Beauty chat - freebies/gifts with purchase/offers THREAD TEN

[OvaHere]

We set a record with the last thread. Just 2 weeks from start to finish!!!!

So here's the new one and we're now in double digits.

As always everyone is welcome to join even if you've just been lurking, but like those kids on the back of the school bus your Mum warned you about, we are a bad influence.... 😈

I've found brushes are a strangely personal thing though. I have a powder cheek brush I always find myself reaching for that was a very cheapy one from Superdrug. Why do I like that brush so much? I can't really say.

I was curious as I’ve got some too, and wasn’t sure. I found this reviewer who says you can use as a toner, or a second step cleanser.

Sadly, it doesn’t tidy up 😊

Thank you that’s helpful. I think I’ll use it as a hydrating toner pre-serum and moisturiser. I’m doubtful about multi-purpose items. I’d rather just use a gentle cleanser. I guess this is a liquid version of Pond’s Cold Cream in terms of multi purpose use.

@JoRaRaRa Vinted just told me you've listed an Hourglass mascara. I was actually looking for a new tubing mascara but I assume the fact you're selling it means you wouldn't recommend? 😆 I only recently discovered tubing mascaras, they're life changing and I will never go back! But I have a Revolution one and my only criticism is it's a bit thick/gloopy and I don't feel like my lashes look very 'neat' (or particularly long). I was planning to try a couple of others just to see whether there's another I prefer. Was there anything in particular you dislike about the one you're selling?

PS I'm not stalking you, I promise 😂 But if I'm going to buy on Vinted at least if I buy from someone on this thread I'm a bit more confident I'm getting something genuine!

I’m with you on the Swiss Army Knife approach to skincare. Choose a lane and stay in it.

How else do we grow our stash, if people start producing multi use products? 😂

Ponds cold cream, now there’s a memory of my nan and her 4711 Eau de cologne. ❤️

The Hourglass one is my goto tubing one, I have not tried the revolution one but love Hourglass Unlocked. No panda eyes and comes off like a dream.
I do curl my lashes and it holds the curl, I seem to try lots but always go back to Hourglass, I may have 10 travel sizes in my stash 🤭🤭

Stalk all you want 🤣 I'd also rather sell to someone I speak to on here, at least then I know it's someone who won't try to scam me (hopefully) 🤣

I like the hourglass mascara but I now have so many mascaras, including quite a few hourglass ones that it's going to take me forever to get through them 🙈 I'm tempted to sell a few others from my stash to just reduce it.

Thanks for the Beauty Pie review @OvaHere . I can't see a trial period offer, but may just sign up. They don't take payment until you make your first purchase

They must have changed it. I can sort of see why. I think the trial used to be 2-3 months which was plenty of time to buy stuff then never actually sign up which I suppose lots of people did.

I might downgrade to the £29 membership next year. Although I like their stuff I'm not sure I buy enough volume or often enough to justify it really.

Am now pondering a Vlando.

Darn you, Pond 😀

Hope you don't mind me following you on Vinted too. I promise I won't make ridiculously cheeky offers 😁

Ok deal 😆

Happy to continue to fund the beauty habit. We can all enable each other!

Thank you for the reco, you have successfully enabled me to buy a new mascara and made JoRaRa some money 😁

How fabulous ❤️

Whoever was after a Kevin Aucoin eyelash curler a couple of days back, one has just appeared on Vinted (it’s not me selling!)

It was @BakeOffRewatch

Not at all 🩷

As if we haven’t spent enough money with Cult recently, they are launching a gwp with a £100 spend.

• Dr Dennis Gross Alpha Beta Ultra Gentle Peel x 3

• Decree SOS Revitalising Eye Mask x 1 worth £12
• Medik8 C-Tetra Advanced 30ml Full Size worth £70

@MrsBnow12 it's such a shame that they didn't have it on the other day with the 40% off code 🤣

@JoRaRaRa how do I find you on Vinted? I’d much rather buy from trusted RHOBA.

The thought did cross my mind 😂😂

Hmm that's the vitamin c I use so that might be worth it for me. Not sure I can think of £100 worth of things to buy from CB right now though

My name on there is jojarle 💞

It is a good gwp, but I don't dare spend another £100 🤣

25% off most things at Look Fantastic with code LFTFMOLLIER. Works with the YSL blushers 🙈
