Beauty, Bargains and Beyond

I have just picked up the April 2014 issue of Elle magazine which includes a Percy & Reed Wonder Balm 75ml worth £18. The magazine itself costs £4. The Wonder Balm is a leave-in balm which helps give your hair moisture, shine, smoothness, definition, softness, light hold, high humidity protection and manageability. It apparently gives you healthy looking and flawless hair. I haven't used it yet but will do a review when I have tried it out. Next months issue of Elle will include a £10 Nails Inc gift card and 25% off products online (not including sale products). I'm not sure what the £10 off covers but it says in the mag use towards Nails Inc services. Leighlee I bought the magazine with my own money

The December issue of Elle Magazine is out now and it comes with a great freebie.  Each magazine comes with a Benefit lipgloss and there are 3 to choose from - Coralista (coral colour), Hoola (dark beige nude) and Dandelion (a light creamy nude colour).  Each lipgloss is 6.5ml.  I picked the Coralista as I liked the colour, but I think that I might also pick up the Hoola gloss as well.  The magazine costs £4.  The full size lipgloss (15ml) retails for £14.50 on the benefit website, so the lipgloss that comes with the magazine is worth £6.28.       Leighlee
