UK Magazine Freebies This Month

UK magazines are great at giving away freebies and there are lots to choose from in the July issues. I limited myself to 2 magazines. Company is giving away a lovely little makeup bag with 3 designs to choose from. It costs £2.50. Glamour is at the special price of £1 and is giving away various items of makeup. You can choose between lipgloss, eye liner, lip liner and mascara. I chose the eyeliner. The makeup is by cult beauty brand Model Co which I've never heard of but am willing to try.

I hope you get the freebies you want this month xx

Clinique Chubby Stick Shadow Tint For Eyes Review

Clinique have had a Chubby Stick range for lips for a while now.  These are beautiful glossy colours which are easily applied to the lips.  Quite a number of years ago I remember the original Chubby Stick formula which was more of a lipstick in a chubby pencil form.  I still have one to this day but that is another story!

The most natural progression from this was to make one for eyes (in my humble opinion).  So very recently they released their Chubby Stick Shadow Tint for eyes.  Of course I was eager to try these out so at the first hint of a Bonus Time I was off to my Clinique counter in a flash.

The result was that I purchased the Clinique Chubby Stick Shadow Tint For Eyes in the colour 03 Fuller Fudge.

The colour is beautiful and great for someone like me who has blue eyes.

The formula is creamy and so easy to apply and blend.  The size of the end of the pencil (remember it's chubby) makes it really easy to create a nice feline shape of shadow on the lid.  It's very easy to blend with fingers or a brush.

My only complaint would be that it's not as long lasting as I would like and I have had to touch it up from day to night.  However, I can live with that problem.  Heck, it means I use more, and will therefore require a further purchase sooner rather than later.  A great excuse to try another colour.  Score!!

They do come in a wide range of colours.  12 to be exact so you'll have a hard time choosing.  I have since been back and bought Ample Amber which is also beautiful but has more of a bronze colour to it.  

You can by these at your local Clinique counter or from their website here

They cost £16 each and are definitely a big hit with me.
