Took advantage of a few different beauty offers this week. I used my Amarya discount to pick up the Dr. Hauschka Cleansing Clay Mask. I recently bought the steam bath which I really like using on its own, but it says for best results to use in conjuncture with this mask. Amarya also sent me a Quince Day cream to try. Although the Dr. Hauschka site advises against people with oilier skin types using this I will give it a go anway to see what its like. They also sent me a Weleda skin food sample to try. I've used a few Weleda samples now and really like them, may pick up some full sizes to try soon. 
I also took advantage of The Latest In Beauty 50% discount on BioEffect Serum which is a personal favourite of mine (reviewed here). With this I picked up a Lola Rose hand cream and a BalmBalm bath oil, both of which I've never tried before, and another Aromatherapy Associates bath oil (need to get a full size of this I love it!). I also thought it was about time I tried another of the mini beauty boxes (which I first reviewed here ). The idea behind this box is that you pick 3 samples of a set list for free and only pay by text for the postage amount (£1.50). I picked a Melvita sachet sample, the Caudalie Premier Cru Set and the "mystery" sample which turned out to be an Aveda conditioner! Considering you only have to pay £1.50 I think those four items are really good value for money, especially as only one was a sachet sample. The choices change all the time but you are limited to ordering only one box per month. If you haven't tried this service I'd recommend giving it ago if only once. 
The next set of items I ordered came from Bath & Unwind. They emailed me with a money voucher to use on the site so I decide to try something new that I hadn't heard much about. I decided to go with a Korres Wild Rose Brightening Mask. I just bought the Wild Rose moisturiser and thought this would be great to use with it, plus I'm always up for trying a new face mask. This mask is only small but it's a great size for trial use/ travelling. Korres is a brand I'm really interested in and want to try a few more products from. I also noticed when I was browsing that the Elemental Herbology body oil was FREE! That's right totally free, reduced from £30 to nothing. I'm not sure why it was free but I wasn't about to let a freebie get away and quickly added it to my order. I really love Elemental Herbology and want to try some more of their bath and body products anyway. This oil smells so fresh and clean and comes in a lovely glass bottle. I'm really looking forward to trying it. Best of all the site offers points for purchases that you can turn into money off discounts (like Amarya). I saw lots of things I intend to order next time. 
Lastly I receieved another year supply of Bath & Body Works products to add to my lifetime stash. I love Bath & Body Works products so much and I'm so sad they dont have stores in the UK (although you can get them on ebay here). At my request this set of minis was brought back to me from USA (USA Holiday Inns carry Bath & Body Works products FYI). This range is my favourite, the shampoo is amazing and smells heavenly. I can't wait to be back in USA in a few months to stock up on all my favourites again.
