price

OP posts:
RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 08/06/2013 19:14

It's a pity the magazines are all so shit though - nothing worth reading and little worth looking at. Red used to be okay but it's getting worse and worse.

Allthingspretty · 08/06/2013 19:16

i actually liked Red.

Anyonw know what the glasses with Tatler are like?

OP posts:
Trills · 09/06/2013 09:49

I definitely see it as "pay £3.80 for the free gift and get a magazine for free", otherwise it's depressing to think how much money you paid for how little reading.

hollyisalovelyname · 09/06/2013 13:11

I still don't understand why they all come together. Could somebody in magazine marketing explain please.

Trills · 09/06/2013 15:01

I doubt they discuss it with each other - they all seem to just have the same idea about when is a "good time" to have freebies.

mignonette · 09/06/2013 15:07

Rodial self tan with Elle but check the shade as comes in light or med/dark.

Red has Cie duo of varnish, Tatler has sunglasses and Harpers & Queen has varnish/top coat duo.

Next month there is a full size 'Occitane face product with Elle.

hollyisalovelyname · 09/06/2013 15:24

Trills many of the mags come frim the same publishing house

Trills · 09/06/2013 15:30

It may not even be the magazines that decide it - it may be the companies supplying the stuff.

Maybe Elemis or Ciate or Models Own think that June is a good time to give stuff away with magazines (presumably the idea is that you love it and so buy more stuff from them).

Cantdothisagain · 09/06/2013 19:53

I bought Red for the freebie. Hadn't in years. There is nothing in but adverts! I still miss Eve.
