Free Benefit Lipgloss

[sambibabe]

I bought Vogue Australia December issue today and it contained a free, full size Benefit lipgloss (or mascara, if you don't want the lipgloss)! So if you spend $8 on the magazine, you will get a free product of $32-$35 value. You get a choice of three different 'her glossiness' shades - pink (04)/clear-mother of pearl shimmer(01) or peach (02 or 03 I am not sure) or 'get bent lash mascara'. The magazine also has a coupon for Benefit cosmetics lovers - if you spend over $100, you will receive a Lana brush set! I think it is a fantastic issue with a fabulous freebie

lol.. And I thought the weird smell only comes with pink
It is very pretty pink, but the smell reminds me of umm.. old, dampy kitchen cloth that has been soaked in some kind of berry detergent?
It took me awhile to get used to MAC lipstick smell (especially the early edition ones), so hopefully I get used to this too..

Here is more info her glossiness : Benefit Cosmetics

I got both the peach and the pink in an English magazine a few months back, and I had purchased the pink before and used it all up. XD

I got the mother of pearl shade and it's nice, though practically clear. The shimmer doesn't show up for me. I agree that the smell is weird. Like a plasticky, strong lychee thing. All Benefit glosses have that though, I think.

hmm.. well.. BeneFit has their own scents 'trademark' i guess..... ^^

I don't have a problem with the current MAC lipsticks, but the old ones (the silver casing lipsticks)eekk..

Benefit Dandelion has lovely scent and 'The gloss' lipglosses are okay too.. I also heard others saying Dr Feelgood is pukey, but I don't mind it
