Magazine's Anonymous ?

Ok, Ok, I hold my hands up ! I'm addicted to buying magazines ... for the freebies. I can't help it ! There are always good product giveaways - products that aren't normally in my budget or I don't think are worth the price, even if I could afford them I can't always justify the prices at full size so it's a great way of trying products you normally wouldn't have the chance to!
I always try to post about free magazine giveaways because I know most people are in the same situation as me, however my magazine binge is becoming an unhealthy habit and the worst thing is I know I won't stop... all in the name of beauty hey ?
Red Magazine 'July 2012' - £3.90 : 
Jemma Kidd Make Up School I-Glamour Volume Mascara in Black  Normally: £15.00 (Saving: £11.10)
Harper's Bazaar 'July 2012' - £4.20 :
Leighton Denny Nail Polish in Coral Reef Normally: £11.00 (Saving: £6.80)

Red Magazine and Harper's Bazaar aren't normally magazines I reach for but seeing how good the freebies were I caved in. Setting aside the endless pages of advertisements I was very impressed with the contents of both magazines, so thumbs up. 

Sorry for another 'magazine' post but I thought you guys would appreciate the head's up - you can get a really good deal! I hope you all had a nice weekend. Let me know if you managed to get your hand's on either Red Magazine or Harper's Bazaar for your freebies and as always if your spot a 'magazine freebie' let me know. x

    1. Its a gorgeous colour, I put it on straightaway. The formulation is not the greatest but it can be easily forgiven because of the colour. It makes me look tanned even on my indian skin tone ..lol. The samples are the best things in magazines xxx

  4. This month alone I seem to have bought Glamour (Benefit freebies), Tatler (sunglasses) - then for no reason Look, Grazia and Now (two of them came in a packet so that's like getting a free magazine, right?). Maybe we need some sort of ten step program - my mum already makes jokes our house is like a hairdressers! Love this post :)

    1. The thing is they seem to have freebies with each issue - is that normal? My purse gets frightened every time I open it now lol. I think because sometimes you get a full sized item, you save a bit of money so the savings are brilliant but yes I agree with your mum I have a whole stack of magazines and it is beginning to look like the stacks at the hairdressers x
