Estee Lauder GPW @ David Jones

Apologies for the late post, it has been sooo cold and soooo busy! So why not treat yourselves to a great gift with purchase at David Jones?

I must apologise twofold. I was too cold after work on Friday to walk down to DJs and see the stats on this GWP. I have tried to show you what the gift amounts to in terms of $ so you have a better idea, but unfortunately I haven't been able to. But anyway, it looks like a good one if you have a normal complexion and skin colour.



As you can see, we have sample sized products which can give you a great idea of how it will work on your skin tone.

PS. There are never too many mini mascaras in your beauty case. I have gone many a year without buying mascara cos of great GWPs!

My Estée Lauder GWP

Just so you know that I am true to my word, I went out today and put my hands on my Estée Lauder Gift with Purchase at Priceline Pharmacy in Lilydale.

I ended up purchasing the Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II. Getting to the bottom of the bottle of Clarins Santal Oil, I thought I would try out a competitor. As I was tossing up between this and the Clarins Double Serum,  I did my research and decided to give Estée Lauder a try. As per the details on the website, Estée Lauder claims that the serum is ...'Tested and proven: Advanced Night Repair dramatically reduces the look of all key signs of ageing.' I'll let you know how it goes.

Now for my haul of goodies:

The Advanced Night Repair is front and centre, the freebies are as follows:

1. Perfectionist (CP+R) 7ml (30ml bottle $115)
2. Resilience Lift Firming Sculpting Eye Creme 5ml (15ml pot $98... they were generous with the 5ml!)
3. Resilience Lift Firming Sculpting Face and Neck Creme SPF15 15ml (50ml pot $150)
4. Modern Muse Body Lotion 30ml (200ml bottle $75)
5. Pure Gloss Colour in Plum Divine FULL SIZE (retails at $42!!) and the colour is divine!
6. Sumptuous Extreme Mascara Extreme Black 2.8ml (full size retails at $52)
7. Modern Muse EDP vial 2.9ml vial (30ml bottle $85)
8. Cosmetics Bag... I don't think they can put a value on this...

But Wait.... There's More!!!

My very generous Priceline Pharmacy Lilydale Sales Assistant, apart from thinking that I was too young to be buying the Advanced Night Repair (bless), threw in the following extras :

9. Advanced Night Repair Synchronized Recovery Complex II 7ml (30ml bottle $95)
10. Advanced Night Repair Eye Synchronized Recovery Complex II 5ml (15ml pot $95)

As far as  GWP goes, this one was pretty good, a travel sized mascara is always welcome in my makeup bag(s) and I love the full sized lip gloss, a great Winter colour. The best thing about this GWP is that I get to try out a couple of ranges of specialised skincare products without forking out my hard earned... well I guess I did for the Advanced Night Repair, but I did need a replacement for my Santal Oil. It's true, really, I did!

 

So make your way down to Priceline Lilydale Pharmacy and take advantage of this great offer and the awesome staff (tell them I sent you!)

Clarins GWP at Myer

Winter has certainly arrived and it seems the department stores know exactly what to do to chase away the winter blues...give us free stuff! With the Clarins GWP finishing this weekend at David Jones, Myer is hot on their heels with a similar yet slightly different version.

Clarins Gift Time is "officially" running From Sunday, 5 July 2015 (Myer in the CBD has already started, eager to catch people on Friday night spending sprees) through to Sunday, 19 July 2015.

Again, with the purchase of two items, (one being skincare - yes I agree, skincare is of utmost importance) you can choose either the Hydrating or Invigorating Gift.

The nice surprise in my mailbox this evening!

Apologies for the low quality scan, but I thought it worth seeing what is in both gifts. In case you like it laid out in a nice, orderly fashion (like I do, I hate it when the words seem to run into eachother), the contents of both gifts are as follows:

 

Hydrating Gift:

1. Extra-Comfort Cleansing Cream 50ml (a 200ml tube retails at $48)
2. Extra-Firming Body Lotion 100ml (a 200ml tube retails at $68)
3. Beauty Flash Balm 30ml (a 200ml tube retails at $55)
4. Hydra-Quench Cream 30ml (a 50ml jar retails at $55)
5. Tonic Body Treatment Oil 30ml (a 100ml bottle retails at $62)
6. Instant Light Natural Lip Perfector No.06 5ml (a 12ml tube retails at $26)

 Invigorating Gift:

1. Gentle Refiner Exfoliating Cream 30ml (a 50ml tube retails at $45)
2. Moisture-Rich Body Lotion 100ml (a 200ml tube retails at $50)
3. Exfoliating Body Scrub for Smooth Skin 100ml (a 200ml tube retails at $45)
4. Hand and Nail Treatment Cream 50ml (a 100ml tube retails at $38)
5. Beauty Flash Balm 30ml  (a 200ml tube retails at $55)

As you can see, there is one less product in the Invigorating Gift and the products seem to be worth a little less, but weigh up what you think you will use the most. Nothing worse than great skincare going off... we all know what that smells like!

All in all, I think I prefer the Gift from David Jones, just because I really like the hydrating mask. However, I am thinking of double dipping and getting the Estée Lauder GWP at Priceline and the Clarins at Myer.

Yes, I am incorrigible.

Have I tempted you all yet with this bevy of bargains?? Would love to know your thoughts!

Estée Lauder Gift with Purchase (GWP)

This is for all of you who live in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne.

The Priceline pharmacy in Lilydale used to be a normal pharmacy but kept the more up market cosmetics side of the store, and for good reason. Whilst stocking the well known brands of cosmetics, they certainly draw me in from time to time with their department store cosmetic ranges and a Gift with Purchase which is always a little different than what you will find at Myers or David Jones.

This month we are treated to a great GWP for the purchase of $70 or more from the range. Available from 28 June to 12 July 2015, you can be treated to the following gift with purchase :

The gift encloses the following:

1. Perfectionist (CP+R) 7ml
2. Resilience Lift Firming Sculpting Eye Creme 5ml
3. Resilience Lift Firming Sculpting Face and Neck Creme SPF15 15ml
4. Modern Muse Body Lotion 30ml
5. Pure Gloss Colour in Plum Divine
6. Sumptuous Extreme Mascara Extreme Black 2.8ml
7. Modern Muse EDP vial 2.9ml vial
8. Cosmetics Bag

Enjoy!
