After spending the last two weeks in a state of upheaval (getting an amazing new bathroom - post to follow!). I went into town yesterday afternoon for a Giorgio Armani make-over at Harvey Nichols.
A £10 booking fee was charged (redeemable on products), a glass of pink fizz and a goodie bag. Nice way to spend a Thursday afternoon! After the make-over I bought Luminous Silk Foundation in shade 4.5 - one of my favourite foundations ever. In the goodie bag I got - 2ml Eyes to Kill Excess Mascara in Black, 5ml Fluid Master Primer (love this!), Rouge d'Armani Sheers - carded vial with three shades with little brush and 3ml Regenessence Youth Regenerator.
I also got some freebie magazines around town.
I also picked up the InStyle magazine freebies - 2ml Eyes to Kill Excess Mascara in Black (this is going in my upcoming giveaway) and 30ml Shiseido Extra Gentle Cleansing Foam. Your skin gets "read" by a machine and mine was read as slightly dry - I'm normally combination. The assistant recommended that I use a serum to counteract this.
Top Sante magazine (August) is offering a free L'Occitane Verbena Shower Gel 75ml (worth £7). You need to go instore with a voucher in the magazine. The Sales Assistant also gave me two sachets (each 6ml) of a new Limited Edition product - Verbana Body Ice Gel. I popped into the new Kiehl's shop and got a couple of 5ml sachet samples of Creme de Corps.
Using the Latest in Beauty L'Occitane offer I got 50ml Angelica Hydration Cream which cost £29 with a free 200ml Angelica Cleansing Gel worth £16. Absolutely love this range.
Finally, I picked up three Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain in Honey, Lovesick and Rendezvous.
Have you picked up any of the offers lately or anything nice?
Wow, fantastic haul! You make me want to live in a city so I can get the makeovers too

:) I'm sure they will - only downside she had to remove some of my make up from my make over to get skin bits to test :( x

ReplyDeleteI also want to try the face mist :) x
DeleteHaven't picked up a thing lately. But I have tried the Revlon lip stains, which some people say are as good as/better than Clinique Chubby Sticks. I'm not convinced, but they are nice.
ReplyDeleteI'm interested to know how you like the Shiseido cleanser.
