Magazine Freebies- August 2012

Hello everyone! 

Today I decided to do a post on magazine freebies for August 2012.
I enjoy reading these types of posts so I thought I would do one myself this month!

Here are some magazines I picked up:


Marie Claire are offering their readers a full size Avon mascara worth £10, there is a choice of lengthening, volumising or curling! I have wanted to try an Avon mascara for a while and thought I would try out the lengthening mascara as I have many volumising ones and would like to add more length to my lashes!
I'm very excited to try it out!
Marie Claire costs £3.70 which is an absolute bargain for what you are getting!


Elle are offering a sample of St Tropez gradual tanner available in two shades; light/medium or medium/dark.
I picked up the medium/dark one and I am so excited to try it! I haven't tried any of the St Tropez tanning range before.


Cosmopolitan are offering a misguided nail polish, you have a choice of three colours; yellow, orange or pink. I chose yellow as I don't own any yellow nail polishes and this is such a lovely colour for summer!
Cosmo costs £3.50 and these polishes retail at £5 so again you are getting a great bargain!


InStyle have some fabulous freebies featured inside! They're offering a free Georgio Armani mascara worth £7, a Shisiedo gentle cleansing foam also worth £7, plus 20% off Elemis products at timetospa.co.uk AND 10% off a benefitcosmetics.co.uk!

Other mags with more fantastic freebies to get your hands on:
Glamour, Red Magazine and Harpers Bazaar!
   
Did you pick up any freebies this month?
