Free Nails Inc. With InStyle

I seem to have quite a collection of Nails Inc. polishes, yet I’ve never purchased a single one at full RRP! Most of my collection has come from free gifts with magazines and I was over the moon to spot another freebie this month with InStyle.

There are three shades to choose from, but as I’m (supposed to be) on a spending ban this month, I only picked up one shade (booo) – Sao Paulo Streets. I’m not sure of the names of the other two shades, but there is a pink and a coral red that both look lovely.

Sao Paulo Streets is a lovely mink nude with a subtle lilac undertone, very grown-up and understated. As with all Nails Inc. polishes application is a breeze and you’re guaranteed at least a few days wear before chipping.

Have you picked up one of the three Nails Inc. shades from InStyle yet?

Totally hell bent for a quick magazine freebie pick me up.

Free REN skincare set with InStyle Magazine

Ren skincare trio with Instyle

I have been all over the magazine freebies this month, I got 3/4 of the L’Occitane hand creams with Marie Claire, I picked up another Eyeko Skinny Mini eyeliner from Glamour, and this morning I picked up this mini REN skincare trio with Instyle!

The mini set includes Evercalm Gentle Cleaning MilkVita mineral Active 7 Eye Gel and Evercalm Global Protection Day Cream and is worth £12 so a real bargain!

My main reason for grabbing it (other than only costing £2!) was that I needed in particular a travel size eye cream to go in my gigging toiletry bag as I used my last one up in Leeds on Saturday.

I like to pick up miniatures wherever I can so that my gig-day bag isn’t loaded down with loads of full size products. Usually I take my make-up off as soon as we hit the road, as wearing full stage make-up for any longer than necessary isn’t good for my skin at all, and also because I usually end up nodding off if it’s a long journey and I hate sleeping in my make-up!

All three of these look ideal for taking on the road, and I absolutely love the ethos of purity in Ren Skincare, especially after a sweaty night in heavy make-up!

Totally hellbent for all things tiny.
