Overview: PINCHme (Australia)

PINCHme is an Australian website that anyone can signup to and receive free samples to try and review. 

From their website (sums up what they do really well) 
"PINCHme gives you the unique opportunity to discover exciting new products and try them for free. It's simple - you choose a product from one of our leading brands, and we'll deliver it to your home or workplace for free. Once you've tried, tasted or touched the exciting products on offer, you can leave your feedback. It’s that easy!

Samples are released to the PINCHme Homepage on varying weeks, and we announce on Facebook and Twitter when the samples are available to claim. We also release Surprise Samples at different times, to different target groups. If you are part of the chosen target group for a Surprise Sample, you will receive a special email."

Once you've signed up you can start earning points by ordering samples, giving your feedback, visiting the site etc. There are 5 levels to get through. I'm not going to explain all the levels, but I will say that once you reach level 5 you are eligible to "receive a $25 gift card for every additional 100,000 Pinching points you earn". But to get to level 5 you need to obtain 300,000 points so it will take some time. 

Samples you can choose from include shampoos, conditioners, deodorants, pet food items, food samples etc. In terms of the size of the samples they are not silly foil packets that you only get one use. The sizes are actually quite generous you can get about 3-5 uses out of the samples (enough to actually form an opinion). I think it's a great way to try things for free and as an added bonus you occasionally get sent coupons with the items...big thumbs up for that. And not to mention it's all FREE.

Now be warned sometimes they run out of popular samples so there will be times where samples are out of stock so be quick or just wait till the next time samples are released (every 2 weeks).

Haul: Mecca

Honestly you're probably sick of seeing hauls on my blog right? But I just love hauls.  First...story time. I seriously can't remember where I first saw it but when I did, I knew I had to have it.  The colours were so beautiful, the packaging was so chic and the value for money was just too good. Plus with Mecca now trying to compete with Sephora (coming soon to Australia) I knew the Australian price would be somewhat reasonable.  It is...wait for it...the Nars Virtual Domination Cheek palette.  First I tried buying it off spacenk which is an England based company (if I'm not mistaken) but sadly they don't ship Nars products to Australia (what a bummer). Then I was looking up reviews to determine if this was something I really really really wanted. And so the obsession began. I sussed out when it was coming to Australia then stalked the Mecca page for about 4-5 days (not even gonna lie), it finally popped up and I added it straight to my cart, clicked buy, and so th

Review: wotnot Natural Organic Facial Wipes

For a long time you could only buy the wotnot facial wipes online. But you can now find them in Priceline for $7.99 or with the travel case (like shown above) for $9.99. While it is very pricey for make-up wipes, personally I think it is so worth it. If in doubt wait for the 40% off skincare sale. Some important things to note, these wipes are: "Certified organic pink grapefruit and petitgrain Certified organic papaya (pawapaw) Certified organic rosehip 100% natural and biodegradable fibre Free from alcohol and artificial perfumes Free from parabens and petrochemicals Ideal for sensitive skin" The wipes are large, moist and very refreshing. They have an earthy type smell which is not off putting...I swear. So don't be afraid if you're sensitive to smells. Not only are these wipes made up of amazing ingredients but they do the job and do it well. I wear light to medium make-up on my face and more medium-heavy eye make-up. And I find that the

Haul: Europe Trip - Germany and England

Now onto part 2 of my European haul. My next stop was Germany. I didn't get much time to shop here however I did see a lot of cites. I went to Dusseldorf, Berlin, Frankfurt and Cologne. It is a beautiful city lots of trees and scenery... if you're into that (which I am).   Douglas 1. Lancome Visionnaire Advanced Multi-Correcting Cream (sample) 2. Misslyn Rich Colour Gloss in 25 Papaya Sorbet -  €6.99 (approx. $10.98) Last but not least was London. My God is this city amazing. It has a SPECTACULAR history and the shopping was A-MAZING. I will definitely be going back to London.  Debenhams 3. Urban Decay Naked Palette -  £37 (approx. $70.75) I know it's bloody expensive. But I got this on my second last day. Plus with money to spare, and my lusting after this product I got it. And I don't regret it one bit.  Topshop 4. Topshop Lip Bullet in Covet -  £8  (approx. $15.29) Boots 5.
