On Thursday I was in the train station newsagents, buying a Diet Coke for the journey, when I spotted the Elle magazine with a free mascara.
I've really wanted to try something from the new Soap and Glory cosmetic range, the only reason that I haven't got around to it is because I got a points voucher, with my huge soap and glory Christmas case, and every time I look at the things in store I think to myself, 'I'll just wait until I have my voucher with me'.
The Soap and Glory Thick and Fast mascara retails for £10 and the magazine is £3.90 so I made a saving of £7, and got a magazine to read too!
The first thing that I want to say is that I will definitely be repurchasing it. It's fantastic.
The wand is absolutely huge with really thick bristles which give my eyelashes so much volume and lift and even with just one coat the effect is dramatic. With a couple of coats I can achieve, a much desired, doe eye effect. The only thing is that the formula is quite thick so I just had to take a little care not to get big clumps in my eyelashes!
Now I'm really tempted to try more of the range, and thanks to Elle I have a £2 voucher!
